My past is mine

A man who once remembered vivid color wakes to a world reduced to black, white, and gray, while his memory still preserves chromatic detail. Disturbed, he recounts the night it happened—entering a film he had known in color only to find the screen and the street drained of hue—and begins searching for others who might share or explain the loss. On a train he encounters another traveler whose apparent unfamiliarity with color hints at a different past, prompting cautious exchange. The story probes how altered memory and perception affect identity, solitude, and the ordinary anchors of experience.
