   He, who had long plotted to seize power through force and madness, tormented her with unrequited love on campus. How humble can one be when loving someone? So humble that she sat below him, heartbroken, watching his promised wedding next year with the school beauty as her bride, nameless and without status. She loved him, suffering through countless summers she couldn't count. She had a crush on him, loving him from the moment she opened her eyes—her childhood sweetheart. From childhood, she dared not confess her feelings, afraid of losing a friend. To love someone is to be able to stay by their side as a friend. To be in the same school as him, she studied tirelessly, even if it meant getting the lowest score, just to be near him and catch a glimpse of him was enough to make her happy. When he mocked her for being last, she wasn't angry; instead, she congratulated and envied him for being first. Until her wealthy roommate, the school beauty, appeared as a rival, and she began... Her life seemed precarious; it appeared he no longer belonged to her. The school beauty asked her to deliver a love letter, which he mistook for a confession. The trampled letter shattered her unrequited love, leaving her heartbroken. She feigned amnesia, wanting to be brave once more, and experienced unprecedented happiness. His true feelings were revealed until he discovered she had deceived him, faking amnesia. She was abandoned. His promise to marry her next year turned into a reality on this day next year when she received his engagement invitation. Her heart was in turmoil; she stubbornly refused to attend, yet still went, consumed by unspoken jealousy. Then, in even greater despair, she attended his wedding with the school beauty. She was supposed to be the one wearing the wedding dress, but why, while she was in agony, did he propose to her at the wedding with the school beauty's ring?
