It was a very long journey. Alpha quietly lay in Gein’s embrace, he looked out the window at the passing scenery and listened to the roar of the train running over the tracks, and his heart was strangely calmed……

He said to himself: “Going back……”

In his words were the experiences of the vicissitudes of life……

For this ending, he waited too long, and for this answer, he paid too much……

He just lay silently on his chest, feeling his warmth, his embrace, his breath, and his heat.

In a trance, time also seemed to follow those retrogressive scenes back to the past……

He slowly pointed out the window with his bandaged hands and said: “Look…..That’s Austria…..”

That’s right……

This was Austria, his familiar homeland, his beloved country, the place he had longed for countless times in his dream……

He fondly caressed the hands that no longer able to play the piano, kissed them softly, and gently said: “We’re back……back……”

He gave up his military rank and glory for him, and told his father, who was still at the front line, that he had left Germany.

Then he took his beloved and got on the train without hesitation……

In fact, Vienna wasn’t the hope and expectation in his dream, and the memories of the past weren’t something he longed in his heart……

When the train finally sounded the steam whistle and arrived at the station, he couldn’t wait to pick him up and step off the platform.

This was a beautiful land, even the air was so refreshing as if every tree and grass were carrying their footprints, walking forward like wandering in the light of the past……

All the beautiful and warm pictures returned to his mind one after another……

When he looked at him, the thick fog in his eyes had gradually dispersed……

When he looked at him, the sorrow on his face gradually calmed……

They went back to the shabby little wooden house, the village was much quieter than before.

After the baptism of fire, most people had already left or rested here forever, and the Germans were stationed in a town 50 miles away.

This place was like a corner forgotten by war, occasionally the sound of birds chirping could be heard, more often, the “rustling” sound of the wind blowing the leaves……

They restarted their ordinary lives……

He would pour him a glass of milk at mealtime like before, it was just that it was harder for his hands that were no longer nimble.

But he always sat by and waited patiently. The sunshine lingered on them, wiping away the haze that had stagnated for a long time……

He looked at him, entranced, the bottom of his eyes was filled with lights of contentment.

Because of knowing the pain of losing something, therefore, when he got it back, he will cherish it even more than before.

He had completely put the past behind him. He was no longer a German officer, no longer a proud colonel. Now he was just an ordinary person who wanted to protects his love.

He often carried him up the hill, lying with him in the soft grass, looking at the clouds in the sky, and smelling the sweet fragrance of flowers.

He asked him: “Alpha…..lets us….. lets us just live like this, alright?……”

He heard him reply softly: “……okay……”

As a result, in the moment of turning his head, he saw a smile he had not seen for a long time, it was a faint and imperceptible smile.

But it made him excited and kissed his lips, like that first kiss of many years ago with the throbbing heartbeat in the hearts of the two……

Was this heaven taking pity on them……

Or……

Another cruel joke of fate……
