Summary
Love is a maze. When you think you've found its loopholes, it drags you back to where you started. It doesn't want us to discover its origin or meaning. It wants us to just simply love and be loved.
When the time comes, Richie will forget. And when he returns for the last time in 27 years, he'll kiss Eddie again, with the same traces of affection. Even so, he'll forget for whom he cried so much on the day when all evil was diminished. He will forget who gave him such a tender touch. He'll forget at who his first "I love you" was aimed at. His only "I love you", actually.
But for now all he can do is ask Eddie to finish the carving he's been thinking about for so long.
Maybe in another lifetime, Richie, my love.
No more dreams. Just breathe, Rich. It's okay.
"You're okay" Eddie's voice resonates in Richie's head throughout his whole life. Even when he doesn't know it's Eddie.
One. Two. Three. Breathe out. You're okay.
