First love is a small thing

[I've collected everything about you, I don't know how long it will be.] 】

On a night when the lights are out, I curl up at the head of the bed with my computer and watch this movie that is said to be very tearful. It was nearly twelve o'clock when the story ended with a sigh from me. There were no tears, just a lot of emotions brewing.

The film begins at the Luo Museum, where the camera skims over the portraits, through the crowd, and freezes on a good-looking man who patiently chats with the two girls about photography. He said that I like to shoot close-ups of people because close-ups allow us to see and look at landscapes that we can't see. The voice was soft, and you can imagine his lazy and good-looking expression.

And then came the monologue of the girl named Xiaoshui, who said that when I think of him, there will be a little heartache, but I am still willing to keep him in my heart. Even today, I don't know where he is or what he's doing, but at least, it's he who lets me know what it is— the little thing about first love.

With what kind of mind quietly watched, the silly girl silently liked a boy named Ah Liang. And what was paid for it was three years of silent change for him. There are not many unforgettable words, not too many sensational pictures.

It's just some plots, little things, pieced together into such a simple and touching story, strung together into the careful thinking of girls of that age.

She would smirk through the glass window as he rode past the bike.

She would catch his back on a warm day in the sun.

She would take a detour through his classroom because the teacher said inspiration.

She would label the Pepsi he had given him a no-drink label.

She would pinch the little button and whisper her thoughts.

She would also secretly dial their house's phone, and when she heard his voice, she would run to the door and shout loudly.

Xiao Shui's nemesis said, I don't think I need to tell him, the world will remember that there is a crazy woman who tried to change herself for three years for love, and the result was that the man did not know.

Yes, a crush of three whole years. In the first year of junior high school, when she was still wearing braces and being called little black sister by the teacher, she fell in love with the high school freshman who was smiling like a xi and always had a camera hanging around his neck. When she grew her long hair, took off her glasses and braces, and changed from an ugly duckling to a beautiful and excellent girl, she still liked him. And he never mentioned it to him.

The young man's heart was simple and transparent, when finally Xiao Shui finally plucked up the courage to confess to Ah Liang on the eve of going to the United States, but learned that Ah Liang was already with another person, and then, sadness instantly crawled into his eyes, and when the panicked water fell into the pool, Xiao Liang turned into heavy sadness. With Ah Liang's concerned eyes, this is doomed to an ending that cannot be together, so that Ah Shui's sentence, that is very good, to be happy forever. It's even more heart-wrenching.

Xiao Shui said, I like Elder Ah Liang, I have liked it for three years, everything I do, I try to change myself, is for you... I went to the dance club, I went to act in dramas, I went to be the conductor of the military band, and I tried to make progress in my studies, all for you, and I now know that the first thing I should have done but didn't do was to tell you that I like you.

You see, all her thoughts were silly and humble, and the smile she had practiced repeatedly in the mirror was shattered by the confirmation of his nod. At that moment, Xiao Shui's injured expression was like a broken glass doll, and the tears in his eyes naturally rendered the sadness, it was undeniable that at that moment, his heart hurt fiercely, but the three years of efforts were finally exchanged for not consummation. Maybe it's true that the younger you are, the easier it is to chase those good things desperately.

In the simple like, there will always be a person who will be willing to humble himself to the dust for him, in this era, there is no Longer Zhang Ailing, but there are still some small young loves, quietly paying for the palpitations.

Who hasn't secretly liked someone like that in that young age? That sad and beautiful teenager turned into a song in our pen, accompanied by our ignorant youth. Perhaps it is this similarity that allows us to see ourselves in Xiao Shui, and the pictures of those who have cried and laughed have made memories reappear, and the figure of the teenager who thought he had forgotten has reappeared, but this time, it is not just sadness.

"In other people's stories, shed your own tears" "In your own tears, you remember your youth." "It's not just sadness, time habitually freezes certain goodness. You don't just remember Xiao Shui's helpless and injured expression at that time, yes, after nine years, she became a famous designer, and she smiled and told this story related to the crush when she was interviewed.

She said, because she was in love with someone.

She said that in fact, he was a senior in high school.

She said the ending was a little sad.

All sorrow will eventually settle in the long river of time, not no longer sad, but mature enough to hide.

In fact, that was not the end, he had already switched from a professional football player to a photographer. Once again on the same stage, she was still helpless in front of him like a little girl. Incoherent because of nervousness. He told her, actually... I've been waiting for that guy to come back from America.

Finally say it, waiting for you to read the album you still have seen, then, the heart that loves you, how can you not understand. Fortunately, such a perfect ending. Fortunately, the last tears are not sad.
