Fourteen Mysteries: When the Other Shore Blooms

Other people’s youthful recklessness is their most embarrassing past, but ours is the most genuine feeling we can look back on with pride. Young and naive, we were arrogant, convinced the world was no bigger than what we could see. Adults always said, “What do kids know about love?” But back then, we never said the word love, yet every word we spoke was love. That kind of purity is something we never found again. This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental. Please do not imitate.
