Chapter 7
At three in the morning, the room fell silent.
The sound of water in the bathroom rang out.
Maeve pulled back the curtain and walked out with her legs, which had lost consciousness.
She stepped over the scattered broken clothes, placed the memory card on the table, and opened the
door.
After a soft sound, a deep voice cfrom the bathroom.
“What sound? Is someone there?”
“How is it possible for someone to be here so late at night? Never mind, let's try again.”
| slightly pushed open the bathroom door, then tightly closed it again.
Maeve turned around and looked at her reflection in the glass, then she turned back and closed the
door.
The streets in the early morning were empty, with no one and no cars.
She wandered aimlessly alone, with a buzzing sound in her ears, but her mind was completely
blank.
| don’t know how long we had been walking, but it was already dawn.
Maeve lifted her bruised eyes and realized, to her surprise, that she had unknowingly returned to her high school

The campus at seven o'clock was very quiet. She walked alone on the school path, looking around somewhat
absentmindedly.
Sdusty memories loosened slowly.
Donte pulled her to run around the 800-meter track of the playground, decorated the small hall with roses for
her birthday, and confessed his love to her in front of the whole school at the flag-raising platform.
Everything was just like in the past, but Maeve, who was in the midst of it all, felt completely
different.

walked to the teaching building and ran into the headmaster who happened to be going to work.
Because of Donte’s previous high-profile pursuit, almost all the teachers recognized her, and the principal smiled
and greeted her.

“It’s been a long tsince | last cback, so | thought I'd drop by and visit the teachers.”
The two people walked and talked, recalling many past events and feeling a thousand emotions.
Before parting, the director seemed to remember something and took out a yellowed diary from the office
caband handed it over.
“This is the discipline check | used to do during our study sessions. | took it from Donte’s hands. Since your good
times are approaching, I'll give it back to you.”
Maeve hesitated for a moment, then took it and bowed to the teacher.
On the way back, she opened her diary and saw Donte’s flamboyant handwriting.
“On March 12th, Maeve didn’t agree with me, but she smiled attoday, and I felt like | had a chance.”
“On July 1st, the summer vacation was too long. | waited downstairs at Maeve’s house for four hours before |

“On November 23rd, someone confessed to Maeve today, and it madeso angry. | ended up beating him up
and got reprimanded.”
“On December 21st, today was my seventeenth birthday. Seventeen-year-old Donte’s only wish was to be with
sixteen-year-old Maeve, forever, never to be apart.”
Every page had the sname, writing down the thoughts of the youth.
As she watched, Maeve’s nose suddenly felt sour, and tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.
Drop by drop, it is a tribute to the past.
Itis also a farewell.
When the car stopped at the entrance of the villa, Maeve had already calmed down her chaotic
emotions.
She closed her diary, opened the car door, and cface to face with Donte, who had just returned.
Looking at the crimson hickey on his neck, she remembered what had happened during the night and averted
her gaze.

Donte noticed that she seemed to have cried, furrowed his brow, and was just about to discreetly
ask her about it.
Phoebe, nestled in his arms, also saw her red eyes and couldn't help but giggle.

Upon hearing her seemingly suggestive tone, Donte’s heart skipped a beat.
“What are you satisfied with?”
“The birthday photos from the first half of the night, what else could they be, as for the second half of the
night...”
Watching her unfiltered mouth, Donte’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly covered her mouth.
She, however, cast a flirtatious glance at him and gently took hold of his fingers.
Watching the two people openly flirting, Maeve had becimmune and turned around to walk
home.
As she passed by the trash bin, she casually threw the diary into it.
Those youthful years, filled with love and sincerity, were completely buried.
