The promise of forever somehow drifted apart. In the end, no matter how much you ponder it, you still can't quite understand the initial reason for the separation. Suddenly, you realize that love is indeed fragile. It withstands storms but crumbles against the mundane.
——Zhang Ailing, "A Farewell, A Lifetime"
In this world, not all lovers can stay together. At least for Li An'an, love is the most extravagant affair.
When they were together, they dreamed of eternity, imagining a lifetime with one beloved, and if they had a pair of children, life would be complete and without regret. But, it was ultimately just a dream.
In the two years of separation, this was the scene she dreamt of most often. But each time she woke up, aside from tears and boundless emptiness, those scenes remained as illusions.
It was only now she realized they'd already broken up, and she was the one who severed the ties herself.
