Chapter 14: The Lyrid Meteor Shower
Before we knew it, or I alone, we had become accustomed to chatting with Jiaying every night! Talking about his life, hobbies, and all kinds of interesting things.
Jiaying is different from other girls, as long as you are not too annoying, she is willing to listen to what you say, occasionally play games together, send voices, and will not feel lonely in this late night, because the vibration sound of the mobile phone always reminds you that you are not alone, there is a girl you like very much to chat with you, chat with you until late at night, even if you are sleepy and can't open your eyes, you have to pull your eyelids open, give you a message, occasionally accidentally fall asleep, in a dream of a message you send will shake a little, Immediately wake up and apologize and say goodnight to you, many times I really enjoy this feeling and really like this girl.
I slowly learned that Jiaying also likes the sea, looking at the blue endless shore, the undulation of the tide seems to wash away her troubles, she said to me: "I prefer the kind of quiet, there are no people, there is a cat and a dog, there is a sea and a blue sky!" Or the kind that has mountains and fresh air is also good. She said it would feel comfortable by the sea.
After I looked at the neon city outside the window, looking at the endless flow of vehicles, the crowded crowd, and even on the eighth floor, I could hear the honking of cars, I unconsciously closed my eyes and fell into deep thought, "Such a city always makes people physically and mentally exhausted." ”
I would like to be in a village, as long as the person I like is opposite me, close to me, looking at the same sky, then I am willing to go anywhere.
I regret knowing Jiaying so early, and I regret that I saw her for so long, just missing her in the best time, but also reunited after a long absence, and is it a kind of divine compensation to be regained after a long absence...
Unconsciously, the sky made a sound of woo ~ woo ~ woo, I walked to the window, and found that it had gradually rained heavily tonight, and there was not a single star in the whole sky, and I wondered why the weather in this city could always judge my inner world so accurately.
Maybe it's been a long time since it's raining, it's hot these days, the rain outside the window splashed on the glass, crackling, I stretched out my hand and touched the window in a trance, the cold feeling, sighed, remembered Jiaying, I don't know where she is now, it's not raining, I want to send her a message, but I think it's very late, I'm afraid of disturbing! In case Jia Ying really didn't bring an umbrella outside, then it would be useless for me to ask, and I didn't like the feeling of being powerless.
I felt that it was useless to think about it so much, so I simply lay on the bed and watched Tik Tok, and then listened to ASMS (sleep aid only) and fell asleep with headphones on unconsciously.
I woke up early the next day and sent a good morning message to Jiaying, but she didn't reply, I guess I slept lazily again, looked at the date, today is another day of climbing the mountain with my cousin, and sure enough, my cousin quickly called over, "Xiaojie, pack up your things, put on your shorts, I'll pick you up." I was still very reluctant and coped: "Okay, Brother Yun." ”
As before, every time I go out, I will comb my hair well, tie a non-existent tie, and go out decently, this habit is not what I have always maintained, but with the people I like, I always want to change my appearance, because I am afraid that if I meet Jiaying at a certain intersection or corner, and I wear it messily, how embarrassing it is, and I am afraid of leaving a bad impression in her heart.
Looking at myself in the mirror, I smiled and happily walked downstairs.
My cousin's helmet was always so big, and he had to hold it with his hand while wearing the helmet, for fear of being blown away by the wind, so he staggered all the way to the bottom of the mountain, bought a bottle of water as usual and began to set off to the top of the mountain.
Due to the rain yesterday, the mountain road is particularly difficult to walk, there is wet mud everywhere, a footprint is trapped, there is no place to rest, I bent down, put my hands on my knees, tilted my head and said to my cousin: "Brother Yun, rest." ”
My cousin looked back at me and smiled, didn't go any further, and acquiesced to a short break, during which my cousin had been looking at the scenery in the distance with his waist crossed, when suddenly he turned to me and said, "How are you doing with that girl?" I was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a while, and said, "We get along very well, but it only stays on the surface." ”
"How?" The cousin asked.
"I don't know enough about her."
After hearing this, the cousin smiled lightly and said, "That's fine, take your time." ”
"Hmm."
Every time I climb to the top of the mountain, it costs me half my life, but the view from the top of the mountain is really good, the whole city is presented in front of my eyes, and I unconsciously say a sentence: "It looks like Hong Kong." My cousin laughed when he heard this, and teased me: "Have you ever been to Hong Kong, Hong Kong is much more spectacular than here." I was embarrassed and said, "It's just a feeling!" ”
My cousin patted me on the shoulder and said, "If the girl you like is a girl who is not deeply involved in the world and has good rules, then you must take her to see the prosperity of this world." After hearing this, I smiled helplessly at my cousin and said, "Tickets for poetry and distant places are not cheap. My cousin smiled and said to me, "Then get closer and take her to Hong Kong and Macau." ”
"Haha." After my cousin said this, we smiled at each other and continued to look at the city in the distance, and only went down the mountain two hours later.
After returning home, tired and paralyzed, I took a shower, then lay on the bed and fell asleep, woke up at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, my father asked me to eat after the meal was ready, I went to eat after chatting with Jiaying on my mobile phone, maybe I was tired of climbing the mountain, and today's meal was particularly full, so that my father naively mistakenly thought that the food he cooked was delicious, and constantly boasted.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, I was watching TV and suddenly received a message from Jiaying, "I heard that there is a meteor shower tonight."
"Meteor showers? I was stunned for a moment, and then excitedly asked, "Really?" What time is it? ”
"Lyra, tonight until the early morning of the 23rd, I'm waiting now."
"I'll get the little bench ready."
I hurriedly opened the door, and ran onto the rooftop without even turning off the TV, the air on the rooftop was very good, and there was a cool breeze blowing, I stood in the center of the rooftop, looking at the night full of stars, looking forward to the arrival of the meteor, and then made a wish fiercely. But suddenly, Jiaying sent another message and said: "I heard that it is difficult to see. ”
I only then remembered that it is difficult to see meteor showers in the city, because the meteor trajectory is large, and the city is too small, so it is difficult to see the meteor shower, thinking of this I can't help but feel a little lost, but I can't help but preach negative emotions with Jiaying, so I picked up my mobile phone and said to Jiaying: "Then try it too, it's a gift from God." ”
"Hmm."
"I watched the sky at night and waited."
"Hahahaha."
But I waited for half an hour and still didn't see a meteor, I laughed in my heart: "I'm really boring, and the probability of seeing a meteor shower in the city is a little higher than my admission to Tsinghua University." Since there was no hope, I simply lowered my head and sent a message to Jiaying, "It's a little cold on the rooftop. ”
"That's right."
I smiled bitterly and was about to pack up and go home, but at this moment something flashed in the sky, corresponding to the stars, but it was moving, and my heart suddenly burst out, and I quickly took out the telescope I bought to look at it, and I was very happy, but the next second my face changed, "Well, it turned out to be an airplane." ”
I sent a message to Jiaying in disappointment:
"I saw a plane pass by in 20 minutes, and sure enough, the city didn't see meteor showers so easily."
Jiaying sent me a picture of her sky and said, "Sit and wait."
I reluctantly told her, "The Internet says to stay away from light polluted places." The implication is that cities are just not suitable. But she didn't reply to the message, it was already 12 o'clock, the night was relatively cold, I was a person who was afraid of the cold, I knew that Jiaying waited for no result, so I sent her another message and said: "Jiaying don't wait yet." ”
"What's wrong?"
I couldn't just extinguish her hope of watching the meteor shower, so I said: "The Internet says that the specific time is most likely to occur around 14:00 to 14:30." ”
"It's raining from 14-14.30." Then she added, "And I just seem to have seen a little bit of it. ”
See a little? I'm a little skeptical that Jia Ying wants to see the meteor shower hallucinate too much, but she... I really like the sky.
I decided not to interfere with her anymore and said, "I'll set the alarm clock and watch it regularly." ”
"I won't wait until 12.30," she said. ”
I comforted her and said, "I'll send it to you when I get it." ”
"Okay."
After that, I went back to sleep and waited for the alarm clock to go off.
At 12:31, I woke up in a daze, opened the window and looked at the night sky outside that was still full of stars, but I still didn't see the meteor shower, opened my phone and saw that Jiaying sent me a message: "I went to sleep, I vaguely saw a little but I don't know if it's true."
I smiled, this Jiaying usually goes to bed so early, but today in order to see this hard-to-see meteor shower for such a night, I secretly made up my mind, I will definitely take you to see the real meteor shower in the future, not only that, I will also take you to the South Pole to see the aurora, take you to every place you want to go, not limited to Hong Kong and Macau, poetry and distant tickets are expensive, as long as she can be happy, it is worth it to be by my side.
It's just a pity that you're not with me this time, but...
I looked at the starry night sky, but... We're at least looking at the same sky.
Thinking about it, I took out my phone and took a video of Tik Tok as a nostalgia, and then fell asleep again.
