Echoes

In the endless theater of the Milky Way, stars are born, burn, and collapse. Most planets are loyal spectators—until the curtain falls, and their sun devours them whole. It is a script written billions of times over.But one world refused to follow. Its name is Halla. A forbidden planet. A survivor. Where countless orbits have ended in fire, Halla still circles its dying star—Baekdu, swollen and crimson, burning helium instead of hope. According to every law we know, Halla sho

Near the supermarket, she hides a loaf of bread beneath a blanket, beside a trash bin that smells of yesterday’s meals. A passerby glances with pity, but pity does not feed a child.
