Short but very effective. Simply amazing.

Excellent you captured his escence perfectly! The last line literally made me shed a tear! Perfect!

I loved this piece, Nagia. It was solemn and sad in the way it showed Vincent's dilemma: he's the unmoving grain in the hourglass, the man who stands still in time. I think you portrayed that best by describing the aging of all those around him who he cared about.

Perhaps the fact that his days consisted of repetitive daily routines made it worse; with these things staying the same, it made all the world's changes painfully blatant.

And for some reason, writing the short story in second person made it all the more powerful.

Excellent work for something so short.

That last line almost killed me. It's ahrd to think of Vincent being alone, even after Red. The reflections on the others are short and sad. Enjoyed it a lot. :)
