That day, I didn't ask him anything more...I just hoped I could move on... But who could move on from such a perfect man?
I don't know....I just know I have to...
After that day, me and Jiaxu sorted things... though a part of me felt shattered....
We continued to interact for a few weeks, albeit awkwardly. Jiaxu seemed distant, preoccupied with something on his mind. I tried to ignore the gnawing feeling of loss, but it was always there, lurking in the back of my mind.
One evening, I found myself alone in my house, the silence of the room weighing heavily on me. Jiaxu's face kept popping up in my mind, replaying the same memories over and over.
I needed some time away from the large city life of Chongqing... I loved being a city girl...but sometimes I just need to stay in a small neighborhood, with my parents and a cozy little home, with the air of nostalgia around me wherever I go... instead of living in a large city...alone.
I let my colleagues know about staying in Yihe for a while...and luckily, there were no important work back in Chongqing for me...
I'd meet Jiaxu, rarely indeed...and on purpose... I needed time away from him...to move on...
I thought I no longer had anything for him anymore...but the moment I saw him again, I don't know what happened...I don't know why, when, how I feel for him unknowingly....once again, like the same highschool Mixia...
Yuzhi and I were supposed to meet up today... We decided to meet up in front of our old highschool...the place with the biggest hit of nostalgia the moment I stood infront of it...
Running along hallways, rushing to classes, playing in the ground during recess, head-aching exams, taking long ways just to catch a glimpse of Jia- nvm...
The whole school...did feel different... New students, the building now looked more sophisticated...or u could say, the students were more disciplined...than us in our times...
I sat on the bench outside the school premises, waiting for Yuzhi...
The surroundings were sheltered with trees, blocking the winter sun partially and creating patterns of faint sunlight on the ground... The sky was clear as cotton-like clouds floated in the sky...
