-Indus will bloom like a fire in summer only after it has been pregnant for an autumn, dormant for a winter and sleeping for a spring. Maybe at our age, so is love.

How long is a person's shadow in the sun?

One afternoon during the summer vacation of her freshman year, Xiaoya stood under the buttonwood tree at the gate of Xiamen University, waiting for her cousin who was studying in the computer department of Xiamen University. At this moment, the mobile phone rang, and my cousin told Xiaoya that he couldn't come because of something urgent, and his roommate Geng Annan would come to help her repair the computer.

In a short time, a tall, dark-skinned teenager appeared in Xiaoya's field of vision. He looked at Xiaoya hiding in the shade from a distance, and his clear eyes revealed a trace of childish suspicion. This is probably GengGan south, Xiaoya waved to him, and the other party grinned understandably, making up shellfish-like white teeth shining slightly in the sun.

Xiaoya leader Geng Annan. Because he forgot to bring an umbrella and was afraid of being kissed by the sun, Xiaoya walked all the way in the shadow of Geng Annan. His shadow is very long, just blocking the sunshine in Xiaoya.

It was Xiao Mo who opened the door. Geng Annan gave a cry of "Yi" in surprise. He looked at Xiao Mo, then at Xiaoya, and suddenly laughed. Xiaoya is used to the surprise of strangers-Xiao Mo is her twin sister. To help outsiders distinguish, Xiaoya tied up her long hair, while Xiao Mo wore a long shawl.

Geng Annan is a clever and humorous boy. He told jokes while fiddling with Xiaoya's computer, which made Xiaoya laugh. Half an hour later, the computer that was still alive began to run proudly again. Xiaoya looked at Geng Anan with admiration. He's amazing.

Xiao Mo brought Geng Anan a plate of cake and a cup of iced tea. Geng Anan wolfed it down, then wiped her mouth with her hand: "It's delicious. I ate steamed bread for half a month. " "Why?" Xiaoya asked curiously. Geng Annan explained that once I went to the canteen to buy steamed buns, there was something wrong with the card machine. He crossed out 25 yuan at a time, but the girl selling steamed buns couldn't add it back for a long time, so she had to tell him pitifully that I would remember you. Please come to buy steamed buns often in the future until you use up the extra money. Geng Annan saw her sincere appearance and had to agree. The poor guy has been eating steamed stuffed buns for half a month, and the steamed stuffed bun sister still owes him 2.3 yuan. At noon today, he is going to buy two steamed buns. Just entering the canteen hall, he heard someone pointing at the back: "That's him! Eating buns in the cafeteria every day is free! " He was very angry and came hungry.

Part two: south of the city, north of the city

As soon as his voice fell, Xiaoya suddenly laughed, and Xiao Mo, who has always been silent, also pursed his mouth.

After Geng Annan went downstairs, Xiaoya leaned against the windowsill and watched his vivid and tall figure disappear in the shadow of the phoenix tree. Xiaoya's heartstrings were strangely touched. How much she wants the computer at home to break down again.

South of the city, north of the city

The new semester has begun. Xiao Mo left home to study in Jimei in the north of the city. Xiaoya stays at home in the south of the city, and this middle school is separated from Xiaoya's home by a wall.

Xiaoya still remembers the day when she received the letter of admission to high school. Xiao Mo leaned against his chin and asked his mother timidly, "Do I really have to go home once every weekend?" Sunlight flows quietly on her long hair, and her lip line is soft and docile. Mother tugged at her nose: "Yes, I don't cry at school every night." At this time, the father interjected: "Let my sister go outside to exercise, otherwise her courage will get smaller and smaller;" "It's perfect for you to stay at home, or you'll go crazy." Xiaoya glared at her father angrily. If God had ears, he would surely hear Xiaoya's heartfelt complaints.

Now, Xiaoya is finally no longer lonely, because she has found a new partner: Geng Annan. Xiaoya thought, maybe fate is an accidental intersection. She and Geng Anan are not related by blood, but they are familiar with each other because of a summer afternoon. Xiaoya's cousin and Geng Annan often make up some excuses that can be seen at a glance to have dinner at Xiao Ya's house. Xiaoya gradually discovered that Genganan was actually a person who cared about the feelings of others. Seeing that Xiao Mo was always silent and indifferent, he teamed up with Xiaoya to tease her, but he often couldn't grasp the temperature well. Once, even Xiao Mo cried, and he looked at it at a loss. Xiaoya picked up an inflatable pillow and hit him on the head, forbidding him to bully her sister again.

Agreement under the buttonwood tree

In a blink of an eye, it is already the third year of high school, and Xiaoya has set his sights on Xiamen University. Although she yearns for an independent life in a foreign land, she is still willing to stay in this seaside town hidden by phoenix trees-this city has a special atmosphere because of the existence of Geng Annan.

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival this year, my parents went to Jimei to send mooncakes to Xiao Mo, and Xiaoya was alone at home. After taking a shower, in order to make her hair dry quickly, she didn't tie up her long hair, but casually put it over her shoulders. Then the doorbell rang. Through the cat's eye, Xiaoya found that the newcomer was Geng Anan.

Geng Anan was obviously drunk. He looked at Xiaoya again and again, suddenly took her hand and rushed to the buttonwood in front of the building. Geng Anan repeatedly murmured, "What do you think of me?" "Not bad." Xiaoya looked at him strangely.

Geng An 'an suddenly put a pamphlet into Xiaoya's hand and hummed, "Then you can take the Xiamen University exam. I want you to be my girlfriend when you go to college. In fact, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. "

It's late summer night, and the flowering period of the phoenix tree has passed. Clusters of purplish petals are falling in the cool sea breeze, and some even slide across the cheeks. Xiaoya recalled her acquaintance with Geng Anan. Perhaps, from that summer afternoon, Cupid shot an arrow at them. She still remembers the gentle, restrained and hesitant eyes when he looked at her ... these should all be hints, but she was slow to notice.

Xiaoya lowered his head and touched a phoenix flower with the tip of his toe. Then she whispered, "I like you, too." But let's not meet again for the time being. I will come to see you when I am admitted to Xiamen University. "

A mistake arranged by heaven

Since then, this agreement has been lurking in Xiaoya's heart. She became diligent and conscious, and her personality became calm and quiet. At the same time, she stopped growing her hair. Now, Xiaoya prefers the feeling of long hair hanging over her shoulders. It turned out that the crazy silly girl had disappeared, and both parents said that my sister's personality was a bit like my sister's.

No one knows why, except Geng Annan and Xiaoya himself.

The college entrance examination was a little hot in those days, but Xiaoya's heart was cool and peaceful, and he was not nervous at all in the examination room. She feels that she is not taking an exam, but finishing an appointment.

After the college entrance examination, Xiaoya finally had time to read the pamphlet given to her by Geng Annan. To her surprise, it turned out to be a mimeographed collection of Geng Annan's poems. The first poem wrote: "Time is getting older, you and I are gradually forgetting, and the lush phoenix trees are slowly turning yellow." Only a tear was left in the poem last night, and the trace of your skirt when you were dancing in the moonlight and when the tree was dancing. "

This poem is so beautiful that Xiaoya read it silently for several times. It was not until her mother pushed the door and asked her to have dinner that she put the poem into the drawer in a panic.

In the evening, after Xiao Mo fell asleep, Xiaoya quietly turned on the desk lamp and sweetly leafed through the poems written for herself by her favorite boy. Finally, on the last page, Xiaoya saw the words: "The wind has gone, and the crane shadow is no longer coming. Under the bleak buttonwood, there is only hazy moonlight. -Dedicated to Xiao Mo. "

Section 3: Snails run!

As if there were stormy waves coming towards her, Xiaoya quickly turned off the desk lamp and hid in the darkness. The night of Mid-Autumn Festival reappeared in her mind. Yes, she had long hair that night. The drunken Geng An 'an must have mistaken her for a lonely girl. After a while, Xiaoya's tears still came out. It turns out that Geng Anna likes her sister rather than her.

Xiaoya lay in bed with his eyes open for a long time, unable to sleep. At dawn, she finally made a decision-if this is a mistake arranged by God, let me digest it alone.

She got up gently and put the poem under her sister's pillow. Xiao Mo snorted evenly, and his clean and soft face was like a relief. Xiaoya stared for a long time, and suddenly she leaned down and kissed her sister on the forehead.

Grow like a swamp

The results of the college entrance examination came out, and Xiaoya and Xiao Mo did well. There was a small accident when I filled in my volunteer: Xiaoya, who wanted to apply for Xiamen University, filled in Sun Yat-sen University, while Xiao Mo, who yearned for Zhong Da University, insisted on filling in Xiamen University.

Confused by their two daughters, their parents asked them that Xiao Mo just smiled sweetly and shyly, while Xiaoya stretched out with relief: "I hate living in one place, and now I can finally be independent!" -Old Xiaoya seems to be back.

In September, his family and Geng Annan sent Xiaoya to the railway station. The sun is very bright, and Xiaoya didn't bring an umbrella. She walked in the shadow of Geng Annan. His shadow is really long, like an umbrella that can shelter her from the wind and rain. Xiaoya remembered that when she first met him, her nose was sour. Before getting on the bus, Xiaoya hit Geng Annan on the head: "You should be nice to my sister in the future. If you dare to bully him, I will come back to get even with you! " One side blushed, and Geng Annan stretched out his tongue and said, she is willing, as long as you two sisters don't work together to bully me.

Before the train started, my mother suddenly whispered a few words to Xiaoya. Xiaoya blushed at once, but she felt a little like crying.

It turns out that this wise mother has already seen through everything.

As the train drifted away, Xiaoya supported his chin with his hand and watched the familiar scenery fade away from the window. Mom's right. Love and giving up are rivers that one must swim in the process of growing up. At this moment, when Xiaoya looked back on the other side of the past, she found that her vision was suddenly enlightened, and she had a full and rich feeling in her heart.

Platanus acerifolia will bloom like fire in summer only after an autumn gestation, a winter dormancy and a spring deep sleep. Maybe at our age, so is love.

Thought of here, Xiaoya smiled faintly. She believes that there must be more beautiful scenery waiting for her in the distance. Agree 5| Comment
