"Later on, when no one calls out "An'an" anymore, there will be two figures looking back."
——
On the first day of high school, the school gate is bustling with people, and the noise is filled with the excitement and anxiety of the new students. Suddenly, a loud "An'an" penetrated the crowd, with the unique cheerfulness of young people.
The next second, the two figures turned back at the same time - their eyes suddenly collided in the air, causing a silent ripple. This was the first meeting between Chi Yuan and Xu Yuan. An accident caused by their names quietly laid the foundation for their fate.
In the days that followed, every corner of the campus was gradually stained with their traces. It's the eye contact when we pass each other in the corridor, the inadvertent following in the classroom, the tit-for-tat when arguing, and the silent protection in silence. The small tenderness hidden in time, and the unspoken joy make the word "meeting peace" the most touching footnote in youth.
They thought that this encounter would be the beginning of a long time, but they didn't know that fate had already written the ending in the dark. When the midsummer wind takes away the last trace of warmth, and when the familiar figure completely disappears from sight, all the sweetness turns into bone-gnawing pain.
"Meeting An" is, after all, a grand regret. One person is stuck in his best years forever, while the other person is full of yearning for her, in a world without her, chanting the name over and over again that he can no longer respond to. Year after year, no one would go with him on his journey to peace.
Intention: Fame is bound to youth, but ultimately it is difficult to calm down.
