24 Year Old Girl

My name is Xingxing (abbreviation), and I was born in an ordinary rural town on August 13, 1998. I have been 23 years old since birth. Tomorrow is my 24th birthday. I have experienced a lot in this half of my life and learned a lot. From childish to mature, from cheerful to serious. A person often matures after experiencing many changes, such as happiness, sadness, etc., From kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school, high school to entering society. In 2019, it was exactly one year since I entered the society. I was at work and was about to buy a high-speed rail ticket to go home. I looked at it again and again and hesitated, and finally did not buy the ticket. In the afternoon, I received a message from my mother saying that my grandma passed away. I thought it was a joke, but how could such a thing be a joke? ... I was looking at my phone in confusion, wanting to buy a high-speed rail ticket to go home, but my mind went blank, and I didn't know how to order it... Tears flowed down uncontrollably. I told our manager that my grandma had passed away, and I couldn't put it down while holding the leave application note, not knowing how to write it. It wasn't until our manager wrote it for me that I handed it to the Human Resources Department. It was too late to buy a ticket at that time. It takes an hour and a half to get to the high-speed rail station from work. My uncle said that some relatives were driving back and asked me to go back with them. I was stuck in a traffic jam on the road for a long time and my tears kept flowing. When I got home, it was already four or five in the morning. If I had bought the high-speed rail ticket earlier, if I had not hesitated, I would have been able to talk to my grandma when I got home...
