The first letter Admire

The entrance examinations for junior and senior high school did not separate us, the division of classes into arts and sciences did not separate us, and even his preference for salty food and my preference for sweet food did not separate us

He sized me up for a long time, then shook his head and said, "Short hair suits you better, haha"

We also attended a concert by Jay Chou together, where the man we had passionately adored throughout our youth stood at the center of the stage singing: "The love between seabirds and fish is merely an accident..."

Since we met, he has remembered my birthday every year and prepared gifts for me... a mug with Jordan's portrait, beads brought back from a trip to Mount Tai, a transparent globe made of glass, a complete set of "Harry Potter," a JanSport brand backpack... He has actually always been very kind to me

Until now, whenever I close my eyes, I can clearly see him in my memories. His brows and eyes, his voice, and his hair slightly lifted by the wind. He is wearing loose-fitting sportswear, spinning a basketball on his index finger, sitting on the iron railing and smiling at me

I was filled with sorrow. That day after school, I went to the barber shop alone and spent ten yuan to cut off my long hair. The scissors in the barber's hand made a crisp snipping sound, and I felt that along with my hair, something else was being severed as well

I am well aware of the type of girl he likes: long hair, big eyes, slender and fair-skinned, with eyes that curve when she smiles, and a wardrobe where skirts outnumber pants

Can you tell me what he and I will be like in ten years? Have I become a beautiful girl? Are we still good brothers who can walk arm in arm? Did I confess my feelings to him? ... And what about him ...? ... Could it be that he also has feelings for me?

I do not like to eat green peppers, yet I always serve them to him before meals. He does not like to eat egg yolks, so every time I eat two egg yolks while he eats two egg whites

He patted my shoulder and said, "A friend walks together for a lifetime"

On my eighteenth birthday, I actually wanted to confess my feelings to him

I suddenly thought of you

In summary, he is the complete opposite of me, and it is precisely for this reason that he can so calmly refer to me as a brother.

The prodigal son returns, and unrequited love becomes reality. I always look back and forth, and I also believe that such a day will come. He smiled and reached out his hand to me, saying: "Sorry, have I kept you waiting for a long time?"

At the age of sixteen, he once carried me down a long slope, I held onto his T-shirt and screamed loudly, while the green trees swayed gracefully on both sides of the road, rustling in the sunlight

In fact, when I first met him, my hair was even shorter than it is now, resembling a little hedgehog. I was wearing my cousin's old denim jacket, aimlessly wandering around the playground when I saw him running towards me, smiling and asking, "Hey, do you want to play basketball together?"

In the years of loving someone, we have all become petty, irritable, suffering, sentimental, and anxious about gains and losses... However, when you calm your mind, you will find that in the beginning, when you were first moved, you simply hoped to see his smile

He stood by the riverbank, calling her name loudly, as the wind swept across the water's surface, creating ripples that spread out in circles

This particularity may perhaps become an indelible thorn in his heart. Isn't this how novels are written? After witnessing the splendor and various beauties of the world, he has gone in a great circle only to realize that the person he cherishes the most is right before him

Will you mock me? Will you mock me for never having the courage to confess to him?

My youth began with meeting him and ended with his departure. I am grateful for his companionship, which warmed my entire lonely time

I told him that I don't play very well, and he said: "It's okay, come and play."

If we sit together after class, we will go to the cafeteria for dinner together. My appetite is larger than that of the average girl, and he always jokes about it, asking me if I want to have another chicken leg

I remember one winter when my parents and I had a big argument over something I can't recall. I ran out alone, with only two yuan in coins on me. Trembling, I found a public phone and called him. As soon as he picked up, I started crying. He immediately recognized my voice, asked for my address, and ran out wearing a down jacket.

He introduces me to everyone he meets: "YOYO is my close brother." I nod vigorously beside him and take over his words: "I am the elder brother, he is the younger brother." Then he glares at me, and I stick my tongue out at him.

When you have just fallen in love with someone, you simply wish for their happiness and joy. You hope that their future will be filled with peace, joy, health, and no worries. You hope that when they recall their youth, they will remember me and the brilliant sunshine. Therefore, even if I love him deeply, I ultimately choose to keep this secret for a lifetime.

When I saw him, tall and panting, running up to me, I truly did not need any comfort at all. There was an old man by the roadside selling roasted sweet potatoes. I chose the smallest one, but I still did not have enough money. I asked him for change, but he had come out in a hurry and did not bring any money. In the end, the old man felt sorry for us, being students, and only charged us one yuan and seventy cents

He is a person who values loyalty and friendship. I still remember when we were in elementary school, we would always go to the bookstore together to rent martial arts novels to read, and after finishing them, we could excitedly chat for an entire week. He liked Qiao Feng because he was upright and strong, while I liked Duan Yu because he was charming and handsome

In the midst of the smoke, I recall the taste of popsicles and soda, along with those aimless summer days of youth

My heart, filled with tension and anticipation, suddenly deflated like a punctured ball. I held the microphone, feeling as if I had a lump in my throat, unable to speak or swallow. Thus, I could only remain silent and listen to him finish the entire song.

In all the scenes where things have changed and people are no longer the same, I like you the most

The bride is his university classmate. They have gone through several breakups and reconciliations, and finally, they are together. When he experienced heartbreak, I accompanied him to drink, watch games, and stroll the streets. His joys and sorrows tugged at my heartstrings; I found joy in his happiness and felt pain in his suffering

I eagerly asked him, "Is it good-looking?"

The next day, I saw him, and he indeed smiled at me and said, "This looks better."

He started preparing to celebrate my coming-of-age ceremony half a month in advance, and even gathered people from the old team to take a group photo together. The birthday gift he gave me was a pair of limited edition sneakers, and he said, "You wear size 37, right?"

Reply from my future self ten years later

I suppose this is one of the reasons I like him; he is the kind of person who appears somewhat carefree, yet is incredibly reliable in critical moments. I have always believed that he will grow into a respectable man

In the past, we shared drinks and talked late into the night, yet it was never enough. I have experienced joy; have you? There are many things that I can only give to you in this lifetime, kept secret until eternity. How can others understand it thoroughly... ...

I no longer struggle with whether I can become the person he likes; after all, no matter what, I am special to him.

I never expected that such a friendship would last for so many years

I suddenly started crying again, tears and snot flowing together, and I awkwardly said thank you to him

Then we often played together. At that time, we were still young and had little concept of gender. When he learned that I was a girl, he did not have much of a reaction and continued to walk around with his arm around my shoulder every day

I began to try to dress myself up, making an effort to rein in my carefree nature. I even specifically went to the supermarket to buy facial cleanser and sunscreen. Every day, I constantly reminded myself to pull in my stomach, puff out my chest, and keep my back straight, until one day, he suddenly asked in confusion: "Oh, YOYO, your hair has grown so long!"

However, later on, every time I hear others mention the word "man," the first image that always comes to my mind is Qiao Feng

Is this what it feels like to like someone? To become anxious because of him, to feel utterly inadequate because of him, to fear rejection, to fear not even being able to be ordinary friends, to fear disappointing him

I turned my head to look at him and the picture book; he was staring at the screen, noticed my gaze, and turned his head to smile at me

After finishing the longevity noodles, a large group of us went to the KTV to sing, as is customary

When I first met him, he was dark and thin, with the only advantage being his bright eyes. Then, in the blink of an eye, he grew tall, his brows and eyes relaxed, and when he smiled, he radiated sunshine. Unbeknownst to me, he had already become quite popular. Many girls sent him love letters and made him chocolates on Valentine's Day. At first, I felt down about this, even selfishly wishing that the person I liked was not so outstanding, hoping that I alone in the world knew how wonderful he was.

Because I am the person who understands him the most in this world and with whom he has the greatest rapport

Like most boys and girls, he excels in science more than I do, while I perform better in the humanities than he does. Therefore, during study sessions, he sometimes switches seats with my deskmate, and we quietly discuss our coursework together

I can now spot him at first glance in a crowd, I have begun to ponder the meaning behind each of his glances, I find myself blushing because of his smile, and I can no longer pay attention to other boys.

Everyone urged me to sing, but I am tone-deaf, which is quite embarrassing. He noticed my awkwardness and stepped forward to suggest singing "Best Friend" by Eason Chan, pulling me to sing along with him. He has never sung with a girl before.

Today I attended his wedding. The ceremony was both lively and fulfilling. At the end, I stood below the stage and watched him earnestly ask the bride: "Can I entrust your remaining life to me?"

Can you do it

To my future self in ten years

Why old acquaintances / cannot become old friends in the end

Sender: YOYO, 18 years old, enjoys short hair and basketball

I carefully split the sweet potato in half, giving him one half and keeping one for myself. Then, without thinking much, I took big bites of the sweet potato. He glanced at me and silently handed me his half.
