Recently, I faced the biggest crisis of my life.
My hated ex, Ji Luan, has been sending me heaps of messages at all hours of the night ever since we broke up, then recalling them one by one before I wake up, as if she can pretend nothing happened.
Of course I know I could stay up all night and see what she's up to, but I refuse.
I'm not going to give up a healthy sleep schedule for an ex.
But everything took a huge turn one morning.
I woke up and, out of habit, opened my chat with Ji Luan. Among the familiar rows of recalled messages, I saw a long string of white message bubbles.
[Miss you.]
[Really want to get back together.]
[I was wrong. I promise I won't get jealous over nothing again.]
[Without you, I can't even get motivated to work. TT]
I'm absolutely certain Ji Luan hit recall on all that crazy talk before I could see it.
But unfortunately, from that day on, I could see every message she recalled.
Our chat was now full of countless one-sided pleas to get back together.
Hahaha, hahaha, hahahahaha!
This feels great.
But as time went by, my feelings for her started getting a little strange too.
Through the cafe's floor-to-ceiling window, I saw Ji Luan drinking coffee and taking a call. On impulse, I typed:
[Want to get back together?]
Before Ji Luan even saw the message, I regretted it and recalled it at lightning speed.
I'm absolutely certain I recalled the message before Ji Luan hung up.
Ten minutes later, the special notification I'd set for Ji Luan started ringing nonstop.
[Though I wasn't planning on it.]
[But.]
[I saw the message you recalled.]
[Since you want us to get back together, I can...]
[Agree, with some reluctance.]
?
SOS.
My recall button stopped working too.
/Shen Xizhou, Xiyi. Why does even writing it in pinyin get me flagged?
