Is letting go what love means? Maybe it is.
He stubbornly left her for the sake of her future and cut off all contact with her.
Unable to find him, she nearly went mad. Her depression flared up, and she tried to kill herself.
After being rescued, she found someone who looked a lot like him.
They spent two peaceful years together, but then even the substitute fell out of love.
He returned to the country, and after they reconciled for a while,
she disappeared.
He never married. Then one day, a friend told him she was dead. He held her diary and read it again and again.
Maybe she could be reborn. If they had another chance, would they choose each other again? Yes.
But there is no such thing as being reborn, and no chance to start over. It is nothing but endless fantasies after death.
