The male lead strolled to the front row and sat on the floor right at Ethan Harrington's feet.
"What do you think love looks like?"
"Before I met her, I thought love was a tight embrace."
"I thought love was two people having endless things to talk about."
"I thought love was an incredibly romantic date."
"I thought love was kissing, sex, possession, and a fierce desire to protect."
"Only later did I realize... love is her seeing me at my absolute worst, yet choosing not to walk away."
"Love is her holding my hand tightly when I break down in tears, softly calming me down."
"When I'm at my lowest, she looks at me with unwavering certainty and praises every good quality I have."
"Have you ever been lucky enough to experience a love like that?"
...
Listening to the monologue, the corners of Ethan's lips involuntarily curled upward.
Vivid memories flooded his mind.
Back then, he had just been transferred out of the intensive care unit. His legs had lost all sensation, and the doctors told him to prepare for a lifetime in a wheelchair.
He relentlessly called and texted Lily Summers.
But Lily had dropped off the face of the earth.
He pleaded with Mrs. Harrington, insisting that The Summers Estate must have locked Lily away, begging his mother to go rescue his Lily.
Lily finally showed up, only to tell him she was leaving for the United States and that he needed to rest well.
Tears streamed down his face. He didn't even have the strength to squeeze her hand, his voice choking with desperation. "Lily, I'll walk again. Please don't leave me. Just give me a little more time, and I can go to the States with you."
Lily walked away without a backward glance.
After that, he locked himself in his room, drawing all the curtains tight.
