Many warm stories happen on hot summer afternoons.
"Absolutely don't touch me, or I'll disappear." This is what Yin said to Yingying.
It was still a lush summer day. There were all kinds of unexpected surprises and surprises lurking in the dense forest. The cheerful cicadas, the gurgling water, the little monsters passing by suddenly, and the mottled halo hit the grass. What should have been an unsettlingly hot summer was hardly a trace in this mysterious forest. At the hottest time of the day, people outside the forest are probably eating watermelon or taking a late nap while enjoying the shade, but in the forest, things start to change. .
Ying was six years old when she met Yin. Because of playfulness, he ran into the forest and lost his way. He was squatting on the grass and crying because he couldn't find his way home. This is, a nice voice called her, looking up, a boy wearing a fox mask was standing behind a tree looking at her. Yingying was very happy to see the person, so she ran forward happily, but she fluttered. Yin told him that he was something in the forest, and that humans were not allowed to touch him, otherwise he would disappear. Yin promised to take her out of the forest, but Ying wanted to hug him happily, but was beaten.
At the exit of the forest, Hotaru promised to come again tomorrow.
Yin felt that the child might have forgotten when he got home, but the next day, he was still waiting for her at the entrance of the forest. When I saw Yingying came over with a popsicle, I suddenly felt a little happy in my heart. .
Since then, Ying will go to the forest every day to find this friend she just met.
When the summer vacation was about to end, they agreed that they would meet here every summer vacation. .
So, I began to look forward to the arrival of summer, and I began to look forward to a longer summer vacation, a little longer, and I wanted to play together, even if it was a very boring thing, it would become very happy. .
I wonder why it must be summer.
Because, compared with the sprouting of spring, the bleak and cold of autumn and winter, summer is the most gorgeous season of the year. In summer, not only lush and lush plants can be bred, but also affection can be secretly cultivated.
So even if we can't touch, it's fine as long as we're together. .
Beneath the fox mask is a beautiful and clean face, a gentle heartbreaking face, and those ethereal eyes that always look up at the sky. When the butterfly stopped on Yin's nose, Yin took off his mask and stared at the sky, feeling a certain smell unique to the summer air. A light wind swept across his face, his clean hair gently brushed his face, undercurrents surging in his clear eyes, he suddenly wondered what he was thinking.
want, touch him. . . .
We can only meet during the summer vacation of the year.
Yingying gave Yin a scarf because she wanted the scarf to accompany her to spend the winter without her.
Then, Ying graduated from elementary school, went to junior high school, changed into a new school uniform, and then became a high school student. The distance between Yingying and Yin is a little bit closer. Yin still looks the same as when she was 6 years old, but Yingying is growing up day by day. Now, Yingying can clearly see Yin's nose, and the girl's heart is slowly blooming this summer. .
Now, no matter when, Ying will think of Yin in the forest, want to see him, wonder if he wears the scarf he gave him, and wonder if he is thinking of her.
With Ying's company, Yin felt less lonely, but he knew what he was about to face, and watched Ying grow up slowly, spending summer vacations with her. Then, one summer day, leave her.
The reason why summer is so gorgeous is not because of his/her fleeting beauty~~~
Just like fireflies, they can only live in summer after all.
"I'm sorry, Yingying, I can only walk this way with you."
After this summer vacation, I won't be waiting for you at the entrance of the forest.
This summer, Yin told about his background, and she participated in the summer festival of the monsters.
Hotaru also felt the atmosphere of parting.
Just like everyone's first love, there will be a day when they face separation.
Two people. .
One is from curiosity about the mysterious young man under the fox mask. With the growth of age, this curiosity and love gradually turned into admiration. Another is the desire for human warmth. It is too lonely to live alone in this forest. I hope to find someone of the same kind, a human who can talk to him. The arrival of Yingying gave him warmth and happiness, and he became less lonely. Although there was only one summer vacation, after that, there were things and people to look forward to. Without each other's days, but there are long memories. .
It's just that fireflies can't live in summer after all.
On the way back from the summer festival, Yin caught a child who was about to fall. This child was not a monster, but a real human child. Seeing that Yin was about to disappear like snowflakes in front of her eyes, Yin just put on her fox mask for Yingying and kissed it lightly. That scene seemed so far away.
At this time, Yin smiled and said to Yingying, "Yingying, it doesn't matter if you rush over."
There is only a once-in-a-lifetime hug, and a once-in-a-lifetime first love.
The first and last time. .
I want to capture this person's breath, I want to keep that person's temperature. . . . . .
want, hug him.
Tears fell naturally at this moment, and when I realized it, my eyes were already blurred.
In the end they can't be together. Therefore, even if you see two people playing happily together, you will always feel a faint sadness in the air. Gin knew about this, Ying knew, and so did the monsters and gods in the forest.
Summer break is over, the boy will no longer appear at the exit of the forest, and she will not come again.
Years later, Hotaru will grow up, get married, and have children. . . . But she will never forget this forest, the many summer days of her childhood, Yin, and there is a boy named Yin in her memory, and everything that happened here.
