She was now alone in her apartment. Same as she was six years ago, but a presence was missing, something that she knew, but had forgotten.

A feeling of emptiness had wailed her heart, a feeling of something that she knew was missing from her life.

However, what she didn't notice was the Polaroid photo of her and Gray under the newspaper she just placed, erased from her memories and long forgotten.
