Cebu Rain

The small southern town has fallen into the continuous rainy season, with misty rain and mist lingering all day long. Shen Chuji and Shen Wuyan are stepbrothers in a reorganized family. Shen Chuji, who is two years older, is a senior in high school. He is calm and restrained and has been silently looking after Shen Wuyan, a sophomore in high school. Every day after school, Shen Chuji would hold a black umbrella and follow Shen Wuyan through Youchangchang Alley. Most of the umbrella's surface was tilted toward his younger brother, letting half of his body get wet in the rain. The companionship day after day in the humid environment made Shen Wuyan develop a heartbeat that transcended the boundaries of brothers, and dependence gradually turned into a secret love. On a thunderstorm night, Shen Wuyan, who was afraid of the thunder, sneaked into Shen Chuji's room and slept together all night, bringing the ambiguity and struggle to its peak. Shen Chuji has long been in deep trouble, but he has always suppressed his true feelings as an elder brother, repeatedly suffering between protection and alienation. The eyes of others on campus, the secular rules, and the expectations of family members all trapped the two teenagers. They secretly worried about each other on the classroom window sill and in the misty old alleys. On the surface, they maintained the appearance of normal brothers, but in private they were repeatedly tortured by their worries. Throughout the long summer, rain and fog enveloped the whole city. My love was hidden under the sound of rain and thick fog, and I dared not express it openly. With youthful throbbing and ethical shackles constantly pulling at him, the young man slowly grows up in confusion, guilt and affection. They agreed to finish high school safely, keep the secret, and wait for the day when the rainy season ends and the fog clears. This is a secret affair that belongs to adolescence, a forbearing love in the rain and fog, saving each other in the long rainy season, waiting for the rain to clear up. Purpose: Young people protect and support each other, study with peace of mind, and survive the period of youth confusion.
