Chapter 4 | “The New Language of Love”

 

The Voice Behind the Door

I stood before the door, my hand hovering near the handle, but I couldn't bring myself to push it.

From within came a faint sound — not quite words, more like a melody, a call, awakening something I hadn’t felt in a long time. I could hear my heartbeat, like an ancient drum echoing faintly in time with the music.

“Go in,” a gentle voice whispered inside me.

It wasn’t external. It came from deep within — a part of my soul speaking to me.

I slowly opened the door.

There was no blinding light, no dramatic reveal. Just silence. Stillness. At the center of the room stood a small circular pool. The water was so calm it reflected my face clearly — except it wasn’t quite my face.

It was… another version of me.
Calmer. Clearer. Softer.

She looked at me and smiled.

“Welcome back.”

I didn’t say a word. But tears streamed down my face.
I knew I had found a piece of myself I had long forgotten.

This room was more than a doorway into memory — it was a passage home.
I didn’t yet know all that lay ahead, but I knew this: I had stepped into a different path.

And that voice — it was still singing.
Not an ending, but a beginning.
