Antonio's head was hit to one side, and his voice sounded hoarse.

Grace couldn't hide the mockery on her face.
"What are you looking at, a ruined place?"
Antoshook his head.
"Grace, believe me, | would show you my sincerity."
The car slowly stopped at the entrance of Grandma's small courtyard.
Looking up, the familiar blue-tiled white walls and carved wooden doors were exactly the sas in my memory.
Obviously, Antoexpended effort to renovate his grandmother's house.
Grace looked at the familiar courtyard and tears fell involuntarily.

grape
arbor.

On a winter night, | snuggled in my grandmother's warm embrace, watching the snowflakes falling outside the
window.
The beautiful moments spent with my grandmother, like shining stars, have now turned into untraceable
shooting
stars.
Walking into the courtyard, the old locust tree still had abundant branches and leaves, with a stone table and
several stone benches placed underneath.
Grace still remembers that twhen she, Antonio, and Talia were sitting on a stone bench, sharing the snacks
made by their grandmother.
In the blink of an eye, dreams shattered, and everything changed.
"Grace, look, everything here is just like before."
Antowhispered softly, his eyes filled with anticipation, hoping to see a trace of emotion and nostalgia on
Grace's face.
Grace's expression was full of sarcasm.
"Yeah, it's true, just like before, you took away the two people | loved the most, but leftwith an empty shell."
"Do | still need to be grateful to you to the point of tears?"
Antostopped speaking and only took out a letter from the drawer.

sincere wishes in her heart.

Antowanted to hold her, but he was pushed away again.
Grace sat paralyzed on the ground, crying her heart out, as if she wanted to drain away all the grievances and
tears at once.

She suddenly realized that all of her grandmother's wishes were for her happiness.
Antoentered the room carrying chicken soup, his eyes filled with tenderness. "Grace, eat something."
Grace looked up, her eyes devoid of joy or sadness.
"Antonio, | used to think that as long as we loved each other, we could overcany difficulties, but | lost
everything."
"Perhaps | once loved you very much, even loved you to the point of losing myself, but now it seems that it was
all just futile struggle."
"Grandma and Talia will never cback to life, and between us, we can never go back."
Antonio's eyes flashed crimson, and he tightly clenched his fist, his voice low and suppressed.
"Grace, | would never give up and | would never let you leave me."
Grace looked at Antonio's appearance, and a hint of helplessness and sadness welled up in her heart.
But she really wanted to struggle out of these days, she wanted to let herself go and forever draw a line with
Antonio.
