the sky was as gloomy as the mood
in the classroom.

her eyes still stayed planted on him.
eventually their eyes locked,
and she could see it.

she knew him better than anyone.
regret was written all over his face.

he quickly glanced away but her eyes stayed locked.

the class seemed to have passed that way.
she couldn't bear the silence anymore.

she quickly approached him,
but he kept walking with shame.

"huang renjun! stop!"

he halted and the other students glanced
with a confused look.

he didn't turn his head but he didn't have to.
she showed up in front of him.

he moved to the side to keep walking
and she trailed behind.

"renjun! listen to me okay?"

renjun could only keep walking,
but he listened.

"i take it back, so please, let's just go back to how it was."

she knew better than anyone that words were permanent, but what else could she do?

words couldn't be taken back that easily,
what about actions?

could she undo what she had done?
