As a young talented designer, Guo Dongyue often travels, whether it is to receive business or learn from his peers, running around at home and abroad, and the time of each business trip ranges from half a month to several months.

Guo Dongyue is busy with his career and has not yet married, and his mother is very worried. From a very early age, Guo's mother developed a habit of calling him every three days when he was on a business trip to ask if he was okay. Before making a phone call, Guo's mother would carefully calculate the time difference, and considering his work and rest time, she would never disturb his rest or work. When he returns to his hotel and dusts off the day, his mother's call arrives on time.

Guo Dongyue is used to such phone calls, and regards reporting safety as a routine, although sometimes he is irritable because of work, and he will seem very impatient on the phone, and he will hang up after saying a few words.

On the last night of a business trip, he successfully completed his work, and he was in a rare and relaxed mood. He took a soak in the bathtub of the hotel, and when he came out, he put on his bathrobe, served a glass of red wine, listened to his favorite classical music, and leaned back on the sofa to close his eyes and take a nap.

He had decided to go to Meimei for a good night's sleep after drinking this glass of wine, and then take a flight back to China at dawn tomorrow, but for some reason, when the wine was finished, the sleepiness was delayed. Not only that, but the mood that had been relaxed suddenly became a little restless, as if I had forgotten something.

At first, he thought it was a matter of work, but when he carefully recalled the details of his work during the day, there seemed to be nothing missing or ill-considered. After thinking about it several times, he even opened his laptop to review the design sketches and the tender contract, but he still couldn't find the source of his frustration. As for the rest...... Guo Dongyue's emotional experience is almost blank, he has been in a few short and not very successful relationships before, and even the appearance of the other party has faded away.

When he turned on his mobile phone, saw the prompt text message sent by the plane marked with a successful booking, and noticed the date of the ticket, he understood - today should be the day when his mother called him, why did the phone ring for a long time?

Maybe there's something, right?

He silently calculated the time difference, this time in the country should be lunch time, maybe his mother was busy cooking and forgot about the phone call...... Although this has never happened before, the elderly are always prone to forgetfulness.

Do you want to call your mother and ask?

He thought about it and felt that it was not necessary, anyway, he would only say a few words, and he would return to China tomorrow, and there would be no accidents. If the mother is actually cooking, the phone rings suddenly, and she may be scrambled and may get burned.

Having figured this out, he no longer cared about it. The strength of the red wine went up, and he plunged into the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Ding Ding Ding Ding -

The phone rang suddenly, forcibly pulling him back from his dream.

"Hey?" he didn't fully come to his senses, and fumbled with his impression to pick up his phone and connect the phone.

"Dong Yue, it's Mom! I forgot to call you just now, I wanted to forget it, but if I don't call a mother, I won't feel at ease. The mother's apologetic voice came from the receiver.

"Well, it's okay, I'm fine, I'll go back tomorrow. He said.

"Oh, that's good. Listen to the sound of you sleeping, don't you? sleep well, Mom is relieved to know that you are okay. ”

"I'll hang up if it's okay. ”

"Okay, hang up. ”

As before, Guo Dongyue took the initiative to hang up the phone, threw the phone wherever he went, and continued to sleep. Perhaps it was because he received a call from his mother that cleared his mind, and this time he slept more deeply, barely dreaming.

Ding Ding Ding Ding -

I don't know how long it took, but the phone rang again.

Guo Dongyue touched the position of the bedside table, but did not touch it.

The phone kept ringing, very noisy.

He had to open his eyes, tilt his head from side to side, and find the phone thrown on the edge of the bed. He rolled over, rolled to the phone, picked it up and saw that the caller was his mother again.

Guo Dongyue stared at his mother's avatar on the screen for a few seconds before answering the phone.

"Mom, what's wrong?" he asked.

"Dongyue, my mother forgot to call you just now, I wanted to forget it, I was afraid of disturbing your rest, but if you don't call your mother, you won't worry......" There was a mother's apologetic voice on the other side of the phone.

Maybe it was because of the alcohol and being woken up by the phone, his mind was a little confused, he seemed to have heard these words once just now, was he dreaming?

While chatting with his colleagues, he heard them say that there is a strange feeling called "immediacy", which means that he feels inexplicably familiar with what is happening, as if he has experienced or dreamed of it before.

Is this what is called immediacy?

"Mom...... Did you just call me?" he asked, rubbing his forehead.

The mother's voice on the other side of the phone paused, and then said with obvious doubts: "No, Mom was eating just now, I didn't call you, are you dreaming?" Mom is not good, shouldn't call you while you are sleeping......

"It's okay, I'm not sleepy. ”

"Are you all right, when will you go back to China?" asked my mother.

"It's okay, I'm in good health, and it's tomorrow to return home. ”

"Oh, then come to the house for dinner when you come back, Mom will make you your favorite braised pork ribs. ”

"Okay. ”

If it was usual, he would find an excuse to hang up, but the strange feeling just now always haunted him. So he switched the call to the background, flipped out the communication records, and saw that there was a call record under his mother's number half an hour ago, and the call duration was 1 minute.

Guo Dongyue was completely sleepy, and sat up from the bed.

"Mom?"

"What's wrong, Dongyue?"

"Did you just call me?"

The mother smiled, "Didn't this kid just ask, why did you ask again?

"No, no, Mom, look at the dialing record of your phone, did you call me half an hour ago?" he said eagerly.

My mother was slow to operate the phone, and it took half a minute before I heard her say, "Strange, when did I call?"

"Don't you remember?" Guo Dongyue's cold sweat was about to come down, this matter was weird, either it was a supernatural event, or something was wrong......

"I don't remember, did I accidentally dial it by mistake?"

Guo Dongyue didn't say anything, it is possible to dial by mistake, but is the memory of answering the phone before also false?
