world without empathy

Because I signed up for a crash course in swimming, the progress of the course was very fast. As we approached graduation, we followed the tradition here to hold a simple graduation competition on the last day of the course.

A total of 12 students will compete in teams of two, and so on, and the champion will receive a prize from the swimming center.The specific prize is kept secret for the time being, so it is better to say that everyone is facing this competition with the purpose of revealing the answer than to say that they are rushing to be the champion.On this day, we put on our swimsuits as usual, wet our bodies with water, and then stood by the pool and waited for the coaches to be divided into groups.Everyone was listening, for fear that they would miss their opponent's name if they lost their minds, even though they might not know who it was even if they heard the name.

"Shen Ru, Zhou Yue."

I still have some impression of Zhou Yue, he is the tallest person in the class after me.Swimming well, but I haven't swam side by side so I don't know who is faster, but my instinct still tells me that I need to work harder.

After the race started, people jumped into the water one after another and then climbed up the shore. As more and more water marks on the shore, my heart beat faster and faster.If you take the exam as an example, some people's nervousness will be concentrated in the period when they first heard the exam message, that is, during the review period when the exam is approaching, but the initial nervousness will gradually subside as the exam date approaches. The test site is indifferent; some people are calm when they first hear the test information, and have no sense of the progress of the test date, but they will feel intense tension and anxiety from a few minutes before the test.

I belong to the latter.

Finally it was our turn, and we stood side by side at the end of the waterway, throwing ourselves into the water the moment the coach blew his whistle.The water was still cold, and the girl named Zhou Yue and I used our limbs to repeatedly stir the water in the pool, not to be outdone, eager to push ourselves forward by ferrying hard, even if it was only a centimeter away.But we were halfway through the swim and were still on the same page, which made me anxious.Because he swam too hard from the beginning, he also consumed a lot of energy after half of the swim, but if he slowed down in this situation, as long as the opponent took the opportunity to speed up and open the distance, it would be almost impossible to win.

Shen Ru, work harder, work harder, you need the title of champion more than anyone else.

It may be that the repeated warnings played a role, or it may be the reason why the other party is a little weak, so I gradually distanced myself from her.The distance of half a head is enough, look at the shore in front of you, as long as you can touch there first.I tried my best to reach out, and a little, almost, I touched it.

"Shen Rusheng!"

Huh—I breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of my heart, I won.This was the first time I discovered that swimming is not just about being able to float on the water. After that, it was no surprise that I became the champion of this competition, and the prize was the monthly card of the swimming center.The only thing that puzzles me is that Shaonan didn't participate for some reason.

Are you feeling unwell?Or because...

In the bathroom, while I was washing my hair, I thought about the various reasons why Shaonan didn't come to the competition, and I didn't notice the curtain that was pulled open a gap at all.

"I heard that you won the championship, show me what the prize is."

"Ah!" The sudden voice scared me back several steps in a row.Taking a closer look, the guy in front of me with only one head sticking out is not Shaonan——|||

"Hahaha, are you so excited to see me?" Seeing my overreaction, she couldn't straighten up with joy.

"Can you! Don't! Always come in when I'm taking a shower!" I maintained a Baogong face and looked at the smiling girl in front of me.

"Look at your expression just now, hahaha, it looks like a mouse that was caught stealing lamp oil, hahaha! Oh no, I'm out of oxygen..."

"..."

He closed the curtain again, and told himself repeatedly that ignoring it was the right choice, so shouldn't he be worried about this guy?

"Little Shenru, you don't cover up when I see you now, is it because my warm reminder last time made you understand that you have a flat chest that you can't cover?"

"..." Ignoring is the right choice, ignoring is the right choice...

"The reaction is so calm, can't it be enjoying the feeling of being watched naked?"

"..." Ignoring is the right choice, ignoring is the right choice...

"You looked so handsome in the competition just now. I took a picture when I was excited, but I didn't get a picture of your face. It's a pity."

"..." Ignoring is the right choice, ignoring is the right choice...

"Oh, you have so much hair underneath~ Mom doesn't have to worry about you catching a cold anymore."

"Come here, I promise not to kill you!"

Although it was a crash course, learning to swim still took me two weeks.Because I will be leaving in a while, the ownership of the monthly card is naturally transferred to Shao Nan's name. It is called temporary custody, but I think it is no different from the lucky money received during the Chinese New Year.

in a large supermarket

"I still don't understand what going to the supermarket has to do with my winning the championship." I asked her with black lines all over my head.

"To be precise, I should ask you to carry my bag. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to carry my bag."

"..." This guy is definitely not an ordinary person. I glanced at the big and bold 'Rescue Refrigerator Project' on the purchase list and sighed sincerely.

A few minutes later, Shaonan and I shuttled between the display shelves in the supermarket one after the other. To be precise, I should be pushing the shopping cart and she was shuttled in it.

"Hey, don't you want to be so naive!" I tried my best to ignore the strange gazes of the people around me, and expressed my dissatisfaction with her without hesitation.

"Don't you think it looks like you're flying?" She turned her head and looked at me seriously.

"It's serious nonsense." I glanced at a row of crooked characters on the shopping list and asked her, "What did you write?"

"A brand of easily absorbed flavored dairy products."

"Be more common."

"AD calcium milk."

"...why not something else?"

"Because it absorbs easily."

"...Why don't you directly feed the food."

"Baby, you don't love me anymore!"

"..." I want to abandon the car! ! !

It was an hour after I got home, the supermarket was downstairs, and it didn't take too much time to buy things according to the list.It was just because she made another child who was also shopping in the shopping cart cry on the way, so she comforted the child and apologized, and was also given a good meal by the supermarket staff.

"I just saw him touch his face softly...well, he pinched it."

Recalling her wording at the time, I can't help but get black lines, this guy!
