They should have a fate, college classmates, after graduation and enter the same unit together as colleagues. Classmates at that time, colleagues today, have been married one after another, but the relationship between her and him has not gone further, nor has it taken a step back.
She was the kind of girl who was passionate and romantic, and there were many people who pursued her, including their personable department manager. But she likes to go out with him on weekends to go out and chat, when she is in a bad mood, she will borrow his shoulder to cry in the dark, and the two travel together during the long vacation, happy like a child.
But that's about it, there's no more intimate action between them. He was just an honest and generous ordinary man, with an average family background, average looks, and average salary, although he had been with her for so many years, but in his heart, he always felt that her beautiful and outstanding girl would not be the one he wanted.
On that day, several students from the university traveled to their city and invited each other to get together. Classmates are married, the man has a wife, the woman carries a husband, only the two of them are still alone, everyone jokes with them, asking when to drink their happy wine. She smiled at him, her eyes shining brightly, he smiled faintly, turned back to greet the waiter: "Add another sweet and sour fish flower, put more sugar and less vinegar, add coriander." "Sweet and sour fish flowers, that is her favorite dish, she is a southerner, has always liked to eat sweet, and there is a habit, no matter what the dish, to add parsley."

He watched her make a series of strange movements, wondering, and when he wanted to ask her, she had already turned and ran upstairs. "What a little girl," he shook his head and smiled.
They were still not salty, and soon after, the company opened a branch in a foreign country, and he was sent to be the manager of the branch. Time was tight, and he hurried to say goodbye to her, and she smiled faintly, but there was a sadness in her eyes that could not be concealed.
He did a great job at the branch. At first, I still contacted her, but gradually I broke off. Later, he talked about girlfriends, got married, and had children. Everything is on track.
That day, after eating, he casually picked up the magazine that his wife bought, flipped through it, and suddenly found that there was a column called "Love Sign Language", which he opened strangely, and it was clearly painted on it, it was a series of actions, he froze, those strange movements, exactly the same as the actions she had made that year. The sign next to it is clear: "Wait until you say you love me!" ”
He was half speechless...
