How can I... forget you?
A few days ago, I came to this movie theater that we used to come to. Unexpectedly, you came with her, too. It seems that you are living happily now. Does she take good care of you?
"When you saw me, with a slightly embarrassed smile, you said to me, 'Long time no see.'". And I, as always, pretended to be strong, said a big hello, and then turned around to leave
We were together in high school.
I am naturally competitive and want to be first in everything. I enjoy a challenging life. And you, with a gentle personality, pursue the natural way of doing things, and like a plain, flowing life.
I will always remember that sunny weekend when you held my hand and said, "You like me, you will prove that two people with completely different personalities can also be happy together.". The firm promise of my student days made me believe that this is the best love.
In this way, we passed the college entrance examination together, went to the same city to go to college, and we also grew up... The promises we made in the innocent years seem to be suitable for staying in the most youthful era, and it's too difficult to live by it through our lives
After graduating from college, I went to work in an advertising company. In order to get a promotion and raise my salary, my focus of life was entirely on work. "You said watching a movie, I said next time. I have to hurry up with a plan.". You said let's go on a trip, I said next time, I don't have time for vacation. I forgot your birthday last year, too. I remembered it the next day. This is how I spend more time at work than with you. Our feelings have gradually faded, and every day is just a formulaic greeting. I originally thought that love was like a career, and there would always be a low point, and it would be okay to get through it.
But half a year ago, you said goodbye to me, you said you fell in love with someone else
"At that time, I was stunned and said to you with a bit of a lump in my throat: I thought when I became better, you would be proud of me, and you would love me even more.". How long have you only known each other? Is it true that our relationship for so many years cannot match her for a few months? At this moment, you slowly took my hand and looked at me with the gentle gaze you had not seen for a long time. You said, "You are very good, but now I have found that the things I pursue are different, and it is destined that you and I will become people in different worlds.". She is just an ordinary girl, but she will cook porridge for me when I am sick, comfort me when I am lost, find my unhappiness, and listen to my complaints patiently
Later, I couldn't hear clearly.
But what is clear is that she knows more about how to love you than I do, and the gentle look in her eyes can't be matched by her bitter pleadings. I don't want to tangle up anymore. Since I've met someone who understands you, let's be together.
Perhaps you never knew that the future I imagined would always have you. Some things I always thought I could say again next time, but originally you have gradually walked away
Dear, please allow me to call you that for the last time
Thank you for your tolerance and care for me over the years, and you don't have to feel sorry for me. We've loved each other before, that's enough!
"I'm doing okay now, even when I'm quiet, memories are always raging and rolling. Fortunately, there are tears that can dilute every time I miss you..."
The depth of love comes from its clumsiness, its inability to speak, and its appearance is not stunning. We often turn around too early and forget to feel its soft smell, sweet taste, and heartbeat.
