Her Thoughts, His World

"Ye Zhiji, what are you thinking about? You're so dazed that you're almost going to go crazy!" Li Panpan's voice was like the chirping of cicadas in summer, a bit noisy but making people unable to help but raise the corners of their mouths. Ye Zhiji raised his head from the pile of books, his eyes a little confused, as if he had just been dragged back from another world. "Nothing, I just thought that this summer vacation would be too boring." Ye Zhiji rubbed his eyes and tried to refocus his eyes on the half-old "The Picture of Dorian Gray" in front of him. She likes to nest in the corner of her room in quiet afternoons and immerse herself in the world of words. It is a way for her to temporarily forget her loneliness. "Bored? Then look at the surprise I have prepared for you!" Li Panpan mysteriously took out a large paper bag from behind, which contained all kinds of weird gadgets - hand-woven key chains, colorful stickers, and a few interesting-looking comic books. "Where did you get all these?" Ye Zhiji was a little surprised. She knew that Li Panpan always had a way to find these seemingly useless but full of fun things. "Of course from the small grocery store near my home! The proprietress is a super interesting old lady. She said these were treasures from her youth, and now she sells them to me." Li Panpan said, dumping the things on Ye Zhiji's bed. "Come, let's take a look together, maybe we can find something interesting." Ye Zhiji was infected by Li Panpan's excitement, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously. She picked up a comic book, flipped through a few pages at random, and couldn't help but laugh: "Panpan, your vision is too unique. Do you still find this kind of old-fashioned comic funny?" "Hey, that's not necessarily true! Maybe there is some treasure hidden in it." Li Panpan came over and studied the comic books with Ye Zhiji. She always had the ability to make anything seemingly ordinary seem interesting. The sunlight outside the window spilled in through the gaps in the curtains, falling mottledly on the two of them. Ye Zhiji suddenly felt that this summer vacation might not be so boring. At least with Li Panpan by his side, those ordinary days could become sparkling. "By the way, Zhiji, what kind of people do you think we will meet when we go to high school?" Li Panpan suddenly stopped what he was doing, with a hint of longing in his eyes, "I heard that the new school is big, and maybe we can meet super powerful people!" Ye Zhiji was slightly startled, she actually rarely thinks about these things. For her, as long as she can continue to be immersed in her own world, it is enough. However, seeing Li Panpan's expectant look, she couldn't help but fantasize: "Maybe I can meet a superhero like in the comics, the one who saves the world." "Haha, then I will be that superhero's assistant!" Li Panpan clapped her hands excitedly, "We can definitely do great things together!" Ye Zhiji was amused. She knew that Li Panpan was always like this, fantasizing about all kinds of wonderful things, while she stayed by his side silently, occasionally chiming in a few words. This simple happiness is her only warmth in this world. "Okay, don't just talk and practice, let's play a game!" Li Panpan suddenly jumped up and took out a pair of ancient-looking playing cards from the paper bag. "I learned a new game from the old lady, let's try it?" Ye Zhiji nodded, put the book aside, and sat around the bed with Li Panpan. The cicadas chirping outside the window are still there, and the sunlight shines in the room, giving it a hint of laziness. In this small room, the laughter of the two girls intertwined, as if the whole world had become gentle. They don't know that the end of this summer vacation will be the beginning of their high school life, and the people and things they are about to encounter will leave deep and shallow traces in their lives.
