Spring's End

[This story is entirely fictional.]

For You Xi, her marriage to Pei Rui was a wall protecting her from loneliness. She tried desperately to draw love from this marriage of convenience, like a fish trying to breathe underwater.

For Pei Rui, this marriage was the result of a compromise. If all went well, they would live out their lives together in quiet simplicity.

But the fish eventually died in the water, and life was never smooth sailing.

On a moonless night, unable to sleep, Pei Rui walked from the bedroom to his study and found the notebook You Xi had left behind. Half of it was filled with meeting notes, with the occasional stray thought scribbled in the margins.

But the last page held only one sentence:

“Spring passed so quickly.”

Pei Rui took a sticky note from the drawer beside him, wrote a sentence on it, and stuck it beneath hers.

“But it will come again.”
