Chapter 2: The Year We Are
"Hey! Hello!'
That year coincided with the warm winter sun, and the snow was white outside, but on this day when the sun went to work early, it melted a lot.
"Ha~" A young and lovely girl blows the heating in her mouth towards the floor-to-ceiling window of her house, and the mist is condensed, and she is enthusiastically describing a "masterpiece". A horizontal bend, a drawing and a line, a rough little heart comes into view, projecting the world outside and the white clouds as one, reflecting her big watery eyes, like the sea of stars, shining brightly.
"Tongtong, who do you think is in the house?" The girl's mother asked softly, softly, and gestured to the little girl in the direction of the door.
There are three children standing at the door, each with their own "little temper", the highest is the eldest girl's two-year-old brother - Ye Qiuyi, who wears children's glasses and holds a thick book at a young age and stands quietly like a little nerd, with a literary and crepe look, which makes people like it very much.
The one in the middle is the young master of Chang Family Winery-Chang Miao. Born in the restaurant business, an innate exotic atmosphere makes people feel that there are many novel characteristics, looking at the little girl with a smile, taking out a candy from his pocket and shaking it at the girl, laughing without saying a word.
The most "naughty little devil" - Situ Zhengze, stomped on the floor and was very high-spirited like a "little prince" waiting to greet him, holding a small and delicate gadget in his hand. The appearance of super positive energy is the most prominent among the three.
"Brother...... Nabs! The little guy Ye Tong saw the three boys with surprise and ecstasy in his eyes at that moment, and then strode towards the side, accompanied by a crisp laugh like silver bells and eyes that exuded "magic".
The boys laughed and ran outside with the girls, and the world seemed to be less cold at that moment. Four little people wrapped like rice dumplings lay horizontally in the ground decorated with silver. The constant squirming up and down, left and right, added a pleasant atmosphere to this white and monotonous piece.
If time goes back, probably, this is the place we want to return to.
We had a carefree childhood, full of laughter.
Time flies, comes and goes, as if the snowfall has brought a new day to the end of the terrible night, and the cycle repeats.
My tablemate, from kindergarten to high school today, has never changed, it has always been him, and I thought at that time, it will always be him. But reality allows things to go wrong, and we can only be friends, forever.
"Sycamore leaves! What do you see I've brought you? Situ asked mysteriously.
"Isn't it a little dinosaur again......?"
"You guessed it! Dangdangdang......"
The room is stocked with all dinosaur-related items, keychains, pencil cases, charms, drinking glasses, dolls...... All kinds of colors, strange shapes are all here. Year after year, too, birthday gifts, Christmas gifts, etc., do not need to be unwrapped outside the package to know that the gifts he gives are related to dinosaurs.
Forced to smile and feel dinosaurs everywhere.
They were 8 years old.
"Sycamore leaves, sycamore leaves...... Hurry up, hurry up! Let's hurry up and set off fireworks! ”
"Sycamore leaves! Let's go play? ”
"Sycamore LeafSycamore Leaf ......"
It's like a big with chatter syndrome that keeps "chirping" there, with a small name on the left and a flower name on the right, and Ye Tong went from dislike to acceptance to getting used to it.
"Know, know, come right away."
We were 10 years old that year, and we didn't seem to understand feelings, and we only cared about jokes and didn't worry about the consequences, and made a promise that we would be together forever~
Nowadays, we in the prime of our youth also have a lot of inevitable troubles, such as the naughty mischief of boys and the helpless accusations of girls.
A score that always hovers over the passing line.
The question that the teacher has said many times still doesn't know.
As soon as the test results came out, I went home and immediately begged for mercy, studied hard, signed a guarantee agreement, and returned to the same state in the next second, "Come on, open the black!" Eat chicken! ”
Boys always like to pull girls' ponytails, and finally shout "grandma" and kowtow.
There will always be people who don't finish their homework and say, "Draw on your homework." ”
The hand of time, take everything away, turn the clouds and rain, and let all the memories disappear.
"Sycamore leaves, did you say that you would be in a hurry if I disappeared in the future?" Situ tilted his head and asked stupidly.
"No, it won't."
"Hey? How can there be anything like you? Don't even Uncle Ben care about it? ”
"No, I know you're not leaving."
Indeed, Situ never left, no matter when. His stay took away Ye Tong's idea of going to extremes, and he was forever like a little sun, shining on her covered by ice and snow, gradually melting.
Ye Qiuyi went to France, far away, Chang Miao has been busy with the winery because of the affairs of the winery, and rarely meets others, leaving the "big sister" and the "little milk dog" to do the "38th line" at the same table in the same school.
"Don't cross this line, or you won't be given a black pen, an eraser, a ruler......"
"Good, good." The elbow had never crossed the line, his heart and eyes had already touched, the impassable boundary, the timid and the afraid, that is, the untouchable splendor.
No longer laughing as carelessly and presumptuously as we did back then, we were silent and spoke with our own troubles and secrets.
But our relationship will not change.
We're all trying to run towards our ambitions, no matter what it is, we're all working together. At the age of sixteen, our so-called "In the Mood for Love" is like a year flowing in water, and like a year, closing your eyes, opening your eyes, and just like that, disappearing.
"Hello, I'm your new neighbor next door, Yin Xilan."
"Chang Miao."
There will always be people who will appear suddenly, and there will be people who will leave silently.
"Mother, I will fulfill my father's last wish, don't worry." Putting down the phone, Ye Qiuyi looked at the sky without stars shining and shook his head.
"Mom and Dad...... Why did you leave without saying a word......"
"It's fine. And me. ”
"I'm still here."
Do you remember that the plane trees we planted together and the wishes we made were slowly taking root and sprouting......
