Like many couples, they had once loved each other passionately. But as time passed, he began to grow distant, perhaps due to what people often call “aesthetic fatigue.” The passion faded, and his heart started to drift.
He began to spend time online, chatting on QQ, seeking new excitement in the virtual world. One day, he came across a short article on a website, written by someone with the username “Falling Maple Leaf.” The article was about a woman’s disappointment in her marriage and life. The beautiful writing and the subtle sadness woven into the words deeply moved him. He couldn’t understand how a woman with such delicate and rich emotions could be unappreciated by her husband. He couldn’t resist checking the author’s profile, only to find that the registered email address was his wife’s full name in pinyin. He suddenly realized—wasn’t his wife’s name “Feng” (Maple)? How could he have forgotten that she had been the president of the literature club in college? It was just that marriage had caused her to set aside many of her hobbies.
He walked into the kitchen and gently wrapped his arms around his wife’s waist from behind. “Let’s go for a walk after dinner,” he said. His wife trembled slightly at the shoulders, “Has the sun risen in the west? Aren’t you going online?” He turned her around, looked at her face, which was actually quite beautiful, and said, “From now on, I’ll walk with you every day.”
As the saying goes, “You can’t see the true face of Mount Lu because you are in the midst of it.” People often say there is no scenery around them, but in reality, the scenery is often right beside you.
