Stories: You said you would wait for me to come back and marry you.
When the boy found the girl, it was at her wedding. The boy was holding roses, intending to propose to her, only to discover that she was in a wedding dress, holding hands with someone else.
The boy and girl met at a friend’s party. The girl’s pure gaze instantly captivated the boy.
The boy came from a rural area. With his exceptional drawing skills, he got into college and left the countryside, meeting the girl in this city. The boy felt unworthy of the girl, wanting to love but unable to confess, enduring it silently over and over again. Finally, a year later, the boy had to leave for his career.
On the day he left, he mustered up the courage to call the girl out to the place where they first met. It was pouring rain that day. The boy said to the girl, “I like you, but I have to leave today. Will you wait for me? Just five years. I’ll come back to marry you in five years!” The girl didn’t speak, but her face clearly showed a blush of happiness. The boy didn’t wait for her answer, turned, and rushed into the rain, which quickly soaked him.
After running a dozen steps, he heard the girl’s voice behind him: “I like you too, I’ll wait for you. Remember to come back and marry me in five years. You must come back…” The boy paused, and no one knew if the water on his face was tears or rain. Then he walked away without looking back.
After leaving, the boy followed a famous painter to learn painting. Due to his talent, he progressed quickly. Soon, the famous painter taught him everything he had learned in his lifetime. Two years later, due to work, the boy returned to the girl’s city. He wanted to surprise her, so he didn’t notify her in advance. But when he passed by a bar, he saw the girl laughing and talking with an unfamiliar man inside.
The girl saw the boy too, looking clearly embarrassed. The girl explained that the man was just a friend. The boy responded with an “oh,” told the girl he had something to do, and turned away silently. The girl wanted to chase after him, but the man held her back. The boy returned to his hotel, and an hour later, there were more than a dozen empty bottles on the table. The boy didn’t drink, but that night, he drank a lot and cried uncontrollably. It was the first time he had cried since he could remember.
From then on, the boy worked even harder on his painting, just to marry the girl sooner. Two years and eight months later, his painting won first place in a national competition. The boy had finally succeeded. Yes, he succeeded. That day, there were still three months and five days left until the five-year promise. He immediately shared the news with the girl.
On the phone, the girl was silent for a long time and then said, “Congratulations. Now that you’ve succeeded, I’m relieved.” Then she hung up. The boy felt something was wrong, called her again, but couldn’t get through. He panicked, sensing something bad. That night, he flew from the competition site to her city and went to her home. Her neighbor told him that she had moved away more than a year ago, intensifying his bad premonition.
Around noon the next day, he finally found the girl, but it was at her wedding, and the groom was the richest man’s son in the city, the man from the bar two years ago. The girl didn’t see the boy, and he didn’t make a scene. Seeing her embrace the groom, he turned and walked away silently.
The next day, the boy was sent to the hospital. An hour later, the doctor issued a death notice. When the hospital prepared to contact his family, they found an unsent message on his phone: “You ultimately betrayed our promise. You said you would wait for me, but today you married someone else.
If you couldn’t do it, why did you promise in the first place? Why did you treat me so heartlessly? Without you, I am like a fish out of water. A fish out of water is doomed to die. Now that you’ve married someone else, it’s time for me to go to heaven too.”
The night the boy committed suicide, after taking a bottle of sleeping pills, an email arrived in his inbox: “Dear husband, please allow me to call you that. Today, I betrayed our promise and married someone else, the man you saw in the bar more than two years ago. He had been pursuing me, but I didn’t agree. That day, your sudden appearance made him aware of us, and he threatened to cripple your hands if I didn’t marry him, ensuring you could never paint again. I’m sorry, I couldn’t bear to see that happen.
Yesterday, hearing about your success, a weight was lifted from my heart. But now, I’m unworthy of you. Let’s meet in the next life. I’ll be your bride in our next life. I never told you, but from the moment I first saw you at that party, I was deeply attracted to you and fell in love with you. Dear, the blood on my wrist is flowing more and more. I feel so sleepy. Dear, in the next life, you must remember to marry me.”
