It is a relatively ordinary high school in New York City.
The cold winter wind blows through the city streets in the afternoon. Looking through the railings of the school, it is time for school to end. The students come out of the classroom, carrying their schoolbags and notebooks. Some go to get their bicycles and drive past the playground.
, getting ready to go home, there was a game going on on the football field with some yellow grass. There were groups of children stopping to watch, chatting in twos and threes, or shouting for cheers. There were simple wooden chairs in the corner of the field.
In the auditorium, there is a relatively large group of spectators. There are about ten men and women in total. They are all students from this school. They appear to be old and young, black and white. They are watching the game at this time.
While chatting.
"Las Vegas? OK, I went there two years ago. It's so beautiful. Do you really want to go? I know a casino and I won a lot of money there... To be honest, it's really
It’s a good place.”
Christmas is approaching, and most schools in the United States have already started their winter vacation. This middle school has started late, but it is also during these two days. If there are still many well-behaved children in American junior high schools, all the students entering high school have already
When they reached the rebellious stage, they longed for individuality, publicity, extraordinaryness, and independence. As soon as the holidays came, they began to discuss traveling together after Christmas.
A trip without parents' participation is actually equivalent to some form of matching activity. In a strange city, people who are familiar with each other will quickly establish a good impression. Here in the United States, students meet with students in junior high school and high school.
It is not uncommon for people to develop sexual relationships. Of course, there may be some conservative people among them. Just like there are freaks among any kind of people, this is undeniable.
After chattering for a while, everyone finally agreed on Las Vegas. A few boys intentionally or unintentionally looked at the girl sitting in the crowd, and one of the tall black boys said: "
Then make sure you go to Las Vegas, Heidi, what do you think? I didn't even hear you express your opinion." He said. He followed the girl's eyes and looked at the playground, as if he was trying to find something from it.
, for a moment, his eyes locked on a running white boy.
"Ah, Las Vegas? Well..." The girl focused her eyes that were a little distracted due to thinking, and then shrugged indifferently, "Okay, I'll go there after Christmas." In crisp English, she shrugged and
There was a neatness and carefreeness unique to American children in her speaking movements. After hearing her affirmative words, several boys around her laughed as if relieved, and everyone began to talk about this time lively.
As for the details of the tour, things have been finalized.
Among the crowd, the girl who attracted most people's attention was about fourteen or fifteen years old. If she were placed in China, she would probably only be considered a girl. In Japan, she would be a loli. This is like oranges born in the south and north.
, at this time, due to the independent feeling in her body, she can barely be called a girl.
The girl in the crowd has black hair, not the dazzling pure black like waterfalls and satin. Her hair is spread quietly on the back of her head. Her hair is not long, just past her shoulders, and occasionally her hair is lightly fluttering.
, there is a feeling of gauze and mist, wearing a light purple top, trousers with four hidden pockets, and pink sneakers with white subtitles. The chest has developed slightly, but it is not obvious, especially in winter.
Under the attire, her figure looks a little short, but she looks even more cute. The warm-toned clothes and the innocent smile that always hangs on her lips can always give people a feeling of liking.
Her temperament seems to be independent and independent, but also has a touch of softness that is in line with Eastern aesthetics. This may also be related to her heritage as a Chinese-American mixed race.
The girl named Heidi Tang not only has a mixed-race, single-parent family identity, but is also said to have a mafia family background, which made her attract the attention of many boys even during the first half of her freshman year of high school.
.No self-respecting girl dares to express dissatisfaction with her face to face. As for these boys caring so much about her opinions, it is naturally not because they are afraid of her background, but because of her unique sweetness and contradictory temperament, which are mixed together.
a huge attraction.
Of course, if we are observant enough, we may be able to spot the man who lived in Jianghai City a few years ago, wearing a tattered and sloppy dress, with bare feet, a dirty little face, and smoking dirty clothes.
She has a small nose and is waiting for the shadow of the little girl from Jiaming in front of the noodle cart every night. But in general, she has grown up a lot. Her eyes are still pure and clear, but she no longer feels confused and helpless at that time.
, the somewhat deliberate stickiness and coquettishness that she had when she followed her mother to Jianghai half a year ago, was not revealed at all at this time. During the time that we, including Jiaming, did not pay attention to, the little girl back then was actually
It has gradually grown up.
"Heidi." understands that she can communicate lively with others most of the time, but at certain special moments - usually during her thinking time when she is trying to compose music - she will also become quiet and silent, watching people around her
After discussing, they sat next to her and her deskmate Amy, who had a good relationship with her, came over: "What are you thinking about? Who are you looking at? Bill Wins?"
"Ah? I was thinking..." Heidi smiled, "I want to travel to China."
"China? Why do you want to go there? Oh... you usually like Chinese things. I have seen you reading books about China several times. I heard that you can also speak Chinese?"
"Still learning." She replied in Chinese with a smile. When Amy showed a confused expression, she shrugged, "
Just kidding, haha, by the way... I know Vince, who is the football captain?"
"The recently elected vice-captain, the one who looks good and plays football well, I thought you were looking at him. Look, there he is, here he is...ah, watch out!"
Before Amy finished speaking, Heidi turned her head and saw a football roaring towards her. The black boy in front of him subconsciously ducked, and the football hit Heidi on the forehead and flew high into the air.
"Ah, ah, ah..." The girl who was sitting on the back of the wooden chair waved her hands in the air a few times, and then fell to the grass behind with a bang. The boys around were stunned for a moment in silence.
The children covered their mouths and tried to laugh, but then Amy turned around first: "Heidi, are you okay?"
Before she finished speaking, Heidi, who had fallen to the ground, stood up and patted her scattered hair, cheeks, and then her clothes. The boy over there shouted: "Accident." I don't know if she heard it, but she just trotted away.
, first caught up with the football, then ran to the edge of the field with the ball in his arms, and kicked it out hard.
The football flew across half of the football field. Although it had lost much power, because the goalkeeper was a little dazed at this time, the football accurately flew into the goal.
"Don't let me see you playing football like this again! Otherwise I will kick your ass hard!"
After shaking her fists and shouting loudly, Heidi crossed her hands, pursed her lips and gave a fierce sign of the middle finger. The man on the court spread his hands, a little at a loss, and everyone around him laughed. He walked to the wooden stand.
Finally, Heidi rubbed her sore forehead, picked up the backpack with the guitar and hung it on her shoulder: "I'm leaving first. Bye."
"bye……"
"Remember the time and get ready."
"I know, I know!"
After waving her hand, Heidi walked straight out of the school gate. On the side of the road there, a silver women's Honda had stopped. It looked spacious and refreshing. It gave people a sense of independence. One woman was wearing a brown windbreaker.
The woman with her hair tied back was already standing by the car door and nodded. Heidi got directly into the passenger seat and then threw the guitar behind the car.
After a while, the woman in a brown trench coat got into the driving seat and the car slowly drove onto the highway.
"on vacation?"
"Um."
"I just saw you being hit by a football. Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
"Sorry, I'm late today. I wanted to talk to someone from Ruite Company about something."
"It doesn't matter……"
"Jia Ming came to the United States."
"Hmm...ah!" Heidi suddenly turned her gaze away from the window. Heidi exclaimed and turned to her mother, only to see her mother turn her head and smile, "I lied to you, you look so absent-minded..."
"I want to go to China..." she muttered. Marilyn on the side turned her head: "But we can't go there and cause trouble for him."
"I know... so after Christmas I will only go to Las Vegas..."
"Las Vegas? Do you want to travel?"
"Yeah. With my classmates."
"A bunch of kids? No. I object!"
"I promised them."
"No, if you want to travel, I can accompany you. You can't be alone..."
"Not alone..."
"It's just a person. I mean it's no different than if you go alone."
"I promised. You taught me that you can't go back on things you promised others."
"That's what Tang Jingyao told you, not to mention that he didn't even keep his promise. Jiaming also told you that regretting is a woman's prerogative. Who do you listen to?"
"You shouldn't teach me such things, it's wrong."
"You're not allowed to go anyway..."
The heated discussion in the car continued all the way, and gradually turned westward. The car had just approached a huge manor on the seaside. Suddenly, Marilyn, who was driving, was startled. She felt the violent vibration of the car. Heidi looked at it in confusion.
He glanced at his mother and then looked forward.
At this time, sitting by the flower bed outside the gate of the manor, an Oriental boy with an ordinary appearance was sitting. He was wearing a down jacket that was as ordinary as him, carrying a bag, and was sitting boredly.
The weather there seemed a bit cold, and he tightened his collar from time to time. Since he was an Oriental, his behavior seemed a bit old-fashioned, and a strong man in a black suit looked at him with an unfriendly expression at the gate of the manor.
The car stopped slowly.
The car door opened. She was wearing a brown windbreaker and silver high heels. She stretched her legs out of the car door and seemed to fall to the ground with a slight trembling. On the other side, the car door banged several times, as if because of the little girl's excitement.
, couldn't open the door for a while, and then jumped out with a bang.
"Uh...I've been waiting for you for a long time." The young man stood up, "I don't have any other acquaintances, is it okay to stay here for a few days?"
"This is all yours." She tried her best to suppress her excitement. Marilyn's voice was unusually soft, as if any movement would tear apart the dream in front of her. But then, Heidi's figure rushed over with cheers and hugged her with a bang.
The young man stopped, and with a few splashes, the two of them rolled into the flower bed at the back at the same time...
**********
The description of Heidi is a bit too long, but I think it is necessary. After reading it again, it seems that it is not satisfactory. I don’t know if everyone likes this kind of Lolita image, um, an American girl about fourteen years old...
