I Found You, Didn't I? by ZakielParien2007 at Inkitt

Story Notes

Hey there, readers!

I’m Zakiel — or you can call me Akano Kiyo.

Welcome to my little corner of storytelling. I’m just a writer with a heart full of characters and a mind spinning with stories I can’t wait to share with you.

Before you dive in, there’s something I want you to know: my stories might take a few chapters to really unfold. Things won’t always make sense right away, but trust me — every scene, every word has a reason. All I ask is for a little patience as the world, characters, and emotions come to life.

I promise to keep things meaningful, avoid unnecessary fluff, and do my best to make the journey worth it.

So grab a seat, take a breath, and step into the story.

Let’s begin. 🌙

Summary

Lin An has spent the past six years quietly rebuilding his life—new town, new name, no past. He keeps his head down, avoids attention, and never asks questions he doesn't want answered. Then An Ran transfers into his school. She’s familiar in a way that makes his chest tighten. Graceful, distant, and sharp-eyed, she steps into his world like a ripple through still water. She shouldn’t know him. Not anymore. But she looks at him like she does. And suddenly, Lin An’s carefully constructed life begins to crumble. Who left who behind? Who changed first? And why does it feel like they’re still holding onto a story that never ended? As memories stir and truths unravel, Lin An must face what he’s been running from—and the girl who might have always known how to find him.

THE RETURN

I have lived in this town for years—six, to be exact—

nestled in my grandmother’s home,

studying for the future,

working to cover the little extra life demands.

Everything was fine.

No—everything was more than fine. It was peaceful.

Until she appeared.

It took only a heartbeat to know—

Those dark, sharp eyes were impossible to forget.

And just like that,

the quiet I had built began to splinter.

Why did she have to appear?

Why here, of all places?

I never wanted her in my world again…

Yet there she stood, right beside me.
