It's 17:25, and there are five minutes left for the tea time in this restaurant, and the waiter in a plaid apron will come over soon to remind me. This Saturday, the taller one is on duty. He would bend over, smile and say,
"Sir, our afternoon tea time is coming to an end, do you need anything else?"
Another day has passed.
She never came.
Day 14.
I don't know where she went. After I called her that day, I couldn't contact her again, and I couldn't even contact her sister. It seemed like she had evaporated from the world. I sometimes even wonder if she actually appeared, those smiling faces, those hugs, that rainy night, are all just my imagination.
Thinking of this, I opened the phone again and pulled out the call records and text messages in it one by one.
"April 21, incoming calls, 19 minutes."
"April 22, outgoing calls, 8 minutes."
"April 22, incoming calls, 2 minutes."
"April 23, outgoing calls, 31 minutes. " "Sorry,
I
'll leave if you don't show up within 5 minutes!"
"Uncle Chen, let's go eat Japanese food at night."
"Sorry, I have a task to complete temporarily . I can go later."
"Uncle Chen, you look handsome in a suit~"
Stupid to death. I looked at the records and couldn't help but smile.
"May 9th, outgoing call, 17 minutes." The
last call record stayed on that afternoon two weeks ago. I still remember that it was when I asked her out for afternoon tea, and at 4:30 in the afternoon, she saw her.
See you there.
My heart was suddenly empty, I frowned, and clenched the ring box in my pocket.
She will come, she will. If she comes, just like the rehearsal before, grab her hand tightly, don't care about anything, put the ring on first, what if it doesn't work? Impossible, this size was secretly measured by me, absolutely no problem, this time there will be no problem, no...
The despair that Enxi died in my arms surged up again, the coldness, I suddenly stopped breathing, my hands clasped tightly, trembling slightly.
In the car accident two years ago, it was Eun-hee who kept me alive, it was her. After I woke up, I changed my name, left Korea, and went to an aesthetic doctor, but the ring I prepared for her was never able to be worn on her hand... I hung the ring in the place closest to my heart, came to Hong Kong. met her.
Erin.
This fool, thought I would mind her profession. What I care about is whether she is hurt so much, whether her heart will hurt, whether it will be cold, without me, is she always in the rain alone, working hard, and bandaging her injuries alone, is there no one? Listening to her talk about the sadness in her heart, is there no one to warm her hands?
"Sir, our afternoon tea time is coming to an end, do you need anything else?"
I glanced at the male waiter, tall with a plaid apron and a professional smile.
"No, thank you."
I drank the cold coffee and looked at the door again, no one, no one, she still didn't come.
I smiled apologetically at the waiter and got up to leave.
There were whispers behind him, hey, do you think he will come tomorrow? It's been two weeks, I guess it won't come, right? I don't think the person he's waiting for will come. I think so too.
My steps froze.
She will come, she will. If you say it is good to see you or not, it means to see you or not.
Erin, I'm still waiting for you, I've been waiting for you.
