This night was destined to be restless. Everyone had their own worries. It was not until the lights-out bell rang several times that they reluctantly climbed back into their beds.
Yan Cuo stared at the ceiling. This small dormitory was where they had spent three years. In those three years, whether it was laughter or tears, they had experienced a lot and grown a lot.
When the time really came to say goodbye, memories of the past came flooding back. They were reluctant and sad, but in the end they still had to run to a farther place and pursue a better future.
Yan Cuo glanced at Su He's bed and saw that she was already fast asleep. He felt relieved and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next day was the last day of exams, which was both a relief and a letting go for them. No matter how many bad memories there were in the past, with graduation and separation, it was time to let go.
It was still dark in the morning and several girls in the dormitory had gotten up early. Lu Xiaonan was packing her suitcase with some tears still on her face. Yan Cuo glanced at her casually, was startled, and then walked towards her.
"What's wrong with you?" Yan Cuo's voice was filled with worry. Lu Xiaonan was usually a loud and noisy tomboy and it was rare to see her cry, but at this moment she was so sad that she couldn't control herself.
Lu Xiaonan glanced at her, tears streaming down her face. Her voice was choked with sobs. "I've liked him for more than two years, but I didn't even dare to confess. I knew he wouldn't like me like this. But now that I'm leaving this school, we might never see each other again."
He was the first boy I liked, but I didn't even dare to say a word to him. I felt so inferior in front of him, like a tiny speck of dust.
The other people in the dormitory were attracted by her crying and tried to comfort her, "There are many beautiful girls in the world. When you go to college, there will be many good boys waiting for you to choose. The boys you like at your age now may just be a whim. Don't take it seriously."
Lu Xiaonan wiped away her tears and said, "But I have liked him for more than two years. I just like him, but he never even looks at me."
Yan Cuo was silent for a while, and then he spoke, "You like Xu Lin?"
Lu Xiaonan looked at her in surprise, then nodded, "I've liked him since the first day he came to school, but he never really looked at me."
Yan Cuo said nothing more, stood up and walked out, with an unclear expression on his face.
Su He followed her out and hooked his arm around her shoulders. "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
"It's okay. I just didn't expect Xu Lin to have so many romantic relationships. But he has a very cold personality. He only hurts them and doesn't respond."
Su He sighed, "Unrequited love itself is a very risky investment. If that person just happens to like her, it's fine. But if it's always one-sided, then the loss outweighs the gain."
Yan Cuo nodded, "Well, I feel a little sorry for Lu Xiaonan. She is a very good girl and deserves to be loved by a very good person."
"As for love, who can predict it for sure? Maybe she will meet a very good boy in the future and they will like each other. This would be the best ending." Su He was rarely serious and spoke in a serious tone.
"Well, I hope so."
When they returned to the dormitory, Lu Xiaonan had already adjusted her mood. Several girls packed up their things and prepared to go to the cafeteria.
Everyone was exceptionally silent today, and those who were usually lively were no longer chattering and laughing. After today, they would really leave, and it might be a long time before they would see each other again.
With heavy hearts, they walked into their respective examination rooms. No matter what, they had to complete the final exam and end it perfectly, leaving their most beautiful appearance in their youth.
When the last exam was over, they all quickly returned to the classroom and saw that the head teacher was already waiting there.
The middle-aged man looked at them with a smile on his face, looking at them as if they were his own children. "Students, listen to me for a few words, and then you will have a holiday."
The students all sat in their seats and listened to the man above them say, "Classmates, from today on, you will officially graduate and will go to college to become a college student and an adult. You must learn to take responsibility, be responsible for yourself and for others.
I can only accompany you here. You have to walk the rest of the way on your own. I will always remember that I have such lovely students like you. If you miss me, you can come and see me.
Finally, everyone should keep working hard."
The moment the head teacher finished speaking, the class was filled with crying, and several girls were crying so hard that they were out of breath.
"We can't bear to leave you, teacher. I don't want to graduate."
"Teacher, can we start over? I want to go to high school again. I don't want to grow up. I don't want to leave here."
The class was filled with the students’ reluctant words, their voices choked with sobs.
The head teacher cleared his throat and comforted them, "I can only accompany you here. You must work hard. The rest of your life depends on you to live a wonderful life. You will always be my pride.
Okay, go back to your dorm and pack your things now. Your parents are waiting for you. Today is a happy day, so wait for your acceptance letters at home. I hope you can all get into your dream school and realize your dreams.
I hope you have a bright future and a promising future.”
They all left the classroom with tears in their eyes, but the head teacher still didn't leave. He stood in the empty classroom with mixed emotions. He had seen off batch after batch of students, and each farewell was so touching, but he could do nothing about it.
Their future should be soaring in the vast sky. This is just a stopover for them and they will leave eventually. I just hope they don’t forget me.
Yan Cuo and Su He returned to the dormitory to pack their things. At this time, many parents had already come in. They helped their children pack their things and then left quickly.
Lu Xiaonan's mother also came. She was a middle-aged woman who was very impetuous. She looked decisive and was very quick when packing up.
Lu Xiaonan packed up her things quickly. Her mother urged her to leave. She followed her mother and kept looking back, feeling reluctant to leave.
Su He and Yan Cuo were still standing there looking at her, when they suddenly saw her running back in and hugging them, "I'm leaving now. Let's hang out together when we have time. We'll always be good friends."
They all nodded, "Okay, we will always be friends."
Lu Xiaonan's eyes were red all the time, and she was finally pulled away by her mother.
