In middle school, the girl was chubby, with her face covered in pimples. A chance encounter beneath a ginkgo tree, and a few words of encouragement, helped her regain her confidence. The boy casually handed her a yellowing ginkgo leaf, and it opened the door to her heart.
They meet again in high school. After being bullied, she transfers to a new school, only to find herself sitting next to him. She has become sensitive and withdrawn, and her once-plump body has grown gaunt. The boy does not remember her, but he still encourages her.
Time may carry the years away, but it cannot take the girl’s love with it.
The autumn wind will bring her a flutter of romance.
