Chapter 1883: Like a Spell
Beneath the basketball hoop stood a girl in a pristine white dress, her long, jet-ck hair flowing in
the wind. She held a bottle of mineral water, gazing quietly at Spencer, waiting for him. Every time
she appeared, Spencer felt a sense of happiness wash over him.
He tossed the ball to a friend and hurried over to her, asking with a smile, "Summer, I thought you
weren''ting?" His heart was brimming with joy. The girl handed him the water bottle, saying, "I
finished my homework, so I came to see you." She nced at the envious ssmates led by the
ss monitor, all very excited.
Without saying a word, she just smiled at him and said, "You continue." Then she turned and
walked towards the ssroom. Spencer gazed at her retreating figure for a long time, but at that
moment, the group of girls surrounded him.
"Spencer, can I borrow your English notes?"
"Spencer, let''s sing a song together for Friday''s ss activity?"
Amidst the bustling voices, Summer distinctly heard the sharp voice of the ss monitor, Huang
Yan, intentionally raising her tone. A slight pang pricked Summer''s heart as she stopped walking
and looked back.
She saw Huang Yan''s face close to Spencer''s, wiping away his sweat. Summer''s expression
remained calm as she quickly averted her gaze and continued towards the ssroom to study for
the uing test.
In a dream, Spencer crossed over the short Huang Yan and continued to watch that figure
disappear, a sense of loss creeping up.
Next, a never-ending argument yed out in the dream.
"Spencer, your letter." After entering the ssroom, Summer casually ced a letter on his desk,
asking, "Which sister sent this one?"
Without opening the envelope, he ced the letter in the drawer, not opening it in her presence. He
answered her question, "An old friend from middle school." Summer seemed to have a thousand
words to say but ended up saying nothing.
As she prepared to leave, he stood up and grabbed her arm. "Summer, why don''t you trust me?
What''s there to be angry about? She''s just a friend!"
She halted, looking at him with a faint gaze. "I trust you, so I''m not angry."
"What do you trust? Is this not being angry to you?"
"What should my attitude be then? I''m your girlfriend. Should I reply to her and be friends with
her?"
"Summer, you''re being unreasonable."
"...," the girl remained silent, simply because she loved him.
In the dream, his mood was very sour, and shecked patience, pulling away from his grasp and
walking away. They ended up in a cold war for several days, with no one initiating an exnation or
mentioning a breakup.
Then Spencer woke abruptly from his sleep, with the bedroom''s sleep light casting a hazy glow on
his face. The girl''s familiar face lingered in his mind, her voice echoing in his ears.
In the silence of the night, he felt engulfed by endless loss. Young and naive in love, only to regret it
when lost.
No matter what, he couldn''t fall back asleep, tossing and turning in bed for half an hour before
getting up and reaching for the bottle of alcohol. Sitting by the window, he drank alone, feeling a
sense of loneliness like toasting the moon and facing his own shadow.
This woman was like a lingering spirit in his dreams, entwined for nearly a decade, and he had no
idea when it would end. But his pride wouldn''t allow him to search for her, knowing that ten years
could change everything.
