Chapter 432: A Few Steps Away

The bell tower in the distance has already rang the bell of the early morning, I stood in the wind and rain, wiped the rain off my face, it turned out that in the square west of the old city, there was no trace of rice color, if each other met is a game, then this game will also end on this rainy night, but I am so unwilling, because I have worked hard to redeem, and now it has evolved into only my own futility

I was a little sad, but I couldn't even light a cigarette that could release some sadness in the rain, so I choked up and sang the song "ifyouwantme" again in the middle of the square, I was full of frustration, I only felt that my survival was a lie to the whole world, but there was no one who was willing to believe me anymore, so I really experienced the loneliness of being flooded by the rain!

It was a terrible night for me

I finally closed my eyes, refusing to feel the world, as if even the rain had suddenly stopped, and I could no longer feel the coldness of the cold rain on my neck, thinking about how sad I was on this night, so sad that I really lost my sense of the world

In the frustration, I opened my eyes again, only to find that there was already a floral umbrella above my head, and a faint fragrance permeated the umbrella, and then I saw her white and slender hand holding the handle of the umbrella She came, but I couldn't control my feelings, and I couldn't help myself for a moment, so that I forgot to look back at her and hold her.

Her other hand wrapped around my waist, leaned on my shoulder, and whispered to me, "I knew you would come."

I finally turned my body, took her into my arms with both hands, and asked, "But where were you when I came, I was already desperate, you know?" ”

"I've been waiting for you here, sitting behind the sculpture and people coming and going, I don't know how many times I've walked through! I was also desperate, but you're finally here! ”

I looked back, and sure enough, in this square, behind the sculpture was the blind spot of sight, fortunately, I sang this song "ifyouwantme", otherwise we might really meet here, but unfortunately passed by because of the obscuration of a sculpture.

I hugged her tightly: "So this time we don't say it again, let alone make a lifetime of distance because of a few steps, okay?" ”

Mi Cai nodded, and then fell on my shoulder, I exhaled heavily, lamenting the impermanence of fate, but even more grateful that fate suddenly overturned what I thought before, we finally met here because of unfinished fate!

The rain was still falling, and I put my rain-stained hand on her shoulder, but I was still in a trance, and I didn't believe it, we really started again in this rain, and all the tortures caused by separation would be washed away by this rain? Anyway, I don't want to think about the past, and I just want to go back to that coffee shop called "West of the Old City" for a hot cup of coffee, and then talk to her about her recent life

I held an umbrella, hugged Mi Cai, and the two walked in unison, along the old alley that had no breath to the coffee shop, when I arrived, I was glad to find that the coffee shop had not closed, the unknown owner had fulfilled his promise, he was still waiting for me, and I finally brought this woman who could drink coffee with me.

Mi Cai looked at the signboard of the shop pΓΉ and read softly: "Does this have any special meaning to the west of the old city?" ”

"There should be, I'm not sure, but after drinking a cup of coffee with the same name here, I decided to go to that square to find you, because this cup of coffee really has the taste of the west of the old city, it's too bitter!"

"I want to taste it"

I nodded, dropped my umbrella, put my arm around Mi Cai's shoulders and walked towards the coffee shop, where the owner in a denim shirt was sitting under a kerosene lamp smoking alone, flipping through a magazine in his hand, and I said to him, "Boss, two glasses west of the old city." ”

He snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and motioned for us to sit down, and I took Mi Cai to find a table near the window and sat down, Mi Cai still looked at the coffee shop and said, "I think this must be a coffee shop with a story." ”

I smiled and said, "If I can't find you today, I will open a similar coffee shop to express my lifelong regrets!" ”

"So you think this coffee shop was born out of regret?"

I nodded, and then looked at the boss who was grinding coffee beans, his silence, I had seen in Robben's body, at that time Robben was living the most decadent period of his life, the so-called west of the old city, in fact, is a kind of despair waiting for transformation, just like this old city, the direction to the west is full of eye-catching words, has been extinct a qiΔ“ vitality, and when it can be reborn with a new attitude, no one can give an accurate deadline.

After a while, the boss brought two cups of "West of the Old City" to me and Mi Cai, and then returned to the bar, and continued to read the unfinished magazine, I kept the habit just now, stirred back and forth with a spoon several times, and then drank a cup of coffee in one gulp, the warmth in the bitterness, immediately dispelled the cold of my body drenched by the rain, and I felt an inexplicable refreshment again.

Mi Cai looked at me in disbelief, because no kind of coffee should be drunk in this way, I looked back at her, but my heart felt grounded because she sat face to face with me again, I knew that the current situation was not a dream, she was so real in the flickering lights.

She took a sip of her coffee cup, but she didn't have much expression, and I remembered that she liked to drink this plain coffee because it had the best refreshing effect.

After a moment of silence, I finally asked her in this flickering tone, "We met today, do you still count?" ”

Mi Cai looked at me and nodded: "Count, otherwise I wouldn't be waiting for you in the square, it's just that you're too stupid to come here so late!" ”

I didn't refute Mi Cai, but I wasn't stupid, I was just full of suspicion in the despair of not being able to find it, so I didn't expect her to hold on there, thanks to this cup west of the old city; In this way, I can meet this coffee shop, but also a manifestation of my unfinished fate with Mi Cai, maybe we are destined to be together, from the moment we meet, our souls have been bound together, although the body can sometimes be paralyzed!

"Are you really planning to marry Wei Ran earlier?"

This question that was suddenly asked by me made Mi Cai a little surprised, she looked at me but didn't answer immediately, but whether she wanted to answer it or not, but these are all stalks between us, so I want to know the answer, although I am a little anxious.
