Childhood Friends | Slice of Life | Bittersweet Ending | Short Piece
They say childhood friends are family without blood ties. The bond between Yun Muxiang and Shen Linyuan was set in the womb. They've attended the same school from kindergarten through high school. From earning the same number of little red flowers as children to being tied for first place now, they've always walked side by side.
The only obstacle between them is that Shen Linyuan was born with a hereditary genetic stomach disease, one that's life-threatening and extremely difficult to treat.
Because of this, when Yun Muxiang entered high school, she chose science, even though it wasn't her strong suit. She wanted to study hard and come back one day able to cure Shen Linyuan's genetic disease with her own hands.
On the day the first snow fell, she and Shen Linyuan made a promise to get into Y University, the nation's top school for medicine. The boy smiled and said he'd follow her wherever she went.
From childhood onward, Shen Linyuan had never left her side. Like the moon forever orbiting the earth, Yun Muxiang was his sky and the center of his orbit, his course unwavering.
Vows made in falling snow ought to last forever. Yun Muxiang always believed that, until she learned that fate doesn't always grant our wishes, and heaven had never once looked kindly on her.
