08. The meaning of staying
A week after the start of school, the head teacher, Mr. Chen, asked the class leader to draw a countdown on the blackboard at the back of the classroom, and there were still 120 days before the college entrance examination.
I looked back at the numbers on it, and then at someone who was talking to Yueyue, and felt that there were some things that I really couldn't understand.
It's been a week, and Li Shu hasn't said a word to me. I wrote a small note to Li Shu, but he didn't reply to me.
At noon, when I ate in the cafeteria, I deliberately sat in the place where he often sits, but someone seemed to ignore me, and when he saw me, he raised his foot and walked to the other side.
Before coming to school, I locked the "Slam Dunk" and the diary given to me by Li Shu into a treasure chest, but I didn't expect that the relationship between us was the same, just like comic books, all locked up.
Growing up so big, I still understand the fickleness of girls, but I don't understand what the fickleness of boys is.
If it was because I was too fierce to him on the phone, then I already wrote an apology on my little note, and there was no need for him to be so stingy.
Yueyue was drawing a newspaper, and he was talking to her with his head up, not paying attention to me at all.
One day like this, two days like this, a week and still like this.
I gently flicked the ballpoint pen and pretended not to see.
After school on Wednesday afternoon, Lu Xiaoping and I were writing test papers in the classroom, and Yueyue suddenly appeared in front of her, looked at me with a smile, and said, "Ranran, I have something to tell you." ”
"What's wrong?"
"You come out, it's inconvenient to say here." Yueyue took my arm and motioned for me to go outside the classroom.
Lu Xiaoping and I glanced at each other, and then followed Yueyue out.
Walking to the door of the classroom, Yueyue suddenly turned her face to look at me, and said mysteriously: "Ranran, someone asked me to give you something." ”
I looked at her curiously and asked, "What?" ”
She pointed to the pocket in her clothes, looked at me with a smile, and said, "Here'......"
I curiously stretched out my hand and inserted it into Yueyue's pocket, and touched something with my fingertips, which seemed to be paper, and my first reaction was RMB, and I happily took it out, only to realize that it was a love letter.
When we were in our third year of high school, mobile phones were not widely available, and mobile phones were also banned in schools. So once there is any problem, it is all a note, and if there is a confession, a love letter will be written.
Looking up at Yueyue, I saw her looking at me with a smile and said, "Someone asked me to give it to you." ”
In fact, receiving a love letter is not a particularly bragging concern, the key is that in such a tense sprint stage, who will have the leisure to write me a love letter?
A figure quickly flashed in his mind, and when he raised his eyes to look at the back door, he saw Li Shu, who was holding the ball in his left hand, walking in.
Just as my eyes met, I embarrassedly lowered my head, looked at the note in my hand, and walked towards the end of the hallway.
What did Li Shu write to me? Is he aware of his problem? Or is it? Are we going to reconcile?
With this curiosity, I carefully opened the origami, which was popular at that time to fold love letters into a heart shape, and after a while, my forehead was sweating urgently, and I spread the letter neatly.
After reading two lines, I understood.
It was not Li Shu who wrote the letter, but another person. A boy.
I swallowed softly, always feeling that such a good thing could not happen to me, on the one hand, I was disappointed in Li Shu, and on the other hand, I was a little curious about the person who wrote the letter.
When I returned to class, I suddenly realized that most people knew about the love letter I had received.
Lu Xiaoping said that as soon as I walked out of the class, the class leader informed Li Shu of the incident, and other students also heard it.
The originally boring learning environment got some fun because of my little love letter, but no one knows who wrote this letter.
And what I care about the most is Li Shu, who hasn't spoken to me for nearly two weeks, what is his attitude towards this matter.
Glancing at the back seat, he turned sideways to look out the window, still holding the glass in his hand.
It was the water that Yueyue poured for her.
In fact, I can see that he doesn't say that it has been so long since school started, as long as Li Shu is in the classroom, the two of them are almost together, and as for me, I am directly treated as air. If I don't understand this reaction, then I'm a fool!
It just so happened that Yueyue came in through the back door, collided with my eyes, walked over, and said mysteriously: "Ranran, hurry up and reply to the letter!" ”
I turned my face awkwardly, stunned for not uttering a word.
I didn't know what to say, I chatted with Lu Xiaoping in the homework book, Lu Xiaoping read the so-called love letter and suggested that I reply to the letter, and the reason for the reply was that she couldn't get used to Li Shu for so many days and I turned a blind eye.
I have always felt that Lu Xiaoping is a girl who is thousands of times more docile than me, I didn't expect to start a fire, more ruthless than me, she was right, Li Shu is so dry, it is typical to break off friendship with me.
I wasn't embarrassed to tell Lu Xiaoping what happened to me and Li Shu that day, but I believe that even if I didn't say it, Lu Xiaoping could understand my thoughts.
That night, I simply replied with two sentences and handed the letter to Yueyue.
I need to say here about this boy who wrote me love letters, at first, I was suspicious of his vision, after all, it is difficult for a man like me to stand up and distinguish between male and female, it is difficult for a boy to like it, and later, I was moved by the sincerity between the lines.
The impression here is not liking, but real, which can be used as an object of confiding.
I don't know why the boy chose Yueyue to be the messenger, Lu Xiaoping said it might be because she was the class leader. But none of this matters, the important thing is that I use writing letters as a cold war, and some people don't care at all.
As a girl, being treated like this, I believe that it is impossible for anyone not to react.
At first, I just felt that there was a problem between us and didn't make it clear, but later I found out that when a person wants to stay away from you, it's a big thing, and it's a reason to leave.
I have a limited thickness on my skin, and I don't want to put it on again and again.
I would still go shopping for snacks with Lu Xiaoping, or would I ask for field math problems, but I would not mention anyone.
Half a month later, Li Shu and I seemed to have reached an agreement that as long as we met someone in a certain place, we would immediately turn around and leave.
On Wednesday afternoon, the class teacher suddenly proposed that everyone go out to exercise, and the oppressive atmosphere was relieved, and the boys in the class went to the playground to play basketball, and the girls walked in the playground.
Tian Ye is the sports committee member of the class, and he actually planned a basketball game for us to watch.
I didn't want to go, but Tian Ye was usually very good to me and Lu Xiaoping, and after the two of them persuaded me at the same time, I followed to the playground.
Maybe it's because Li Shu was a little famous before, as soon as the game was released, even the freshmen and sophomores of high school followed, and the entire basketball court surrounded a big circle, one inside and one outside.
There was a cheerleading group in the class, and a group of girls stood together, shouting for the second class of the third year.
Lu Xiaoping and I didn't follow, and were pulled to the other side by the field. In March, the cold of winter has receded by half a minute. In the breeze, I couldn't help but see the white jersey.
"Hey, Gao Ziran, can you do me a favor later?" The figure of the field suddenly appeared in front of me and said to me with a smile.
"What's the matter, just say it!" I took Lu Xiaoping's hand and hurriedly withdrew my eyes.
"It's time for the game, can you help me take off my clothes?" Tian Ye pointed to the coat on his body and said.
"Such a big deal, of course there is no problem!" I patted my chest and responded directly.
"Really, that's bothering you!" Tian Ye hurriedly took off his coat, threw it at my hand, and ran straight towards the center of the court.
Lu Xiaoping sighed, looked at me, and said, "Gao Ziran, you are miserable." ”
Where am I miserable? The reason for this is because there was a popular saying in our high school at that time that when a boy playing basketball handed over his coat to a girl, he was telling other people that this person was his girlfriend.
In short, I took the field's coat and agreed to be his girlfriend.
What international jokes? Is there any mistake? I didn't know! No wonder I heard a sigh when I ran over the field just now, just because of this?
I don't care about other people's eyes, what I care about is Li Shu.
Raising his eyes to look at Li Shu, he didn't have a coat on his body. swept around, and sure enough, the dress was in Yueyue's hands.
Some things can't be said to be coincidental, but the feeling is really hard to describe.
Li Shu is 1.78 meters, Tian Ye is 1.83 meters, both are athletes, and the first half ended quickly.
During the intermission, Lu Xiaoping reminded me to get a bottle of mineral water, I hurriedly ran towards the place where the water was released, and just stretched out my hand to the mineral water bottle, and it happened that the other hand also reached over.
When I looked up, it turned out to be Li Shu.
His face was also stunned, and the next second, he turned on the unmanned mode again.
I was a little annoyed, so I snatched the bottle of water from his hand, ran to Lu Xiaoping, and handed it to Tian Ye.
Originally, this was just a trivial matter, but what I didn't expect was that in the second half, I obviously felt that something was wrong with Li Shu. Obviously, he could pass the ball to the field, but he didn't pass it, and after a few times, the score of the third class caught up.
I don't know if he's targeting the field, or if he's targeting me.
Li Shu was too self-conscious, and he came down three times and twice, which made the other classmates a little dissatisfied.
Although the ball game was won, everyone broke up unhappily. Before the crowd had dispersed, he stubbornly walked away.
I naively wondered if his behavior would have something to do with me.
In order to thank Lu Xiaoping and me for our logistical work, Tian Ye specially invited us to eat snowballs. Before leaving, I secretly turned my face, but Li Shu's figure was already gone.
This evening self-study, Li Shu did not come.
I wrote my careful thoughts on the pen pal's letterhead, poured out my troubles, and in a blink of an eye, it was April.
Li Shu often sleeps in class, and the teacher wants to remind him to embarrass him with questions, but unfortunately, he can solve them, and over time, the teacher gets used to it.
We talked about the school we were going to enter in the future, Lu Xiaoping said that she wanted to go to the Chinese Department of Peking University, and Tian Ye said that when he went to Zhejiang University and asked me, I was confused.
I'm also trying to work hard, but this IQ really can't go up by eating walnuts.
I think I'll have to go to a local university.
I knew that Li Shu would definitely be in several colleges and universities, but I was destined to not be able to keep up with him.
At the end of April, the test scores of the second model came out, and my score line was still more than 20 points short of the undergraduate level. Looking at the first and second places in the grade, I felt a sense of melancholy in my heart.
It's Li Shu and Hu Yueyue.
I thought it was the end of it between us, but I didn't expect that on the afternoon of the first week of May, the physics teacher had made another mistake and asked me to get up and answer the questions.
Roll call, naturally the name will be called, when Gao Ziran's name just came out of the physics teacher's mouth, there was a sudden sound in the back row of the classroom, and he turned his face away, and Li Shu stood up in a daze.
The sound was the sound of his stool falling.
The physics teacher smiled and said, "Classmate Li Shu, I obviously shouted Gao Ziran just now, what are you doing standing up?" Have you changed your name? ”
The whole class burst into laughter.
My face turned red, and I turned my face to look at Li Shu, who also looked at me in a daze, and at this second, I was really excited.
There is a countdown written on the back of the blackboard, and there are still twenty days to go before the college entrance examination.
I suddenly had an impulse, and this impulse instantly broke through my brain, and I couldn't help but write a small note to Li Shu again.
"Li Shu, I don't know what I did wrong to make you hate me so much, but, tonight, can you go to the fifth floor and talk to me?"
Just when I was nervous, I received a note from Li Shu.
He only replied to me with one word, okay.
After class, I rushed to the staircase without hesitation, the dark entrance of the building, I rushed up with joy, but forgot that the real key person has not yet arrived.
With the cool summer breeze caressing my cheeks and the laughter of a group of children in junior high school, I stood at the top of the stairs, staring intently at the light, not daring to blink.
I was slapped in the back, and I screamed in horror, but my mouth was covered.
When I looked up, it was Li Shu.
I forgot that there are two doors at the top of the staircase.
His arm just wrapped around me, one hand over my mouth, and his eyes were gentle, as if it wasn't me.
We looked at each other, my heart beat rapidly, and before I could speak, the hand covering my mouth had already let go, and after two steps back, Li Shu's kiss fell.
With the first two techniques, I also learned how to cater to him, and his kisses were so hot that I almost couldn't breathe.
At the end, he slowly let go of me, a pair of black eyes glowing bewitching in the night, looked at me, and said, "Gao Ziran, from today onwards, we should not have any more contacts. ”
I've seen a word in comic books before, it's called heartbreak. At that time, I didn't fully understand that feeling, but the moment Li Shu said this, I suddenly felt that I understood.
I understood what it meant to be heartbroken, but I didn't understand why he was doing it.
"Why?" I stubbornly looked up and asked.
"There's no why." Li Shu turned around and prepared to leave.
I suddenly became irritable and yelled at Li Shu's back: "Li Shu, what do you mean?" Am I not in the slightest place in your heart? I held my hand and kissed my mouth, did you hate me so much just because I didn't sleep with you? ”
"It's not!" Li Shu's tone was cold, as if a knife had been inserted into my heart.
"Then why are you saying such a thing? If you want to keep along, don't tease me? Since you don't like me, why did you kiss me just now? Since you don't like me and the teacher calls me by name, what are you doing standing up? Li Shu, my Gao Ziran is a frank and unrestrained person, if you like it, if you don't like it, if you don't like it, today, I want you to say a word, what you just said, don't take it seriously! ”
Tears were already flowing uncontrollably, and I bit my lip to keep myself from crying. Even if I'm angry, I still care, I don't know why I'm so stubborn, I know, there are feelings that can't be hidden.
Li Shu turned to look at me, the expression on his face was very indifferent, and said, "Gao Ziran, you study hard." ”
I looked at Li Shu in surprise, and in the next second, I was sure that these words really came out of his mouth.
I don't know why Li Shu is so ruthless, he is always like leaving, so I can't see clearly.
On May 6th, my parents came to see me at school and handed me a bright red notebook.
They said that they had arranged a university for me in Australia and would leave at the end of the month.
If Li Shu hadn't been so ruthless, I don't think I would have left. But what's the point of staying?
