Because I am feeling a bit down

"Dark Night Raccoon", a fox in the dark night? What a strange nickname, all three verification messages on WeChat are from him. I have very few friends on WeChat, all of whom I know, and I see no need to add strangers, so with a press of my thumb, I declined

Suddenly, I feel a sense of shared suffering, realizing that there are stories in this world that are so similar to mine, with equally sorrowful individuals

Today the teacher rearranged the seating, and I unexpectedly found myself sitting in the row behind him. Although we are not at the same table, being able to secretly observe him from behind brings me a sense of joy

Shall we chat for a while? Those who wander online at midnight are all lonely souls... Moreover, finding you on WeChat is fate!

"Dark Night Raccoon" sent an image of apology and tears, and I asked him why he was apologizing

I apologize for waking you due to my stubbornness

After posting today's blog, I quietly browsed He Xubei's Weibo for a while. He hasn't updated in three days. Habitually, I opened his photo album and smiled foolishly at his pictures. Even though there is no possibility, I am very content just to silently follow him

Indeed, how else would I have found you nearby? I thought you were asleep and not replying to me. Why are you still awake?

The phone screen lit up again, still displaying the "Dark Night Raccoon." I was somewhat moved by his persistence, perhaps also because he claimed to be a lonely person himself; this time, I did not refuse him again

Suddenly, I felt that this person was not so annoying after all, so I continued to ask him why he sent crying images again

Ding dong, ding dong

The raccoon of the dark night said that the reason for his bad mood was because he had quarreled with his father. It turns out that his mother passed away when he was very young, and his hot-tempered father only knew how to educate him through physical punishment. The only way for the father and son to communicate was through loud arguments.

Wasn't it you who woke me up? Is it really necessary to send so many verifications just to add a friend? Can't I reply to you tomorrow? I am somewhat annoyed; this person is either foolish or just plain silly

Uh, I apologize, I am just feeling down and wanted to talk to someone

I did not expect this person to be so stubborn, and they sent another verification message

Hello, why reject a sincere heart? Would you like to be friends?

When this sound rang for the third time, I could no longer bear it and quickly grabbed my phone to input the password and unlock it. Who is this person! ... It better be something important, otherwise ...

Just when I was in a daze thinking I saw the real He Xubei, my phone vibrated. I felt a bit resentful that it interrupted me, rubbed my eyes, glanced at it, and continued scrolling through Weibo

So you are also from Jincheng? I checked his information, and the location he posted on his Moments is not far from me

I became an emotional garbage can for a stranger, quietly listening to him pour out his feelings, until my upper eyelids drooped over my lower eyelids, and I fell into a deep sleep

Friend? These two familiar yet unfamiliar characters seem like a luxury to me. In my childhood, my only playmate was the boy next door, who I called Sunshine Brother, because we always liked to fight. The boys mocked me as a tomboy, and the girls did not want to be with me. I did not have many interactions at school either; Jingyan was my only friend. Now, however, a stranger has appeared, claiming to want to be my friend, and I cannot help but be cautiously suspicious.

"Don't joke around, I'm not Little Red Riding Hood from a fairy tale, I don't have time to play with you!" I replied dismissively as I got up and put on a coat. I opened the door to another bedroom, which was empty. The hour hand pointed to 11:00, and my father had not yet returned; it seemed that the card game today had been quite intense.

I do not particularly enjoy going online, although I have QQ, WeChat, and the like. Most of my friends there are classmates and friends; I do not have the habit of actively adding strangers. This "Dark Night Raccoon" is an exception.
