After Ji Mo left, Tong Lele curled up in a corner of the dance studio, completely lacking the high-spirited eyes just now.
I pushed away the chessboard next to her and sat down next to her: "Lele." ”
She raised her eyelids: "You still don't go to class?" The last one seems to be a bald lesson. ”
"Are you jealous?" I smiled and nudged her.
"Hmm."
"Ji Mo only has you in his heart, and aren't you childhood sweethearts? That feeling is simply solid. ”
Tong Lele rested his chin on his knee: "It's because I know him too well that I'm so scared." ”
I was silent.
She continued: "I moved to Jiangbei with my dad and them, and in a small alley, my parents were moving, and I couldn't find my former playmates, so I ran out of the car, and wanted to go back to find my friends, and as soon as I got out of the car, I saw Amer sitting alone on the wooden horse in front of the small shop, and he was eating ice cream, and the ice cream snowballs had two, one milky and one chocolate. ”
"My parents told me that as long as you smile at someone, they will give you delicious food, so I walked up to Amer, I smiled stupidly at him, he licked the ice cream, and his face was on his face."
Tong Lele said, a light smile on his lips: "No one has ever smiled at me like this, I have always felt that my smile can bring happiness to others, but I found that the boy in front of me doesn't seem to be able to smile, but I really want to eat ice cream." ”
"And then? Did you get it? I asked.
She smiled: "I snatched the ice cream in his hand, grabbed it and ran, and my dad slapped my ass when he saw that I had snatched his ice cream, and I cried so much." ”
"My dad went to the shop to buy a box of ice cream and gave it back to Amer, Amer took the box of ice cream, walked up to me, and gave me the ice cream, I cried and smoked, I really wanted the ice cream in his hand, but my dad was behind him, I didn't dare, so I said, let's eat together."
I listened attentively and didn't interrupt again.
Tong Lele smiled: "Obviously he was the one who was robbed of the ice cream, but it was me who cried." ”
"Amer's house is just across the street from my house, the alley is full of warmth, we often hold the food cooked by my parents, listen to my parents' instructions, go to different neighbors' houses to deliver food and some snacks, in short, it's a mess! Sometimes I hate that politeness, you know? If I start eating at 12 o'clock at noon, it will be 1 o'clock after I finish delivering the food. ”
"It's good, you must have had a lot of friends when you were younger, right?" I sincerely envy Tong Lele.
If I had to go to my neighbors, I would have to walk a little way, and I was too lazy to walk, and the neighbors rarely interacted with each other, and everyone seemed to be busy.
Although there are often parties at home, there are not many children who come to my house, so I can only play with my brother, and I don't like the things my brother plays, so my childhood seems to have come from watching anime.
The joy between Tong Lele's eyebrows seemed to return: "Then for sure, there is one who is also in the river!" The others went to other schools, and we would meet up when we had time, and our favorite was to go to Amer's house. ”
I asked, "He's the biggest?" ”
"No, he doesn't have any adults in his family, just a grandmother."
"Oh." I feel a little embarrassed by this question.
Tong Lele didn't care, and continued: "The reason why Amer can't laugh may be that he has no parents, I think he is too pitiful, all the children in our alley think so, whenever there is something fun and delicious, they will give him the best things, he will want to repay us, we will ask him to give us tutoring, Amer is very good at studying." ”
I nodded in agreement.
"Amer is an introverted child, he doesn't show his feelings, he's very shy, he's very easy-going, I think I'm miserable, I may have a crush on him all the time." There was some bitterness in her words.
"So, how did you get together?"
"On Christmas Eve, a group of children in our alley gathered at his house again, and he happened to win the first place in an Olympiad at that time, with a prize of 300 yuan, so we bullied him and asked him to buy us McDonald's fried chicken, and I went with him to buy fried chicken."
"When I was on the road, it happened to be snowing, the first snow of that year, it was very beautiful, I was watching the snow outside, he bought fried chicken in McDonald's, and when he came out, he had an extra cup of chocolate sundae in his hand, and he said, only buy it for me, and you are not allowed to tell others."
"Ji Mo is a warm-hearted boy." I rate.
She nodded with happiness on her face: "Yes, at that time, I hugged him, and he smiled at me, that was the first time he smiled, and he smiled very cute, very beautiful." ”
Maybe Tong Lele didn't pay attention, or maybe Tong Lele was not as tall as Ji Mo, since I met them, I have seen Ji Mo's smile many times, that kind of doting eyes only have your smile, envy others, but Tong Lele who bowed his head didn't notice it.
I didn't break it, I believe that one day, Tong Lele will find that Ji Mo loves her more than himself.
Tong Lele ignored me, still reminiscing about the past: "However, he didn't confess, I was so disappointed, after I went back, I didn't have the mood to eat fried chicken at all, and it didn't take long for everyone to start playing games." ”
"Write your wish in a red sock, after the disruption, everyone takes it casually, and whoever gets the socks is whoever gets it, it's Santa Claus."
Suddenly, Tong Lele patted me on the shoulder, his eyes were excited: "I'll tell you, the socks I caught are Amer's!" ”
I touched my shoulder that was hurt and asked helplessly, "What is his wish?" ”
"He wants a snowman." Tong Lele's lips were full of smiles that couldn't be hidden: "On Christmas morning, I didn't eat breakfast, so I went to build a snowman in front of his house, and when I built it, I went to call him to get up. ”
"He went home to get the camera, I was standing in the snow, nervously combing my hair and sorting out my clothes, but unfortunately, I got up too early at that time, I didn't even wash my face, it was dirty, I looked at him and saw that he shouldn't come out so quickly, so I rushed home to brush my teeth and wash my face, and secretly used my mother's cosmetics, put on makeup for the first time, I was like a ghost, and I couldn't go out to see him."
"He came to my house to call me, I was in the room, I was crying with all my makeup, and I could only tell him, I was sleepy, I got up so early, I had to catch up on sleep, let him go home, God knows how much I wanted to take pictures with him."
"I washed my face and cried under the covers, and after a long time he came, knocked on my door, and said, "He was waiting for me below, and when he was gone, I found that he had left a red apple on my desk and a post-it note."
The school bell rang and everyone else in the dance studio was gone.
Originally, I was supposed to go to work in the cafeteria, but seeing that Tong Lele was talking endlessly, I was also a little interested in their past, so I stayed for the time being.
I quipped, "The post-it note doesn't say, I like you, right?" ”
Tong Lele shook his head: "He wrote, gift." ”
"What do you mean?"
She rolled her eyes at me, "Apple! Christmas gifts. ”
"Oh."
She gave me another roll of the eye: "Amer is my Santa Claus." ”
I was surprised: "You just want apples?" ”
She nodded and shook her head, "My wish is that I want Amer to send me red apples." ”
This wish is a little obvious.
I said, "Aren't you afraid that someone will take your heart's desire?" How embarrassing is this for your little friend? ”
"No, we play well, and we always think in crooked places."
"Just you think crookedly?" I laughed.
She glared at me: "Pure friendship, pure friendship." ”
I sighed, "Really? Are you and Jimo pure friendship now? ”
"Well, actually, it's not just that I want to be crooked, everyone grew up in an alley, more or less, a few will want to be crooked, and there are not many who can succeed."
"You can do it, tell me, how the hell are you together?"
"Are you stupid? Don't you know that on Christmas Eve, when a boy gives a girl an apple, it is a confession? ”
"Really?"
Tong Lele held his forehead, a little helpless: "Lulu, you, really, oh, I'm speechless!" ”
I'm ashamed.
Where did he offend her?
"This is a foreigner's custom, and as a Chinese, it doesn't matter if you don't understand." She took a deep breath.
"Eun." I asked curiously, "And then?" Are you out? ”
She bowed her head: "Well, he was standing next to the snowman with his camera, and as soon as I passed, he smiled at me, and he called a buddy in the alley and asked him to take a picture of us, and just before he pressed the shutter, he reached out and hugged me." ”
"Not bad! Very Man! I praised.
Tong Lele smiled: "Then, we were together." ”
"Who confesses first?"
"No, that's it, tacitly."
"Oh." I thought for a moment and asked, "What does that have to do with your jealousy?" ”
As soon as he mentioned this, Tong Lele was like a deflated ball, and lowered his face: "Amer is only surrounded by our group of children in the alley, and there have never been any girls by his side, he is also very boring, and the fun is also very boring, you can see that he likes to play Go, how can any girl like such a boring thing?" ”
I coughed: "That Situ classmate is not ......"
"Ahh Tong Lele went crazy: "Situ Yue is different! She was born in a scholarly family, and those who learn to paint are sullen. ”
Situ Yue...... Sounds familiar. ”
"Ahh I told you last time, genius painter, Situ Yue! ”
I realized, "Oh! It's kind of like a painter. ”
Could it be that learning to paint is full of melancholy temperament like Situ Yue?
I looked at Tong Le and smiled: "You don't think you are inferior to Situ Yue, and then you are worried that Ji Mo will be robbed, right?" ”
"How is that possible!"
"So what are you worried about?"
"Amer smiled at her, she and Amer are very compatible, they have a common topic, why, why." Tears filled Tong Lele's eyes: "Why did I take the trouble to get close to the person, why was she Situ Yue able to make him laugh without much effort?" I've known Amer for almost ten years before he smiled at me, how could she, Situ Yue, make him laugh within a few days of knowing Ammer! ”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.
I'm a little dumbfounded.
The technical work of comforting people, it seems that I need to hone a lot, and thanks to Tong Lele, I recognize the reality that I can't comfort people, it seems that I still don't want to comfort Ding Baozi, maybe I will still make Ding Baozi cry.
Tong Lele cried fiercely, and kicked the chessboard on the side far away: "Amer, this wood!" Are you blind? Why don't you see that I'm the best? Lulu, I always feel that I am inferior! However, I don't know what's wrong with me, as long as I see him, I can't be calm. ”
I walked over and hugged her gently, gently patting her on the back with my hand.
She cried and asked me, "Lulu, am I stupid?" Amer is so smart, but I'm trying so hard to catch up with him. Situ Yue is so smart and beautiful, and his family background is good, and he can accompany Amer to play Go, but I can't play Go, what should I do? ”
"Just be yourself." I say.
"I'm so ugly, I don't know how to wear makeup, I don't have a beautiful dress, and I'm not smart, will Amer get tired of me?" Tong Lele cried so loudly that his voice was hoarse.
I can't understand how a girl can cry until her voice is hoarse for a boy.
However, I think this bell must be tied to the bell.
I looked at Ji Mo, who had been standing at the door and listening silently, and motioned with my eyes for him to hurry over and take his little girlfriend away.
He didn't look at me in his eyes, but looked at Tong Lele with a complicated look, that kind of eyes mixed with guilt, joy, happiness, distress, etc., I can't understand, how can a person's eyes be full of so many emotions?
Just when I realized that I had forgotten to make an appointment with Ye Banfeng to print the test papers together, I hurriedly shouted to Ji Mo at the door: "Ji Mo, you are here!" ”
When Tong Lele heard this, he immediately stood up, hurriedly wiped his tears, and hurriedly cleaned up the black and white chess pieces that filled the floor.
"Ah Le." Ji Mo held Tong Lele's wrist.
She turned her face, her red eyes bent, and the smile of the past appeared on her face again, only this time with a little bitterness.
Ji Mo bowed his head, kissed her crying and swollen eyes, and then smiled: "Don't take it, I don't want it, come with me to dinner." ”
It is estimated that in Ji Mo's heart, Go is not as important as his sweetheart after all.
After Ji Mo and Tong Lele left, I picked up the black and white chess pieces in the dance studio alone.
When Tong Lele was crying, a sentence that Wang Xiaobo said flashed in my mind: "I feel that I love you, and from now on, I can't be indifferent to you at any time." ”
When we fall in love with someone, we only have that person in our eyes, so is it possible to turn a blind eye?
"Lin Lu."
Suddenly, someone called out to me outside the dance room.
I looked up and saw him smiling at me with his bag behind his shoulder.
He took off his shoes and said, "Do you know how long I've been looking for you?" ”
