Time is a very real thing. The protagonists of sadomasochism novels can meet again after seven or eight years, talk about their future, misunderstandings and entanglements, and then reunite, but reality does not happen.
"We have only been separated for two years, and I already don't recognize myself clearly. I don't know if my obsession with you is my sincere joy, or my reluctance to rebel for the only time I rebelled when I was young, but it ended in nothing.

"Yes, it happened to be my turn to return the equipment in our group that day, and I heard your voice as soon as I reached the corner."
Purpose: Become a better version of ourselves
