If time can go back two hours ago, Lisa would rather die than follow a group of high school students to the mountain.
She uses both her hands to support her knees, and heavily gasp for a few breaths. On all four sides there are still pieces of white-capped snow. Heat excluding from her breaths would float upward and turn into white smokes. Then they would quickly dissipate in the cold winds.
Dammit ah!!
She could not help but swore in her heart. What is the reason a bunch of little devils whose energy and enthusiasm pull her along to the mountains would not have a single silhouette be seen when she turns around.
She was a little discouraged and raised her head to look at the sky above. The sky is not bright and beautiful as it has been when she just climbed up the mountain. Seemingly one can also see the faint, distant, dark clouds.
Jung Lisa's little heart trembled. Perhaps when laboriously arrive at Hokkaido for vacation, one can also lose one's small life here?
She carefully thought for a moment. She cannot remember when she lost the group of high school students and became separated from them. She has always followed behind the group and listened to them talk about daily stuff in Japanese the entire journey. When her mind recovered, there is only her alone in this vast world.
Even the footprints of those people were not willing to remain for her.
Was it due her being so enthrall that she went a separate path? She introspects herself. Secretly, she is glad that this was a small mountain. The probability of her finding her way back to the hotel is very large.
... Hope.
She did not give up the idea and took out her phone to look - still no signal. She leaned against the side of the trunk and pulled out a thermos from the side pocket of a backpack. She took a sip of warm water.
Her physical strength has been consumed a lot, thus she did not dare to stay for long on the mountain. As she felt her body getting warmer, she stuffed the thermos back, and then heard an approaching sound of soft footsteps nearby.
Lisa's brows move, and she immediately looks in the direction the sound is coming from.
A man wearing a climbing outfit just came out from the small nearby bushes. His movement was not small and caused the snow on the leaves to fall down.
The man was tall. His height is probably around 1.85 meters or more. On his jet-black hair there seems to be some scraps of snow remaining. One does not know when the snow fell off. It seems that he saw her and thus stopped in front of the trees.
At the moment when her eyes faced his eyes, Lisa's heart shook.
No good, this man here is a little bit handsome.
It was merely a starry-eyed infatuation she had for only a second. After that, like seizing a straw of rescue, she quickly walked over the man and asked in Japanese: "Hello, are you climbing the mountain as well?"
The man did not immediately answer. He glances at her, nodded, and said: "En, I am planning to go down the mountain [leave mountain]."
His bass voice is easy to hear, and his Japanese pronunciation is also very elegant. It has caused Lisa, who has a Japanese degree N1 with high marks, to not want to speak Japanese out of embarrassment after the man spoke.
But the most important matter is that he said he was going down the mountain!
Lisa was touched to the point crying tears of joy (idiom). She looked at the man in front of her with the most happiest expression: "Oh what a coincidence, I am also getting ready to go down the mountain. Perhaps we can go together?"
