What should I reply with? Good night? Nah... good night sounds like I’m trying to end the conversation...
Song Qingchun lay in bed, biting her nails, thinking about it for a long ti. She eventually sent a reply. "Have you taken your dicine?"
This ti Su Zhinian’s reply ca very fast. "Not yet."
"Not yet?" Song Qingchun frowned as she typed. She edited the ssage she was typing. "Doctor Xia said, you have to take your dicine tily to have a speedy recovery. Why aren’t you listening to your doctor?"
Su Zhinian, who was leaning against the headboard, smiled when he read that long ssage from Song Qingchun. He couldn’t help but feel warm from her concern for him.
"I’ll take it now." As he typed a reply, he got out of his bed to pour himself a glass of water. Using his good mory, he shook out the portion Song Qingchun had ntioned that afternoon and tossed it all into his mouth. As he placed the glass down, Song Qingchun’s ssage ca. "Do you still rember how many to take?"
Su Zhinian, who had already taken the dicine, replied, "I think so."
It was yes or no question, what does he an by "I think so"? Song Qingchun frowned and formulated a long reply for Su Zhinian. "Two pills from the white bottle, four of the anti-inflammation pills, take one of the smallest white pills, and for the biggest white pills, three."
Song Qingchun received a "Hmm" from Su Zhinian before receiving another ssage. "Done."
Due to so inexplicable reason, she felt really happy knowing he had taken his dicine. Holding the phone in her hand, she wanted to continue the conversation, but she had no idea what to say, so in the end, she rely said, "Good night."
Su Zhinian stared at the two words on screen and a softness circulated in his eyes. He typed, "I love you, good night," on his phone but edited the "I love you" out before he sent the ssage.
When Song Qingchun received the "good night" from Su Zhinian, she felt weirdly comforted. She stared at the ssage for a long ti before raising her finger to swipe up.
She started rereading the ssages they had shared that night. In fact, those ssages weren’t long; in total, there were probably less than a hundred words, but she felt like she was reading sothing more interesting and exciting than a novel.
She reread the ssages many tis, and no matter how many tis she reread the sa thing, she didn’t feel bored. She eventually found herself clamping her hand over her mouth to stop herself from laughing. Song Qingchun bit on her finger with a stupid grin on her face. As she stared at the ceiling, she thought, Does this an that we have ’made up’?
Should be, right? After all, we’re text buddies now!
Song Qingchun pulled the cover over her head and started to giggle.
...
She had no idea that, on the other end, Su Zhinian was rereading their many ssages, too.
His lips were also curved into a smile. He felt like his heart was lting, releasing a warm, fuzzy feeling. However, his smile slowly beca tinged by sadness.
Have we ’made up’ just like that?
It was too wonderful, but the wonderful dream was just one step away from being his biggest nightmare. However, he couldn’t bring himself to hurt her anymore, so he decided to let it be, to maintain their current status quo... to be friends, a pair of normal friends.
...
The next morning, Song Qingchun woke up hugging her phone.
She reread her ssages with Su Zhinian before starting her morning rituals.
