Fragmented

That black cat frequently appears in my dreams.

Standing in the deserted alley, in the middle of the not-so-broad road, I could feel the warmth from my mother's palm, and the bell rang from nowhere, and the palm of my hand gradually became cold.I don’t know when, it became me standing alone in a deserted street, a familiar voice came from my ear, and lonely raindrops dripped from the sky, telling the emptiness of the city.I just stood there, no one told me what happened, but this feeling was imprinted very clearly in my heart, am I lonely?The feet moved involuntarily, along the moss-covered stone steps, and the fingertips slid across the stone walls with life in the cracks, walking in this strange city in a daze.At a street corner, a black cat was lying lazily by the wall. I took a step, and it raised its head keenly. Its green eyes were as bright as jewels.I looked at it curiously, and approached it cautiously pretending not to care, it didn’t seem to notice, I was secretly having fun, but it got up and ran a few steps smartly, then turned around suddenly, that expression seemed to be smiling, I stared blankly at it disappearing before my eyes.I opened my eyes suddenly, and what I saw was the upper bunk, and I looked around, only the sound of breathing and my heartbeat was silent.

I stared blankly at the playground. There were people walking, running, and sitting in a small circle chatting on the lawn of the playground. There were only slow moving figures on the track.The frigid air seemed to freeze my time and I remained motionless.

"Hey, me, what are you doing?" Xu Jiajia tapped my head with her homework, and sat down beside me again.

"Oh, nothing, just in a daze," I glanced at the pen in my hand, "Are you doing your homework?"

"I won't write anymore, I can't write it in," I said, picking up the pen and stuffing it in my pocket, "You don't see me now, do you?"

"What?" I was still looking at the distance in a daze, and said casually.

"It's nothing." Xu Jiajia looked at me, trying to see my face clearly.The school uniform hat blocked my forehead, and the half-length bangs also blocked my eyes. With a pair of glasses, I always felt that I couldn't see clearly, so I reached out to take off my glasses. "Pa" Xu Jiajia covered the back of her hand, frowning and looking at me in horror. I still raised my fist and stared at Xu Jiajia in a daze.The hands of both of them were red, I took another look at Xu Jiajia, took my hand and put it in front of my mouth and blew gently, "I'm sorry, I was taken aback by you just now." "It's okay, but you also It really surprised me, I just wanted to take off your glasses." "Oh, I was in a daze just now." The ringing ended and silence began.I followed in the crowd, disappeared into the crowd, and disappeared from Xu Jiajia's sight.

I don't know when, I feel that facing the dark crowd, I can't help but make people panic.A group of people crowded up a narrow staircase, and I always didn't know how to step down, how to put my hands, and whether to raise my head. All the things that were so natural and should suddenly become extremely difficult. "Huh" as soon as I entered the classroom door, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Sitting back on my seat, I breathed a sigh of relief into my hands, and I immediately stuffed them into my pockets. "Hey, get it for me," Chi Muju stuffed the hot water bottle into Nan Ke's arms, "I'll go to the office to get the computer, the next class is Chinese." "Well, yes—" I replied, While looking at the timetable on the blackboard.After the bell rang, Chi Muju sat back in his seat, and I returned the hot water bottle to me, "Let's 'bake' together, and look at the teacher." "Oh" I nodded with a smirk, and glanced at the teacher.

"Ah, I'm freezing to death, I'm freezing to death." Xu Jiajia rushed to us from the seat behind, "Lend me, Xiaoou."

"No, now the two of us are 'baking', and there is no seat for you." Chi Muju deliberately took up the remaining space and looked at me with a smile.

"Look at my hands are so cold, why don't you use your little boy." Saying that, Xu Jiajia put her hand close to Chi Muju's face.Chi Muju immediately turned his face to one side, Xu Jiajia leaned closer again, Xiaoou had no choice but to keep leaning towards me, almost leaning his whole body on me.I kept moving the stool, and was afraid that Chi Muju would fall down, so I had to support my back with my hands.

"Hey, I have nowhere to move." I finally complained helplessly to the two people who were still playing around.

"Look, where has Nan Ke been squeezed?" Chi Muju smiled and pushed Xu Jiajia away.

"Then will you give it to me?" Xu Jiajia still sat down on Chi Muju's lap. "

"Here, here, get up, you're dead!"

"Hmph, you are the one who is heavy." Xu Jiajia finally stood up.

"Then I'll give it to me," Xiaoou glanced at me, "Why don't you use it together."

"Oh, no, give it to me, my hands are already very hot." I stretched out my hand and covered it in my pocket.

"Alright then," Xiaoou took the hot water bottle and handed it to Xu Jiajia, "Take it, and return it to me during class."

"Okay, I got it." Xu Jiajia walked away contentedly holding the hot water bottle, and Xiaoou left the seat immediately after.

Suddenly I remembered that I hadn't finished my homework yesterday, so I stretched out my warm hands helplessly to fight against the cold air.

After the big break, my hands were already blue from the cold.Chi Muju took back the hot water bottle, but it was no longer warm.

"Ah, really, I don't know how to charge the battery when it's cold." Chi Muzhen complained, and I glanced at my purple hand, "Fortunately, my hand is very hot, and it feels a little too hot. Now, I .”

"Ok?"

"Are your hands cold?"

"It's cold." I thought to myself that it's this color, and it would be too fake to say it's not cold.

"Wow, it's comfortable," Chi Mujue held my hand all of a sudden, "I felt that my hand was very hot just now, but it's much more comfortable now."

"Really, then it's to cool you down and keep me warm, but take your hands back when you feel the same, or your hands will be the same as mine. I won't take the initiative to give up such a good heater " I can feel the temperature from Chi Muju's palm, it's very warm anyway, I'm a bit greedy for this temperature, and I keep clenching my hand tightly.

Throughout the self-study class, Chi Muju's left hand rested on my lap, and my left hand kept changing faces in my palm.Every time I changed faces, I would ask Chi Muju if it was cold, but in the end Chi Muju didn't take back his hand, and the temperature of his left hand lingered on my leg for a long time and didn't dissipate.

With the help of Chi Muju, the big heater, the coldest week was finally over.I rubbed my hands and walked along the dry yellow and hard dirt road to the gray concrete road. I was almost home, and I was grateful in my heart.Gusts of cold wind made my face icy, and at the corner of my house, a black cat appeared in my sight.Usually there are a lot of wild cats near my house, I never pay much attention this time, I excitedly chased the black shadow and ran away from the direction of home.I came to another corner, blinked, and found that the black cat was gone. I looked for several places, but they were all dead ends, and there was no black cat at all.Finally, I gave up searching, and when I got home, the breath of home rushed into my arms with a few traces of coldness.
