Then we chatted along the way and soon arrived at the company. By the time we arrived at the company, it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon.

My colleagues came to ask me how my business trip was going, and I said it was fine! It was just normal work, nothing special, and it was very tiring.

Then I sorted out the work on hand and got off work. I carried my luggage to the parking lot and drove home. When I got home, my bestie had already arrived.

My best friend said, "Oh, you're back, why didn't you tell me?"

Me: I forgot. I came back in a hurry. Everything was arranged by the company. I don’t even know the specific itinerary.

Later, my best friend and I went out for dinner, and then we passed by a barber shop. Suddenly, I asked my best friend if she wanted to get her hair done.

Girlfriend: No need, why would you bother doing that when everything is fine?

Me: Change your hairstyle, change your mood

Girlfriend: It’s up to you. If you want to do it, I will accompany you.

I said let's go, and after we went in, Teacher Tony asked us enthusiastically whether we wanted to wash our hair or get a haircut. I said I wanted to change my hairstyle because my hair was wavy now, so I asked him to make it straight for me.

It took about three hours! My bestie sat with me the whole time, and then Tony praised me for looking younger after straightening my hair, saying I looked like 18 years old.

You really can fool me, but I know what's going on.

After we came out of the store, we went home, washed up, and lay down in bed.

My best friend asked me: How are you and uncle doing recently? I didn't know what to say, and I didn't tell her.

Then I kept silent.

My best friend said: Did you have a fight?

Me: No, it’s fine

Best friend: You are still lying to me, is there anything you can’t tell me?

I thought to myself how could my bestie know that, since I didn’t show any sign of it when I got home!

Then my best friend said: He came to see you the day after you left.

When I heard this, I instantly felt alive again, and tears started to fall uncontrollably.

Me: Why did he look for me?

Girlfriend: He knocked on the door, probably thinking you were home. When I opened the door, he saw it was me.

He asked me where I was going. I told him I was on a business trip and it would take three or four days to come back. Then I didn't say anything.

I was curious why he didn't know you were on a business trip, so I asked him, and he said you had a fight and had no contact, so he came to find you.

He didn't say anything afterwards. Seeing that you were not at home, he left.

Why are you two arguing?

Me: Nothing much, just some things from the past, so there is nothing much to talk about, so I didn’t tell you.

Girlfriend: Well, he should come to see you again.

I asked my bestie, how about you? How have you been these days?

Girlfriend: It’s not that bad. I’ve been out for so many days and it’s almost time for me to go back. I’m not leaving and I still have to live on.

Me: It’s good that you think this way. Husband and wife quarrel at the head of the bed and make up at the foot of the bed.

My best friend: Let's do it tomorrow. I'll pack my things and go back home after get off work tomorrow. But I have to thank you for taking me in during this time.

If you don't take me in, it will be a big expense for me to go to the hotel during this period!

Me: Why are you being polite to me? As long as I can help you, just ask. You are being polite to me. You know I don’t have many friends, and you are the only one who is open and sincere to me.

Best friend: Thank you anyway.

Then we almost rested. I was quite happy to hear that the uncle came to see me. At least it showed that he still had me in his heart and was not so heartless.

My mood became better, and my sleep became better too, I slept till dawn.

After getting dressed, I go to work. When I have nothing to do and am free, I start to think about random things and feel sad. I look at my phone and say I won’t contact you, but I feel empty inside…

The more I think about it, the more I feel bad.

But I was the one who broke up with him first, how could I go back on my word and contact him? If he could resist not contacting me, then I must resist not contacting him too.

Later, I opened his WeChat and saw the familiar avatar. I had an indescribable feeling. I really wanted to delete him, but I was afraid that after deleting him, he would not be able to contact me, and I would not be able to see what he said to me.

Try to keep yourself busy and not think about these troubles.

Then my bestie moved back to her home, and I stayed in the suite because I was upset. I didn't want to go back to my dad's place because I was afraid he would nag me or ask me to go on a blind date again, so I also avoided my dad.

I was in a bad mood and felt more comfortable living alone. Until Friday, when it was almost time to get off work, I sat down with my colleagues to talk about lipstick colors.

Then my cell phone suddenly rang. I was stunned when I saw the caller ID. I didn’t know what to do for a moment, but I was still very happy inside.

Because I was still at work and there were colleagues around, I didn't want to answer the call, so I walked towards the bathroom with the phone, and when I was almost at the bathroom door, the call was hung up!

I thought it was over, he wouldn't call me again.

Then after a while, the second ring rang again. I hesitated whether to answer it! It didn't call me, I was expecting it to call me, and this time it really called me, but I was like this again

After much hesitation and trying to suppress my joy, I answered the call, but I didn't say anything.

Uncle: Little thing

Me: Didn’t we break up? Why are you calling me? It’s fine, I’ll hang up now!

Uncle: Hey! Don’t hang up, I’m coming to the county town and I’m downstairs from your company now. I’ll park next to your car. When you get off work, can we chat?

I said stubbornly: "No need, we've broken up, there's no need to say anything else!" I hung up if there was nothing else.

The uncle didn't say anything, just said: I'll wait for you downstairs, and then hung up the phone.

My mood at that time was like riding a roller coaster, up and down...

Then I went to the bathroom, sat back down at my desk, and watched the time as I waited for the end of the workday.

I'm still struggling over whether or not to go meet the uncle. To be honest, I'm also saying one thing and thinking another.

After get off work, after my colleagues left one after another, I slowly packed up and prepared to leave. Later, I had no choice but to pretend to be calm and came to my car. I thought it would be bad to get in his car directly, so I deliberately opened my car door.

The uncle also saw me and got out of his car. When he came to me, he kept staring at me. It might be because I had straightened my hair! After looking at me for a while, he pulled my arm and said: "Little thing, I have something to tell you. Can you listen to me?"

Me: There’s nothing much to say. Wasn’t we made it clear that day?

The uncle didn't say anything, he just closed my car door and pulled me into his car.

Me: Let me go, we have nothing to talk about.

Uncle: If you are not afraid of your colleagues seeing you, then you can make trouble here.

After hearing what he said, I had no choice but to gossip again.

Later, I just sat there obediently without saying anything more. The uncle drove aimlessly along.
