T The Sad Girl Marries a 70-Year-Old. 10 D
Yuki, 26, shocked her friends by announcing her engagement to 70-year-old Kenji.
They asked jokingly if Kenji was “rich-rich” in their initial feelings of disbelief and suspicion. However, Yuki maintained her composure and her faith in the love she had discovered.
They told a different story than most people would have thought. While seeking solitude on a peaceful Okinawan beach during a trying period in her life, Yuki met Kenji.
She met a gentle, elderly man there who gave her more than just shade and lemonade; he gave her real attention and a sense of calm that she hadn’t experienced in years.
Kenji was a retired professor of physics who had a special blend of humor, honesty, and intelligence. He gained Yuki’s trust by being sincere rather than trying to impress her.
He assured her, “You’re not; I’ve lived long enough to know that most people are full of it.” That is uncommon.
His remarks resonated with Yuki, establishing the groundwork for a deep exchange.
