Watching us, we had long surpassed the boundaries of childhood friends.
Yet we also understood that we were forever trapped in this identity called childhood friends.
We grew familiar with this identity and accustod to the advantages it brought.
We could do the things couples do without worrying about the issues real couples face.
We could enjoy each other's feelings, yet we dared not truly take that step, fearing it might destroy this strongest bond between us.
Thus, blessings also beca a cage.
Trapped us for a lifeti..."
Yao Mingyue's voice carried her indelible emotions, regret, remorse.
Many people stood there in a trance, eyes moistened.
"Ring ring..."
The music teacher gazed at Yao Mingyue, who was on the verge of tears, just as his phone rang at an inopportune mont.
The director's voice roared, "What's going on in the broadcast room?"
Perhaps he was the only one in the entire school who hadn't had ti to be moved but was first thinking about the bonus issue.
"Well, maybe this student is just telling a story, students are under pressure, and telling stories can help them relax, isn't that nice..." the music teacher hedged.
"Alright, alright, get the person out of the broadcast room quickly, or I'll call security." Director Wang couldn't bother to listen to more, issuing orders imdiately.
The music teacher hung up the phone, lanting how a higher rank could crush soone. She was about to step into the classroom to give a reminder.
But in the next mont, she saw the girl sitting at the piano, with tears sliding down her cheeks.
She imdiately stopped in her tracks.
Yao Mingyue looked out the window at the familiar school building, the bustling campus, as if truly returning to three years ago, when Xu Musen's eyes were still full of her...
That was a ti only belonging to them.
And those countless confessions without results...
"You always told , the greatest regret is that we were childhood friends for so many years, yet never had a real school romance...
Do you know why I never accepted your confessions before?"
Yao Mingyue's voice traveled through one teaching building after another, through the tranquil corridor of the back garden, into Xu Musen's ears by the gazebo.
Xu Musen knew a little about it.
This Xiao Sickly Cutie, she purposely let him delve deeper and deeper each ti, also letting everyone know that they were a match made in heaven.
"Of course, I had selfish motives... I just wanted everyone to know you liked , so no other girls would fancy you.
I just wanted you to fall deeper and deeper, so from then on, your heart could only hold .
That's how I am, selfish, capricious, and a bit... ntally twisted." Follow current novels on novelfire(.)net
Yao Mingyue's words carried a hint of a smile, now she could face her true inner self so calmly.
The students eavesdropping tilted their ears, letting out surprised sounds.
This behavior... is a bit obsessive.
But isn't this also a form of pure love in its extremity?
"But what you don't know is... actually, I planned to agree to your confession after our senior year of high school graduation.
But... before the college entrance exams, during the physical examination, I truly discovered my heart condition for the first ti..."
Yao Mingyue gently placed her hand on her chest, it was during the eight-hundred-ter run in the physical test before the college exams that she fainted outright.
When she woke up, her mother told her it was just heatstroke, but she still caught a glimpse of her dical report by accident.
Heart artery stenosis...
She had known since she was young that her heart was not strong, but her parents only told her it hadn't developed well and would be fine when she grew up.
But when she finally saw her own dical report, she secretly consulted a doctor alone and truly understood the seriousness of her heart condition...
"From that mont on, I was really scared, not of death, but of truly never seeing you again in the future..."
"I am a cowardly person, I fear that if you knew my problem, you might not want anymore…
I also fear that if you don't mind , but I can't hold on… leaving you alone, how sad would that be..."
Yao Mingyue lightly sniffled, at that ti, she was also just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, facing the person she liked most, even facing her unknown and bleak future... the pressure she bore could really crush a person.
"That's how I am, willful, selfish, unreasonable, because I know, you like , these are privileges you gave .
But, I also feel scared, feel sad, and consider your future…
Because I also like you.
I'm afraid of a world without you, and I fear a world without in yours…
I know you, you fool, if you were really with , and I wasn't around in the future, you truly wouldn't ever like anyone else…"
Yao Mingyue is just such a conflicted person, at the age of eighteen, how could she be so decisive and straightforward?
Eighteen years of being with each other morning and night, eighteen years of shared understanding, eighteen years of promises to grow up together…
How could she really be that selfish, after all, he was her Brother Musen...
The sorrows and joys of people are not interlinked.
But at this mont, the students in the school had transford from re bystanders to those swallowing knives; they didn't know exactly what happened, but at that mont, they could all feel a wave of sourness in their chests.
