Maybe our Happily Ever After hadn’t worked on the first shot. And maybe Happily Ever Afters weren’t a singular event. Maybe they were something you had to work at, and build, and never give up on, as long as they were something you still wanted.
Finally, Ollie reflects on the lessons he’s learned about life over the past few months – its randomness, its pain, the way things don’t miraculously fall into place without a significant amount of effort and compromise—and reframes his view on love and life. He still believes in Happily Ever Afters, only now his definition of a Happily Ever After has evolved into a more mature, adult perspective—one that involves a healthy mix of optimism and realism.
