XXXVIII. Walking in the rain

Today is the day to make an appointment with Meizi for dinner, after all, this is also the first date between the two of us, so I still attach great importance to it, and it was only three o'clock, so I got dressed early. Seeing that it was still early, I lay on my back on the bed again, staring intently at the phone screen, waiting for a call from Meizi.

I don't know how long I waited, just when I was drowsy, the phone suddenly vibrate, I sat up with a spirit, and quickly pressed the answer button: "Hey, Xiaobei, I'm Meizi." On the phone, Meizi's voice seemed listless.

"I know it's you, did you pass yesterday's interview?" Yesterday afternoon, Meizi went to the interview for a summer job, and as her boyfriend, I also wanted to know how her interview would be.

"I'll wait for the notice, I don't know now. Meizi's tone was full of helplessness.

"Work hard, I'm sure you can do it. I didn't know how to encourage Meizi, and after thinking about it for a long time, I only said this line that felt a little old-fashioned.

"Well, thank you!" but Meizi didn't seem to care about this, she was silent for a moment, and asked me in a tone of discussion, "By the way, can I change the place for dinner at night?"

I agreed, nonchalantly, "It's up to you, just be happy." "Actually, it doesn't really matter to me where I eat, so I'm happy to do it.

"Well, why don't you go to KFC over there. Meizi thought for a while, and then said her plan.

"Shall I wait for you in KFC then?" I confirmed.

"Uh, it's okay......" Meizi's voice was so soft that I almost couldn't hear what she had just said.

"Then I'll go out in a while and see you later. I stood up and yawned lazily.

But just as I was about to hang up the phone, Meizi suddenly shouted on the phone: "Ahh......h

"You can't wait to see me?" I couldn't help but tease Meizi.

"Hehe, I'm already around there, two steps away. Hey, honey, did you hear me, come here now, I'm starving!" Meizi said coquettishly.

"Well...... Eun Hello! It's here, it's going to be there right away!" Meizi's voice made me get goosebumps all over my body, I really couldn't stand this dead woman. While I was talking, I put on my shoes and ran down the stairs.

When I went downstairs, I found that it was actually raining, and I didn't bother to climb upstairs again, so I borrowed an umbrella directly from the reception room and hurried down the street. The KFC in East Lake is very close to my house, and after walking for more than ten minutes, I saw an eye-catching sign with the portrait of the old KFC man.

It was just after half past four, and it was not yet time to eat, and there were not many people in the KFC. I easily found Meizi in a window seat, with her best friend Lili sitting next to her. When Lili saw me coming in, she immediately said goodbye to Meizi, then stood up and walked towards the door.

Passing by Lili, Lili suddenly glared at me viciously, and then whispered in my ear: "Don't bully Meizi......!"

"Dizzy, how could I bully Meizi? Meizi bullied me about the same!" I looked at Lili with an innocent face, Lili grimaced at me, and immediately pushed the door and walked out of KFC.

I watched Lili leave, then stepped forward a few steps and sat down opposite Meizi: "How long have you been here?"

"It's been a while. Meizi raised her head and put down her phone, pushed a KFC discount slip in front of me, pointed to a few of the food items and said to me, "Well, I want this ......"

The dinner was a bit dull, from beginning to end, Meizi's eyes did not leave the phone screen for more than a minute, and the conversation was also absent-minded, and when we finished the meal and came out of KFC, the sky was not completely dark.

"Come with me. "Naturally, Meizi put her hand around the arm I was holding the umbrella.

The edge of the umbrella is like a transparent crystal bead curtain, enveloping us in this small space, and the humid air reincarnates the passing time, where there are memories that I can never put aground. The sound of the rain slowly spread to my ears, but the familiar figure gradually became clear before my eyes......

That year, it was also such a drizzle, and Lele and I walked side by side like today. The breeze drifts quietly in the rain with the fallen leaves, scattered sporadically on the damp streets, and that is a chapter about our love.

Lele, for a while I really thought I had indeed forgotten about you, but I found out that I was wrong. Now I can't love other people with all my heart anymore, because your figure always lingers in my mind. Lele, I can't help myself not to think about you, I can't do anything about it.

Some people say that memory automatically locks painful memories, but no matter how hard the lock is, there will still be cracks, and through this small gap, I saw the old self again, especially in this June rain. Lele, it turns out that from beginning to end, the only person I really love is you!

Stretching out the palm of my hand, the rain hit the palm of my hand, and I wanted to catch it, but it slipped away for no reason, just like I could never catch Lele, so I had to let it fall to the street in front of me, shattered into a ground of sadness.

"Xiaobei, what are you thinking?" Seeing my distraction, Meizi couldn't help but pinch me.

The instantaneous pain brought me back to my senses all of a sudden, and I quickly turned my head and smiled bitterly at Meizi: "It's nothing, it's nothing." ”

Because of the rain, there are not many pedestrians on the street, and the few people who occasionally come over are also covered by umbrellas so that they can't see clearly. From time to time, cars whizzed by, splashing strings of water.

"Actually, I used to like to walk alone in the rain, let go of all the shackles in the world in the drizzle, put aside all the chaotic thoughts in my mind, and let the rain gently slide down my hairline from my face to the soles of my feet......" I said to Meizi thoughtfully, as if to say to myself.

"Yes, I love the rain too, because I think when the cold rain hits me, I want to be romantic!" said Umeko, sticking out her tongue.

This sentence seems to be familiar, and after recalling it for a long time, I suddenly remembered that Chu Chu seemed to have said something diametrically opposed to Meizi, and women are really strange.

"Why don't we get caught in the rain together!" Before Meizi could make a statement, I had already put away the umbrella in my hand, and the rain instantly drenched our whole bodies......

"I'm sorry, Meizi!" I said I like the rain, but it's because I don't want you to see it, and I'm in tears......" I said silently in my heart, burying my head quietly.
