I said nonchalantly, “Su Qi, there’s no such thing as not being able to go on without another person. After I left Dongyu, it wasn’t as though I couldn’t go on.”
However, he expressed his doubts. “Really?”
I found myself averting my gaze.
“Uh huh! It’s true.”
Even after I left him and was in a foreign land, I had never curled up in a corner of my apartnt, hugging my pillow and crying my eyes out.
I had never stared at the bracelet that he gave and thought of him for days on end, hardly eating or drinking.
I didn’t work my hands off to earn enough money for an air ticket to fly back ho from Los Angeles, only to find that my family had moved and gave no contact address. Neither did I cry in despair when that happened, as I held the crumpled air ticket in my hand.
Instead, “Life was fine for .” I said and smiled faintly.
But Su Qi gave a feeble laugh and replied, “It wasn’t that way for . I had never tried letting go of you.”
His arms tightened around and his voice trembled slightly as he said, “But I regret it. I regret it. This ti, I won’t let go before you!”
“…”
“Xiachun, won’t you be my girlfriend?”
“…”
“Let’s be together. Whether you wish to stay in the country or return to Arica, I’m willing to compromise. As long as we can be together…”
“…”
“Xiachun, won’t you say yes?”
…
I stood there helplessly as he tried all ways and ans to persuade , repeating his request tirelessly, as though he would go on till the end of ti or until I agreed.
Alas, I had to disappoint him.
The end of ti would not co, and I also wouldn’t give in, in a mont of weakness.
I told him, “Su Qi, I’m unable to love anyone else. It’s been eight years and so much has changed, with the exception of this one thing.”
Su Qi stared at and suddenly his eyes curved like crescent moons. “Well then, I have the right to wait for you!”
My chest tightened.
“I will wait for you. I’ll keep waiting, until you are willing to be with .”
I felt my nose stuffing up all of a sudden. “Su Qi, why are you being so silly?”
He lowered his head and nuzzled my nose. “Because I love you so much, silly.”
Exhausted, I took in a breath of fresh air as we walked out of the skating rink. My restless heart cald down almost imdiately.
After saying goodbye to Su Qi, I returned to the apartnt. I looked at the ti. It was already seven in the evening.
I hadn’t eaten dinner, but I wasn’t hungry. Just thinking about the wedding tomorrow made uneasy and even a little anxious. As ti passed, this sense of anxiety grew stronger.
I’d rather suppose it was my smoking addiction acting up, so in order to calm myself, I convinced myself to walk half an hour from the city center to the apartnt.
When I finally arrived at the apartnt building, I raised my head and saw that the lights on the fourteenth floor had gone out. My heart, however, was pounding like a drum. I felt around for my keys and glanced hesitantly at the dark windows again. Ultimately, I didn’t have the courage to open this particular door.
I thought I needed to calm down so more. At the very least, I should learn to face him with a certain peace of mind.
It was already late at night, and most of the lights in the apartnt building had gone out. There was only the white light cast by the few street lamps in front of the apartnt building, but they only accentuated the bleakness of the night.
I leaned against the wall dejectedly and lit another cigarette.. Pinching the cigarette box, I realized it was empty.
