The Night Wanderer

◆ Third-person narration / Tragedy

One day after work, I found a strange man in my home.

He appeared without warning, paid off my debts, cooked for me,

and shielded me from the malicious stares of others.

But then he left without a word and never came back.

"The dark of night is a lonely world,

wandering through the city beneath the night sky,

choosing to be forgotten in the moonlight,

like a soul returning home at night, lost and without direction."

---Xu Meijing, "All Night Wanderers"
