Listening to the Wind

A rich girl with heart disease and her depressed deskmate

Bad ending

This story spans a long period of time. I originally wanted to write a passionate love story, but in the end I settled on a gentle farewell as the closing note.

As the saying goes, death isn't the end of life. Being forgotten is.

I can never get the ending right, especially when it's tragic. The year they eloped to Qing City, I wanted to make it more romantic, but I was afraid I might change the ending. I've always wanted to have an imperfect story.

The story isn't especially heartbreaking overall, and it even has some flaws. I'm a complete mess when it comes to story logic, but I really do love this story.

At the end of the story: a woman dressed in black, a kitten, a cold tombstone, a yellowed photograph, and snow remembered from the past.
