When they were little, the neighbors used to tease Ye Jiale for becoming Ren Zhizhou's little shadow as soon as she got a new big brother.
Ye Jiale would proudly take Ren Zhizhou's hand and say:
"Of course! We're the best brother and sister in the whole wide world!"
Years later, Ye Jiale's friends couldn't help being surprised when they met Ren Zhizhou for the first time.
"Lele, you're not related by blood, are you? How come you look so much alike?"
Ye Jiale smiled without answering, a thoughtful look on her radiant face.
Ren Zhizhou stood behind her and rested his hands on her shoulders. Looking at the tips of her ears, now turning red, he said:
"Maybe we have a married couple's look."
We are two trees leaning on each other, each flourishing in our own way as we grow.
In a forgotten corner, our roots quietly entwine, inseparable.
