A pair of innocent lovers faced an inevitable separation when they were glued together. So, as parting promises, they have each other. The next day, on the way to take the boy to the station, the two were reluctant to part, as if they could not live without each other. The song "I will wait for you" sounded, "Even if it takes a lifetime, I will wait for you to come back; no matter how many summers pass, I will wait for you to come back; until you come back to me, until I Hold you; until I hear you sigh softly in my arms." The train moved away, and the face of the lover was gradually unrecognizable. But the singing is still there "Wherever you wander, wherever you go; remember every day that I love you so much; please trust me in my heart, and I will wait for your return with my whole life."
It seems cruel, Separation is for young love. Can it be used as a test? Someone will say. But is it necessary to test love? Love and doubt, oh, why torture yourself.
And fate seems to be suspicious of this pair of lovers, but fortunately, fate is just. It doesn't have a snarky, snobbish mother come to beat the mandarin ducks. Although the girl's mother didn't like the young man who repaired the car, although she knew that the family situation was getting increasingly difficult, she still waited for the girl, and even gave enough tolerance to an unborn child, the crystallization of the eve of their parting. A boy in military service, a bewildered pregnant girl, fewer and fewer letters; a mother struggling to maintain a family, an embarrassed umbrella shop, a patient and wealthy suitor. The cruel part is that this is a choice that only the parties can make, and there is no excuse to find; the cruel part is that the parties are shaken over time and with the environment.
When the man returns from military service, the woman has already married someone else and left the country. After suffering and sinking, the man finally married a gentle and virtuous woman. A few years later, on Christmas Day, at a gas station run by a man, the two unexpectedly reunited. There was nothing to say to each other, only a faint "How are you?" "I'm fine." Although both of their children used the names that were set in the joke when they were young, no one cared anymore.
The woman drives home, the man's wife and children return. It's Christmas Eve. The music sounded again, and it was this song again, "I will wait for you to come back", the same affectionate tone, the same passionate oath, but it made a faint accumulation of moisture in the chest, and had to take a deep breath.
Sadly, it is no longer love and separation. The sad thing is that at the beginning, I was so convinced that there was no way to live without him, and the words were still in my ears, but then I still lived peacefully or happily in the world without him. "I will wait for you forever", this oath is so poignant only when love is there, what kind of tone does it sound to someone who has given up love.
Snow Castle, the second time I saw it, In Zhang Xiaoxian's book, the heroine bought a puzzle. It was a two-storey restaurant in a small French town with chimneys and mottled walls. The owner and his wife were drinking red wine on the outdoor seating outside the restaurant. A man pointed at the French baguette and said it was a French snow castle. From the heroine's point of view, this is her dream life, and owning a restaurant with the man she loves is her dream love and an impossible dream.
And I, still hopelessly, blindly believe in dreams and love.
