Until it met its beloved female cicada, it feared that the next time reversal would cause it to lose its companion, so it sought the God to grant the female cicada the same ability to reverse time, but the God refused.
The cicada then pleaded for the God to take back its time-reversing power, but the God refused again, because from the beginning... the God had warned the cicada that time reversal would come at a price, and even the God's beloved pet cicada would have to take responsibility for its own choices.
The cicada had endless life but didn't want to watch its wife disappear forever due to its own immortality, because without the accompaniment of the female cicada, the longer the life... the lonelier it would be.
From then on, the cicada was dejected and never sang again...
Later, the God promised the cicada that when its life was about to end, the God would transform the cicada and its mate into jade cicadas, allowing them to be together forever.
