[Zhongyingmei] At the end of time

It has been raining for the past few days, and it just cleared up today, the sky is as blue as washing, and the setting sun has dyed half of the sky an extremely bright orange red. The two of them walked back in the direction of the setting sun side by side, with long shadows trailing behind them, like It is a rich oil painting.

Bucky suddenly said while walking, "Steve asked us to go to the movies on Saturday."

Luna blurted out: "Okay, I haven't watched it yet..." She swallowed the words black and white, and continued without changing her expression, "...the movie."

Bucky didn't have any suspicions, but he just made a secret note in his heart that Luna hadn't seen the movie.

At the beginning, Bucky couldn't say whether to agree or disagree with Luna living in their house. The little girl did have a suspicious background, but it was the normally cautious mother who made the final decision and asked her to stay.Bucky naturally had no reason to refute, but he looked at her more or less with a little scrutiny, wondering what kind of ecstasy soup this little girl gave his mother to make countless mothers trust her so much.

Due to his good family education, he didn't get to the bottom of Luna's origin, but he collected a lot of information about her either intentionally or unintentionally.

She has been to China before, and she likes this mysterious oriental country very much.

Her Chinese food is not the same as that of the Chinese restaurant on the corner. To be honest, Bucky doesn't think her food is delicious.

She gets headaches a lot, she just never tells anyone about it.

She had a wonderful confidence in Steve, as if she felt that Steve would be able to accomplish something in the future.

If someone asked a question she didn't want to answer, she would laugh and not answer, then botch the subject.

She is very good-looking, a kind of wonderful good-looking that mixes an innocent look with a romantic background.

Now let's add that her favorite is a little-known book called "The Little Prince", and she has never seen a movie.

After being together for so long, Bucky also had to admit that his mother was right, this girl was indeed not a dangerous person, she belonged to the most harmless kind of tenant in the world.

He didn't understand why he was still unconsciously collecting her information, he took it for granted that he wanted to tease this pretty girl.

In fact, he didn't drink to the point of losing his mind that rainy night.It's just that he watched the girl busy heating milk, and suddenly had a feeling that he should live like this for the rest of his life.

He was terrified by the moment he felt.Eighteen and nineteen-year-old boys are full of enthusiasm for expanding the territory, and they live recklessly regardless of tomorrow.Believe that a man should live vigorously for 40 to [-] years, hold a gun to defend the country, have three or five confidants, carry a bottle of spirits, and have sex with many beautiful girls, even if he is old, he will still be smoking in a bar with little girls An old rascal who brags about his youthful feats.

This very cowboy life blueprint is indeed the vision of the young Bucky, so when he had the idea of ​​an ordinary life for a moment, he even felt a little ashamed.He felt that only those useless men would have such an idea, find a job that can make a living, have a house, a gentle wife and a few children, and live a life that can see the next 30 years at a glance.

Not bombastic at all, boring as hell.

At that time, how did he know that after decades of struggling in the ups and downs of life, he no longer has the right to enjoy this boring ordinary life with blood on his hands.

After discovering his abnormality, he quickly made a decision that he wanted to be with Luna.

He'd had a few, maybe a dozen girlfriends with whom Bucky would lose interest soon after being with them, so he was pretty sure he'd lose interest in her after spending time with Luna, The two parted amicably so that he could happily pursue his life as a cowboy.

Luna knew nothing about Bucky's complicated and naive psychological activities. She was still struggling with her almost pampered familiarity with Bucky, and she made up her mind to keep a distance from Bucky beyond that of ordinary friends.

One of these two wanted to flirt and the other wanted to hide. They chatted with each other along the way. When they got home, Luna unexpectedly saw that Steve was already sitting on the sofa.Steve is a frequent visitor to Bucky's house, but he has a strong self-esteem, in order not to let Bucky's mother keep him for dinner.He almost never shows up at mealtimes.

Bucky was also a little surprised. He took off his coat and asked, "Didn't you say yesterday that there is a party tonight? Why didn't you go?"

Steve hesitated for a moment, but looked at Luna and said, "It was supposed to be a high school class reunion, but they suddenly said they were going to dance and they could bring their own dance partners."

Luna suddenly understood what Steve meant. Probably there were no good girls in his high school classmates, and he couldn't dance, so he came to his only female friend for help.

Luna didn't think much about it: "I can go with you, but I don't have a skirt and shoes for dancing..."

Bucky's mother said enthusiastically: "I have a skirt from when I was young, Luna came up with me to try it on."

Bucky's mother took Luna to the bedroom and said while looking for a skirt, "I haven't danced for a long time, but we are about the same height, you should be able to wear my skirt."

She turned out two dance dresses, one white and one red, and when Luna saw the red dress, she suddenly remembered the dance that Carter and Steve had never been able to dance, so she pointed to the white dress. Said: "This one."

After putting it on, Bucky's mother looked her up and down for a long time, then shook her head and said, "You are not suitable for white, white can't hold you down."

Luna ran to the bathroom to look in the mirror.Although the girl in the mirror had clear eyes, her brows were sharp and her eyes were full of peach blossoms, which made her look very romantic. Wearing a white dress was a bit nondescript. Just like Bucky's mother said, white couldn't suppress her appearance.

Luna murmured to herself, wondering who inherited this skin.

She had to change into the red dance dress, wearing a pair of black high heels, and went downstairs to find Steve.

Downstairs, Bucky was chatting casually with Steve, when footsteps were heard on the stairs, the two looked up together.

Luna's dark brown hair hangs on her back, and her bright red dance skirt makes her complexion whiter, as if a flame descended from the sky.Bucky felt his limbs tingling as if they were being burned. He opened his mouth, wanting to say two witty words to praise Luna as before, but he didn't say a word.

He thought desperately: The war in the distance, forgive me for bringing a flower home.

Steve said sincerely, "God, I mean, you look good in this."

Luna thanked her with a smile, and when the two were about to leave, Bucky, who had been silent just now, suddenly said, "I'll go too."

Luna had question marks all over her face, but Steve happily agreed without thinking too much.

The meeting place was in a small dance hall. Luna's dancing skills were not very good, but she was more than enough to teach Steve. When Luna led Steve around the dance floor, Bucky was concentrating on the long table of the buffet. Pick and choose to eat there.

Not long after dancing, Luna noticed that Steve was tired, and she thoughtfully said: "I'm a little hungry, let's go eat something."

The two took something to eat and walked to the table where Bucky was feasting and sat down.Luna laughed and complained, "Steve just took the last shrimp away."

Steve also laughed, and he said helplessly, "That's for you."

Luna pretended to show disgust. When the two were arguing, Bucky pushed a plate to Luna's hand. There were three or four peeled shrimps and three or four unpeeled shrimps.

Luna's movements paused, and Bucky said indifferently, "I took too much just now, so I'll give you this one."

Luna let out a deep breath, Bucky is such a person, if he wants to treat someone well, it is also the kind of concern that he can never find a reason to refuse.

It can be said that it is the proficiency of a veteran in love, and it can also be said that it is a gentleman who really cares about girls.

The three of them were eating, when a girl in a black skirt shyly walked up to them and said to Bucky, "Are you going to dance?"

Bucky leaned back slowly, leaned on the back of the chair, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I brought my girlfriend over."

Luna raised her head blankly with a shrimp in her mouth, without the slightest sense of being the heroine of the topic.

The girl's face changed, she obviously didn't expect Bucky, who looked flamboyant, to reject her, she glared at Luna, turned around and walked away angrily.

Steve raised his eyebrows at Bucky, and Bucky sat up straight again and took a sip of his cocktail: "I don't like girls who are too active."

Steve grunted, "It doesn't matter who takes the initiative."

After the three of them chatted for a while, Bucky stood up unexpectedly, with one hand behind his back and the other outstretched, bending down gentlemanly: "Beautiful lady, may I have the honor to dance with you?"

The corners of his lips were raised, and bright light shone in his eyes. The vigor and affection of a young man were wonderfully blended into his temperament. Being stared at by such a pair of eyes, one can't help but feel that one is deeply loved.

Luna stood up and showed her skirt, "Of course."

Bucky's dancing skills were naturally not comparable to Steve's, and the two became the most shining couple on the dance floor almost without getting along.Steve sat at the table and watched the two of them with a hint of understanding in his eyes.

Bucky said in a low voice: "I said that you are suitable for blue too early, you are more suitable for red."

The two were very close, and the airflow when Bucky spoke made her a little itchy. She subconsciously turned her head and said, "I used to wear black more, like that."

She raised her chin to gesture to the girl who just came to invite Bucky, and Bucky smiled with a suppressed voice.

Luna looked at the girl who looked at the two of them frequently, and suddenly remembered a sentence, and subconsciously blurted out: "Most people are really ugly."

After she finished speaking, she regretted it. It was not her intention to talk about other people's looks behind their backs. Unexpectedly, Bucky continued, "It's a pity that they don't know how to be more easygoing with others, so they can make up for it."

Luna looked up at Bucky in surprise, feeling her heart beating faster and faster, Bucky smiled and asked her, "Why, don't I look like someone who can look at Maugham?"

Luna suppressed her abnormal reaction and said, "You look like someone who would tell fairy tales to girls."

Bucky looked into her dark brown eyes and blurted out, "May I compare you to a summer?"
