It was a few days before my twentieth birthday. As I watched the sunset shining through the window, I wondered whether I’d ever have the chance to experience such pure and beautiful emotions myself. Back then, I had no idea of love, life plans, or anything. I simply longed for the mellow taste and did not want to leave any regret. Yet, I was at a loss to go forward. “In the sky after a summer rain, I will build a wide rainbow, because I like you.” As if right in front of me were a scene of a soul rushing to embrace another; can it be any more romantic? Then, tears mixed with bittersweet emotions and sadness blended into the warm shadows cast by the glass windows.
Actually, the duo (Humbert Humbert) were only 23 when they wrote this song — it was hard for me then to believe that they could pursue such ideals and create such touching works right at such an “early age”, as all these seemed to belong to mature adults. But really, two decades of life can already be rich enough; and who doesn’t have the choice to revert to being a child again sometimes?
Soon afterwards, I was struck by a mutual attraction that turned into a relationship. Humming this song through the four seasons, and carefully copying the melodies onto paper — life is so magical.
