En: The hallway lights were dim, and the chill of winter crept in through the windows.

Ja: 看護師の雪は病棟を歩きながら、自分の足音が静かに響くのを聞いた。

En: However, recent strange occurrences had unsettled her heart.

Ja: 「雪さん、今夜も来ると思います」と春人は静かに言った。彼の目は真剣だった。
En: "Yuki-san, I think he'll come again tonight," Haruto said quietly, his eyes earnest.

Ja: 雪は微笑みながらも、心の中では不安が増していた。
En: Yuki, while smiling, felt the anxiety growing inside her.

Ja: 「大丈夫よ。ただの夢でしょう」と答えたが、自分でもその言葉を信じられなかった。
En: "It's okay, it's just a dream," she answered, yet she couldn't believe her own words.

Ja: その夜、雪は真実を確かめるために春人の部屋に泊まることにした。
En: That night, Yuki decided to stay in Haruto's room to ascertain the truth.

Ja: 彼女は狭いベッドの隅に座り、暗闇を見つめた。
En: She sat at the corner of the narrow bed, staring into the darkness.

Ja: 部屋には時計の音だけが響いていた。
En: The only sound in the room was the ticking of a clock.

Ja: しかし、夜が深まると、冷たい風が部屋を包み、不思議な静けさが広がった。
En: However, as the night deepened, a cold wind enveloped the room, spreading an eerie silence.

Ja: 突然、知らない感覚が雪を包んだ。
En: Suddenly, Yuki was engulfed by an unfamiliar sensation.

Ja: 目の前に亡くなった父が立っていた。
En: Her deceased father stood before her.

Ja: 「お父さん」と雪は叫びたかったが、声が出なかった。
En: She wanted to cry out, "Father," but no sound came.

Ja: 彼の笑顔は生きていた時と同じで、温かかった。
En: His smile was as warm as it was when he was alive.

Ja: 「雪、お前を誇りに思う」と父は言った。
En: "Yuki, I'm proud of you," her father said.

Ja: そして、彼はふっと消えた。
En: And then, he vanished.

Ja: 朝になり、雪は静かに目を開けた。
