Love on the left bank, you on the right bank

In a trance, I thought I was in a meeting.

My old sister and I were sitting in the coffee shop attached to the company. The strong aroma of coffee made me dazed for a while, and I had the illusion that I was beside a black-bellied man, and a couple who would die without paying for their lives, and the gentle guitar in the sound.

It turned out that when I didn't realize it, those tiny details had already been deeply cultivated in my memory, and the temporary parting was like a sieve, sifting out things that I couldn't see.

What the heart can see is often invisible to the eyes.

Only when you lose, will you know how important those people and things are.

"Dad is here." The elder sister pushed my arm with her elbow to bring me back to my senses.Dad sat across from us, smiling gently, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

"I miss you!" The elder sister smiled sweetly, making Dad laugh from ear to ear, "Oh, you are just so cute."

"No way!" the elder sister pouted and protested, "I'm here to relax with my younger sister in Hong Kong."

My dad looked at me quietly, his eyes beckoning me to explain everything, I scratched my head and said shyly, "Uh..."

"Our family Tingting is very popular now, two beautiful girls like her at the same time." The old lady said teasingly for me, and I gave her an annoyed look, "Hey! Don't gloat!"

"That's it..." Dad smiled slightly, and then said, "Is Tingting okay in Taiwan?"

"Very good!" I nodded sincerely, "I think Taiwan is very good, I like it very much."

"That's good." Dad patted my head lightly, and said with a smile in his eyes, "Then I can tell you about it."

"This matter...?" My sister and I looked at each other in blank dismay. It seemed that even the old lady didn't know.

"Yeah." Dad responded in a low voice, and slowly withdrew his hand. "Actually...it's nothing, I just think it's better to tell you to follow Yunyun."

My sister and I waited with bated breath for what Dad was going to tell us.

"The high school you are studying now is where your mother found the person she loves the most in this life." Dad sighed softly and continued: "Your mother and I both went to that high school before and we were together at that time, Later, I continued to study business, and your mother became a math teacher and returned to that high school to teach. At that time, Tingting, you were eight years old. Yunyun was taking care of her grandmother abroad, so she didn’t experience this incident.”

I listened blankly.

"Your mother is really a good woman, and I think you are old enough to know these things." Dad whispered, stroking the ring on his ring finger. At the time of achievement, your mother spread a teacher-student relationship with the students."

The glass in my hand spilled coffee, dripping onto my left palm.

"In those days, a teacher-student relationship was as serious as murder and arson, and would be despised and spurned by others. Moreover, it was still with a female student."

I was stunned for a while and couldn't speak for a long time.

"At that time, I used all my contacts and power to suppress this matter. In the end, your mother was transferred to another school, and the female student seemed to have transferred as well. The ups and downs at that time really tortured your mother. My heart hurts." Dad let out a long breath, his tone so light that it seemed to blend in with the strong aroma of coffee, which lingered for a long time...

"So...so Mom betrayed Dad?" My sister was as shocked as I was.

Dad smiled bitterly, "The so-called 'betrayal' is only when one person resents another. But I never blamed your mother from the beginning to the end. Instead, I feel very sorry for her."

".....Why?"

"Maybe your mother liked girls at first, but she still forced herself and fulfilled everyone's expectations. She was with me and gave birth to two lovely baby girls for me. I am very grateful to her and love her very much. I am very sad to be with you. Unfortunately, until your mother passed away, I never met that female student again."

I stretched out my hand to hold the back of Dad's hand, and so did my sister. Dad was stunned for a moment, and then smiled gently.

"Yuting's death day is next Saturday. The stars next to her grave in the past few years may have been planted by that female student. I don't want to disturb her life, and I hope you Let's not deliberately look for her, just like in the past few years, let her be full of stars."

"But Dad, aren't you curious who it is?" I wondered.

"There is no reason and no qualifications. That is the love between her and your mother, we can't get involved." Dad shook my hand back, as if thinking of something, his eyes were a little distant and indifferent, "some things, don't It's better to know."

Although I don't understand what my father means or why these things happened, he can never blame your mother, even though, the mother in my memory is a woman who loves me more than anyone else.

Although she passed away in the second year of our country, and even after learning about these things today, her position in my heart is still unshakable and beautiful.

Just because she is my mother, and for no other reason, I love her wholeheartedly.

Later, my father went to catch up with the next meeting, and my elder sister and I continued to sit in the coffee shop and chatted without saying a word, and we had a tacit understanding not to mention our mother.

I think my sister agrees with me.

In the next few days, we will have Chinese food with my dad, and then wander around in the prosperous city of Hong Kong. While I miss women and girls, I look at the scenery that does not belong to Taiwan, and even see familiar figures from behind several times , I almost rushed forward to confirm, is it the person I miss day and night?

Although, I know this is not Taiwan, and my home will not be here.

Hong Kong, a safe haven for me to rest temporarily.

Today is my sixth and last day in Hong Kong.

When I was packing my luggage in the morning, I rolled my eyes and listened to my old lady's thoughts.

"Ah! Tingting, have you looked at my makeup remover?"

"In the toilet."

"Tingting~ Have you seen my glasses, the frameless ones!"

"...Is there no lens?"

"It's all the same! Where is it?"

"on the bed."

"Tingting~ Where's my underwear?"

"On the back of the chair."

"Tingting~"

I was furious, "Zuo Nianyun! Did you go out with your brain?"

The old lady stuck out her tongue while pretending to be cute, in exchange for my speechlessness.After running around and the brainless sister's tossing, we finally boarded the flight smoothly. The moment I sat in the seat, I was almost moved to tears.

I leaned against the back of the chair and said angrily: "Zuo Nianyun, next time I come out with you my surname will not be Zuo!"

"Don't do this~" the old lady squeezed my face, pretending to be crying, and said, "Tingting hates me."

"Your head." I rolled my eyes.

The old lady laughed a few times, and then said, "But seriously, are you excited to go back to Taiwan?"

"It's a lie to say you're unhappy, right?" I looked at the scenery outside the plane window, "Fortunately, Hong Kong is not far from Taiwan."

"It seems that I can't bear it!" The old lady teased me.I can only smirk and can't refute.

The journey of several hours brought me back to where I was supposed to be.

After getting off the plane, Uncle Zhang was already waiting for me and my elder sister at the airport.After everything was settled, I pondered for a while and decided to go to that place first.

After returning to Taiwan, the first thing I want to see is that person.
