39 Missed Appointments

"How could Uncle Fang be so wise? He must be the champion of some kind of mouth-cannon contest! No way! I can't be brainwashed by him. ”

Muttering bad words about Uncle Fang, I returned home and continued to rest.

said that it was rest, but in fact, the injury on my foot was almost healed, so now I am paralyzed on the sofa in a daze.

"What is firmly looking ahead, in order to become stronger. It's the same as not saying it. ”

Thinking of what Uncle Fang said in the broken temple, I secretly took a sip. When I first heard it, I was inspired, but now I just think it's completely empty chicken soup.

Chicken soup that smells good, but tastes like nothing at all.

Sure enough, it's still a rotten adult, right?

Thinking so, I casually turned on the TV and rummaged through what was going on.

And then.

I was bored and had my rare time off.

。。。。。。。。。

I was planning to do something fun during my break, but I didn't expect that I would just lie down on the sofa, lie on the bed, watch TV, flip through the books I had bought, and finish the afternoon.

I solved the lunch problem by myself.

Living alone for a long time, I still prepare a lot of fast food in the refrigerator. Although there is no nutrition, at least you can not go hungry.

For a high school student like me, who is ready to live an ordinary life, this is already the most satisfying life.

At the moment, I was lying on the bed, staring at the white ceiling in a daze. In addition to being in a daze, he also struggled with the sleepiness in his mind.

Actually, I didn't have anything, but why should I resist drowsiness? Isn't it good to just sleep like that?

I thought I would just go to sleep, but I vaguely remembered that there was something important that I hadn't done.

The kind of important things that you can't touch, can't see, and can't remember at all are like reminders hidden in the depths of your phone.

No matter how many times you search your phone's app, you can't find any reminders that were recorded days ago. But you just remember that day you had saved your plan for today in your phone.

"Sleep? Don't sleep? ”

Swinging between these two questions, I finally realized one thing. That's why I'm spending too much time thinking about whether to sleep or not.

The afterglow of the sunset, which originally came in through the window, slowly turned from the golden yellow of the bright hall to gray. Above the sky, a sneaky silver moon quietly rises, reflecting the sun that is about to set, and together they seize the same blue sky.

I didn't expect that today would pass like this, time flies really too fast.

"Goo~"

As I lay on the bed, I had a hungry roar in my stomach, like a poet fighting against fate, sharp and straightforward, except that the aftermath was a little long.

"It's time for dinner?"

Rolling over, I was reluctant to get out of bed. A soft bed with a little warmth, just like a warm embrace, can give people a rare sense of warmth and security.

"Dinner? Skipping dinner? ”

Ridiculous me. After thinking about "what is important" and "whether to take a nap", I began to struggle with the question of whether to eat dinner or not.

"Speaking of having dinner. I don't know what Elle will have for dinner. ”

She was the one who only spent three yuan to buy water last time, and she didn't have to eat lunch. I don't know how cheap she will have dinner at night.

"Alas. . . Ellie. ”

Sighing and burying my head in the pillow, I was thinking.

Wrong!

Wait!

I finally remember what I forgot about something important!

"Didn't Elle say she was going to come to me for protection money! I actually forgot! ”

Jumping out of bed with a thud, I quickly put on my civilian clothes and ran out the door.

Obviously, I've been struggling with whether to sleep or not.

Obviously, I've been struggling with whether to eat or not.

When I thought of Ellie, I didn't hesitate.

Weird, right? Or is it not strange at all?

Wouldn't it be strange to rush to send money to others?

It must be strange.

But my heart was pounding.

Not because of running, not because of missing time.

Instead, because he wanted to see Ellie, he jumped wildly.

It's that weird, not weird at all.

"Whew!"

Panting for air, he ran to the place where he met Ellie every day.

It was getting darker and darker, and the street lamps on the side of the street were constantly flickering and glowing brightly.

This is the third time I've seen the street lights come on.

"Ellie?"

Patting my chest to breathe less, I whispered Ellie's name and looked around.

But in the artificial light, apart from the occasional passerby, I didn't find any girls resembling Ellie.

Isn't Elle here?

I quickly realized this.

Could it be that Ellie can't wait and leave first?

An inexplicable loss welled up from the bottom of my heart.

Or was she hiding in a corner and watching?

I looked up again.

There is no sign of her in any corner.

Sure enough, I came too late, and she's already gone, right?

I had some chagrin and some disappointment.

She should be home by now, right?

It's so late, I'm sure I'm home.

Or did she not come at all?

I suddenly started to panic.

Nothing will happen, will you?

I thought about the morning.

Was she found?

I won't find it.

Do you think about it too much?

Definitely!

Wrong?

Right!

I'm going to find Ellie!

With that inexplicable uneasiness, I ran frantically, towards the familiar, unfamiliar, unfamiliar, not unfamiliar video game store.

Even if it's an ignorant impulse, even if you still get nothing in the end, you don't have any regrets to do what a fool does.

That's youth, isn't it?

This was the first time that I realized the word youth when I dreamed of living an ordinary life.

And as I was running, the white thread symbolizing "fate" in my hand suddenly appeared for a moment, emitting a holy pink light.

I was just bent on finding Ellie, but I didn't notice its sudden appearance or its strange changes.
