Chapter 7: Romantic Fantasies
If I have the precision of the kingdom of heaven
Woven with gold and silver light
There is also the blue night and the white daylight
and the intricate glow of dawn and dusk
I will spread it under your feet with this brocade
โYeats
I love walking through the playground every morning, greeted by the ruddy morning sun, the sun shining through the tall street trees, dappled on the ground, and walking into the empty library. Our school library does not require a credit card, or even a closed one, and the library has balconies on all sides, and the long walkway winds around into a complete "Hui" line. Reading books on the library balcony every morning, breathing in the cold air, and watching the sunlight penetrate through every gap, like a dream of light and shadow.
A few months ago, I had just won a scholarship and excitedly called my best friend in another city, who was my dearest friend, and the family planning in our hometown was very strict, so we were basically only children in my life, and for me, she meant like a sister.
"Jingyi, I got a scholarship, I remember that we have never bought sister clothes, let's go buy it this time, buy the same one, like other girls, buy it for photos."
"Well, okay, I was just going to play with you, have you been free lately?"
"Okay, come on, I'll show you around our school."
This girl is the one I am willing to give her everything, when she graduated from elementary school, her mother died, and her father raised her alone. But this girl seems to be stronger than anyone else, she always gives people the impression of being capable and domineering, and does not allow herself to be cowardly. But she always gave me endless tenderness, and she would quietly send me snacks in winter; When my parents are busy at work and I don't like to cook, she will always scold me for being lazy and can't help me cook; At every low point I entered, she would find a way to get me out. I love her, so much so that I can't give her to anyone.
On the day she came, I went to pick her up, and a familiar and unfamiliar figure walked over, wearing a red dress with a large waist and a large waist, a goose egg face, thick black hair tied in a high ponytail, and a lipstick of Zhenggong red, smiling and groaning. I never thought she would be so beautiful, she was a fleshy little girl before, and she felt like she had grown all of a sudden.
"I bought the clothes in advance, you reimburse me, it's exactly the same as the skirt on me, our sister clothes, is it good-looking?"
"Beautiful, why did you become so good-looking?" I haven't recovered from the shock yet.
"I've been losing weight and my goal is you, skinny like you."
"No, you can't be thinner anymore, you're thinner than me now."
"What? I'm afraid I'll look good and compare you to you? โ
"I can't ask for it, it's rare to have such a beautiful girlfriend."
I went back in a noisy noise, and it was already noon when I got up the next day, at Jingyi's request, I changed into the same skirt as her, for me, the red was too hot, not the color I could bear, so I put a black trench coat on the outside, just enough to cover the skirt.
"Look at you, you have to wear it when you buy it, it's better not to wear it like this." She looked dismissive.
"I'm wearing it, and I'm in there, I'm just a little cold now." I replied weakly, not wanting to admit that she had seen through me at once.
After eating, I shook around the school, and before I knew it, it was already evening, and melodious singing came from the school radio station. There are a lot of people in our school who learn languages, so we play songs from various countries, and they are all very good.
"Wow, the sunset is so beautiful!" She sighed.
"Let's go, I'll take you to a nice place to see a more beautiful sunset," I said.
I took her to the top of the library, which is my favorite place that few people come to, and there are two classrooms on the top floor, both of which are guitar club classrooms, and students practice only on Wednesdays and Fridays. I used to be in a guitar club, and I especially liked to listen to others play guitar and sing on the rooftop, while fantasizing like a stream of consciousness.
"Wow, that's really shocking!" She looked at the sky, the afterglow of the setting sun falling on her, and she danced happily, the red skirt fluctuating lightly with her steps as she jumped, spun in circles. It's beautiful! Under the bright orange sky, a girl in a red dress dances in the wind. It seems that she is really happy, she has been learning Latin dance since she was a child, but after her mother died, she never saw her dance again, and today I saw it, I held back my tears and went over to hug her. She coughed a few times and I put my coat on her.
"It's cold, let's go get something to eat and go back." I walked back with my arms around her, and in the aftermath I saw that someone seemed to be watching us, and I was afraid that some kind of pervert would pull her to speed up.
