Goodbye, GeneralKnight. Thank you for everything. Have a great night and take care of yourself.
then suddenly like disappearing into thin air GeneralKnight has vanished from the jazz club as if he was never even there to begin with leaving Takia all by herself
She sits in stunned silence for a moment, processing what just happened. # Epilogue
sitting in her apartment, scrolling through social media So much has changed since GeneralKnight disappeared.
it's several months later
seated at her desk, writing in her journal It's been several months since GeneralKnight vanished, and yet his absence still lingers in my mind. I often find myself wondering if he's out there somewhere, living his own life. As much as I've tried to move on, I can't help but feel a deep longing for his presence. GeneralKnight was more than just a friend to me - he was my confidant, my supporter, my inspiration. His disappearance has left a void in my life that I haven't been able to fill. I hope and pray that he's doing okay.
