So he told her everything.

My face is so ugly that I've been hiding it for years.

That's why everyone hated me and I was always alone.

I'm really happy that you'll regain your eyesight, but if you see my face you'll surely reject me.

But the girl.

....I didn't choose you for your face.

Answered with a sligthly annoyed look.

It would've been easier for her to be the kind of person who'll say "You've been lying to me all this time! You're the worst!"

The girl's words were candid and heartful, the young man understood.

But they also gave him nothing but sorrow.

The young man was afraid she'll reject him if she regained her vision.
