Senseless

There is a scene from my favorite movie, Sense and Sensibility.
a
The older sister says, “He loved you dearest. He made us all think he loved you. Did he leave you with any understanding? Based on your behavior I assumed he had.”
a
“Yes. No.” She sobs. “He’s not so unworthy as that. It was never declared but every day implied.”
a
Then she almost dies of a broken heart. See, Willaby needed money. He had to marry a rich woman.
a
The young protagonist married a hero instead, Colonel Brandon.
a
Bring me my Colonel.

I’m as indifferent as she was. The Colonel’s abiding love changed her.
a
He didn’t talk about his x-wife. He didn’t do a thing to make her jealous because love, doesn’t do that.
a
Love is infinitely kind.
a
Thanks Braja.

You’re my hero today. But I can’t marry you cuz you’re a girl and…uh, married.
