Clear Skies on an Unvisited Island

"Perhaps each of us has an unknown island buried deep in our heart, one that never sees the sun."

Wen Siling had a three-week affair with Jiang Jingyuan in a foreign land.

To her, he was like a beautiful dream: a complete stranger who nevertheless made her heart beat with more intensity than anything else.

When she woke from the dream, Wen Siling sent him just one message: "Just pretend I'm dead. Bye."

Then she cheerfully boarded a plane and left without saying goodbye.

Half a year later, on a rainy midsummer day,

Wen Siling was very drunk, standing woozily outside a bar waiting for a ride.

That was when she ran into Jiang Jingyuan, who had come with a friend to celebrate a birthday.

He stood under the eaves, surrounded by a crowd, hands in his pockets, and curled his lips into a smile at her.

Realizing this wasn't a dream, Wen Siling froze in place. "Well, I'll be damned."

The next second, Jiang Jingyuan was already approaching her step by step, carrying the familiar scent she remembered.

Leaning close to her ear, he asked with a not very sincere smile:

"What should we do? Looks like we're destined to meet."

A story about two people destined to meet. Happy ending.
