The brief companionship in the midsummer of childhood is a tender foreshadowing hidden deep in the memory.
We met again on the university campus many years later. He stood on the podium and became a teacher, and his identity became an invisible distance. I wrote my heart full of joy in my diary, carefully guarding this feeling and not daring to cross the line.
In the eyes of others, it is a story about teachers and students on campus, but to us, it is just the heartbeat of old friends reunited.
When he gave up his identity as a teacher and went to work in a foreign country, he waited for two years and worried about him every year.
With a bunch of peonies as a letter, across time and distance, the former brother and later the teacher finally became a lifelong companion.
Purpose: To tell a story about a long-lasting heartbeat that started in childhood and lasted until adulthood. Identity and distance have never blocked the sincerity. Perseverance and waiting will eventually lead to perfection.
