Lin Zhixia has emotional avoidance disorder
Her parents' endless quarrels convinced her that all intimate relationships would eventually break down. She was most afraid of sudden overtures, of being stared at, and of all relationships that required effort to maintain.
On the day she transferred to Grade 2 (3) class, she felt like she had found a treasure.
My deskmate Jiang Yu is the famous "Jiang Mute" in the whole school. He talks little and is cold. He doesn't like to join in the fun. He does homework in class and goes to bed after class. He can't even take the water offered by girls.
It's so comfortable to be with him. There's no need to find topics, no need to force yourself to laugh, no need to be afraid of saying the wrong thing. They can sit in the library all afternoon without saying a word. They can share a pair of headphones and listen to the same song, and they can tacitly leave space for each other.
Lin Zhixia secretly rejoiced that she finally met someone of the same kind
She approached cautiously. She thought this was the perfect two-way rush between two slow-starters.
Until that day she accidentally knocked over his schoolbag
A locked diary fell out. The date on the first page was the first day she transferred here.
There is only one line above:
"There is a new classmate in the class today, named Lin Zhixia. When she walks, she stares at the tips of her shoes, like a frightened deer.
I seem to like her a little bit. "
It turns out that all coincidences are deliberate and all tacit understandings are accommodations.
He is not slow to warm up
He was just afraid of scaring her, so he put away all his enthusiasm and acted slowly for a whole year, patiently waiting for her to walk towards him step by step.
Purpose: This is a love letter to all "slow starters" and "emotional cowards". If you have ever dared not start because you are afraid of getting hurt, if you have ever felt that you will never meet someone who understands you, I hope this story can tell you: It doesn't matter, you can take your time, there will always be someone who will not think you are slow or push you to grow up. He will stand there and wait for you quietly, wait for you to take off your guard, wait for you to believe in love, wait for you to be willing to go to him.
