A diary made this belated golden autumn reflection confusing. In the years that followed, Yan Xiannian could never forget that autumn or the person he had never met. He kept the last page of words in the diary deep in his heart to commemorate that long-overdue love...
The time of youthful secret love is like a net that restricts freedom, entangling and imprisoning our hearts all the time.
Secrets that were once unspeakable, many years later, can still only remain in memories and cannot be mentioned.
The words "I like you" are both too strong and too light. I can't bear the cost of saying them, but I still want to mention them with throbbing.
Cowardice, timidity, and low self-esteem may be childish excuses.
Those years of indulging that were hidden and unknown, can only be found from the thin pages of text when opening the diary, and those eyes and words that followed her can be found, which may prove that I did like you.
If God can still show mercy and allow us to meet again, I think I will still escape and be unable to express my feelings for you.
But then I will ask you: "If the sycamore leaves fall off, will you still look forward to the next autumn?" This sentence has no meaning, but I will still love you.
