Three streetlights in an old community are broken. The management said they would fix them next week. They have been saying so for two months.
Gu Tian carried the plastic bag from the convenience store and walked up the dark corridor. I worked overtime until 11:30, and I was as tired as a salted fish. There was only one thought left in my mind - go back and fall asleep.
As soon as he reached the corner of the third floor, he heard movement above.
It was a very soft sound, like a cat scratching the floor.
Gu Tian looked up. The emergency lights in the corridor on the fourth floor were still on, and a figure appeared in the dim light.
Su Ci stood at the door of his house, holding the key and stabbing at the keyhole for a long time, but he couldn't get it in.
She was wearing a white loose knitted sweater, her hair was draped loosely on her shoulders, and her eyes were covered with a white ribbon. Holding a stick in his left hand and a key in his right hand, he was very close to the door, almost touching his face.
"Sister Su?"
Su Ci paused with her hand and turned her head sideways.
"Gu Tian?"
Her voice was soft and a little embarrassed.
