Introduction to "Rainy Season Observation Records in the Mailbox"
In her sophomore year of high school, transfer student Shen Zhixia picked up a letter painted with light blue iris flowers in the rusty mailbox at the back door of the classroom. The handwriting on the letterhead was so neat and almost deliberate that it read "To you who will always look out the window." From then on, every rainy season, new letters would appear in the mailbox on time - secrets about the last row of bookshelves in the library, the trajectory of falling ginkgo leaves at dusk, and the young man's secretly hidden love.
Shen Zhixia pieced together the outline of the writer between the lines, but could never get the number right. Until one day, the letter in the mailbox suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a yellowed notebook. The title page said: "The observation record ended on June 17, 2019, rain." Turning over the inner pages, there was a shocking truth hidden in the dense handwriting: those gentle words were actually written by Jiang Feng, a classmate suffering from ALS. He used his last strength to turn his love into the rainy season that will never fade, but he left his life forever at the age of flowers.
Many years later, Shen Zhixia returned to the empty classroom, and half a dry iris petal floated out of the rusty mailbox. It turns out that what she missed was not only someone's love, but also a silent farewell written with her life.
Purpose: Describe the delicate emotions expressed by the boy in the letter and the final regretful ending, to show the beautiful but helpless love in youth, or to highlight the fragility and impermanence of life, making people cherish the current time and the people around them. Different conceptions will cause the works to present different styles and depths, leading readers to have different emotional resonances and thoughts.
