I first met her on the side of the road 14 months ago, it was going to be another hot summer.
Like Oliver, the hero in the movie, I stood dumbfounded on the side of the road with a backpack on my back, and I also had a big straw hat on the back of the bag.
She's like a rock star, more beautiful than I've ever seen her.
We spent an afternoon on the boat that day, and I pressed the shutter to capture the golden sunset and our beautiful appearance.
In the following days, we took the train to travel between the cities along the train line. When we arrived at a small town, we went down and walked around. When we got off the train in L city, it was getting dark. We were among the stone towers in the park and the night market that was just crowded with people. Wandering and wrangling.
Later, I caught up with many people watching the World Cup in the square, so I bought a beer and sat in the square. It was getting dark, she shouted that it was cold, I said you should wear my clothes, she said my coat was too ugly, we After watching the football all the time, she told me that I hated that day and didn't pay any attention to her shouting.
That night we found a hotel on the edge of the square. We wanted to find a movie to watch in the middle of the night, so we watched The Thief of Time, and then halfway through it, she said it was not good, so she slept on the side of the bed. I insisted on watching it, and then burst into tears.
On the second day, I took her to Lao Cui's house by coach to eat dumplings made by Lao Cui's mother. On the third day, we caught the pouring rain in front of the temple in City A, and neither the straw hat I brought nor the umbrella she brought were of any use. , there were lightning and thunder outside, and then she slept until late at night and she kissed me. When I woke up the next morning, she had quietly left, leaving only a text message saying that she had returned to City S. I'm so sorry for the night before.
We were in our own worlds for a while, and I tried to contact her, but couldn't find her.
She told me that because I thought I was a bad guy, I agreed to a boy who had been chasing her for a long time. I was overwhelmed and went to her with a bouquet of roses.
We were so drunk that night, and later felt that she couldn't take the rose, so we buried the rose under the tree in the park, and she stole my train ticket when I got on the train at the train station in the early morning. , and then took my hand and went to her house, where she slept drowsy, but did nothing.
The next day we reached a consensus that we can't see each other in the future, unless the end of the world. Of course, I don't think we can keep up with these, and it might be more reliable if aliens invaded.
Later, she said that we should make a bet. She said that we will meet again on September 10 in five years, and then we will see who is stronger than who.
I said that at that time, I would still be in full bloom and high-spirited, and you must have lived a normal housewife life with children at that age, perhaps with two children.
She said that she would definitely not get married, and she would definitely be better than me at that time. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see. Let's meet again on Teacher's Day in five years and see who earns more.
At that time, I just graduated from work and was in a daze. At that time, the time in my eyes was sand, and it flowed down unconsciously when I held it in my hand. After I made a bet with her, my heart began to harden for a moment, thinking that I must work hard, or I would really lose in five years.
Later, we met by chance at a certain rock band special on Christmas. After a few words of greetings, we each looked for our friends. Afterwards, I wanted to chat with you, but found that you and your friends left first.
Goodbye is Beijing in May of the second year. She came very abruptly, as cold and hard as a stubborn rock, and we couldn't be enthusiastic. After returning, they still went their separate ways.
Unknowingly entered June another summer has come, a year seems so long, I fell in love twice in between, I just broke up with my girlfriend, the body began to grow leaves, the arms began to divide Forks, feet and legs extend into the dirt, plunging deeper and deeper.
She said she was going to marry a rich man, she said her mother wanted her to marry a rich man, she said her schizophrenia was very serious, I said that you will get divorced in the future, as long as you marry me They won't get a divorce, she said, probably.
I said that there are still four years, maybe you will really marry me.
She said let's go south together.
I smiled.
Four years later, who knows.
