When I woke up the next day, the window was already filled with red light. The rain had stopped, and I could hear the birds singing among the trees.
He washed up quickly, grabbed a piece of bread, tilted his head back and drank the milk in one gulp, then rushed downstairs with a mouth full of the rich aroma of milk.
Behind him was his mother's voice: "Xinan, slow down! You haven't taken your cold medicine yet!"
Hee-nam shouted, “Mom, it’s okay!”
His mind was now full of Yi Ge's shadow, and the shadow of the pure and innocent girl gradually became clearer. He was determined to find Yi Ge and ask her for the truth.
Can't wait even a second.
classroom.
For the first time, the professor did not blame Xinan for his misbehavior , which caused many people to stare at Xinan. Some people even wondered when did the professor become so easy to talk to?
But the professor was as stern as ever and didn't even look at Xi Nan, as if what happened yesterday had never happened.
Xi Nan, however, did not notice anything. He played the saxophone as usual, while looking at the building opposite.
It was still that elegant coffee shop. Through the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows, you could see inside clearly, the waiters walking around, and the people leisurely sipping coffee.
But……
What about song?
Xi Nan was stunned for a moment. Maybe Yi Ge didn't come to the cafe every day? It was just a coincidence that day. Wasn't she cleaning here? Then wait until the get out of class is over.
Thinking of Yi Ge cleaning here, Xinan couldn't help feeling a little sad. In his fragmentary memories, she seemed to be very proud and willful. Moreover, she was the daughter of a big real estate developer. Why did she come here to do such rough work... Could it be that her father had financial problems?
He couldn't help but worry about her.
He waited anxiously until the get out of class was over, and his classmates left in groups of two or three. He still sat upright in his seat and did not leave.
The classroom is empty.
He kept looking out the door. Yige, why hasn't Yige come yet?
Finally, he couldn't help but stand up, walked to the window, and looked down at the small crowd below. Could Yige be inside, on her way?
He stood in the sunset until the night came like a tide.
But I found my head very heavy, so I couldn't help but smile bitterly. Yes, my mother was right, I had a cold.
His body couldn't support him anymore, so he had to go back to his seat and lie quietly on the table, trying to hold on. Only his bright eyes were still shining like stars in the night.
Yige, are you coming over soon? I have a lot to tell you...
But, I feel dizzy and my head hurts...
"Knock, knock, knock." Someone was knocking on the table gently .
Xi Nan woke up and rubbed his eyes sleepily. Suddenly he found the teacher standing in front of him. He stood up hurriedly and whispered, "Hello, teacher."
The teacher was not angry, but said quietly: "It's so late, why haven't you gone home yet?"
Xinan looked up and said, "Teacher, I want to wait for the cleaning girl to come over. I have something to say to her." Thinking of Yige, his heart was always filled with warmth and courage, and he could speak fluently to the teacher he always feared. Just like that time, in order to accompany Yige to Green Island, he was punished to play the saxophone for an afternoon. Originally, he knew the consequences, but as long as he could see Yige's smile, no matter how strict the teacher was or how terrible the punishment was, what did it matter?
The teacher turned his back and said, "You'd better go back early. That girl won't be coming today."
Xinan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt empty and uncomfortable. He asked blankly, "Why?"
The teacher said, "It's nothing. She caught a cold after being caught in the rain . She called today and said she was not feeling well, so she asked for leave."
Oh, I see. Xi Nan breathed a sigh of relief, but then became worried again.
Yes, it rained so hard yesterday that I got gonorrhea, and the frail Yi Ge couldn't stand it! I was really too much, dragging her to run in the heavy rain without considering whether she could bear it...
He was in a state of confusion. He wanted to call Yi Ge yesterday, but he couldn't find her phone number no matter how hard he tried. He tried to recall it, but he couldn't remember it at all...
Oh, the teacher just said that Yi Ge called him, so maybe the teacher has her number. He looked at the teacher earnestly: "Teacher, can you tell me Yi Ge's number? I want to go see her!"
The teacher shook her head gently: "Xinan, I didn't save her number, but she just said it's nothing serious, don't worry. And you look like you have a cold, go back and rest first." How could Xinan be at ease? However, the teacher had already said so, he couldn't stay here any longer. So, he nodded, packed up his things, said goodbye to the teacher and left the classroom.
