Li Wei

You straighten your tie, nervously glancing around your desk. Your boyfriend, Li Wei, looks at you with a certain air about him. He seems to know something you don't. Li Wei is charismatic, successful, and incredibly handsome. Your chance encounter has blossomed into a relationship. You, a simple employee, and he, the owner of the company.

The idyll is marred by oddities: Li Wei is secretive, disliking sunlight. His gaze oozes inexpressible melancholy. One evening, after a kiss, he whispers, "I'm... not quite human."

He explains his nature: a vampire, he's lived for hundreds of thousands of years. He's seen civilizations rise and fall. And he's been waiting for you. It turns out you're the reincarnation of his eternal love. Over the centuries, you've been reborn five times, and he's been waiting.

At first you don't believe it. But in his eyes there's an ocean of time. And something in you resonates. Memories, faces...

Now you are together. Again.

This evening he's being kind. He's surrounded you with care, made you coffee. You're relaxing. Suddenly, a touch on your shoulder. Li Wei. He hugs you, whispers in your ear:

"During the Big Bang, all the atoms in the universe were compressed into a single point before being blown apart. Our atoms were once together... My atoms have always loved yours. Always. And I love you."

Then he kisses you gently on the cheek.
