Nina was a bright, passionate woman who had loved and lost early. Her fiancé died in war, leaving her heartbroken and drifting. Then came three men—each different, each teaching her something about love.
First was ''Sam'', kind and cheerful. He loved her deeply and offered a stable life. But he didn’t understand her inner world. She married him, hoping his love would heal her. It didn’t. Love, she realised, isn’t just about being loved—it’s about being seen.
Then came ''Ned', clever, intense, and charming. He understood her pain and shared her fire. They had a secret child together. But Ned feared real commitment. He came close, then pulled away. Passion without courage, she learned, cannot build a lasting love.
And always nearby was ''Marsden'', quiet, thoughtful, and loyal. He had loved her in silence for years. He wasn’t exciting like Ned or sunny like Sam, but he accepted her as she was—no lies, no games. In time, Nina saw that real love is not loud. It’s safe, steady, and stays through storms.
In the end, Nina chose Marsden. Not because he was perfect, but because he gave her peace.
Moral¹: Don’t chase only excitement or comfort. Choose someone who sees your soul, stays by your side, and helps you grow. That’s love worth holding on to.
Moral²: Reading English Literature is necessary to understand the humankind.
