The next morning, I was woken up by the alarm on my cell phone that I had set the night before. I looked at the clock and it was only half past five. I had never gotten up so early before, but I still quickly got up from the bed and sent a text message to Lin Yi, reminding her that she should get up too. Although I had told her last night and she said she would get up early with me, accompany me to have breakfast, and go to the basketball court to watch me play basketball, I was still a little afraid that she would forget, so I sent her a text message.
After sending the text message, I got out of bed as fast as I could, put on my clothes, washed up, and prepared to go downstairs to wait for Lin Yi. But when I was going downstairs, I suddenly noticed my colorful hand, and my steps that were originally running towards Lin Yi’s dormitory suddenly stopped. I lowered my head and looked at my hand covered with cartoon band-aids. I couldn’t help but think about what Lin Yi would think if she saw that the band-aids she had applied to me so carefully had turned into these colorful things, and if she knew that it was Zhang Nuan who applied it to me...
Although she won't say anything, because she is a reasonable person, she will just bear it slowly and convince herself that this is just a friend's concern for me, but she will still be sad, right
Whenever I thought of the way she lowered her head and blew gently on my hand yesterday, my heart ached. When I thought of this, I immediately turned around and ran to the supermarket, and bought a lot of white band-aids that Lin Yi had put on me yesterday. However, when I walked outside the supermarket and was about to change the band-aid on my hand.
I hesitated again, but I just stood there hesitating for a moment before I peeled off all the colorful band-aids and threw them into the trash can at the entrance of the supermarket. Then I walked towards Lin Yi's dormitory while putting new band-aids on my hands. Although I thought of Zhang Nuan's depressed figure under the basketball hoop yesterday when I hesitated just now, I knew that there would always be someone unhappy about this kind of thing, and at this moment I could only let that person be Zhang Nuan, because I silently told myself in my heart that the carefree Zhang Nuan would never be sad for too long because of this kind of thing. She would forget about it in a short while, and she only cared about me as a friend. She shouldn't be sad because of this kind of thing. She should understand.
I subconsciously sighed and shook my head, but thought silently in my heart, because we are best friends, and we can only be friends, because I already have Lin Yi, so we can only be best friends forever.
I pasted it all the way as I walked, and when I arrived at Lin Yi's building, I had almost finished. Although it was not as good as the one she put on yesterday, I believed that she would not be able to tell the difference as long as she didn't look closely.
I waited for a while downstairs of her dormitory and she came downstairs. She looked much more energetic than me. I was not yawning all the time. I asked her why she was so energetic, and she said that she usually got up early to read a book or something, so she was used to it.
I don't know if it was because of the Band-Aid on my hand that made me feel guilty, but I kept chatting with Lin Yi along the way, so she didn't have the chance to notice my hand. Fortunately, when we arrived at the cafeteria, we found that there were a lot of people having breakfast. We waited in line for a while but the time was almost up, so we could only take the buns and soy milk to the basketball court to eat. So Lin Yi had no chance to observe my hand carefully.
When we arrived at the basketball court, we saw that they had not arrived yet, so Lin Yi and I sat down at the edge of the court and started eating. I don’t know if it was because of the Band-Aid incident that I had no appetite at all, and I was always feeling uneasy. Even the meat buns that usually tasted the best had no taste today. I kept thinking about what would happen when Zhang Nuan saw the Band-Aid I had just changed on my hand. Would she be as depressed as she was yesterday? But what could I do
What can I do? Lin Yi seemed to notice that something was wrong with me today, so she tilted her head and gently asked me what was wrong, why were you frowning so early in the morning? I said no! Lin Yi tapped my eyebrows with her hand and said, you are almost twisted together, but you are still stubborn! I said "oh", with a somewhat unnatural look on my face, "ah, it's nothing, it's just that we didn't train well yesterday, I'm a little worried."
Lin Yi comforted me again. I kept nodding my head, but I was still worried that Zhang Nuan would see the band-aids on my hands in a while. At this time, Zhang Nuan and the others came. Not only the two of them, but also the Korean girl was with them. I was stunned when I saw them, and found that Zhang Nuan was also holding a bunch of breakfast bought from the cafeteria, and Ai Yi was holding a basketball in her hand.
Lin Yi and I both stood up from the ground and prepared to greet them. At first, I subconsciously wanted to hide my hand behind my back, but I suddenly realized that this was not something that could be solved by just hiding my hand. Instead of hiding it behind my back, it would be better to let Zhang Nuan see it as soon as possible. It’s better to suffer a short pain than a long one, I said to myself in my heart. In fact, I knew that I just wanted to solve this matter as soon as possible, because if it existed for one more second, it would be one more second of torment for me.
When they came over, I saw at first glance that Zhang Nuan and Ai Yi noticed my hand. At this moment, the white Band-Aid on my hand seemed to be more dazzling than any other color. I stared at Zhang Nuan's eyes without blinking, as if I was afraid to miss any of her reactions. I didn't know what I wanted to see, but when I saw a hint of surprise and sadness flash across her eyes, my heart hurt as if someone had grabbed it with their hand. Although it was only for a moment, it hurt much more than when I thought Lin Yi would be sad in the morning. It seemed that all the pains were not as good as this one. Although the look in her eyes disappeared quickly, and it seemed that no one noticed it except me, I suddenly felt how good it would be if I hadn't secretly replaced those Band-Aids in the morning, but I just held Lin Yi's hand and walked towards them.
Apart from a barely noticeable look that flashed across Zhang Nuan's eyes, a big smile immediately appeared on her face as she looked at Lin Yi beside me. Before I could introduce Ai Yi and the Korean girl next to her to Lin Yi, Zhang Nuan ran up and forced a greeting to Lin Yi with a standard bear hug. Damn, I couldn't help but feel a little worried when I saw it, because that idiot Zhang Nuan hugged so tightly that their chests were almost bursting when squeezed together. Zhang Nuan and Lin Yi were both smiling happily like two good friends who had met after a long time. After seeing the sincere smile on Zhang Nuan's face, I felt a little better temporarily, and then I kept comforting myself in my heart that she would be fine.
Then I introduced Ai Yi and Kim Hee Sun to Lin Yi. When I introduced Ai Yi, she was still as cold as usual, but Lin Yi also greeted her politely. However, when I introduced Kim Hee Sun to Lin Yi, she felt the same as I did when I heard the name, and almost laughed out loud, but fortunately she controlled herself. Of course, Kim Hee Sun also used the same black people's greeting gestures.
When I saw that everyone was there, but Zhang Tong and the other three hadn't arrived yet, I told Ai Yi that they might have overslept, so I gave them a call. However, when I called, I found that Zhang Tong's phone was not turned on. I called Dayao again, but his phone was also turned off. And because I didn't know Lao Qian's phone number, I couldn't contact them at all. I was a little puzzled at the time, because if they hadn't gotten up, I could understand it, but what did turning off their phones mean? Did they not want to come
But judging from what Zhang Tong said last night, it was unlikely that they would not come. Even if they didn’t come, they should have notified me. Ai Yi asked me what was wrong, and I said it was nothing. I didn’t know why their phones were turned off. I would go to their dormitory right away and wake them up directly.
Ai Yi snorted disdainfully, waved her hand and said no, if you go through all this again, your morning will be wasted, you should practice first. I stood there and could only listen to Ai Yi's words, picked up the basketball sullenly and prepared to shoot, but Ai Yi asked me to run a few laps first, so I started jogging around the basketball court.
