When he's normal, he feels unworthy of her and deliberately distances himself for fear of burdening her. The contrast is striking.

Finally, on a rainy day, he knelt on the ground, begging her not to leave him. The overall writing style is melancholic, told from a first-person perspective, realistically recounting the story and touching the heartstrings.
