Love on the left bank, you on the right bank

After getting used to life in Taiwan, I feel very strange to Hong Kong instead.

Although it is certainly not like seeing Asians rarely in Vancouver, but I grew up there so I am not unaccustomed to it. Now that I come to Hong Kong, where I am also of yellow race, I am a bit maladapted.

On the first night in Hong Kong, I already missed Taiwan.

I was lying on the bed in the hotel, staring at the bright chandelier on the ceiling in a daze.The night view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is really so beautiful that it makes people dizzy and dazzling.

I turned over and let out a long breath.

"Why are you sighing?" The old lady came out of the bathroom and wiped her hair, sitting on the edge of the bed and looking at me.

"No..." I replied weakly, "It's just a weird feeling, obviously no one in Hong Kong knows me, I should feel at ease, but my chest feels tight."

The old lady threw the towel aside, and she lay down on the bed in a large font, so I had to roll my eyes and move over to make room.

"Because," the elder sister looked at the ceiling, seemingly indifferently said, "Our family Tingting has someone she cares about."

I froze slightly, unable to answer for a moment.

"It's like when you and Yong Zhen were in love, it seemed like you had to stick to each other every second, and you couldn't bear it after only a few hours apart, and you always muttered to find Yong Zhen to act like a baby." The old lady said as she spoke. Smiling, eyes narrowed, "Junior high school is already very childish, and it is even more childish when you are with Yong Zhen."

I blushed, smiled awkwardly, scratched my head and couldn't argue.

"Everyone around you is envious of the love between you and Yongzhen. Everyone thinks that you will last forever..." The old lady said this, her tone slowed down, and said softly: "Well, things are unpredictable .”

I also laughed dryly, "It used to last forever, so I'm glad I had it."

I'm lucky...to have had those good times.

When the vows of mountains and seas have turned into fine sand, and the sky and the earth have turned into fallen leaves, then the world that two people once built together will stay in an unreachable parallel time and space.

"Oh, by the way, have you reported to the teacher that you are safe? She should be worried about you, right?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I don't know, and the teacher is still recuperating in the hospital. I don't want to disturb her. I also leave my mobile phone in Taiwan. How can I contact the teacher?"

The elder sister looked at me suspiciously: "Apart from the teacher's mobile phone number, do you have any other contact information?"

This time I was stunned and dazed.

"Now that technology is so advanced, it's impossible for you to not have a teacher's Facebook or mailbox, right? You can even call the math office to find a teacher!"

"this......"

"So, you didn't contact Xiaohai either?" Seeing my blank and guilty expression, the old lady smiled helplessly, "That's fine, if you don't want to deliberately contact me, it's better to calm down and take a breath than to be impulsive."

I smile gratefully.

"Love is an illusion." The old lady patted my head, and then said: "We are all vacillating between choosing and being chosen. The direction of our hearts changes with the environment, time, and circumstances. Emotions The essence of life will always change. Love is always love, but there are many kinds of feelings. For example, after a lot of people break up, they will lament how they once loved such a person. oh, is this love?"

I had some indigestion, so I could only stare blankly at the old lady's deep and loving eyes.I hesitated and said, "Yes or no...?"

"That's right." The old lady smiled mischievously, "Don't be so frightened, this is indeed the correct answer for me. Love is not a choice, but a heartbeat impulse. However, how to continue that impulse requires It was the hard work of two people."

"Tingting, I don't know what is the position of Teacher and Xiaohai in your heart? You don't need to force or urgently find the answer to this kind of thing. Time is like a sieve, and you will always find the one you want most."

I nodded seriously, but still teased my elder sister, "Old sister, so you are serious about studying psychology!"

The old lady knocked on my head, rolled her eyes and said, "Please, psychology is the most serious class I take, right? It's second only to business."

"Okay! I'm sleepy." I said as I hid under the blanket and yawned.

"Good night!" said the old lady, then turned off the light, and also hid in the bed.

After a while, I could already hear the old lady's deep breathing. In the dim suite, the gorgeous lights outside were still dazzling, almost brighter than the stars hanging high in the night sky.

"Even if that person is hidden among the many lonely stars, I can still find her, and then lend my light to the girl to make her shine. 』

Is the teacher better now?Is everything all right?

"Let's go together, only the two of us. 』

Is Xu Haicen looking for me?

I closed my eyes tightly, let the thoughts that were almost out of control in my mind have a rest, just give me a moment of tranquility.

Just this moment, that's fine.

The next day, I was scooped up by my sister very early.

When I was still bleary-eyed and poked my head out of the bed with a sad face, the old lady had already resigned herself to getting dressed.She gave me a sideways look and said, "If you don't get up, you won't see Dad today."

Hearing Dad's name, I immediately jumped out of bed and rummaged around to find my clothes. "What time does Dad have a meeting?"

"He said he has a meeting at ten, so hurry up."

"Oh, it's all right!" I washed up briefly, and from the bathroom I could still hear my elder sister and Uncle Zhang talking on the phone.Looking at me in the mirror, the faint dark circles under my eyes are actually not satisfactory.

That's the worst, right?

"I'm done!" I walked out of the bathroom and shouted to my sister.The old lady turned around, still holding the phone in her hand, and said, "Tingting, when do you plan to return to Taiwan?"

"How long will Uncle Zhang help me?" I asked casually while tidying up my bags.

"Uncle Zhang said to help you for a week, so what?"

I thought about it for a while, and then said: "Then it's tentatively scheduled for a week! Unless there is something else, go back earlier!"

The old lady gestured "OK" to me, then turned around and continued talking on the phone with Uncle Zhang.I walked around my old sister and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the busy crowd on the street.

It turns out that some fate is deliberately created.

How deep is the bond between people?Is it so fragile that as long as you don't connect with each other, you may miss it in this life?

"By the way, Tingting, do you still remember what day next Saturday is?" The old lady seemed to have finished talking with Uncle Zhang on the phone. Her voice came from behind, which made me pause and nod slowly.

It is possible for me to forget the date of every day, but I will not forget this day of the year.

"Then this year will also be planted with baby's breath?" The old lady walked to my side and said leisurely.

I shrugged, "I don't know, but according to that person's habits, there must be a large area full of gypsophila."

"I'm really curious who it is..." said the old lady, and I nodded in agreement.

I looked at the distant mountains and the unreachable sky, "I hope one day I can find out who is so hardworking and plants Gypsophila near my mother's grave every year."

"Me too." The elder sister laughed, "Maybe it's an underground lover!"

"Nonsense, how is it possible that my parents have such a good relationship?" I smiled and pushed my elder sister away.

I miss Taiwan.

I miss women and girls too.
