When did the threads of fate first intertwine? Ye Yanran thought it was that rainy night.
But she didn't know that, for Lu Yizhou, it wasn't the same rainy night.
In the gym, with nothing but endless darkness and silence so deep they could hear only their own heartbeats, the masked girl and boy were forced to take off their masks. Nearly throwing caution to the wind, they revealed everything. At last, the two people pushed forward by fate truly met.
It was that same rainy night, but the rain that had never stopped for years had woven itself into the little town in Lu Yizhou's heart, the one called Macondo.
Ye Yanran looked at him and forced a smile. She was clearly smiling, but her eyes held too many emotions for him to understand. Only later did Lu Yizhou realize that her smile held resignation to fate, fear and dread of the future, and, above all, despair.
"Lu Yizhou, let's hide somewhere. Then maybe fate won't be able to drag us forward anymore..." Ye Yanran's emotions broke through the dam. In the darkness, mixed in with the falling rain were tears, hot and full of resentment.
At the time, Lu Yizhou thought they still had plenty of time. But Ye Yanran had already said goodbye that rainy night. It was then that he finally understood what she had once told him: "Lu Yizhou, you know, I've always been fearless. If something unexpected appears on the path of my life, I'll abandon it without hesitation. I won't feel any attachment to it, no matter what it is..."
Can time wash everything away? Ye Yanran once thought it could. But when their eyes met across a crowded street, she felt at peace. Was she surprised? A little, perhaps. More than that, she had always known this was inevitable. Ye Yanran thought then: if this was a connection and consequence fate had laid down long ago, she might as well accept it. Even if she had to crash into it and come away battered, she believed she could face it now in the best possible way.
