In the new semester of the second year of high school, a boy was temporarily transferred to Class B.
I don't know who it was, but it was rumored that he had not lived in China all year round and had visited the beautiful scenery abroad, so those of us who had never seen the world started to talk to him.
However, we gradually discovered that everything about him was strange: his short and rough self-introduction at the beginning of school, his almost silent speech at ordinary times (technically speaking, it was because he had not learned Mandarin well), his lukewarm attitude towards things... But people often asked him: "Why do you always wear a mask?" And he just explained lightly: "Russia is too cold, and it hurts from scratching on my face, but now I'm used to it."
Then, he himself gradually felt like he was back to the past when it came to these recurring problems. Even if the environment changed, the essence of human beings would not change. He was tired of the life of asking why, and then even if it was silence, it was his own choice in the end.
In this way, we were unable to guess his character in the future. Gradually, we unknowingly isolated him in less than one semester.
He, too, didn't care and didn't complain about it.
One weekend afternoon, Xie Zhuo asked him: "Is our relationship really so bad that you are no longer willing to talk to me? Have I done anything wrong?" He remained silent. This was not Xie Zhuo's fault, it was his own problem.
Even Jiang Yimi, her first friend in China, felt overwhelmed by him. She wanted to persuade him, but she didn't know how to speak.
He always treats everything calmly, does not cross the line, and does not set expectations.
Seeing him like this, Xie Zhuo couldn't let go of him. He defended him and helped him everywhere, but he didn't refuse or express anything.
But finally, he said his first rejection to Xie Zhuo's confession.
This unpredictable boy, until one day, disappeared from everyone's eyes.
[I hope that one day, like the iris, I can truly express my feelings. ]
Intention: Very positive energy.
