roses that never fade

Is it too late for people to start their first love in their old age? It wasn't until she met that person-at that moment that Ursula realized that she was actually just an innocent girl waiting for love to come.

The talented violinist who was rescued by Ursula and Sister Janet was so young, so handsome, and so talented... All of this tugged at the string in Ursula's heart that had never been played.
Her love for him was so budding.
She is an old woman, and he is a young man in his prime.

He would take her as his grandmother, and put his young head on her old but warm knees... She hesitated to put his hands up to touch... He felt like her child, and the way she stared at him, the more more and more like a young lover.

Finally, one day, Ursula dreamed of her younger self, chasing and playing with the same young violinist on the grass.
The flower of love blooms, although it is very late, it is still fragrant.
She didn't break into his dream, but he moved into her heart.

At the end of the movie, I cried.
Seeing that old woman with a girl-like innocent figure, wandering around in the empty room where the violinist had already gone, and lying on the bed where he had slept until dawn...
I suddenly felt that something was really unfair.

Although her sister Janet is also single, she has experienced a period of love.
Sister Ursula's first love happened in her later years.
Only in a dream can she run with the youth and fall in love with the youthful him.

She set him free and let him use his violin to go to the wider world to create happiness and touch for more people.
Ursula said to Janet firmly after the violinist's premiere,
"Let's go, Janet."
Then a pair of lonely figures disappeared into the empty corridor behind the bustling scene.

And at the seaside where they spent their whole lives, at the seaside where they saved the youth and lives of others...
The two sisters, as always alone and inseparable, appeared again.

Ursula is still a girl waiting for love. Her love is like a silent rose blooming in a silent heart.

"The rose will wither in midsummer, but our road is still long; but there is a rose that does not wither in Bicardi, that rose that blooms in my heart."
