A tall, thin, thin-haired boy called my name at the door of the house. I recognized it at a glance, it was that Su Li. A flash of inspiration flashed through my mind, and I remembered An Ling's entrustment. I've almost forgotten it all these days.

The door of the dormitory was full of people, and occasionally someone glanced at us.

Do you have time after PE class in the afternoon?

Today's PE class is the last two periods of the afternoon. We all took physical education classes together, volleyball as an elective for me, and classes on the basketball court.

Ah, it shouldn't be fine.

I studied basketball. I've seen you play volleyball there. I'll invite you to dinner after class, okay?

In fact, the last time you helped me get the machine, I still haven't thanked you, or I wouldn't have been able to hand in my homework. I should invite you.

Then let's decide for now.

All right.

We said goodbye to each other, and he turned and waved away.

As soon as he left, I saw my brother standing near the gym equipment not far from us, leaning on a parallel bar and smoking. The fourth senior brother stood next to me, beckoning to me in a friendly and meaningful way. Apparently they visited for a while.

At that time, in the winter of Qinshi, the sky was high and the clouds were far away, and the sun always seemed particularly bright and dazzling. I squinted and walked slowly to my brother.

My brother took me to the car in the cold wind that day, and this was the first time I saw him again. After a vacation, we seem to have become strangers again. Fortunately, the fourth senior brother is always so lively and talkative. The two of us asked and answered, and the senior brother just smoked lightly on the side. He didn't say anything, and I felt uncomfortable. The invisible low air pressure made me want to run away immediately. I was greedy in my heart, I wanted to see him, I wanted to stay where he could breathe, I thought that he might say something to me when he put out his cigarette.

When the fourth senior brother and I could no longer find anything to talk about, the senior brother finally flicked his cigarette butt to the ground and ran it over with his toes. Then look up at me.

I was stunned for a few seconds, embarrassed and didn't know what to do, and the air around me suddenly became hot, this big sun.

Brother.

My volume is barely audible.

Well. Long time no see.

yes, long time no see.

Are you busy on vacation?

Yes? Not busy.

Oh, not busy.

Senior brother, like me, can't you really find a topic? This kind of awkward conversation is really nerve-wracking.

Self-study at night?

Su Li was standing opposite me just now, and they were right behind Su Li, and they didn't know how many words they had to listen to our conversation. I carefully weighed how to answer.

Well, it should, go on.

My brother squinted at me for a moment.

I only dared to look at him for a moment, and then quickly turned away. Remembering Robin's reaction when he confessed to me last time, I'm not sure if I went to dinner with Su Li, would he care?

He didn't say anything more, nodded silently, and walked away with the four senior brothers.

Standing opposite the senior brother just now, I had prayed sincerely for them to leave quickly, but as soon as they turned around, I felt stunned again. I didn't dare to keep staring at his back, so I had to silently turn around and walk back slowly. Thinking of the sticky note full of my brother's phone number that tortured me for a vacation, my heart was barren. I think I'm thinking about it again. Pat your face, get those unrealistic bubbles out of your head, face reality, face reality.
