The classmates had an AA dinner, and 70 of the 25 people in the class came, and the class president's speech attracted screams from the audience!
My name is Lin Hao, I am 35 years old Chinese New Year's Eve, and I am the marketing manager. Today, I had an ordinary and extraordinary gathering with my high school classmates. The theme of this reunion was "Class Association AA System", and there were originally 25 students in the class, but in the end, 70 students gathered. Behind this number, there is a confusing and intricate story.
Our class leader was named Chen Xiao, and she was a woman with a lot of leadership, a bit long-winded but always outstanding. She took on the responsibility of organizing the party, and she took care of everything. Recalling that in high school, Chen Xiao was always the most popular figure, whether it was academics or various activities, she performed very well. Although she and I were once confidants, we have drifted apart since graduating from high school.
The meeting took place in a large restaurant in the heart of the city. I pushed the door open, and the excitement was blowing up. The students gathered in twos and threes, chatting, tasting, or taking photos. found Chen Xiao at a glance, she was still full of vitality and busy arranging everything.
Lin Hao, you're here! Chen Xiao shouted excitedly as soon as she saw me, her voice standing out in the noise of the crowd.
I smiled and nodded, and walked over to her. Chen Xiao stood beside a few faces that I was not familiar with, and she introduced them to me as her colleagues, who had also been invited.
While greeting everyone, I secretly observed the scene. It seems that this party is not just a reunion of classmates, but more like a social event. I guess in my heart that maybe this is Chen Xiao's consistent style.
On the table, all kinds of delicacies are put on the table one after another. Everyone sat around and began a cheerful and relaxed conversation. I chose to sit in a relatively quiet corner, next to a classmate I didn't know very well, named Li Qiang. He is now a lawyer, and he appears mature and steady.
Do you remember that memorable athletic day when we were in high school? Li Qiang asked me suddenly.
Of course, I remember that I almost fell down the runway at that time. I replied with a smile.
Li Qiang also smiled, and we started a conversation about our high school days. During the conversation, I found that Li Qiang was not just reminiscing about the past, but also learning more about everyone's current living situation. He seems to be curious about everyone's stories.
As time went on, the atmosphere of the party gradually became lively. Someone proposed to play a game, someone started singing karaoke. I began to realize that this meeting was not as simple as I first thought. Everyone has a unique story to tell, and there are often many unknown secrets hidden in these stories.
Suddenly, I noticed that Chen Xiao stood up, and she picked up the microphone to speak. The whole scene fell silent, and all eyes were on her. Chen Xiao's voice echoed in the cafeteria, she first thanked everyone for coming, and then began to ** the uniqueness of our class.
Maybe you don't know much about our class, but our story is far richer than a regular high school class. Chen Xiao's words aroused a lot of curiosity.
I guessed in my heart what Chen Xiao wanted to share. She continued, "For example, there are a lot of students in our class who started their love story in high school. ”
There was a burst of whispering in the audience, and everyone was obviously attracted by Chen Xiao's words. I saw some of my classmates smiling as if they were reminiscing about that good time.
Chen Xiao continued: "Today, I would like to make special mention of Lin Hao and me. We used to be very good friends in high school, but maybe many of us didn't know that we had a crush on each other. ”
My face flushed in an instant, I didn't expect Chen Xiao to mention that past in front of so many people. I saw that the classmates around me were all looking at me with amazement, as if they were re-examining the relationship between me and Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao didn't stop, she continued: "However, we all lack the courage to confess. Later, the trajectory of life took us in different directions, but I have always believed that Lin Hao is a very important existence in my life. ”
I took a deep breath and was caught off guard. Unexpectedly, this gathering turned into an unexpected confession event.
Suddenly, Li Qiang, who was next to me, stood up, and his voice cut into my thoughts like a sharp blade: "I think each of us should be nostalgic for the past, but more importantly, move towards the future." Now, we all have our own families and careers, don't we? ”
Li Qiang's words brought everyone back to reality. Chen Xiao smiled and nodded, and then gently ended her speech.
In the following days, everyone began to discuss their lives and careers. I found that although so many years have passed, and each of us has experienced different ups and downs, at this moment, we seem to have regained the innocent friendship of the past.
Halfway through the meeting, I noticed an unfamiliar face. He seemed a little cramped, sitting in the corner, not communicating with the others. I walked over and greeted him positively.
Hi, I'm Lin Hao, what's your name? I asked kindly.
My name is Zhang Wei, and I am Chen Xiao's college classmate. He replied with a slight restraint.
I chatted with Zhang Wei for a while and learned that he was actually temporarily invited by Chen Xiao. He works for an Internet company and rarely participates in such gatherings.
Our conversation was interrupted by a sudden commotion, and it turned out to be a few classmates who had started a talent show on a whim. In an instant, the whole restaurant was immersed in laughter.
Towards the end of the party, Chen Xiao stood up again and proposed that everyone sing our high school graduation song together. In that familiar melody, I saw tears glistening in the eyes of many students. This song seems to awaken the memories in our hearts, outlining beautiful fragments about youth, dreams, and first love.
After the chorus, everyone reluctantly said goodbye. Chen Xiao walked up to me, her eyes revealing an indescribable emotion.
Lin Hao, thank you for joining us today. She whispered.
I nodded slightly, mixed feelings surging through me. Chen Xiao's gratitude surprised me, and at the same time brought back memories of those youthful years.
When I left the restaurant, I suddenly remembered Zhang Wei. At the end of the party, he seemed to leave in a hurry. A surge of curiosity came over me, and I couldn't help but feel that there seemed to be some kind of unusual relationship hidden between Zhang Wei and Chen Xiao.
The next day, I looked through the ** and messages of last night's party on social **, and saw that everyone said that it was an unforgettable party, and some comments also mentioned Chen Xiao's confession. After hesitating for a moment, I decided to send a message to Chen Xiao.
Last night's party was fantastic, thank you for the well planned. "I sent a short thank you message.
Chen Xiao quickly replied: "Yes, everyone had a great time." By the way, do you think there's something wrong with Zhang Wei? ”
Chen Xiao actually mentioned Zhang Wei, which surprised me a little. I replied: "Indeed, he looked a little absent-minded yesterday. ”
Chen Xiao's reply made me even more curious: "Actually, Zhang Wei is my ex-boyfriend. We were together in college and then broke up for some reason. Yesterday I invited him temporarily, but I didn't expect him to agree to come. ”
Reading Chen Xiao's information filled me with curiosity about people's lives. It turns out that everyone has some untold stories. These stories may never fully unfold in the light of day, but they are an important part of our unique life story.
A few days later, I ran into Zhang Wei at a café near my company. I decided to take the initiative to say hello, and we found a corner to sit down.
The last meeting was very sudden, and I didn't have time to talk to you more. I opened by saying.
Zhang Wei looked a little more relaxed than on the day of the party, and he smiled: "Yes, I also feel very sudden." Chen Xiao suddenly invited me, and I agreed without thinking about it for a while. ”
Zhang Wei revealed that he works for an Internet company and has a tight pace of life, so he has little time to participate in such gatherings.
Do you still have contact with Chen Xiao? "I asked cautiously.
Zhang Wei fell silent, and after a moment said, "Contact occasionally." In fact, we both had separate lives after the breakup, but we still occasionally reminisce about the past. ”
I felt the faint emotion in Zhang Wei's words, maybe this is everyone's nostalgia for the past.
We talked for a long time until the café started closing. At the time of separation, Zhang Wei suddenly said: "Lin Hao, there is actually something I want to tell you, but please keep it secret." ”
I nodded and motioned for him to continue.
Zhang Wei took a deep breath and said slowly: "Actually, I broke up with Chen Xiao not entirely because of the problems between us. At that time, Chen Xiao's family was in trouble, and she urgently needed support and help. But I was young and vigorous and couldn't understand her situation. ”
Listening to Zhang Wei's confession, I was a little surprised. Chen Xiao had never mentioned anything about this before.
It was only later that I realized my importance in her life, but it was an irreparable moment. "Lin Hao's eyes revealed deep regret.
There was a lot of emotion in me. It turns out that behind everyone's story there are all kinds of regrets and ups and downs.
In the days after saying goodbye, I thought about Lin Hao's words repeatedly. His past with Chen Xiao seems to have revealed some new thoughts about love and life for me.
After some time, I decided to reconnect with Chen Xiao. We met in a peaceful café.
When they met, Chen Xiao looked a little surprised: "Lin Hao, you suddenly came to me, is there anything wrong?" ”
I nodded and asked bluntly: "Chen Xiao, Zhang Wei mentioned that when you broke up, it seems that there were some problems at home. Can you tell me what it is? ”
Chen Xiao's expression suddenly became heavy, she fell into silence, and after a moment, she said slowly: "That was the most difficult period of my life. My father was seriously ill at the time and needed a lot of money. I had to work and take care of him at the same time, and the pressure of life was enormous. ”
Listening to Chen Xiao's narration, a deep sympathy swelled in my heart.
At that time, I was with Zhang Wei, but he may not fully understand my situation. The conflict between us gradually escalated, and we finally chose to break up. Chen Xiao's voice was choked with a hint of choking.
I held Chen Xiao's hand and said affectionately, "I'm really sorry that I couldn't give you enough support by my side before." ”
Chen Xiao smiled and shook his head: "That's already in the past, I've survived." I'm stronger now. ”
We talked for a long time, not only about the past, but also about future plans and dreams.
That night, I walked home alone, and my heart was filled with all kinds of emotions. I realized that this class reunion not only brought me back to old friendships, but also gave me a deeper understanding of life.
Everyone's life is full of choices and transformations. Perhaps, it is these choices and transformations that make up our intricate and unique life story.
When I got home, I decided to write an article about the party. I want to record everyone's story, whether it's happiness, sadness, or regret. These stories are our shared memories and an integral part of our youth.
I sat down in front of my computer and started typing on the keyboard. Words flow bit by bit, recording our laughter, tears, and emotions that are hidden deep in our hearts. I wrote about Chen Xiao's strength and Zhang Wei's regret, Li Qiang's maturity and my confusion. I want to put these emotions into words and make them eternal memories.
As I write, I can't help but recall the faces of the other classmates at the party. Some have become successful businessmen, while others are still struggling to make a living. Everyone's life trajectory is so different, but what we all share is the memory of that youth.
Suddenly, I was reminded of the reunion: several classmates gathered together to share their families and children. Their eyes sparkle with love and pride, which is the most beautiful interpretation of life. Deeply aware that this is a precious experience we all share, I decided to incorporate this fragment into my article.
After writing the part of the meeting, I began to reflect on the bits and pieces of our high school days. Those memories of classes, sports fields, and past relationships are like a warm spring breeze, gently blowing in the depths of my heart. Through these stories, I hope to bring back the youth that has been gone.
stayed up late to write, and finally struck the last stop in the middle of the night. Sitting there, I felt a sense of satisfaction and a deep emotion. This article is not only a memory of the past, but also a beautiful hope for the future.
The next day, I shared the article with my classmates. Soon, comments and likes poured in. The students said that they were deeply touched by the article, and some left messages saying that the work evoked long-lost memories in their hearts.
Chen Xiao also sent a message: "Lin Hao, your article is really well written. I couldn't hold back my tears as I read it. Thank you for making our memories even more precious. ”
I looked at the messages on the screen, and a warmth swelled in my heart. I know that this gathering and this article are not only a remembrance of the past, but also an affirmation of the life of each of us.
Time flies, time flies, maybe we will grow old slowly, but those youthful memories will always retain traces of youth. These memories are like an unfading light, illuminating the depths of our hearts, always reminding us of our dreams and passions.
This reunion is not only a simple reunion, but also a continuation of the precious time we have experienced together. The article I am talking about is the most profound memorial to that good time.
