No Echo from the North Pole

When she was seventeen, Shen Yu lent Shen Yun a physics notebook. Everything that happened later started from that neat handwriting on that page. Strawberry-flavored milk tea, fingers intertwined under the street lamp, and a New Year's note saying "Spend the day with you." He said he would take you to West Lake after the college entrance examination. The promise made when I was young, I thought it would be fulfilled when I made it. Later he disappeared, only to send a long message late at night. It took Shen Yun six years to find his traces in an old stationery store—— A pen holder with "Arctic" engraved on it, and the writing on the back of a faded photo: "The sun was shining that day. You had a beautiful smile." This is a story about waiting, missing and reuniting after a long absence. Not abusive, not violent, just a clean love that lasted from the age of seventeen to the age of twenty-six.
