Chapter 2: Icy Beauty
In the sound of raindrops hitting the glass, the time flew by for another half hour, and I decided not to wait, to wait any longer, not to be graceful, but to be crazy.
Of course, I can also call her according to the number she called me in the morning and ask why she couldn't make it to the appointment on time, but I don't think it's necessary, it's not me who lost the phone, it shouldn't be my urgent business, I'm too enthusiastic, it's as if I have an intention.
I have no opinion on her no-show, just kill the endless boredom here, in fact, the waiting period is not boring, at least there is expectation in my heart, with expectations, all the waiting is worth it, I have always thought so.
I picked up the red leather bag next to me and was about to leave, when a woman came from the top of the stairs, our eyes stitched together.
Because of my work, I often deal with car models, and I have seen a lot of beautiful women with both body and face, but I was still attracted to her when I first saw her, and I couldn't help but take a few more looks.
At this time, it was late autumn, but she was only wearing a thin black windbreaker, although she was wearing a black windbreaker, she couldn't hide her beauty and elegance, but her expression was cold and indifferent, making it impossible to tell whether she was happy or angry, sad or happy, the hazy light reflected on her fair face, it seemed to be real and illusory, it was not like a person in this earthly world, if "beautiful as a fairy" had a standard, it was her.
"Could it be that fairies also use mobile phones?" , A ridiculous thought suddenly flashed in my mind, but this is obviously impossible, where is there a fairy in this world, there is no shortage of women who are more beautiful than her, but her temperament is too unique, in this fast-paced, and impetuous modern world, I dare to guarantee that whoever sees her for the first time will feel the same way as me.
We looked at each other like this, her gaze moving from my face to the little red leather bag I was carrying, and she looked at me again, this time with an inquiring look.
I nodded affirmatively.
.........
She ordered a cup of mocha, I still asked for a cup of black tea, we sat opposite the window, the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, so that a layer of fog formed on the glass, the outside was very blurry, only barely saw the orange light from the street lamp, but the rain was still dripping.
The background music in the coffee shop suddenly changed to a Chicago band's "IfYouLeaveMeNo", and I listened to it while humming along to the rhythm, but she was always silent, not even mentioning the bag, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.
Since she was not in a hurry to ask for a purse, I was happy to sit with her, and it was a godsend to have the opportunity to sit and drink coffee with such a beautiful woman after a boring day at work, and although she regarded me as air, it did not prevent me from entertaining myself.
The carousel music was once again on "IfYouLeaveMeNo", but there was very little communication between us, and she didn't seem to be good at words, which made the dry humor I was good at useless.
I handed her the little leather bag: "Look at all the things in it." ”
"Thank you!" She took the purse, but did not open it, maintaining her original speed, and took a sip of coffee without hurry.
..........
"I think I can live alone, I think I can pretend that I didn't love, let the tears warm me in the cold night, I think I can get used to living alone, erase your promises in my memory, love is a dream and I overslept........" After a while, the phone rang again.
The bell rang repeatedly, but she was indifferent, just a little dazed looking out of the window, this kind of dazed appearance on her face, but it is a kind of heart-pounding alternative beauty, for a moment I wondered, such a woman will also be trapped by love?
The answer is yes, a person who is perfect in love, who would pretend to be sad and use "Living Alone" as their own mobile phone ringtone?
"Your phone is ringing." I raised my voice to remind her.
She finally came back to her senses, but instead of looking at the red leather bag with the phone, she stared at me.......
I was a little uncomfortable, the first time she looked at me so intently since we met, I wrapped the scarf that was originally only around me three times around my face, only showing my eyes, which was a very funny move, and at the same time muttered: "Look at what to see!" ”
My gesture finally made her smile slightly, but the smile that should have been bright was fleeting, replaced by a cold and confused expression.
When the phone finally stopped, she was still looking at me, I took out the phone from her purse, made a more confused expression than hers, took a picture of myself with her phone, handed it to her, and said, "Don't look at me like that........ If you think I'm handsome, you can see the picture on your phone later. ”
She ignored my slightly provocative behavior, just took the phone from me and said nothing.
I looked at her again, it seemed that the word cold had been engraved on her face, and after a long silence, I realized that I should go, but deep down I didn't want to go, and getting along with such a beautiful woman, staying for a second more felt like it was earned, not to mention, this farewell is likely to mean goodbye, and I actually suffered from gains and losses.
She didn't urge me to go, she didn't talk to me, which made me embarrassed, I suddenly despised myself, is it really that a person's life is too scared, and he can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman?
Under the intense self-contempt, I finally said to her, "I'm leaving." ”
"Hmm."
Her answer made me collapse, saying a few more words will not affect your beauty, why are you so sorry for words like gold, is it possible that I Zhang Yixi will make you speechless like this?
Frustrated, I picked up the gloves that had been placed in front of the table and prepared to leave, and as I was leaving, I glanced at her out of the corner of my eye, and she was still sitting there in her original position, looking at the cars outside the window in a daze.
........
In an instant, I went downstairs and stood in front of the coffee shop, ready to leave, but I couldn't help but glance into the coffee shop through the glass, because of the fog, her figure was a little blurred........ I smiled, but I despised even more why I was so concerned and nostalgic for a strange woman, could it be because she was beautiful? If that's the reason, I'd really have to find a piece of tofu and hit it head-on, because losing immunity to beautiful women is a terrible thing in my opinion!
Just as I was condemning myself, a small patch of clarity suddenly appeared on the glass window of the coffee shop, and it was she who wiped the fog from the glass with her hand, and our eyes were unexpectedly joined again.
I have already made up my mind to leave, but this scene has happened, is it fate or coincidence? To my surprise, she didn't look away and kept looking at me.
"It must be fate, otherwise how could I have picked up her bag alone in the vast sea of people?" Thinking about it, my mood suddenly improved, and I beckoned to her and motioned for her to come down.
My sudden action stunned her at first, but she made a gesture to make me wait, and then I saw her get up and pick up the bag in front of the table and leave her seat.
For a moment I realized what it meant to be excited, but on the surface I waited calmly for her to come down from the upstairs of the coffee shop.
