The Door You Didn’t Open

There was a door.

Not a special one.

Not glowing. Not magical.

Just… a normal door.

And yet, it stayed in Nam’s mind for years.

It was back when he was younger—standing in a quiet hallway, holding a piece of paper in his hand. On the other side of that door was an opportunity. A chance to apply, to try, to step into something new.

But he didn’t open it.
