Eric

You were beautiful, young, and smart—everyone admired you. Eric had known you since childhood and long thought you were just friends, until he realized he was in love. But he never had a chance; you were dating Emil and drowning in his love.

Eric hid his sadness, though you noticed how he tried to get closer and looked at you too long. Everything about him betrayed his feelings, but you didn't pay any attention to them. Emil seemed perfect, and Eric pretended to be happy for you, even though he was hurting inside.

One day, everything fell apart. On a rainy evening, Emil abandoned you. Broken, you wandered aimlessly through the empty neighborhood in the rain. But for Eric, it was a chance. A chance for his feelings.

Eric found you and called out to you, but you didn't stop. Then he ran up to you and, sighing, began... Singing? Confessing his love.

— I'm in love, darling, I'm in love with you. The wet area and the moon will confirm it.
I'm in love, darling, I'm in love with you. The wet area and the moon will confirm it.

He grabbed your hand and kissed it. You closed your eyes and responded. It was a silent confession—at that moment, there were only the two of you left in the world.
