That day, I received a call from my ex-wife, Lin Yue, who said that she had been hospitalized in a car accident and hoped that I could go and see her. When I got the call, I was a little caught off guard because we had been divorced for several years and our respective life trajectories had long since been distant. However, the fragility and helplessness in her voice made it impossible for me to ignore.
To be honest, I wasn't too mentally prepared for this sudden meeting. Lin Yue, the woman who once spent the storm with me, is now lying on a hospital bed, waiting for my visit. I hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go to the hospital, after all, the old love was still there, and I couldn't turn a blind eye.
When I walked into the ward, I saw Lin Yue lying there, her face pale, and I couldn't help but feel a complicated emotion in my heart. A flash of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw me, but it was quickly replaced by joy. We looked at each other and were speechless for a moment.
"Are you alright?" I asked with concern as I walked over to the bed.
"I'm fine, but I have a broken right leg and need to be hospitalized for a few days. Lin Yue replied with a smile, but I could see the tiredness and weakness in her eyes.
I sighed softly and sat down on the edge of the bed. We started chatting and reminiscing about the times we spent together. Although we are divorced, those fond memories are as vivid as yesterday. We talked about our dreams, anecdotes, and the days when we had a falling out because of a quarrel. Laughter and tears are intertwined, making us feel as if we have returned to that innocent era.
However, when the conversation gradually turned to reality, the atmosphere became a little heavy. Lin Yue told me that she has not had a good time over the years, her work has not been smooth, and her life is full of twists and turns. Her words revealed a kind of helplessness and exhaustion, which made me feel a little distressed.
I comforted her and told her to be strong and to believe that she could get through it. She also nodded, indicating that she would try to face life. We talked for a long time, and it wasn't until night fell that I reluctantly left the hospital.
In the days that followed, I often visited Lin Yue in the hospital. Our relationship has also become closer and more harmonious. We go for walks together, watch movies together, and share moments in life together. I found that even though we are divorced, there is still a tacit understanding and understanding between us. We seem to have returned to the era of love, but without the passion and impulse we had at the beginning.
However, as Lin Yue's body gradually recovered, she began to mention the idea of remarriage. This caught me off guard, after all, I already had a new life and a new partner. I told her that we needed time to think about it and that we couldn't make a decision lightly.
Lin Yue seemed to understand my thoughts, and she didn't mention the matter of remarriage again. Our relationship has also become more natural and relaxed. We began to get along like friends, sharing each other's lives and insights.
One day, sunlight poured into the patient room through the window, bringing a touch of warmth to this slightly oppressive space. Lin Yue leaned against the head of the bed, holding an old photo album in her hand, her eyes gently resting on the yellowed photos. I walked up to her, sat down, and asked curiously what she was looking at.
She looked up with a smile and handed me the album: "Look at these, we took them before." ”
I took the album and flipped through it page by page. Those familiar scenes and smiling faces seemed to travel through time and space, and made me return to that young and beautiful era again. The mountains we climbed together, the sunrises we watched, the roadside stalls we ate...... Every photo carries our memories and laughter.
"Time flies, and we're all so old in a blink of an eye. Lin Yue sighed.
I nodded, a mixed emotion welling up in my heart. Yes, time is always so merciless, it takes away our youth, and it also changes our appearance. But no matter what, those good memories will remain in our hearts forever.
"Actually, I'm thankful for that time. Lin Yue said suddenly, "Although we have come to this point now, those days are really beautiful. ”
I took her hand and said softly, "Me too, that time was the most precious treasure of my life. ”
We looked at each other and smiled, as if all the distractions and contradictions had disappeared at this moment. We understand that although the trajectories of each other's lives are different, the feelings and memories of the past cannot be erased.
In the days that followed, we continued to get along like friends. We had a lot of fun together and shared a lot of life together. I found that the feeling of being with Lin Yue was still comfortable and natural, as if we had never been apart.
However, life is always full of uncertainties. Just when I thought we would always be friends, Lin Yue suddenly told me that she was about to leave the city and start a new life in a distant place.
The news surprised me a little, but I also understood her decision. After all, everyone has the right to pursue their dreams and happiness. I wish her the best of luck and fulfillment in a new place.
On the day Lin Yue left, I went to the hospital to see her off. We stood at the door of the hospital, staring at each other, as if we wanted to imprint each other's appearance in our minds.
"Thank you for your company these days. Lin Yue smiled and said, "I will always cherish the friendship and memories between us." ”
I nodded and held her hand tightly: "You too, whenever and wherever I am, I will remember the good times we once had." ”
Then we hugged each other and turned away. I watched Lin Yue's back gradually drift away, and my heart was full of emotion and reluctance. But I know that this is her choice and her new life.
Now, Lin Yue has been away from the city for a long time. The connection between us has gradually diminished, but the feelings and memories of the past are still deeply embedded in my heart. Whenever I think of the time I spent together in the hospital, I feel an inexplicable warmth and emotion.
