Chapter 55: The Star of the Sea
It was still early to return to the dormitory, and the sisters had not yet taken a lunch break, so when they saw me enter, they all gathered around, praised the flowers and cakes, and agreed to come back in the evening to eat the cakes.
"Is this a gift from Brother Jun?" Shizuko picked up the box and shook it.
"It's not." I changed my shoes and got ready to go to bed.
"Was it sent by Du Shao?" Shizuko looked at me.
I didn't speak, so I acquiesced.
Shizuko sighed and sat down on her bed, not knowing if she felt sorry for Xiao Jun or for me.
"What's inside?" Grid asked.
"I don't know." I've been lying down.
"Oh, you can tear it down and show it to us."
"Yes."
When I returned to the dormitory in the evening, the room was full of flowers, and everyone applauded.
Singing and voting, blowing out candles and eating cakes, everyone did it in one go, and washed up after eating.
After cleaning up, the lattice urged me to open the box given by Du Shao, I was a little reluctant, maybe every girl will find a time when no one disturbs the things she cares about slowly, and my requirements are not high, I just want to enjoy the process of opening.
But then I think about it.
"You open it for me, I'll wash the cup."
I took the cup to the water room, and when I came back from washing, everyone was holding a necklace and admiring.
I pretended to be calm and took the water bottle and poured a glass of water.
"It's so beautiful!"
"Xiaoxiao, come and see!"
"This looks like the star of the sea in "Titanic"!"
"Yikes! Really, Sapphire! β
"It's crystal, isn't it?"
I stood by the window, looking at the necklace in my hand at the moment, a big blue pendant, which looked like a star in the ocean, and my mind returned to an afternoon in the third year of junior high school......
It was Friday, we had just finished school, Du Shao was waiting for me at the school gate, and he brought me a poster, which was from "Titanic", and the necklace hanging around the heroine's neck on the poster attracted me and made me unable to let go, I didn't know it was called Ocean Star at that time.
Once, everyone accompanied Qinqin to buy a necklace at the gift shop.
"Will you buy one too?" Qinqin suggested to me.
"Forget it, I don't wear it." I waved my hand.
"Really, girls should wear earrings, necklaces, and so on!" Qinqin has indeed had her ears pierced, and she is always very trendy.
"By the time I'm twenty years old, I'd like to buy a necklace like the Star of the Seas. β
"What is the Star of the Sea?" Qin Qin took a necklace and put it around her neck and compared.
"It's from the movie, maybe it's not really there." I continued to help Qin Qin carry it.
"I'll give it to you on your twentieth birthday." Du Shao suddenly interjected.
"Give it to me?" Qinqin glanced back at Du Shao.
"I'll give it to you!" Min Hao immediately stood up.
"Less, you don't even know what it is!" Qin Qin shook off a sentence disdainfully, pointed to the necklace clasp on the back, and motioned to Min Hao to help her untie it.
I glanced at Du Shao, he was looking at me, I think he should have said it to me.
To this day, though, I never thought he would take it to heart.
"Here you go! Why are you stunned? Shizuko handed me the box, and the other sisters were ready to go to bed.
I took the box, put it on the bed, and climbed onto it.
I held the "Star of the Sea" in my hand and watched it for a long time, full of emotion, I began to regret my behavior at noon today, I think I have to apologize to Du Shao and explain.
"Xiaoxiao, this seems to have just been in the box, for you." Ah Hui handed me a folded note.
Xiaoxiao: Give me a little more time, and I'll take care of everything.
What does that mean? Could it be that Du Shao and the little junior sister are really already together, and he needs time to break up with others?
I thought about explaining it to him, it was ridiculous.
But what is this necklace? Make amends for his faults?
The heart that had melted suddenly froze again, I was so naΓ―ve, I should be more sensible.
I put the note and necklace back in the box, covered it, and put it in the locker.
Then he dialed Du Shao's phone.
"Don't deal with it, may you two last a long time!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Please don't bother me again!"
"Xiaoxiao, did you have any misunderstanding?"
"That's good! Then please don't bother me again until you deal with it, I want to live my college life quietly! β
After saying that, he hung up the phone and unplugged the battery.
My sisters looked at me in amazement.
I fell asleep.
