charles and sarah
"Can her family see the sea?" Sara stopped the pen in her hand to paint the grim self-portrait. When she was about to live on the street without support, she still cherished the feeling of failure in her heart. Dressed in a black cloak, she was imprisoned in a painstakingly managed freedom cage. Sarah's family was poor but received a good education. She clearly understood that she could not integrate into the so-called upper class, and that the balance of love based on wealth and status violated her long-held love Bottom line. The arrogance exuded from within made her unwilling to be reduced to mediocrity, and she had to linger on the edge of society. Staring at the sea, she fell into the abyss into which the French lieutenant pushed her, and Sarah's intelligence gave her insight into the French lieutenant's love-playing conspiracy even as an authority. However, she did not refute it as a talk for everyone after dinner; she did not clarify the prostitute who became a French lieutenant. The hazy sea fog can't see through Sarah's mystery. The black cloak is an invisible cage for her self-protection. She believes in love and doesn't dare to get involved easily. I guess she has already put down that scheming French lieutenant. She has always been confused by the worldly vision around the society and pursued her ideal life without any results. She had to live with shame, endure the raging wind and howling rumors. She accepted this kind of vulgar and bad character in the eyes of others, clinging to the label of lewdness, and using lack of self-love and mental illness to hold up an umbrella for herself to ride the wind and waves to pursue freedom.
When the passers-by came and went but refused to moor, someone stopped for a moment for her. It was the affection in that glance that lit a light for Sarah's life. Charles fell in love with Sarah, and even though he had a marriage contract with a famous family, it didn't stop Charles from approaching Sarah. At first he walked hesitantly, hesitantly, uncertainly and cautiously. He was attracted by Sara's uniqueness, but it wasn't until that night that he realized that everyone's rumors were self-defeating. He made a promise and started to run firmly. Sarah, wants to go to a bright future with the woman who gave herself to him. Sarah touched the life-saving straw that Charles stretched out and held on tightly. She vaguely felt that Charles' redemption could help her get out of the predicament, but she was inferior, sensitive, and fearful. She was not sure whether Charles would give up his status for himself, let alone. Determine if you are ready for a new life, or do not want to hurt Charles, who loves her so much among the few friends, she is inferior, she feels unworthy, she is tangled, she is not clear Do you want it yourself. She made her best choice - to leave without saying goodbye.
The disgraced Charles searched for her for three years, until she was ready and returned to everyone's attention. After a long absence, she was bright and confident. She held the answer to test whether Charles' love had expired. The answer was unsurprisingly no. of. She found herself, found life, and found Charles. They are together.
Ana and Mike
Unlike the hypocritical imprisonment from society, the "equal freedom" that Anna and Mike have is no longer an empty promise. People's eyes are no longer vulgar, and it is not uncommon for people to come together even if they have families. More precisely, the open view of love in modern society is not limited to whether it is accepted or not. It can be seen that the overflowing freedom is a gift of this new era. From the initial physical union, Mike began to yearn for Anna's spirit. He created every opportunity to see Anna. He was trapped in love and cocooned himself. In contrast, Anna is more free and easy, like Sarah's ideal self, so free, easy and fearless, her reason overcomes her sensibility, and she chooses to leave without saying goodbye at the last moment. Different from Sarah's parting, Anna's parting without saying goodbye is a decision, a timely stop loss, a self-protection, and a pursuit of freedom. I thought about a question, if Anna went to the appointment, would Mike really give up his wife and children for Anna, just like Charles did? I firmly believe he can't do it. In the modern materialistic and bizarre world, love is constantly devalued, physical contact has become to meet physiological needs, and excessive freedom and openness distorts the original meaning of love. In my opinion, physical union is an expression of spiritual fit and not a physical relaxation method to satisfy one's own needs. With Mike's "Sarah", I suddenly fell into a trance again..
Sarah and Charles are lovers.
Anna and Mike are lovers.
