After graduating college, I found myself having to sever ties with people and moments. It was a period in my life where I had to confront various complex emotions that I didn't know how to handle. So, I found this transformative period a rather interesting topic to explore, especially since it is a universal experience. I decided to frame the story around a relationship (Platonic or romantic. It's really up to interpretation) to convey this feeling of loss and detachment.
