We Keep Things to Ourselves

Xu Yanqing x He Ziyan

A wonderful couple, undone by fate.

“The shattered picture frame holds the reason for everything hidden behind it.”

“Because I didn't have the courage to face it or tell you.”

We could have stayed together and been happy for a long time. I was too impulsive. I thought about what would happen if I told you those things, so... that's why I've treated you this way.

“Idiot... idiot... I wouldn't... I'm sorry... I'm sorry.” Xu Yanqing's choked voice came from his throat.

This is a comedy. I'm a new author and still learning, so my writing may hit some common sore spots. Please mind the tags and avoid it if needed. (I beg you.)

Theme: “I thought you'd hate me for the shameful things I couldn't bring myself to say, so I kept quiet. I didn't realize you felt the same way.”
