When she was eighteen years old, Song Yao stuffed an origami star into Lin Yu's hand, turned around and left.
She didn't say what was written in it. He didn't dismantle it either.
They reunited two years after they broke up. He drove his Porsche to his class reunion, and she sat in the corner wearing her old high school jacket. Everyone thought she dumped him.
It wasn't until later that he took apart the frayed star - inside was her handwriting: "Wait until I come back to find you."
And the one he hid in his pocket said: "I will wait."
——
Those who dare not dismantle are the ones who want them most.
Concept: From the suspenseful opening to the closed ending, Origami Star is the emotional totem of the whole book.
