Feelings of Life Torment

episodes 15

The morning was strangely quiet. Light clouds were floating in the sky, and an unknown weight was floating in the air. John was slowly forming, a distant expression in his eyes. Layla was also being made in silence, as if both of them did not want to look at each other. Even after getting into the car, they both remained silent. The trees on the side of the road were moving away one by one, and their minds were floating in the minds of the past, the first meeting, the first smile, the happy days spent together. It seemed like every memory was blurry like the wind, but still clear in the heart. The car stopped in front of the court. As soon as we entered, the formalities of the documents began. Everything seemed cool and orderly, but John's chest was shaking. When it was finally time to sign, Layla's hand was shaking while picking up the pen on the table. A gentle restlessness and sadness in his eyes. John was also looking, the same feeling in his eyes. Laila said slowly, “John… will everything end so easily?” John was silent for a moment. His heart was wondering what words would come out. Then he said softly, "It's all over a long time ago, Layla... we're just writing on paper." Laila's eyes filled with tears. Everything in the house stopped for a moment. The pen fell from Leyla's hand on the paper. Their path will be forever separated with a single signature. At that moment both of them realized that love is still there, but reality is pushing them different paths. Layla left the courtroom without saying another word. The door closed slowly behind him. He left without signing the Divz's paper. A strange silence descended on the courtroom. John looked at the papers on the table. His eyes were stuck in them. He didn't notice when Leyla went out. The lawyer said slowly, "Mr. John, if you sign it, the process will be easier." John's eyes are not straight from the paper. Laila's face floated in her mind, that first meeting, Laila's smile, the memories of the days spent together. He stopped as he brought the pen on the paper. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, "Where is Leyla?" The lawyer was a little surprised and said, "He left without signing." Suddenly reality hit. Looking around, John saw that Leyla was not there. The chest was filled with pain.

Slowly he picked up the paper. He looked at the place where he was supposed to sign. His hands were shaking, the pen was throbbing between his fingers. His mind is filled with the waves of memory. That rainy day of college, Leyla's first smile, small happy moments—everything came to mind. John realized that signing this paper was not only the end of a relationship, but also the end of all the memories of so many years. He stood up in a moment's decision. He quickly left the courtroom with the paper on the table. He came out and looked around, but found Leyla nowhere. John was desperately searching for Leyla in the corridor. A spark of hope in his eyes, tears of pain again. Leyla was standing near the stairs some distance away, tears in her eyes, a strange impression of hesitation and pain on her face. John quickly moved forward. When Leyla turned her face to John, their eyes met. The two have the same sadness in their eyes, the same love, but the same reality. They looked at each other in silence as soon as a sound came out. Gradually John said, “Leyla, I—” Leyla held her hand and said, “John, ... there is no language in his silent mouth....... Their hearts know that even if love is gone, the memories will live forever. They took a long breath. The paper slowly fell from John's hand. Both of them understood that some relationships end on paper, but remain forever. John stood still for a while. Tears in the corners of his eyes, and memories filled with hearts. The silence of the court remained forever. The two paths are different, but they remember each other's memories. The reality of life sometimes pushes love to a different path, but deep in memory love lives forever. John looked at the paper slowly.
