Even five minutes can feel long for strangers, so the nurse idly flipped through a fashion magazine on the sofa.
Mei Yu watched her, feeling she seemed simple and easy to talk to. After five minutes, Mei Yu opened her mouth to ask the nurse, “Excuse me, do you know the young man who brought me here? Has the hospital made any record about him?”
Mei Yu was constantly remembering that young man, even dreaming about him, feeling they were so familiar, yet unable to recall anything…
Perhaps due to the effects of the medication, or perhaps because Mei Yu was tired, she lay in bed with her eyes half-closed, recalling and remembering every scene of her encounters with that handsome man.
The first time they met was in a dark passageway between the school cafeteria and the teaching building. They made eye contact in the darkness. He seemed cold, with a gaze that would make people feel chilled to the bone, yet there was an irresistible mysterious allure that made her want to look at him again and again.
The second meeting was more intense – the day he hit her with his car. She was knocked to the ground, dizzy and disoriented, but could still feel someone embracing her, feeling his warm chest and strong arms supporting her. His subtle body fragrance still stirred every fiber of her being, even as she was nearly unconscious.
Despite being nearly half-dead from the collision, she could still vaguely sense how cool this handsome man was.
The last time she saw him was in the hospital room just after she woke up. He claimed to be swatting a fly near her pillow, but who knows what he was really doing. What a bad guy… and then he just left her alone. So mean, so terrible… but still…
In a daze, Mei Yu seemed to have fallen asleep, mumbling words that were indistinguishable. Yet she felt she was still awake, with a blurry sensation that someone was watching her. Mei Yu opened her eyes and suddenly sat up.
Indeed, there were people watching her – more than one. Mei Yu screamed in shock, alertly moving closer to the head of the bed. “Who are you? What do you want?”
