My name is Li Xia. In the summer of 2000, I met him.
Shi Yu, a man who appeared out of nowhere in the building across from mine.
Young, mysterious, handsome, and mute.
I drew close to him and won him over.
In the sweltering summer nights of Xicheng, our secrets were a 1997 calendar and a cat named Meiqiu.
The stirrings of youth, and secret abandon.
Then summer ended, and the rain stopped.
I left.
What happened to him?
"The first year of the new century was already half over. Apart from breaking a leg playing ball, he was safe and sound.
If he hadn't developed a secret longing for that man who appeared out of nowhere,
if he hadn't walked into that old, empty building one dark night.
Li Xia thought he would have stayed safe and sound.
Until freedom came."
The characters aren't perfect. Each has their own struggles and choices!
