In a very quiet and beautiful town, there was a pair of lovers who loved each other very much. Every day they went to the seaside to watch the sunrise and at night they went to the seaside to see the sunset. Everyone who saw them looked at them with admiration.

But one day, in a car accident, the girl was seriously injured, she lay quietly in the hospital bed, several days and nights did not wake up. During the day, the boy would watch by his bed and call for his unconscious lover. In the evening he prayed to God in the church of the little town, his tears dry.

A month later, the girl was still lethargic, while the boy was already haggard, but he was still struggling. Finally one day, God was moved by the spoony boy. So he decided to make an exception for the persistent boy. God asked him, "Are you willing to give your life in exchange?" Without hesitation, the boy replied, "I do!" God said: "that ok, I can let your lover quickly wake up, but you have to promise to change into a dragonfly for three years, you are willing to?" "The boy answered firmly," YES!"

At dawn, the boy had turned into a beautiful dragonfly. He said goodbye to God and flew to the hospital in a hurry. The girl was awake, and she was talking to a doctor beside her, but he couldn't hear her.

A few days later, the girl was discharged from hospital, but she was not happy. She asked around for the boy, but no one knew exactly where he had gone. The girl kept looking for all day long, but the boy who had already become a dragonfly was always around her, but he would not shout, would not embrace, he could only bear her silently turn a blind eye. The summer passed, and the cool autumn wind blew the leaves off, and the dragonflies had to leave. So he flew down on the girl's shoulder for the last time. He wanted to touch her face with his wings and kiss her forehead with his tiny mouth, but his small body was not strong enough for her to see.

In a blink of an eye, spring came, dragonflies can't wait to fly back to find their lover. But beside her familiar figure stood a tall and handsome man, and at that moment the dragonfly almost fell out of the air. People talked about how seriously the girl was ill after the car accident, described how kind and lovely the male doctor was, also described how their love was taken for granted, of course, also described the girl has been happy as before. www.duanwenxue.com

The dragonfly was very sad. In the following days, he often saw the man watching the sunrise with his lover at the seaside, and at night he watched the sunset at the seaside, and he himself could do nothing except occasionally rest on her shoulder.

The summer was particularly long that year, and the dragonfly flew painfully low every day. He had no courage to approach his former lover. The murmur between her and the man, the happy laughter between him and her, choked him.

In the summer of the third year, the dragonfly no longer visits its lover very often. Her shoulder was gently held by the male doctor, her face was gently kissed by the male doctor, there was no time to pay attention to a sad dragonfly, and no mood to miss the past.

God's appointed period of three years is fast approaching. On the very last day, the dragonfly's former lover married the male doctor.

The dragonfly flew quietly into the church and landed on God's shoulder. He heard the lover swear to God: I do! He watched the male doctor put the ring on his ex-lover's finger and then watched them kiss sweetly. The dragonfly shed tears of sadness.

God sighed: "do you regret?" The dragonfly dried her tears: "No!" Then God said with a little joy, "Tomorrow you can be yourself again." Dragonfly shook his head: "let me do a lifetime dragonfly......"

Some fate is doomed to lose, some fate is never a good result. Love a person does not have to have, but have a person must be good to love him. Do you have a dragonfly on your shoulder?
