2024, question Orm asked 00K the most:
"So will you love me? Do you love me? I'm just afraid you don't love me. I just want to know that."
Every time Orm asked, 00K would simply smile to make her happy. She was never someone who casually spoke about her feelings, nor was she the type to easily make promises something would last forever. So back then, Orm still needed an answer to that question. She simply wanted to know whether she was loved, to hear Ling say out loud answer she had always been hoping for.
2025, question "Do you love me?" was no longer something Ling allowed Orm to ask, because she already knew answer.
And honestly, it made sense. That question no longer needed to be asked when Orm had truly come to feel that Lingling Kwong loved her, and loved her so deeply. She no longer had to worry that Ling might not love her, nor did she have to carry fear of "I'm afraid you don't love me". All those insecurities seemed to have been gently soothed by Ling's love.
So instead of asking "Do you love me?", there was only one thing she wanted to know now:"How much do you love me?"
2026, it is still same question that first appeared back in 2024, but this time, Orm has a definite answer from Ling.
And perhaps, fact that she still asks that question now feels almost like a sweet kind of "humble brag" (🤣🤣🤣). Because whenever she asks "Do you love me?", Ling never makes her guess answer. She always gives her a clear affirmation.
No matter how many times question is asked, hundreds or even thousands of times, Ling will patiently give her the same answer:
I love you.
2024, Orm needed answer to know whether she was loved.
2025, she no longer needed to ask because she could feel that love in everything 00K gave her.
And in 2026, she can ask again without fear, simply because she knows for certain that no matter how many times she asks, Ling's answer will always be:" I love you."
