During a follow-up appointment, the doctor informed me that one of the side effects of the medication was excessive sleepiness, slower reactions, and impaired balance and concentration. It could also lead to the potential for birth defects, meaning I wouldn’t be able to have children. If I wanted to get pregnant, I would need to switch medications and readjust, which seemed to put the doctor in a difficult position. I simply nodded and said it was okay.41Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHDPfuUjyw

At that time, my boyfriend was always eager to try out different jobs and changed positions frequently, but he also spent a lot of time with me and valued our relationship. However, the arguments increased, often about family matters and work issues. Despite that, we still liked each other; as time passed, we had to face reality. He told me not to let reality bring us down and that as long as we stayed together, we could continue our relationship.

I also met his family, who initially didn’t like me and thought I didn’t understand anything. However, after seeing how well he and I got along, they accepted our relationship. But the issues from our previous breakup, the opposition from our families, and our differing values had already created cracks in our relationship. I didn’t realize it at the time; I still felt very happy every day, and he cared for me deeply. This mutual affection seemed to last a long time.

After changing jobs several times, he began to believe that one needed to learn a skill to survive. Through referrals from friends and family, he learned hairdressing and started working in a salon. After trying various jobs, he finally found one that suited him and decided to pursue a long-term career in this field. On the other hand, my studies became busier, and we saw each other even less.

From that point on, I understood less and less about him. Due to work commitments, he dyed his hair and became extremely busy. His new job paid less than before, but he enjoyed it, so he continued. Later, I asked him to cut my hair, and I could feel his passion for hairdressing.

He gave all his earnings to his family for household expenses, so he struggled to make ends meet. Even so, he sometimes saved money to buy me gifts. However, as time went on, he found it increasingly difficult to manage financially, and money issues affected everything. Our differing financial backgrounds were a major reason for my family’s disapproval of our relationship. The pressure from my family was overwhelming; I found myself arguing with them while also quarreling with him over this issue. This emotional turmoil ultimately led to our breakup.

Later, I learned that he was with someone else. Although it made me very sad, I had to accept it.

At eighteen, we were still young.

We were still at that age where holding hands would make us blush, our hearts would race when we spoke, and we would cry and miss each other when apart.

After experiencing many highs and lows, when it came time to say goodbye, we could only wish each other happiness and part ways.

My love for him was deeply embedded in my being, and memories of our time together would always resurface, making me feel sad. I never understood why I cried so much; I thought with time I could let go of it, but time was of no use, and I felt helpless.

Sometimes I long for those days we spent together—those beautiful moments of youth that happen only once in a lifetime.
