Goodbye Midsummer 2

Chapter 3 Missing

Living alone, what words should be used to describe it?

After Shen Yi graduated, he moved back to the four-bedroom house from the student dormitory.Father and Aunt Xue have never been back to this home since they went to the United States, and only made a hasty phone call across the country during the Mid-Autumn Festival to ask for warmth.From the words, Shen Yi could feel their busyness and fatigue, and therefore, Shen Yi always took the initiative to hang up the phone on the grounds of being busy, saving many unnecessary pleasantries.

He didn't miss his father, after all, that man had never been a family man since he was young.

He didn't miss Aunt Xue either. To put it bluntly, the time that this stepmother spent with him was very short and limited, so short that he didn't feel like a family member towards her.

The only thing he misses is Qin Yang.

It was the younger brother who was occasionally nagging, and occasionally cold and alienated.

It was the younger brother who was sometimes reliable like an adult and sometimes helpless like a child.

But Qin Yang never took the initiative to call back, and the only few calls were made by Shen Yi.

He could only learn about his life in the United States in those few phone calls: what kind of single student dormitory he lived in, what clubs he joined, what subjects he took...

Qin Yang's words are always very concise, never revealing anything.Shen Yi is also not easy to ask, every time he hangs up the phone, he feels that he is still the same as before the call - he doesn't know anything.

Since working in the school, Shen Yi's working hours have become very unstable.Unlike ordinary office workers who have fixed working hours, school work is heavy and full of flexibility.Sometimes when I get busy, I go out at six o'clock and can't come back until twelve o'clock in the evening; but if I am free, the class is over and there are no extra tasks, I may rest at home all afternoon to catch up on sleep.

Because of such uncertain commuting time, Shen Yi also has fewer opportunities to cook at home.When he is busy, he has three meals a day at school; but even when he is free, he has no intention of cooking a meal for himself, and always orders takeaway.

After all, he was the only one in such a big house.

Whenever he sits at the dining table and eats the takeaway ordered by the little yellow light above his head, he can't help but think of Qin Yang.

If Qin Yang was there, he would definitely sit on the opposite chair, frown and say to him, "Why are you eating unhealthy things?"

Missing, infiltrated in the trivial things of daily life.Hidden in the invisible, yet visible.

Sometimes, he would sit in Qin Yang's bedroom and look at the empty room for a whole night.

So far, he still can't figure out what kind of feelings he has for Qin Yang.

He only knew himself, and missed that person terribly.

On the first day Liang Ziji came back from class for self-reflection, Shen Yi called him out.

Instead of going to the office, which would make the air even more tense, Shen Yi took him to the boulevard outside the teaching building, walking unhurriedly.

Liang Ziji's school uniform was hanging loosely on his body, the zipper was open, and the trouser legs were obviously too long, with a defensive look on his face, he followed Shen Yi two steps behind.

Shen Yi looked back at him from time to time: "Did I fall asleep after watching your Chinese class just now?"

Liang Ziji didn't answer, "I don't care" was written all over his sharp-edged face.

Shen also knew that he would not listen to persuasion at all, so he gave up the idea of ​​preaching a long time ago, and just said indifferently: "You have just transferred here, maybe you don't know, the sports committee of our class has been vacant recently. I think you are so good at fighting, when A sports committee shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Liang Ziji froze for a moment: "Huh?"

"Then it's settled."

"I'm not right!" He counterattacked Jedi.

"The refusal is invalid." Shen Yi smiled, "The letter of appointment has been posted, and it has been publicized in the class for a week. The rule of our class is that if I do not refuse during the publicity period, and the students in the class do not object, after the publicity is over It will come into force.”

"This is breaking the rules! I don't even know about it!" He was a little annoyed.

"After all, it was posted the week you were suspended for introspection. It's normal for you not to know." Shen Yi patted him on the shoulder, "But this is the rule of our class, so even if you don't want to, this sports committee member still has to be .”

"I don't care!" He turned his face away in despair.

Looking at his stubborn side face, Shen Yi said slowly: "You will hurt the hearts of those who nominated you."

"What nomination?"

"A few people in the class recommended you to me, saying that you are quite suitable to be a sports committee member, so I posted the letter of appointment."

Shen Yi observed his expression carefully, and sure enough, after saying this, the stubbornness on his face seemed to soften a little.

"Who?" he asked.

Shen Yi smiled: "According to class rules, I cannot disclose the name of the nominee."

"What kind of class are you in? You break so many rules." He whispered.

Fortunately, Shen Yi didn't mind his wording, and still had a gentle face: "Then it's settled. From today on, you will be the sports committee member of our class. If you don't understand anything, remember to ask Luo Shuan .”

"Who is Luo Shu'an?" Liang Ziji looked bewildered.

Shen Yi sighed.It's been a month since the transfer, and this guy doesn't even know who the squad leader is.

"The one sitting next to you is Luo Shu'an. Our class monitor."

"That bookworm..." Liang Ziji snorted disdainfully, "Isn't the one sitting next to me a woman?"

Shen Yi glared at him: "Since you are in a coma all day long in the classroom, does it make any difference whether the person sitting next to you is a man or a woman?"

Liang Ziji finally had nothing to say and scratched his head.

Liang Ziji fell asleep for the rest of the day's class.

In the last self-study class in the afternoon, Shen Yi called Luo Shu'an to the office, told him a few things, and told him the conversation with Liang Ziji in the morning.

"He is now the sports committee member of our class. If there is anything he is not doing well, please remember to remind him."

Luo Shu'an was a little curious: "Teacher, how did you convince him to become a sports committee member?"

"I said someone nominated him, and he believed it." Facing this reliable squad leader, Shen Yi smiled, and revealed all his little tricks, "Liang Ziji is the kind of person who, if he lives up to other people's expectations, will A more motivated person. If you keep labeling him as a poor student, he will always be in a muddy state. But if you tell him that someone believes he can succeed, then maybe he will succeed."

Luo Shuan listened carefully, and silently hugged the book in his arms tightly: "Then I know, I will pay attention to spur him in the future."

"Take your time, don't be too hasty. He has an awkward personality." After a month of observation and visits, Shen Yi had a more or less clear understanding of Liang Ziji's temper.He knew that Luo Shuan was a serious and responsible person, but he was also worried that he would go too far.

"You usually just help me pay attention to him." Shen Yi said.

Luo Shuan nodded meekly.

When I got home from school, it was already the time when the lights were on.

Holding the bento he bought from the convenience store, he opened the door and walked into the dark room.Pressing the switch of the entrance, the lights in the hall instantly lit up.

Next, turn on the TV and turn on the air conditioner as usual.He was sitting at the dining table in the corner of the living room, eating bento with his head down, while listening to various news from the TV.

I don't know when he started to develop the habit. When eating alone, he always turns on the TV and let those meaningless voices accompany him to eat.

The taste of the bento was as usual, no surprises.He hastily finished eating, cleaned up the kitchen, and prepared to enter the house to prepare lessons.

When passing by Qin Yang's bedroom, he stopped involuntarily, opened the door and took a look.

There are still empty beds, empty desks, and outside the drawn curtains is the night view of the city reflected in the glass mirror.

He leaned against the door for a while, then slowly closed the door.Accompanied by the sound of the TV, he walked away alone.

Living alone, what words should be used to describe it?

Lonely?Still lonely?

Nothing seems right.

The most accurate adjective should be - miss.
