The woman sat by the hospital bed and began telling the story. "We were classmates in middle school. I wasn't very outgoing, so I didn't have many friends. But one day, at the sports meet... we became best friends. Later, I gradually fell in love with him. Just when I was about to confess, he told me he had fallen for an older girl at school..."
The little girl in the hospital bed didn't understand. "What happened after that? Did you get together? I feel like he might have liked you."
The woman nodded. "Yes, we liked each other."
One year ago
I went alone to those twelve cities, stopping at nothing. I collected all twelve puzzle pieces. The picture on them showed a girl sitting by the beach, holding a clear bottle in her arms.
There was writing on the back of the puzzle: "I'm sorry I couldn't go around the whole world with you. I know you love traveling, but I didn't even get to show you all of our country. In our next life, let's be carefree wanderers, travel the whole world, then build a home just for the two of us in the mountains and stay together forever.
And if I don't appear behind you in the end... forget me."
Theme: None, really. I just suddenly thought of this one night.
I like it very much, love it, love it
