I Never Said I Loved You

Their meeting was like that of any ordinary man and woman in the city.

A chance encounter on a street corner and a warm, unintentional smile were enough to comfort their lonely hearts.

Their marriage was like any romance trapped in a fortress of suspicion.

One careless mistake, one cold and callous remark, was enough to freeze all the beautiful memories they had shared.

She thought they were just another couple destined for a tragic ending.

But he brought with him a past like a raging storm, and in the darkness, they were each other's only light.

Only after they had passed through all their destined sorrows could they embrace again.

Only then could their deep love become an unspoken understanding.

He made her understand:

There are people destined to go through life without love, yet they will love you more than anyone else.

There are people who only realize how beautiful someone is, like the stars, after losing them. Just looking up at them is enough to make you fall under their spell.

He thought for a long time, then smiled and said, "In this vast world, life is but a passing journey."

In that instant, she understood what he meant: Even if they spent their lives wandering like travelers far from home, having one person to guard a lifetime of peace with was enough.
