(To Her Letter)
This is the opening content of Chu Mo's collection of short stories.
It was this confession letter that started Chu Mo's literary journey.
I remember back in my junior year of high school, after gym class, the girl with the ponytail sitting next to me suddenly said she was going to the kiosk to buy a bottle of water, and I jokingly said you might as well get me one too.
At that time, I really spoke in a joking manner because I hadn't given her any money.
Unexpectedly, after a while, she actually handed me an ice-cold Coca-Cola from outside the window.
At that moment, I happened to be sitting by the window, and after seeing the cold Coke she handed over, I realized she had bought two bottles, holding one in her hand and extending the other to me through the window.
If I had simply accepted the Coke, I guess I wouldn't now have such a vivid memory.
