The afterglow of the setting sun sank into the horizon, and the moon hung high in the sky.
Cars on the one-way street refresh from the farthest point like NPCs. They go in different directions at the intersection, but they all head towards the same place called home.
People who have no home to return to sit on the roadside and smoke. The aroma of food from roadside vendors gathers those who have left home. Everyone plays and makes noises, temporarily forgetting the distress of not being able to return home.
Who in this world doesn’t want to wake up with a roof over their head, the sleeping face of their loved one beside them, and the hopes of their parents and the responsibilities to their partner on their shoulders?
Carrying a heavy burden and moving forward is sometimes not a bad thing, but rather a kind of happiness abstracted on the shoulders.
The street slowly extended forward until it converged into a point. Bai Mu walked in front with four paper bags in his hands.
Nicole walked behind and just followed.
The two of them were silent, but Nicole enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere.
From time to time, one or two lovers would walk past Baimu and Nicole hand in hand.
Or elderly people supporting each other.
A middle-aged man with a playful smile and an aunt with a slightly unhappy look on her face.
These ordinary things seem like a luxury when seen against the backdrop of Bai Mu's back.
Nicole looked at Baimu's back. Although Baimu had a good personality and was a kind person, she could see a trace of endless loneliness hidden in the shadow from Baimu's back.
If this profound loneliness were released, even the universe would be swallowed up.
It was as if he was born lonely, accustomed to loneliness, and reconciled with loneliness, but it was also as if he had not reconciled with loneliness, but was fighting against the terrifying loneliness in a different way.
The attitude of a seeker who will never settle, never compromise, and never give up, is like Sisyphus pushing the stone ball to the top of the mountain again and again, and never giving up no matter how many times the stone ball slides down.
Nicole took a few quick steps forward. She felt that the distance between her and Baimu was getting closer, but their hearts were still far apart.
There seem to be mountains and rivers, and even the entire universe, separating hearts.
She couldn't help but take a few quick steps and barely stood beside Bai Mu.
At this moment, the distance between the two was only as far as a ruler.
Nicole raised her head and looked at Bai Mu's profile, a stern face, an indifferent face, not even her eyes were noticed in her peripheral vision.
She just felt that their hearts were not closer at all.
Even when she and Bai Mu were close together, this terrible sense of distance did not subside at all.
She suddenly said, "Hello."
Bai Mu then looked at her, "What's wrong?"
Nicole asked, "If I move closer to you every day, will we eventually meet?"
Bai Mu said without hesitation: "Of course it will."
Nicole smiled slightly, her pace unconsciously slowed down, and she nodded with satisfaction behind Baimu.
Yes, no matter how far the distance is, as long as we get closer every day, we will meet in the end.
Baimu can be his own lonely Sisyphus, so why can't I, Nicole, be the Sisyphus who approaches Baimu?
Nicole walked behind Baimu with her hands behind her back.
When the street lights came on, the crowds around became sparse.
The shadows of the two were dragged out long, and Nicole slowly walked forward and reached out to Baimu's empty left hand.
Hold it gently.
At this moment, her heart was very calm, without a trace of distracting thoughts, she just wanted to hold this hand.
Then move forward.
Bai Mu didn't say anything, but just felt the cool temperature of the little hand in his palm and walked forward silently.
A slight blush crossed his face.
This touch of red is like the afterglow of the setting sun. If you don’t wait to see it, you will most likely miss it.
But what does it matter if you miss it?
Sunsets happen every day. The most beautiful sunset is not the one you wait for, but the stunning view you discover inadvertently at a glance.
Nicole didn't notice. She just held that hand and walked forward, gradually speeding up her pace until she came to Baimu's side.
The dictionary definition of language is: an important tool for expressing emotions and conveying ideas.
But at this moment, the street light just happened to shine on the two of them, the night breeze blew on their faces, there were thousands of lights around them, and the sound of cicadas was in their ears.
Language has completely lost its meaning of existence.
There are no words or phrases that can express what the two people are thinking or even feeling at this moment.
(End of half episode)
"Your hands are so cold, is it kidney deficiency?"
Bai Mu suddenly asked.
Nicole's mouth twitched. The atmosphere that had been brewing with great effort! You just destroyed it!
Ahhhh!
It's really maddening!
Nicole quickly pulled her hand away from Bai Mu's palm and retorted loudly: "How is it possible? How could I have kidney deficiency?"
Bai Mu glanced at her and said, "But the foot massager that day also said that you have kidney deficiency."
Nicole was so angry that she punched Baimu on the butt.
"Don't bring up things that are not related to the topic!"
"Besides, it's just a masseur, not a doctor. What kind of diagnosis can it make?"
After saying that, Nicole rolled her eyes at Bai Mu.
This guy.
After walking a few more steps, Bai Mu suddenly stopped and looked at Nicole and said, "Speaking of which, we obviously have a car, why do we have to walk back?"
Nicole: “…”
"What do you care about me! I'm so angry, let's go, go back and drive."
"oh."
Bai Mu lifted the paper bag in his hand, turned around and ran towards the car.
Nicole followed behind, "Hey, don't run so fast!"
