How much energy does it take to light up the world with a shadowless lamp? She uses every ounce of it to silently fight back against fate's mockery. He once thought life was a journey of weathering wind and rain with equanimity. It was only after meeting her that he understood true love as the first flutter of the heart upon turning around.

Only after being loved by him did she realize that life could be filled with the calm and ease of having a place to belong and holding hands as night falls.
