— "I'm already your girlfriend, and we'll be in Japan for a long time."
When she said the three words "girlfriend", the boy's body trembled, and after a while, he turned his face in disbelief and looked at her.
There was such a bright light in his eyes, full of ecstasy.
"Girlfriend?" He asked back, afraid that he had heard it wrong.
God knows, when he heard this sentence just now, his whole body suddenly seemed to be struck by lightning, and he couldn't speak.
He thought it was the greatest luck that she liked him, but what did she just say? Is she his girlfriend
Is she already his? Is it his property
Zhang Man took the opportunity to push him away, saw his dazed look, and pouted: "Isn't it your girlfriend, I'll let you hold you for so long?"
- She forgot that when it wasn't before, she held her for a long time.
She wanted to tease him again, and said regretfully, "You don't think so, then forget it..."
But the next second, she was wrapped around her waist and picked up. It was the kind of hug with his feet off the ground, he picked her up, hugged her and turned around gently.
Zhang Man saw that in his eyes, in those dark eyes, there seemed to be many, many stars, so bright.
The boy's heart began to feel uncomfortable again.
He felt that he had become so greedy. If a person's greed for a world had a fixed value, then his previous, indifferent, and giving up desires seemed to have suddenly accumulated in her.
- It turns out that there is such a person in the world that every time you see her, you want to hold her in your arms. And when you actually hold her, you want more.
He put the girl in his arms down, pressed her forehead, and approached cautiously, almost uncontrollably wanting to kiss the corner of her lips, but stopped when he got closer.
No, take your time.
He's never had much luck and can't use it up tonight, as she said, it's a long time coming.
…
When the two walked back from the playground, Zhang Man only felt that the road was extraordinarily long, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet. Obviously already a boyfriend and girlfriend, she also wanted to hold his hand, but no matter how the brain ordered, the hand couldn't move.
At this moment, she felt the back of the boy's hand come to touch her. It seemed that after feeling that she was not dodging, she went around her palm and gently held her hand.
Fingers intertwined.
She was led forward, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and in the darkness, the corners of her mouth curled up, and she blinked to look at the back of the boy's head.
Holding hands is a very strange thing. It is obviously not a large-scale touch like hugging, but the tactile nerves on the fingers are so sensitive. She could feel him wrapping her knuckles, the dryness and warmth of his palms, and the gentle strength of his pulling her forward.
Everything is unbelievably gentle.
But it didn't take long, Zhang Man was still too thin-skinned. When she was in a crowded place, she said whatever, the boy finally agreed to let go. But when he let go, his eyes stopped looking at the road, staring at her firmly.
It was as if she would disappear in the next second.
"Li Wei, I won't go to make-up classes tomorrow."
As soon as she finished speaking, the boy stopped, came over and held her hand again, his voice was a little nervous: "Why? Are you okay?"
The corners of Zhang Man's mouth curled up, and he squeezed his palm and let go of him: "Because I want to accompany you on your birthday tomorrow."
The boy was stunned for a while.
Birthday? He has no memory of his birthday, not even himself. Tomorrow is his birthday.
But she just said that she was going to celebrate his birthday tomorrow. The boy's expression suddenly lit up, he lowered his head to look at her, his voice was very soft: "Zhang Man... Can I call you Manman in the future?"
Zhang Man's heart was hot, and her whole heart was pounding. She looked at him and nodded with a smile.
In the winter night, the night wind was bleak, there were not many people downstairs at this time, and the dim street lights on the campus stretched the shadows of both of them very long.
The usually cold-tempered boy pulled her to stand by the wall beside the teaching building, and called to her: "Manman, Manman..."
These two words, coming out of his mouth, were different from Chen Feier and Zhang Huifang. His hoarse voice was filled with endless heat and a little depression, as if it could burn her heart.
…
Zhang Man came home that day, and Zhang Huifang just came back not long ago, watching a family soap opera that has been very popular in China this year.
Since the two made it clear that time, the relationship between the mother and daughter seems to have been sublimated. Although the relationship between them is still the same, they both know that the other cherishes in their hearts.
"Zhang Man, you said last time that you were going to Z City tomorrow, right? Wear more clothes. It will snow tomorrow in Z City."
As Zhang Huifang spoke, she approached with gossip: "Who are you going with? The little boy who took you home last time?"
Zhang Man nodded helplessly, Zhang Huifang's eyes lit up, and she took a stack of banknotes from her wallet: "Take it and spend it."
Zhang Man took the money and was a little speechless. When will her mother, a typical appearance association, change it.
She originally planned to wait for Li Wei's birthday to confess, so she secretly bought two tickets to Z city. Z City has the largest aquarium in the country, with a long undersea tunnel. Zhang Man wanted to go there in his previous life, but he never had the opportunity.
She thought of the boy who just took her downstairs and hugged her, and her heart turned into a puddle of water.
Her original plan was to confess to him in the aquarium on his birthday. But unexpectedly, he came to her in a hurry, making it all a day earlier.
—
This year, there is no high-speed rail in N city, so it is more convenient to go to Z city by bus.
Because it was a weekend and the end of the year was approaching, there were many people at the long-distance bus station. The bus station and the train station are similar, with large floor-to-ceiling windows and rows of rudimentary seats.
Outside the window was the sleet that Zhang Man hated the most. It was cold and damp, and the water had accumulated on the ground, making her trousers half wet. She glanced sideways at the empty seat next to her, guarding the simple luggage of the two of them.
Because it was a short trip, both of them only brought a backpack. Zhang Man sat in a daze, rubbing his face for a while.
Still a little unaccustomed to it, as long as I think about it, I will tremble and I can't help laughing out loud.
- Just last night, he became her boyfriend, and today is his birthday, the first day after they were together, and their first trip out.
It feels like a honeymoon.
After a while, the boy bought breakfast and came back and sat down beside her.
He carefully placed a few tissues on her leg and put two layers of plastic bags to keep them insulated and dirty. He opened the lunch box again and broke the disposable chopsticks for her.
"Manman, eat, it's going to be a three-hour bus ride."
He said, stroking her hair gently.
Zhang Man looked up at him. The boy was wearing a thick gray jacket and a black baseball cap today. Gray-black was originally a very deserted color, and he had just returned from buying breakfast outside, and there was a burst of cold water vapor all over his body.
But his eyes were clearly warm.
Perhaps a person is used to life, but he has always been a very careful person. Unlike those reckless young people who know nothing about life at a young age, he has taken care of himself for so many years and has a lot of meticulous life experience.
Such people, as long as they want to be good to a person, can do well and do well.
Her heart was slightly sour and slightly sweet, she smiled and took a xiaolongbao and brought it to his mouth.
"—Ah... open your mouth."
The little bun hit his lips, and the skin of the bun was warm, soft and elastic.
The young man opened his mouth helplessly.
Zhang Man watched him eat, and praised him without hesitation: "My boyfriend is really good."
When the boy heard her name, the temperature in his eyes became more intense, and he came to hold her hand with a smile at the corner of his mouth. He held her hand all the way yesterday, and practice makes perfect.
Zhang Man dodged and put a bun in his mouth: "Don't hold it, I'll eat first, and then hold hands when I'm done eating, okay?"
When she was done, she laughed to herself. I don't know if this is the case with everyone who just fell in love. It's such a small matter that will be discussed as a serious matter.
The boy was silent for a while, looking at her bulging cheeks, he had to compromise and nod.
The car leaves soon.
The seats of the two people are at the back. Fortunately, this bus is a soft seat, and the seat can be adjusted. Zhang Man adjusted the seat to a comfortable angle, intending to start to make up for sleep.
— Almost stayed up all night with excitement last night, recalling every detail of their time together. In fact, except for the evening self-study, there are only dozens of minutes, but holding hands, hugging, tears, and him whispering her name in her ear.
Enough for her to recall ten times as long.
Unexpectedly, two children in the car began to cry before they slept for two minutes. The car compartment is closed, and there is only such a large space. The cry of the child echoes in every corner of the car, and is reflected and reflected on every plane it touches.
Zhang Man frowned, just as he was about to open his eyes, he was suddenly lightly pressed on his head.
The boy put her one ear against his shoulder, and put his right hand around her neck, gently covering her other ear. His palm was warm, covering her ears, blocking out most of the noise, as if he had surrounded her in a small, peaceful and safe world.
Zhang Man turned his head to the side, and the tip of his nose was the fresh smell on his coat. She asked him in a low voice, "Li Wei, aren't you going to sleep? Will it be uncomfortable?"
"No, go to sleep."
The girl's soft hair rubbed against his neck, a little itchy. Li Wei's hand around her shoulder tightened, and the other hand went over to hold hers.
How can it be uncomfortable? He wants to touch her all the time, holding hands is not enough, hugging seems not enough. As long as he sees her, he seems to have skin thirst.
From this angle, Zhang Man can only see the tough jawline of the young man. She couldn't help rubbing his chin with the top of her head, and she began to fall asleep contentedly.
When I opened my eyes until dawn last night, I was really sleepy. Zhang Man leaned on the boy's shoulder and slept deeply. When the car was about to arrive, she hadn't woken up yet.
The car has dropped off the highway.
The window was thick with water mist, and the child in the front seat stretched out his hand, wiped the mist off the glass, and stuck his head out to look out.
Outside the window is already a heavy goose feather snow, and a thick snow top has accumulated on the buildings and vehicles. Pedestrians walk or run on the road, and those figures are hidden in the snow within a few steps.
Li Wei's shoulders were a little numb, and the girl's breathing rang in his ears regularly. He turned his head slightly and looked at her lovely swirl.
It's not every year that I can remember my birthday, but the few years I have memories are the same as today, a deep winter with heavy snowfall.
There's nothing wrong with snowy days, and there's no one on the road, so there won't be the excitement he always hated. It will not make him feel that he is out of place in this world.
But now, with her by his side.
In his palm, he still held hers, warm and soft. He thought in a trance, it turns out that such a temperature can be found in winter.
Such just the right amount of warmth made his heart almost melt.
The teenager curved his mouth slightly, lowered his head, and placed a kiss on her hair so carefully.
