go back to youth

Youth, for some people, is an extremely sour fruit. The maturity of the body, the violent vibration of the mind, the unusual sensitivity to the environment, and the random drastic changes in life, the slightest carelessness will cause serious internal injuries.
Like every seventeen-year-old girl, Nadine thought she knew the truth of life. "People who pretend to be confident will become really confident, because people can't tell the truth from the fake." Mom persuaded her: I'll tell you a good way. Whenever I feel sad, I let myself be quiet, just so motionless, and imagine that other people are actually as painful and empty as me, but better at pretending. The teacher is frank: Have you ever thought that no one likes you? Nadine was provoked and snarled the teacher, but the teacher was not annoyed: but Nadine, you are my favorite student, and my biscuits are divided into half (bitten half), do you want it? South Korean handsome Evan knew that after Nadine was taking depression, Nadine felt bad, Evan said: I don't think you are bad, I think you are fine now. The teacher's wife comforted her: Nadine, although I don't know what you went through, everything will pass. The teacher continued, holding his chin in his hand like a flower and making a face: Did you see it, this is the face of hope.
The only best friend was with the most hated brother, which was the fuse of the whole incident. When Darian stood in front of her and told her: I feel great, I grew up with good grades, handsome and popular, I stripped you of all your pride, I felt so good; I applied to a school close to home Because she didn't know what would happen suddenly at home, she had to rush back to deal with it... Nadine was stunned, and at this moment she realized that she had been selfish and self-willed, refused to know the truth, and blinded herself. Everything is not what I imagined. It wasn't her brother or best friend who deprived her of her pride, it was herself at all.
Taking off her black socks and short skirt, putting on jeans and a long-sleeved sweater, taking care of her hair, and applying light makeup, Nadine watched Evan's movie seriously. When Evan says you got it wrong, the heroine in the movie is not you. Nadine was stunned, then laughed at herself, I was so self-righteous.
Evan be gentle, haha, I'm teasing you, you finally got nervous once, and I just stood here holding the flowers, smelling the flowers, it felt great.
In the final scene, Evan walks into the crowd to receive congratulations from his friends, and Nadine stands outside the crowd, overwhelmed, as always. Then Evan gently hugged Nadine to chat with his friends, Nadine smiled and blended into the crowd.

Seventeen years old, cooked but undercooked, under the raging fire, it is for torment.
