Love’s Mark - Chapter 21

“Holly, I’m sorry to talk to you this way, but Holly, I really don’t know what else to do.

I’m such a fool, you’ve been gone for four years, and I thought you were still alive.

I’m so dull, only now do I know that Xu Mei easily deceived me with a few photoshopped pictures.

I didn’t know she secretly sent you those pictures and messages.

Holly, I swear, I never touched her, it’s always been you.

You were never a replacement for anyone, not her replacement, you are you.

Remember you asked me why I chose you, when I fell for you? I’ll tell you now.

It was at that gathering, you protected others even when you were in danger, you were so stupid and cute, so I fell for you.

Holly, I saw your secondary account on your phone.

It was a record of our time together.

Our first date, our first kiss, our first… Holly, Grandma was right, you’re a kind and thoughtful girl, I let you down.

I saw your last message on social media, ‘Shane, if I really die, will you die with me?‘ Now I can tell you, I will.

Holly, wait for me, okay?” That secondary account was indeed my diary; everything was set to private.

Only a few hundred words, but I read it for a long time.

When I reacted, I heard Shane stepping on the gas.

The Maybach was facing the sea; with his foot on the gas, I knew what he was going to do.

“Shane, are you crazy? I don’t want you to die with me!”

“Stay alive, stay alive, hear me?” But he couldn’t hear me.

The car sped towards the sea.

My memories surged; I felt like I was back on the day I fell into the sea.

Countless waves crashed over me, burning my nose, throat, and lungs.

Death isn’t scary, the process is.
