Meeting Again Might Be Easy
Translated from Chinese by Claude. Read the original
These past few days I’ve been sorting through my old connections, trying to find friends I’d lost touch with and their contact info.
Today on QQ I ran into a girl, and I couldn’t remember how we’d met before. We got talking and it turned out we’re from the same place. She’s an elementary school classmate of my childhood best friend. Okay, mind blown.
Meeting again might be easy, and at the same time it isn’t.
Last night I was chatting with an elementary school classmate about our elementary school days, and then I searched for our old homeroom teacher’s name, and I actually found her. At noon the next day I called that school and got through to the principal’s office. I asked, “Does Teacher XX still work at this school?” “She does.” “I’m her former student.” “Do you have her contact information?” “Yes, her office number is XXXXXX, and her cell is XXXXXXX.”
After that I got in touch with my elementary school homeroom teacher. After some small talk, I got her QQ, and I’m planning to hold an elementary school reunion this summer break. I don’t know if it’ll actually happen.
Meeting again is easy. In all my years I’ve rarely left anyone my contact info, and people don’t contact me either, so I’ve lost a lot of connections that way.
Meeting again is easy. If you want to see someone, it really is easy. Unless you don’t want to.
