With the final episode of the variety show aired, plus the news of Nicholas rescuing people barehanded from a fire, he now had a solid image of a loving husband, So, online, there was a unified guess about my appearance here. They thought I must have been praying for a child.

Having been married for nearly five years without children, voices of pity for me increased online. The internet seemed to have no memory. Everyone seemed to forget that I had long divorced Nicholas.

Her husband had passed away, and she had been caring for her mother–in–law alone for 15 years.

I did not want to go back and face Nicholas anyway, so I accepted the ticket. But when I arrived at the music festival, it was different from the passionate, large–scale dance party I had imagined.

A piano was placed at the center of the stage, and the man I was trying to avoid actually went on stage. and sat at the piano. As his fingers lightly touched the keys, a piano piece completely different from the festival’s style began to play.

Though he wore a mask, I recognized him instantly.
