[American Entertainment] Dance out of my youth

"Yeah, I'm actually sleepy, and he's been yawning too. Wouldn't it be better to go to bed earlier?"

"Little fool, that's what every man in love does. Does he want to see you every day?"

She nodded, "If he hadn't had acting and dance lessons, he'd probably come to see me every day—oh! Is that so?"

"What about you? Do you want to see him every day?"

"I could see him every day if he would talk less. But I can't read well if he's around. Last time in the library—" She broke off suddenly.

"You've grown up, my baby." Juliet reached out and touched her face, "You can try things like falling in love, and you can try many times until you find the one you love, or the one that suits you. That person, those two elements don’t necessarily overlap.”

It's too early to say "love" or anything, Grace thought.Love, most of the time people are trial and error, some people find true love, most people never find it in their whole life.Therefore, "love" is scarce, and "truelove" is rare.

Unfortunately, there's no math for that either.

One day in late August, Grace was leaving the next day.

Tom had dinner at Elliott's, and Grace took him upstairs to her room.

He was a little nervous, "Can you?" He wondered if Mr. Elliott would suddenly come over to have a "good talk" with him later.

"It's not like you haven't been in my room before."

"But at that time... I was still young." He pursed his lips shyly.

"Are you afraid of my father?"

"—A little bit." Of course I was very scared!

"Don't be afraid, Dad won't do anything to you." She took his hand and pushed open the door, "I know what he will say, for example, you can't bully me, you can't make me unhappy, if you Take care of me. Look, isn't Daddy funny?"

He hurriedly said, "Nicky told me that too."

"Don't worry, you are doing very well. Besides, I will take care of myself. I went to school in the United States alone, and it has been 3 years. Parents are always like this. They always think that you are still a child and can't do anything well. .”

He sighed, "It's the same with Nikki, she always thinks I'm still young. I'm already 17 years old!" As he spoke, he straightened his thin chest with a proud face.

She closed the door casually, smiled and kissed him on the face, "Yes, you are 17 years old."

He blushed again, wondering how he could still blush so easily.

He pretended to be calm and looked at her room: because she only returned to China during the Christmas holiday, he hadn't been in her room for several years.Her room is probably similar to other girls’ rooms. It has a carved wooden double bed. She likes a big bed. She said that she can turn over and not be afraid of falling off the bed. She said that she slept in a single bed when she was 7 or 8 years old. There was no guardrail, so I rolled out of bed in the middle of the night, climbed back into bed by myself, and went back to sleep.

There is a dressing table by the bed, a desk by the window, and a set of wardrobes by the wall. The color scheme of the room is pink and light blue, which is obviously Juliet's aesthetic.There are many photos on the wall next to the dressing table, in various sizes, from when I was a child, from this summer, most of them are of her, and some of them have him in them.

"Where are the pictures we took in San Francisco?" He looked around and found none of the Polaroids he'd taken of her.

"It's in the Pasadena apartment." She took out her phone and showed him the photos she took.She hung a circle of photos on the wall of her apartment, decorated with small lights made of copper wire.The photographs formed a spiral pattern on the wall.

"This is—the Fibonacci spiral?" He recalled the term with great difficulty.

"Yes." She was a little surprised that he knew this term, probably because the name Fibonacci was too difficult to pronounce?

Tom is a little proud and feels that he is not bad!

Grace stood by the bed and hesitated for a while before pulling him to sit down by the bed, "Tom—"

"Ok?"

She lowered her head and smiled, "I'm leaving tomorrow, and the next time I see you, I'll have to wait until Christmas."

The boy suddenly frowned in distress, "Yeah, I won't see you until Christmas!"

"Actually, you still see me every day."

"Video, how can it be the same as seeing you with your own eyes?"

"You should have heard of this saying, parting is to meet each other."

He nodded, "But you still have to see you every day, that's called happiness. What about you? Do you also want to see me every day?"

She thought for a while, then nodded, "I want to see you. But soon, when you go to Los Angeles next year, we can meet often."

"Another year!" he sighed. "I wish I could get to next summer sooner. Grace, you're in L.A. . . . don't like other boys—men." That's what worries him the most!Grace said that no one pursued her, and he didn't believe it at all!She is so beautiful, how could it be possible that no one likes her and pursues her, but judging from her temperament, she must not have liked any of them, so in case, if she meets a man who is good enough in the next year, what to do?

Grace smiled, "Are you afraid that I don't like you, so you like someone else?"

He nodded vigorously.

"Well...it is indeed possible, I can't say it is absolutely impossible. Do you want me to promise not to break up with you unilaterally?"

He became nervous: Why is her tone a little strange?

He nodded indiscriminately, "That's right."

"Your logic is wrong. Breakups are basically one-sided. There is no such thing as 'both parties broke up at the same time' in the true sense. When a couple breaks up, someone must have changed their minds or stopped loving them. It's just because of habit or laziness. , and then continue to delay until the two parties can no longer bear it—”

Tom put his hand over her mouth. "I didn't want to hear you say that."

She pressed the back of his hand, took his hand away, and whispered: "Okay, let's not talk."

The palm lines on his palms are clear and rosy.Stretch out your left hand to his right, about the size of your palms.

Then intertwined fingers and held tightly.

He leaned over carefully and kept kissing her right cheek, once, again, again.

His lips are soft, there is a faint fragrance of laundry detergent on his body, and his breath is hot and fiery that belongs to a boy.

"Grace, Grace." He whispered her name, right next to her ear, itchy.

kiss.

Just the touch of lips to lips can bring such a strong sense of pleasure.It's amazing.

Both of them have very little kissing experience, and they haven't improved much during the two-month summer vacation.Clumsy and careful, after kissing for a while, both of them started to feel dizzy.

Her hair was a little longer than it had been in her teens, but still short, thick and straight, dark tan, and he ran his fingers through it, resting on the back of her head.

Her lips are soft and sweet, with a pleasant lemon flavor, clear and sweet.

In this moment, she is his.

Just thinking about it made him shudder.

He would rather this moment never end.

Kissing is wonderful, more beautiful than anything, the indescribable kind of beauty.

Before I knew it, they fell on the bed and hugged each other.

His thin boy's chest is already very strong, and he is no longer the skinny 9-year-old boy.This is very strange, a boy you have known since you were a child, you still remember the way he cried, the little pitiful way he bowed his head and was scolded for doing something wrong, now he has grown up and will hug you tightly, Kiss your big boy.

Does he know what "being in love" is all about?

However, "love" does not seem to need any noun explanation.

I just like you, I just want to be with you.

Play together, laugh together, my happiness will be your happiness, and my sadness will be your sadness.

And they, never sad, only happy.

The next day, London Heathrow Airport.

Grace and Tom kiss goodbye in the airport lobby.

Because Juliet was by the side, Tom didn't dare to kiss for too long, and kissed for less than 1 minute.

Seeing his sullen little expression, Grace thought he would cry on the spot.

Flying long distances is tiring, and even if you can take a nap on the plane, it's still tiring.Her family is not short of money, so she always travels first class, which is much more comfortable than economy class, with comfortable seats that can straighten her legs and can be flattened.

Grace got on the plane, first put on headphones to listen to music, and then took out a computer professional book. After the plane took off, she asked the flight attendant for a blanket and began to take a nap.

She doesn't like talking to people on the plane, these three tricks can basically put an end to any chatting up, and there is nothing wrong all the way until she gets off the plane.She has already decided to continue her studies at Caltech. All she needs to consider is the professional direction and the choice of a mentor. It is also very important to choose a good mentor. There are bad-behaved mentors everywhere. If the mentor is not selected well, it may be wasted. It will be a big loss if you haven't been able to get a degree for several years!

When I go home during the summer vacation, I also want to study with my father the qualifications of these doctoral supervisors at Caltech. One reference point is the other students that this supervisor leads. I need to consult my seniors; another is to read the supervisor’s papers. The school is right for doctoral supervisors. There are requirements for officially published papers, and everything will be fine after getting tenure; then it depends on the technical content of the tutor's papers.It is necessary to combine these items to evaluate the most suitable tutor for her.

Artificial intelligence has been very popular in the past few years, and it will continue to heat up in the future. It is an emerging technology field, and it is also very practical. It also has broad employment prospects in the future, and you can start your own business. In fact, she has decided to register her own after graduation. technology company.David and Juliet said they could give her a start-up capital of $100 million, and in this regard, she has already started at a higher level than at least 60% of technology companies.

Career is the foundation of everything.She is not sensitive to money, but very sensitive.Money is a good thing. If you don’t have money, you can’t do it. The economic status determines the status of the family. If you have a big wallet and don’t panic, it’s right under any circumstances.

Upon arrival at Los Angeles International Airport, drive your car in the parking lot and head back to Pasadena.

On the way, I called Juliet first, and said that I had arrived in Los Angeles, and I would arrive at the apartment in an hour.I called Tom again, said that I was in Los Angeles, and I was going to go to bed early, and I also told him to go to bed early.

There is an 8-hour time difference between Los Angeles and London. It is 10:6 p.m. in Los Angeles and 1:2 a.m. the next day in London. It is more difficult to chat for an hour or two before going to bed.Tom can usually only video call her for a few minutes after waking up in the morning.He is also very busy now, BRIT courses are very intense, and there will be rehearsals and academic performances. As a young actor who is already well-known, he must perform better.

September 9th is Grace's 19th birthday.

Tom still delivered her birthday presents as he did last year.For this birthday gift, he can be said to have put in a lot of effort. Because Grace's family is not short of money, it can be said that there is nothing she wants in life but she can't afford it. Therefore, choosing a gift should come from "sincerity", but "sincerity" and It's a very subjective concept.

She likes a lot of things, and the safest thing is of course to give some small jewelry.It's not jewelry, it's the kind of distinctive little jewelry. She said that the best decoration for a young girl is youth, and jewelry should be considered after the age of 30.

So he went to a place with a lot of Chinese and Chinese descent to find a small shop opened by the Chinese, and bought a double-sided mini mirror with a porcelain cover, which is said to be produced in the best porcelain city in China, and wrapped it in a foam bag. On the third floor to the right, the courier fee is much higher than the selling price of the small mirror.

After receiving the mail package, Grace replaced the small mirror in the makeup bag with a small mirror with a porcelain cover.
