Chapter 4: Love Letters
When people are afraid of something, they are used to hiding from it.
Shirakawa's awkward figure is really a bit funny. In order not to let the teacher see it, I can only put the textbook on the table, and straighten the half of the body above the desk. Even if the teacher sees Shirakawa, I'm afraid that he will only see half of his head, and then his brows are tightly locked, as if he is thinking about a problem.
Every time Xiao Ting pinched the needle on the table, it would make Bai Chuan tremble, but the awkward body was really not very comfortable, and if she stretched it slightly, she would hit the dividing line that Xiao Ting thought was very fair.
When I was a teenager, I was supposed to be carefree and should have chased with the wind, but in reality, do teenagers have a little bit of pain and a little bit of happiness.
In the first general examination of the school, the classroom was silent, and in order to prevent cheating, two people at a table sat opposite each other on the narrow side of the desk. The length of the paper is scary, and it is clear that I have only learned less than a third of the course, but I have derived so many questions. Shirakawa's mind was blank and cleaner than the white paper used to type drafts, and he picked up the pen for more than ten minutes before he began to move a few times. Of course, there are also multiple-choice questions that Shirakawa likes, A, B, C, D, D, B, C, A...... True/FalseΓ, β, Γ, β, Γ, β...... Of course, the first thing to do after the exam is to throw the small paper ball in your pocket that has completed the mission out of the school wall next to the classroom - destroy the corpse.
Of course, when the results are announced, when I go home, what is indispensable is my mother's crackling and spanking ass.
"Look at Tingting, how is she so good at studying, she has taken the second place in the exam, you, you are with others every day, not even half of others, and then you cry in disappointment.
In fact, Shirakawa elementary school is still very good, at the end of each year, I will take the certificate and some notebooks and ballpoint pens home, and the family will happily take a few cents and a few dollars to let him buy his favorite things. At that time, Shirakawa was the pride of the family.
It can't be said that Shirakawa doesn't study hard, he doesn't write less homework, he doesn't do less extracurricular questions, and although the teacher answers every question a little twisted, he can still answer it correctly. It's just that this time, maybe the reason is that he received the first love letter he received before the exam and the first love letter he received in his life.
At that time, the convenience store on campus sold envelopes and stationery, except for some small snacks. There are all kinds of them, some are printed with the patterns of popular cartoons, some are autographed photos of imitation stars, and some are retro mountain and forest style. The letter paper is even more extreme, the whole page of flowers red and willow green, vacating a few points is used for writing, and there is a kind of fragrance, anyway, only you can't think of it, no one can do it.
Few guys are "beaten" by girls who write love letters. Shirakawa received a rare pink boxy envelope the day before the exam, with the words "Shirakawa Shu" written on it in deliberately concealed handwriting, and the seal was a large triangle, with a small piece of scotch tape stuck to the tip of the corner.
At that time, it should be such a happy thing to receive a love letter, Bai Chuan blushed all day, but he didn't dare to open it, and his eyes always involuntarily swept the girls in the class, so as to see who would secretly send him a autumn wave. Of course, the last one to lock or affirm in my heart is Xiao Ting, who is now sitting next to him. But Xiao Ting just didn't look at herself when she was reading the book, and even her face was buried in the textbook.
Between classes, Shirakawa ran to the woods in front of the classroom by himself, carefully scraping the transparent tape with his fingers, expecting that it would always be accompanied by a little excitement, a kind of throbbing. The result is joy or disappointment.
A piece of mostly blank letterhead, a small fish with a bit of funny points, curled up, staring in which direction, clownfish's side red ballpoint pen marks a small circle similar to the dialogue in the comics, inside is beautifully written "You, clownfish" at the end of the symbol to draw a small smiley face, at the top of the blank space there is a small dialogue circle "I am water!" βγ
In addition, the entire letter paper is blank, although the signature is not written, but the traces of the circle Bai Chuan are very familiar, and the simple words are very well understood, you are in my heart, I am in your body, no one can do without anyone.
Shirakawa folded the letterhead, put it in the envelope, re-glued it, and put it in his pocket, and the taste in his heart was like the drums of war on the battlefield, and as sweet as honey mixed with sugar.
After school, Bai Chuan took the initiative to stuff the book Xiao Ting was going to bring into his schoolbag, but his face was red, he didn't dare to look at Xiao Ting, and he didn't speak. Xiao Ting held her mouth and seemed to be very satisfied with Bai Chuan's performance, how long the way home would be, Bai Chuan thought to himself, deliberately slowed down his pace and looked at the back of Xiao Ting who was jumping happily in front of him, and didn't care that Xiao Ting was shouting that he was walking faster, just a smirk.
I want to have insomnia for the first time when I was a child, this time Bai Chuan didn't know why, and when the adults were asleep, Bai Chuan quietly turned on the table lamp and pressed the lamp head to the lowest, and the light only shone a small place on the table, but it was exceptionally bright. Shirakawa took out a new notebook, put it in the middle of the light, picked up the pen, and wrote "She likes you", "You like her too", "Love letters", "How do I reply to you", "Clownfish and water", "Have you slept??? "How am I going to reply to you???" "I can't sleep???"
Until the old wall clock hanging on the wall in the middle of the night rang the bell at midnight, Bai Chuan still didn't feel a little sleepy, the new book was already full of words, and he couldn't help but feel from his heart.
It became popular in the class who sent love letters to whom, and the heavy courses couldn't stop the teenagers who were just starting to fall in love.
To be honest, at that time, boys looked at girls, and girls looked at boys, as long as they thought they looked good, then they must have felt that they liked her.
The love letters Xiao Ting receives every day can be as thick as a book, but she never returns, or she really takes a boring class, so she takes them out and reads them one by one, as a novel, or as a songbook, or as a joke.
Until she saw a piece of stationery filled with the lyrics of a popular love song at the time, the kind that had been lightly embellished, of course. That chic piece of letterhead was painted with a cute little fish with two white stripes...... There are a few ripples of water in the faint blank space, and nothing else is empty.
After class, Xiao Ting ran to the store, took out the letterhead, and pointed it to the old lady of the shopkeeper, "I, I want this exactly the same letterhead, is there anything else?" β
The old lady picked up her reading glasses, took Xiao Ting's letterhead, looked at the words written on it, and smiled "Yes, yes" and turned around and flipped through the big stack of colored letterheads for a long time before pulling out one.
"Look at this one, won't you?" After speaking, he handed it to Xiao Ting.
Xiao Ting took it and compared it for a long time, "Yes, it's this one, but why don't you have the ripples of this water?" β
"Forget about the printed ones!" The old lady just looked at Xiao Ting and smiled.
After paying the money, Xiao Ting walked back, and the old lady shouted "Your love letter" in the back
"Help me get out of the trash! Thank you! βγ
Bai Chuan beside him, who seems to be a little short-sighted recently, always sticks very close to reading books, looking at his stupid appearance Xiao Ting really couldn't hold back, and slapped Bai Chuan on the back of the head, Bai Chuan screamed, and his head hit the stacked textbooks in front of him, and his two hands covered the two poles of his head one after the other.
The first love letter, Xiao Ting wrote to Bai Chuan, a few words, no flowery language, of course, no need to copy lyrics, flip through the novel to find paragraphs. She believed that he could understand that I was the water, and that you were the fish hidden in my heart, a clownfish.
