Chapter 3: Distant First Love Target Four
The whole afternoon passed in a daze. When school was over, I almost walked to the entrance of St. John's as usual, but I stopped as soon as I took a step. I couldn't go to see An Yixuan again. I had to restrain myself, otherwise he would become more and more afraid of me and hate me, and our fate would be really broken. Everything in the past was just a dream of mine. I clenched my fists and ran towards my home.
"You're home so soon today. Mom made braised fish for you. Come wash your hands and come eat." Mom said to me, wearing an apron and looking at me with a smile.
My nose was filled with the delicious aroma of braised fish, and my stomach couldn't help but growl with hunger. I immediately washed my hands and sat down to wait for dinner.
"Baby, studying is important, but your health is so important. You see you have lost weight. I also made fish soup. You can drink a few bowls later." Mother's gentle voice rang out in the kitchen.
My eyes became moist again. Even without An Yixuan, I would still live well. I still have my parents, and Lingling... and so many people who care about me.
After dinner, I obediently helped my mother wash the dishes, then hid in my room to read and do homework. After finishing my homework, I started to do the test paper. The non-stop working of my brain also relieved the pain in my heart. After finishing the exercises, I stretched my hands and finally relaxed my spirit.
I looked at the empty bedside table, which was once filled with photos of An Yixuan , photos of us going to school together, hanging out together, graduating together, working together, getting our first salary and eating... Those photos replayed clearly in my mind, like a slide show.
"Come on, you stand in front and I'll stand in the back, so my face looks smaller!" I deliberately hid half of my face behind An Yixuan.
"You're being naughty, but that's how you look cute!" An Yixuan looked back at me and pinched my cheek.
"Let me take a picture of you eating lobster!" I said to An Yixuan, who was wearing a white shirt and eating lobster carefully. "You look so funny. If you post it online, many people will say you are pretending!"
"You're still laughing. If you dare to take a photo, I'll strangle you to death! Who suddenly dragged me here to eat crayfish? My new shirt is very expensive!" An Yixuan glared at me with gritted teeth.
Of course I didn’t miss this good opportunity. I took out my phone and started taking photos. He looked helpless and doting in the photos, and in the end, he was smiling.
"You always take pictures of me, don't you get tired of it?" An Yixuan held the railing and made an expression as if he was looking into the distance, and asked me with a smile.
I was filming and shaking my head: "I'll never get tired of watching this for the rest of my life!"
"Oh, girls are so direct!" The smile on An Yixuan's face became even more intense, his eyebrows slightly raised, his handsome face slightly reddened, and he stretched out his hand and hugged me in his arms.
He always has a cool minty scent on him, which is cool, refreshing, and warm. In his arms, it feels like we are the only ones left in the world.
"Xizi, we will never be separated, I love you." An Yixuan gently kissed my hair.
I hugged him tighter, and at that moment I really thought we would get married soon, have children, and grow old together...
"oops!"
I had been immersed in memories for too long and my feet were numb from sitting. I stood up and walked around gently lifting my feet. Every time I walked, I felt numb and it felt like my feet were not my own. Tears started to flow again.
"Ding Dong!" A reminder suddenly popped up on my phone. I walked to the bed with great effort and saw that it was a QQ friend adding reminder. My eyes widened instantly when I saw the verification information, because there were only three words written on it: "An Yixuan".
"An Yixuan added me as a friend?" My brain was a little slow to react. I passed the verification immediately, and then I was struggling with what to say first. What if he deleted me?
"Hello..." I struggled to type out these two most common, clichéd, and least problematic words.
It seemed like he waited for a long time. I saw that the input was displayed for a long time before he sent a message: "Have we known each other before?"
Wow, does he have feelings for me? I almost jumped up, he is not indifferent to me, he is not afraid that I will hate me, he still has feelings for me!
I walked around the room excitedly, thinking about how to reply him. An Yixuan was such a hard-to-guess person, always making surprise attacks. I walked around the room humming a little tune for a long time before I continued to look at my phone. There was another "?" number on the other side. Hahahaha, I won't tell you, so that you can be entangled!
"If you have forgotten, just forget it." I quickly typed the next line of words. To deal with An Yixuan, I have to make him puzzled. The more he doesn't understand, the more he will think about it. When he thinks about this problem, he will think about me. Hahahaha, I also want him to use his brain!
"My memory tells me that we have no intersection." It took ten minutes for the other end to type a reply.
"Memory can be deceiving, or rather, memory is also time-limited." I didn't lie, we did meet and fell in love, but your memory doesn't have this part yet. This part will be 10 years later.
I have begun to imagine An Yixuan's conflicted look. He must be wondering whether he has lost his memory or his memory is confused, or he may be thinking divergently about another time and space.
"Are you okay?" the other end replied slowly.
"Of course I'm not sick. I hope I am sick."
"Can you explain it clearly?"
"Some things can't be explained clearly. Do you believe in the sixth sense? Do you believe in intuition? Well, I'm going to sleep. I just finished a set of test papers and I'm sleepy." I smiled and typed these words and closed QQ. I wonder if he will have insomnia today because of this? Some things may not matter if you ignore them, but once you pay attention to them and think about them, you will toss and turn, and your brain will have infinite possibilities, and you don't know which one is false.
I lay on the bed, rolling around in excitement. Anyixuan, Anyixuan, we definitely have a future!
