Chapter 4 Allowing Vulnerability to Exist
Sunlight and rain can only give you dust and mud
You're in an umbrella, dodging everything
Say no to tears and memories
——— Haizi
When I dragged the suitcase back to school, the wheels were broken because of the uneven ground, and the already inflexible box was even more tiring to drag, and by the time I arrived at school, I was already sweating profusely. It's like this every time, no matter how neatly you clean up before departure, you will always get dusty along the way, and when you finally arrive at your destination, you always look embarrassed. But, O dusty traveler, where is your home? Is it a distant place with no end, or a hometown that can never be returned? I don't know where I'm going, so I chose to wander in this mortal world all the time?
Sitting on the bench, I wanted to take a breath before I left, and as soon as I adjusted my breath, it started to rain, drop by drop...... I heard that God came with the rain, if there really is a God, then he heard the pain in my heart and planned to cry with me? I couldn't help but cry, and I wanted to melt my tears into the rain quietly. For some reason, I couldn't feel the raindrops falling on my body, and when I looked up, a big yellow umbrella was propped up above my head, and the boy holding the umbrella was sitting next to me with his back to me, I don't know how long he had been here, and I didn't know how long I had been crying.
"Guan Shan, you're here." After sorting out my emotions, I accosted him.
"I won't hand you a handkerchief, only boys in idol dramas have handkerchiefs, and most boys in real life don't carry handkerchiefs with them." He said casually, his expression cold and not like a comfort.
"It's okay, I don't wipe my tears, it will dry naturally anyway, that's better." I replied.
"It's raining heavily, let's leave when I'm crying, I'm afraid of the cold, it's not good for me to catch a cold." He said coldly.
The big yellow umbrella covered us, and we walked side by side on the road, feeling very happy, happy because I met the person who held the umbrella for me for the first time. Because I'm tall, most of the time, it's me who holds the umbrella for others, otherwise it's either the other party or me, and there will always be someone who feels uncomfortable, so even though I feel tired holding the umbrella all the time, I haven't refused to hold the umbrella. In this way, it is good to be able to walk side by side with the person I like, although he did not put his arm around my shoulder, but it is just like that, just the right distance, just the right atmosphere, everything is just right.
"Look, flowers bloom on my umbrella." He said.
"Really!" I looked up and was pleasantly surprised to find that the umbrella was covered with water prints, five petals, so beautiful.
"This umbrella blooms when it meets water, you know? In fact, cherry blossoms originally looked like this, a single layer of petals, and later after artificial cultivation, now there are many layers. ”
"Is that the same green cherry blossom when I met you?"
"Hmm."
"I suddenly found out that you are a good sissy, why would a boy buy this kind of umbrella?" I quipped.
"Buy to pick up girls and flirt with girls, are you satisfied with this answer? He replied in a serious manner.
"Hahaha......" this person poked my laughter, I was easy to get carried away when I was happy, my feet slipped, and I almost fell into a, I caught him, people will catch anything around me when they are in danger, he helped me up, and when I stood firm, he pulled his hand away.
"I forgot to tell you that when you walk in the future, don't walk on the white line on the side of the road, it will be very slippery and easy to fall on rainy days."
"Okay."
I was already at the door of the dormitory, and I was ready to say goodbye to him. He told me to wait, and he went to the supermarket next to the dormitory to buy a cup of coffee and bring it to me.
"Nanfang"
"Hmm"
"When people are sick, they become extremely vulnerable, whether it is physical or psychological."
"Hmm"
"So it's like treating a small cold, drink some hot, get a good night's sleep, and everything will be fine after that."
"Okay, thank you."
"When I want to say, everybody has moments of weakness, vulnerability, and we have to be tolerant and allow those moments to exist."
"Okay."
