The day I sent my fiancé to jail, I dug through the junk bin and found a bunch of glass beads.
Each one is engraved with the same word: read.
There is a photo next to the bead, and there is a line of words written on the back of the photo -
"The third time, she still didn't recognize me."
I was stunned.
Because the person in the photo is the childhood sweetheart that I have been annoyed by since I was a child and have never looked at him in the eyes.
But he disappeared three years ago.
I called his number, but it was empty. Go to his house, there's no one there. When I asked his parents, they handed me three letters with red eyes.
The first one read: "For the first time, I was her escort. It was worth it."
The second letter read: "The second time, I was her bodyguard. It was worth it."
The third letter read: "The third time, I was the farthest stranger from her side. It was still worth it."
I read the last line of the letter over and over again:
"In the fourth life, it's you who come to me. Don't make me wait too long."
I rushed out of the house like crazy.
But there were people coming and going on the street, but there was no face that belonged to him.
Until I looked down and saw the bead in my hand——
It's glowing.
