### Summary
Following a significant time skip, the narrative focuses on the protagonist Boy, now an elderly, bearded man. This chapter delivers a new and devastating emotional blow, revealing that the passage of time is causing his memory of the Girl's face to fade, a tragic development that has left readers heartbroken. This profound sense of loss is amplified by the strong implication that the Boy has contracted the same incurable infectious disease that claimed other survivors earlier in the story. The combination of his failing memory and deteriorating health is perceived by the audience as exceptionally sorrowful, with some readers finding this chapter even more emotionally impactful than the one depicting the Girl's death. The overwhelming sadness of the protagonist's lonely fate has left the audience deeply distressed and apprehensive about what the story's conclusion may hold.
