In that previous world, I had no one to celebrate these birthdays and I don't even remember what day was my birthday back then.
Days just passed with normal work, personal work, and commissions.
There was nothing much in those black and white, colorless days aside from a crimson presence of regular blood.
That darkness inside has almost faded away with the love and affection I have received from the awesome people I have met in this life but, grandma knew and she tried her best to erase that darkness.
She is the reason I am a better human being now, even though I don't like calling myself one.
It still exists, in the deep dark corner of this warm heart, suppressed by her teachings. My desire to protect my family, and now... maybe also to be with this foolish witch.
