Even though they had been distant for most of their lives, having not contacted each other for over a decade.
Still, his brilliance had always been her pride.
She was very proud that the person she liked was so outstanding, no different from her imagination, even better than she imagined.
So much had happened along the way, and she had used so much courage. She felt that liking him was the most beautiful thing she'd done in her life, the bravest, too.
Even though, at the beginning, he liked someone else.
Even now, he hasn't accepted her.
Even though it seemed like they never started, she felt that they would never end.
Even if, even if, he would never be well, if he didn't want her, she would cross mountains and rivers for him. She would traverse hills and valleys, quietly waiting for the twists and turns to reveal the bright and beautiful.
A lifetime for just one person.
