Miss First Love [A Gentleman's Dignity]

Colin's voice came from the bathroom, waking Jin Eunxi from the dream of memories.

"You are my dad, really?" Colin faced the mirror, folded his hands on his chest, and tilted his head slightly. "What do you know, introduce yourself." He lowered his arms, "No, start over."

"You are my father, really?" As he spoke, he looked around in the mirror and nodded, "That's right, he does look a lot like me, with double eyelids, a high nose bridge, and a small mouth. He's barely handsome... ..." While speaking, he caught sight of Jin Enxi standing at the door from the corner of his eye. "It scared me to death, and I didn't make a sound no matter how I got up."

Jin Enxi smiled: "I see you are so devoted, it's not easy to interrupt you."

"Where do I put it, I just looked in the mirror." Then he walked around Enxi's side and walked out of the bathroom. "You wash up, I'm done."

Jin Enxi and Colin were walking on the road of University Street. There were row upon row of small shops and various signboards.There are also many tall buildings standing on the side of the road, with modern decoration and continuous flow.She even began to wonder secretly, is this really the same place as she remembered.

Yesterday, I found on the Internet that the restaurant she and Jin Daozhen used to go to ten years ago is still there. She was inexplicably surprised, and even vaguely felt that it was a fateful arrangement. What she didn't say ten years ago was destined to be completed in the original place. So choose today's date here.

Jin Enxi looked at Colin's happy figure: "Sorry, I only took you out today. I was bored in the hotel yesterday, and I will show you around tomorrow."

Colin was a little cautious, and hurriedly changed the subject: "Mom, did you often come here when you were in school? Roscoco Fried Chicken...HelloKitty Coffee Shop...OMALA Ice Cream Shack...there are many kinds of food."

"Colin, go slowly, don't get lost."

"It's not a child anymore." He muttered like this, but he still obediently followed his mother's pace.

"It was not like this in the past. The changes have been great, and the decoration style is also different." Jin Enxi sighed.

Colin asked: "Is that better before, or better now?"

"It's become more prosperous now, and it must be getting better and better; of course, I still miss the way it was before, after all, that's what I'm familiar with."

They strolled and chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they arrived at the restaurant they had agreed upon. The name of the restaurant was Encounter, and they encountered Western food.

October 1993, 10, that day was Saturday, the sky was clear, although there was a slight cold wind, Kim Eun Hee and Kim Do Jin still felt warm and sweet.Like all couples who have just confirmed their relationship, they couldn't help smiling while walking on the street holding hands.

"Eunxi."

"what happened?"

"My hands are cold, how about you?"

"No, I'm not cold." Seeing Jin Daozhen's flattering expression, Jin Enxi pretended not to understand, and looked at him innocently.

Jin Daozhen looked excited, "Really, that's just right." Then he grabbed Enxi's hand.Nodding his head, "Well, it's really warm, let Ouba warm me up."

Enxi smiled and withdrew her hand, "Ouba, what should I do, I feel cold too."

"Really, put it in quickly, it won't do to make Enxi so cold." Dao Zhen hurriedly held Enxi's hand, and licked his jacket pocket.

Looking at Jin Daozhen's smug expression, Jin Enxi couldn't help laughing.

In the coldness of late autumn, they clasped their fingers tightly, and the heat seemed to pass through the fingertips, along the arms, and spread deeply to the bottom of their hearts.

Watching movies, shopping, and laughing all the way, I came across this Encounter.At that time, it was still a storefront on the first floor, with bluestone fronts and wooden signboards engraved with this "encounter", as if the two of them met, and a glass greenhouse was isolated in the noisy background. The quietness and longness of the years.

They walked in with a tacit understanding, and while eating, Jin Daozhen smiled at the boss: "Boss, you have to do it for a long time, and we will come to eat every year in the future."

The proprietress in the store said with a smile, "Of course. You are so handsome, and your girlfriend is also very beautiful. The two of you look like a pictorial. You should be together for a long time."

When I was in my early twenties, I didn't think about how long it would last. I just hoped that the happiness in front of me would not stop.But unexpectedly, this store has really gone through ten years.Now the store has been replaced with two floors, and the wooden signboard is still hung at the door, but the store name surrounded by neon lights is pasted on the floor-to-ceiling windows on the second floor. The colors are bright, and it must be even more colorful at night.

It was only 10:30, and there were not many people in the store. The waiter warmly welcomed Enxi into the store.

"Welcome, how many are there?"

Colin stretched out three fingers, "Three, me, my mother, and my father."

The waiter smiled and nodded, "Okay, this way, the seat by the window is still inside."

"Near the window."

"Okay, is it okay here?"

Colin sat down and looked down, with a wide view, "Ok. Mom, please sit down."

"Sister, my father is still on the way, can we wait for him to come and order?"

"Of course, I'll serve you some tea first."

Customers came to the store one after another, and the voices gradually heated up. At the beginning, Colin happily asked Enxi about things, as if he had participated in his parents' school days, and expressed his opinions and comments.

The surrounding tables were gradually filling up. Every time a waiter came to add water, Colin was like a kitten whose tail was burned, fidgeting and turning his head to the window abruptly, not daring to meet the waiter's eyes.Every time he saw a lone man walking downstairs, he would anxiously ask, "Come on, mom, look, is it that one?"

Seeing that Colin frowned tightly, Jin Enxi's heart ached.

"Don't worry, we came early. It's only 11:30, which happens to be lunch time. Maybe Dad just got off work, and there's a bit of traffic jam on the road. On the way here, we can't break the traffic rules because of impatience, right?"

"But it's Saturday. And you agreed yesterday."

"Sometimes I have to work overtime on Saturdays. If there is an emergency, there is nothing I can do. Are you hungry, or should we order food first and wait for him while we eat?"

"I'm not hungry."

"Then order first, maybe he will come later. Look at the menu, what do you want to eat?"

Colin didn't bother to look at the menu carefully, and saw waffles on it, and remembered the taste of eating in Myeongdong yesterday, so he ordered three plates of waffles hastily.

Although what he said to comfort Colin was sensible, but Jin Enxi felt uneasy in his heart.Yesterday's meeting made her feel that Jin Daozhen's feelings for her had already gone out of the past.She asked him to meet someone today, and made an appointment at such a suggestive place, could he have already guessed what she was going to tell him today.So I didn't come on purpose to express my refusal.

Time passed cruelly, and by lunchtime, the shop was bustling.Every table was eating with laughter and laughter, but the two of them at this table silently faced the three plates of waffles, feeling a bit out of place.

Jin Enxi watched Colin change from anticipation to anxiety, from anxiety to anxiety, from anxiety to disappointment, from disappointment to what he is now, as if he was exiled from the world and could not find the meaning of his existence.

She didn't even dare to find any more excuses to comfort Colin, because they also knew that this was just a self-deceiving excuse. Jin Enxi also believed that Jin Daozhen would not come back today.

"The waffles are getting cold, let's eat first," she said.

Colin didn't make a sound, just quietly picked up the tableware and started eating.He ate neither fast nor slow, and neither felt the misery of not being able to eat, nor the grief and indignation of wolfing down.He just kept eating, one piece, two pieces, finished what was on his own plate, then took the one he ordered for his father, three pieces, four pieces, and continued to eat the remaining piece on Enxi’s plate, five pieces .

Until three o'clock, there were only the two of them in the store as when we came.In three hours, Colin ate five waffles.The shop assistants started to clean up, but fortunately no one came to ask if they had finished their meal, otherwise it would be the final sentence.

Kim Eun-hee insisted on staying in her seat, as if she was throwing in the towel if she got up.Knowing that this is a hopeless wait, but she still has to persevere. There seems to be a tiny bit of hope in her heart. As long as she doesn't bow her head, there may be a possibility of a comeback.Standing behind her is Colin, even if there is still a ten thousandth hope, she will do her best.She kept repeating in her heart, please, Jin Daozhen, please show up quickly.

But Colin is going to resign himself to fate.He said to Enxi: "Mom, let's go, the meal is finished, he won't come." His voice was dull and lifeless.

Jin Eunxi's heart ached in an instant, and she tacitly led Colin away from this place that bore their expectations and witnessed their disappointment.

Jin Enxi suddenly hated Jin Daozhen, what right did he have to hurt Colin so much, she wished she could rush to Jin Daozhen immediately, beat him with the most vicious fists, and stab him with the cruelest words.

Ten years ago, she didn't dare to ask in person: "Jin Daozhen, I'm pregnant with your child, what do you want to do?" She was afraid of hearing him say in pain that he didn't want the child.Not wanting this child was like giving up their love, so she fled away in embarrassment.

Ten years later, she came back with a cute, obedient, coquettish girl, who would consciously do her homework seriously, serve her meals, give her umbrellas, go shopping with her, and help her when she was sick. Hold her tightly, kiss her softly, smile like a sky without a speck of dust, Colin, her son, who will tightly entangle every thread of her thoughts, she muster up the courage to complete what she didn't have ten years ago. Ask the question.

But it turned out that the answer was already doomed.Whether it was ten years ago or ten years later, his rejection will not change.

But how could he, how dare he hurt Colin.No, ten years ago, he would have hurt Colin, her favorite son, in even crueler ways.

She wanted to take Colin away from this place immediately, and hide him properly, so that he would not cry or be hurt. She only wanted him to be safe and happy for the rest of his life, free from worries.
