Amnesia of Farewells- Can’t Recall If We Exchanged Goodbyes-

by liuqiyue

Can’t remember if we said goodbye, and it haunts me like a ghost. The moment slipped away, and with it, a piece of my heart. It’s a haunting uncertainty, a lingering question that lingers in the back of my mind, torturing me with its ambiguity. I find myself replaying the events over and over, searching for any clues that might reveal whether we actually said goodbye or if it was just a fleeting moment of misunderstanding.

It was a beautiful day, filled with laughter and joy. We had spent hours together, sharing stories, dreams, and secrets. The sun was shining, casting a warm glow on our faces as we walked along the beach, our feet sinking into the soft, sandy surface. It felt like time stood still, and the world outside our little bubble was forgotten. But then, as the day began to wind down, the conversation naturally shifted to the inevitable parting. Or so I thought.

As we approached the parting, I remember feeling a sense of reluctance. I didn’t want to say goodbye, but I knew it was time. I turned to my friend, a look of uncertainty in my eyes, and I whispered, “I’ll miss you.” But did they respond with a heartfelt goodbye, or was it just a casual acknowledgment of our impending separation? The memory is模糊,like a faded photograph.

Days turned into weeks, and the uncertainty grew. I tried to reach out, to reconnect, but every attempt felt like a stab in the dark. I feared that if I admitted my confusion, it might reveal my own insecurities or even worse, make the other person uncomfortable. So, I remained silent, carrying the burden of uncertainty with me at all times.

As time went on, I realized that the question of whether we said goodbye or not is not as important as the memories we shared. The moments of laughter, the deep conversations, and the genuine connection we had are what truly matter. But the uncertainty still lingers, like a shadow over our friendship. It’s a reminder that life is unpredictable, and sometimes, even the most cherished moments can slip away without a trace.

So, I choose to let go of the uncertainty. I acknowledge that we may never know for sure if we said goodbye or not. But I also recognize that the memories we created are real, and they will forever hold a special place in my heart. Perhaps it’s not the actual goodbye that matters, but the love and connection that we shared. And in that sense, I can’t help but feel that we did say goodbye, even if it was just a fleeting moment.
