I Once Loved Solitude, Until I Had You

This book is also known as "That Is Love"

In my mind, filled with romantic clichés, confession, proposal, and marriage are the three moments that a woman should cherish throughout her life, and they should be so romantic that even when reminiscing about them in old age, one can still be moved to tears.

However, art is always above life

June 13, 2003, I remember this date very clearly, because that day was my birthday

The prolonged outbreak of SARS lasting over two months, along with the impending graduation, has enveloped the entire campus in a heavy atmosphere of parting.

I was overwhelmed by the heavy atmosphere to the limit, and in a moment of impulse, I invited him to the bar for drinks

In a slight state of inebriation, I said to him: "Now we are about to part ways, and I just want to hear you clearly say to me: you do not like me, and you never have... then I can let go..."

After a brief silence, he said: "What if I were to say... that I like it?"

Ah

I have liked you for a long time

You, why didn't you tell me earlier

You don't know? I thought I had made it clear enough

I have a headache, I drank too much, and my mind is a bit foggy. I just can't understand why he only acts without speaking when he likes someone.

Many years later, when I had a profound understanding of him down to the marrow, I finally understood

He never says he loves me, but no matter what it is, as long as I can express it, he is able to accomplish it
