Love on the left bank, you on the right bank

"Mom." The childish Tong Yin struggled to climb onto the bed, and then got into the arms of the teacher, still dangling the blue star candy in his hand. "Mom, this is from my sister!"

The teacher smiled lightly, kissed Xiaoguang's face, with a doting expression, "Thank you."

I froze in place, feeling overwhelmed...

Xiaoguang pointed at me, and suddenly smiled on that expressionless face, like a child, "This person is the little sister Zuo I've been mentioning all the time."

The boy stuffed the candy into the teacher's hand and acted affectionately.

The teacher glanced past me, and looked straight at Li Xingyou, "So you are Xiaoguang's class teacher, I'm really sorry, but I trouble you to send these two children here."

"Where..." Li Xingyou was still stunned by my sudden tears, and stammered to respond to the teacher, "It's not troublesome at all! I like these two children very much, how are you?"

"Fortunately, nothing serious." The teacher smiled lightly, letting the boy play with his fingers.

... No matter how you look at it, she looks like a loving mother

Li Xingyou looked at me strangely, then at the teacher, and said in a low voice, "Excuse me... do you know each other?"

"do not know."

I'm stunned!

The teacher smiled calmly, looking at me even though his eyes were gentle but cold... enough to chill my heart.

"But, but..." Li Xingyou hesitated, as if he was in a state of shock.

I slowly clenched my fists and then loosened them.

"Hello." I closed my eyes, opened them again, and swallowed back a lot of tears, "I'm Zuo Siting, a friend of Li Xingyou's. I usually play with Xiaoguang and Tangtang...Xiao Mommy Guang, please give me more advice..."

The teacher smiled warmly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and tilted his head... Sincerely, I have to believe──

"It's the first time we met. I am Xiaoguang's mother. Thank you for taking care of these two children."

──The woman I once loved deeply no longer knows me...

"Sorry, I'm a little tired. My husband will be here later. Please go back and rest, both of you."

I looked straight at the teacher, and the teacher looked at me. Those eyes... used to be all mine, and they seemed to be unable to accommodate my figure anymore.

It turns out that I have already been abandoned...

"Xiaoguang, Tangtang, Miss Zuo is going back first." I said goodbye to the children softly, seeing them smiling happily and waving, I didn't know why I felt a burst of sadness.

The moment I stepped out of the ward, I looked back at the teacher. She was still smiling lightly, her expression calm and at ease.She nodded slightly to me, so unfamiliar...

Teacher, I am still Xiao Zuo, nothing has changed...why have you abandoned me...

Along the way, Li Xingyou and I waited in silence for the elevator. When the elevator door opened, I bumped into a man and took a few steps back in pain.

"Sorry! Are you okay?"

I shook my head while touching the bridge of my nose, and the moment I looked up, I was stunned again.

"Wen Guanyu?"

"Zuo Siting?"

I looked at the man in front of me in surprise. Isn't this the same history teacher from back then?It's just that there seems to be a difference...

"You, why are you here?" Wen Guanyu asked in surprise.

"I..." I lowered my head and sighed softly, "It's a long story, go and take care of the teacher."

Just as I was pulling Li Xingyou to get into the elevator, I was pulled back abruptly.The man pressed the extend button and stopped us, "Wait, I have something to tell you."

"I have nothing to say to you." When I saw Wen Guanyu, I felt heartache. "Let me go please......"

I just turned my back on the man, and he let go of his hand sensibly.

"sorry."

I am slightly taken aback.

"I've always owed you an apology."

I stared blankly at the elevator doors closing, then fell silent.

"It doesn't matter if you don't look at me, but I must tell you these words in person." Wen Guanyu stuffed a business card for me, "This is my contact number, when you are willing to face me, face that day Please be sure to call me when you find out the truth about the year.”

After the words fell, the man quickly ran to the ward, leaving me and Li Xingyou standing there in amazement...

"Great writer..."

"I'm fine...let's go."

I slowly clenched the business card in my hand, almost having the urge to tear it up, but the faint uneasiness in my heart told me not to do so.

Eight years later... everything changed too fast, too fast....

"Are there any vacancies?"

After saying goodbye to Li Xingyou, I found a comfortable-looking hotel near the hospital and planned to rest for a night.On the one hand, the last train has already left, so I can't take the train back; on the other hand... Looking at the hospital building not far away, I can't help but smile bitterly.

I sat on the ground blankly, quietly looking at the business card that I crumpled into a ball, feeling that everything was too chaotic.

"teacher....."

I murmured the teacher's name in a low voice, thinking of the teacher's indifference and unfamiliarity, my heart still hurts...

I once thought about the situation when I met the teacher, thinking that we could greet each other like friends, but I didn't expect it to be so chilling.

Teacher, I finally found you, but...

Half of his face was buried in the palm of his hand, and the sad tears could not be stopped.

Teacher, I miss you so much...

"It's the first time we met, I am Xiaoguang's mother, thank you for taking care of these two children. 』

"Is this the first time we met?" I smiled wryly, and cried while smiling.I took a deep breath and wiped away my tears.

I still want to see her again in person, I want to prove with my own eyes again——My existence is meaningless to the teacher.After making up my mind, I went straight out and ran all the way to the hospital.

The wind at night is a bit cold, but my heart is still warm.

I stood in front of the ward, the door was not closed.I poked my head slightly and found that Wen Guanyu and Xiaoguang were gone.

I walked into the ward quietly, but I didn't expect to wake up the woman on the bed. She opened a pair of indifferent eyes and looked at me quietly.

I stood still and tried my best to say, "Teacher...I'm Si Ting..."

"I know."

I am slightly taken aback.

"Si Ting, let's go...I don't want to see you." The teacher closed her eyes lightly, as if she really didn't want to see me.

"You really..." My tone trembled, "Don't you want to see me?"

The teacher was silent.

"Then at least tell me, why don't you take good care of yourself?" The moment I saw the teacher lying on the hospital bed, my heart was about to die of pain.

Teacher, you can hate me, you can ignore me, but please, I beg you to be healthy and live happily...

The teacher just shook his head slightly, unwilling to respond.

"Zuo Siting, if you love me, or once loved me, then please leave, as if nothing happened today." The teacher said forcefully and coldly, with a firm expression that could not be questioned.

"I-"

"I just want this, and nothing else, and you can't give it to me."

"Why—"

"I don't want to see you, get out."

I froze.

After hesitating for a while, I sadly left the ward and sat on the bench outside the door, only to hear suppressed crying.

...Teacher, you obviously still love me, why did you hurt me like this?
