DEDICATION

To every soul who has ever waited for love across miles, battles, and silences — this story is for you.

For those who have watched the seasons change while holding on to a promise,

who have written letters that may never be read,

and whispered prayers into the quiet of the night, believing that love would hear them somehow.

For the dreamers who loved beyond reason,

and for the brave who carried love through storms of duty and distance.

For every teacher who planted hope in others,

and every soldier who learned that even courage needs a place to rest.

May you find in these pages a reminder —

that love, no matter how far it wanders, never truly fades.

It lingers in memories, in soft goodbyes,

and in the promise that some hearts are destined to find their way back home. 💫
