The words fell, but there was no response, only the sound of children playing in the park could be heard.
Ke Mingye hung his head low, not daring to look at the person beside him, only lifting his eyes to see a boy walking up to a crying girl on the sandy ground, taking her hand.
The two small figures walked out of the park, fading into the afterglow.
Bai Zini lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, gently turning her cheek, tears silently sliding down her face.
She opened her mouth slightly: "Back then, if only you had opened the door, I always thought you'd come to find me, I waited for you outside the door for a very long time...so long."
"But I didn't."
"I was so disappointed."
"I know."
"Really disappointed, so disappointed."
"I know."
"I even thought, maybe it's better to act as if you didn't exist from now on."
"Okay."
"But I still waited for you outside for a very long time."
"I'm sorry."
"I've forgiven you."
"Really?"
