"Leave? How would you leave? Oh, do you mean when you get married and start a new family? I can't wait to hold my little Johnny......" she enthused.

Jonny looked at her and lowered his head to say more, which gave Joanna's son a sign that he was a little shy about it, and she hurriedly said:

"Of course, there are still a few years before this day, and it is not appropriate to talk about this now......"

"Look where we're talking about, it's the biggest day you've ever been into, Homecoming, Johnny, it's the hottest topic for kids your age." The mother reminded her son of the purpose of their trip to Newton.

"You should cheer up, there are only two festivals like this in a strange year."

"Oh." Jonny replied with his head down, his right hand playing with the fingers of his left hand.

"Celebrity alumni speeches, great club performances, food promenades, a grand ball, and a beautiful fireworks display, what a rare opportunity to be indifferent to you, you've already messed up a homecoming, and I don't want this time to be the same as the last one." Joanna scraped her son's nose with a tiger face.

Last Homecoming...... Joanna barely remembered that there were two homecomings a year, on the 40th of the Duck and the first of the Sheep.

The back-to-school festival of the Sheep Moon is small in scale because of the curriculum arrangement of the students, and it is generally set up for graduates to revisit their hometowns and reunions between old classmates. During the Duck Month, there are relatively abundant venues and time, and a variety of communication and interactive activities can be held according to the scale of each school.

The financially well-funded back-to-school festival is often continuous, sometimes as long as a decade, during which various student clubs take turns and university sports leagues hold a variety of exclusive competitions at the same time.

During Newton High School's last homecoming, Jonny had only just entered school, and all he knew was sitting in the library every day, looking up materials, and his mind was full of new things.

He was alone, alone, and no one wanted to be friends with a weirdo who was picked up by his mother when he reached high school. In Li Bai's class, there is only Roger. Clark would have a gossip with him, and the blonde kid was busy playing tricks on the back-to-school holiday, and there was no place for Jonny in his head.

His mother, Joanna, had asked him about the homecoming, but the son was at a loss, his condition seemed to be getting better, and she was reluctant to do anything to provoke him.

Jonny has no idea about the first homecoming festival and doesn't care about it. In fact, even when it came to another homecoming festival half a year later, he showed a very indifferent attitude. If it weren't for Joanna's urging, maybe she would have been happy to read a book at home and rest, so as to alleviate the discomfort caused by the team's heavy exercise training a few days ago.

"It's going to be fun to be happy son." Joanna straightens the collar of Jonny's school uniform suit, forcing the latter to squeeze a smile out of her.

……

The atmosphere on the campus of Newton High School is very different from usual, the campus that was already surrounded by dense vegetation is now almost a sea of flowers, and the faculty and staff are all in front of the school, and everyone has a smile on their faces.

The park was crowded with parents, alumni and students, walking on the tree-lined paths in an orderly manner, holographic signage at various intersections playing moving music, and white panels frequently reflecting Newton's school emblem and the green icon of Homecoming, which looked festive.

Walking along the path, Joanna took Jonny to the Newton Multipurpose Gymnasium hidden in a dense bush, where her mother had not been here for many years, and the change of scene for more than twenty years had blurred her memory, and she tried to identify it, trying to find the bits and pieces of the passionate and lively girl in her mind, but she could not combine it with this situation.

Joanna shook her head with a wry smile, and was about to follow the crowd into the venue when a middle-aged lady wearing data glasses in front of her saw her and screamed.

"Taylor! Oh my God, is that you? The middle-aged woman with a fluffy explosive hairstyle had a look of disbelief.

"Vivien? Vivian. Plum? Joanna was also surprised to make out the face of her former best friend.

"It's not me, Joanna. Taylor, my big beauty! Vivien trotted over to Joanna, grabbing her hand and jumping.

"You're going to kill me, Joanna, I didn't expect to run into a homecoming this year......" she said with a smile on her face.

"I miss you too, but Vivien, why are you in Chilian? I thought you'd be ......" Joanna clearly hasn't forgotten her friend.

"Providenton? Yes, I've been there, and this time I'm coming back for a trip, just in time for the homecoming festival of my alma mater, and it's a coincidence that we can meet the real one. Vivien's face flushed with excitement.

"Do you always attend Homecoming? Joanna? You must know that this is the second time I have participated after graduation, and I came here on this day ten years ago, and I didn't meet you, so I went to your former home at Qixia Farm to look for you. ”

"Really? Why don't I know? Joanna was surprised.

"Your brother told me at the time that you weren't in Wenzhi City, it seems that you and your husband took the child to see Xian Siqi City to see a doctor, why didn't you mention it after you came back?"

"Which brother?" Joanna asked

"The one with the tattoo on his arm." Vivien thought for a moment.

"I have to clean him up when I go back, why don't you want my address and go to the gorge to find me? I really had absolutely no idea you were coming back. ”

"Yes, I haven't been back for ten years, do you live in the Xiajian District now? It's a great place with beautiful scenery. Joanna, you haven't changed at all, you're still a big beauty in my mind, haha. ”

"You're still like that, Vivien, say something nice to make people happy, after all these years, you're still beautiful, by the way, are you still working in the Foreign Affairs Bureau of the Union?"

"It's long gone, now the Development Committee and the Joint Development Agency are working, not as easy as before, busy with a bunch of trivial things all day long, annoying to death, no, taking advantage of the gap of the rotation of the 'purification project', I am taking a long vacation to Qilian to travel, but I haven't been to the 'Paradise Beach' in Jinghai for a long time to relax."

"Oh? UNDP? Is the newly developed colonized planet, Cadmus, under your jurisdiction? Joanna asked hurriedly.
