"How good life would have been," Su Min wept as he kissed the top of her head. He gave her his body as comfort. Selfishly, she hugged him harder. Selfishly, she took what Li Jie was willing to give. "If I loved you," she whispered brokenly.
Su Min did not stop talking despite Li Jie tightening his arms around her, "God is so cruel to me... or maybe I was too cruel to you. If I loved you... I wouldn't be so miserable."
Su Min looked up at him with her puffy eyes. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay," Li Jie replied with his comforting smile. "It's not your fault," he said as he looked away from Su Min to gaze deeply into the distance. "It's not your fault… But can't you learn to love me?" he asked with a seldom-used tone of desperation.
Su Min leaned away from him to stare confusedly into his eyes. She felt as though her soul was exposed before his deep gaze as he spoke.
