Not Finished, Not to Be Continued

He is a regret that I can never let go of in my life. At that time, he took ninety-nine steps toward me, but I didn't even have the courage to take the last step. I let him down, and I let down my true feelings. Many things that happened to me, I never dared to let him know. I was so afraid - afraid that he would see the part of me that wasn't good enough, afraid that he would understand the past that I didn't want to face yet. Youth never gives you a chance to regret. Later, I was finally able to say "I liked him" to everyone calmly, but I only owed him the most important "I like you". There was neither a formal start nor a solemn farewell between us. All the unspoken words and all the moments of hesitation eventually became the quietest echo in youth. Our story can only end with "it is not finished and will not be continued". ---
