Awkward Boys (1)

All junior high school uniforms were similar; they were all the wide and loose sportswear kind.

The uniform consisted of a white T-shirt with black stripes. The school badge was embroidered on the chest and the school motto was written underneath. With a pair of black pants, it was a simple and harmonious combination.

Little friend Ye Jiajia… No, she couldn’t be called little anymore, they had all grown up.

When Ye Jiajia got the school uniform, she immediately complained to Jiang Xiaoman.

She said, “The clothes are so wide and the pants are so big, two of me can fit inside! It’s not pretty at all! I don’t like it, my legs can’t even get some air, it’s so hot!”

Jiang Xiaoman really liked it.

Because it was very convenient and she could run faster in it. There was no need to change clothes to fight!

Jiang Xiaoman calmed her down and said, “It’s pretty. Didn’t you always envy my practice clothes? It’s the same color as them, they look pretty.”

“But…” Ye Jiajia went silent for a while and nodded, pretending to be persuaded. “Okay.”

Everyone wore the same clothes anyway, so she was not alone in being ugly. When she thought about it that way, she felt a lot better.

But she envied Jiang Xiaoman, because she was calm and thoughtful no matter what happened.

Jiang Xiaoman asked casually, “Don’t you need to be with your little brother at home?”

Ye Jiajia got angry when Jiang Xiaoman mentioned this.

Her little brother was stupid.

He didn’t know how to pour milk by himself, and didn’t know how to wear his clothes by himself. Not only was he unable to help her with her homework, but he instead made her help with his homework!

Ye Jiajia said angrily, “He is in elementary school now, so I don’t need to watch him anymore. Aahhh, dumb, so dumb, how could I have such a dumb brother. My dad told me to help him with his homework. I’m so angry!”

Jiang Xiaoman glanced at her, “What’s the matter?”

“1+1=3, 2+4=5, 3+3=8…” Ye Jiajia grumbled, “Why doesn’t he even know how to do such a simple problem? Why? I feel like I’m aging twice as fast. There is no hope. If I have to tutor him everyday, I’m going to lose half a year of my lifespan. ”

“Just let it go.” Jiang Xiaoman patted her on the shoulder and comforted, “You were also like this before.”

“…”

Ye Jiajia stopped talking.

She swallowed everything that she wanted to say and sat there blankly, her eyes expressionless.

Why did Jiang Xiaoman still remember this kind of thing? Why?

It would be great if Jiang Xiaoman was her younger sister. Her blood pressure wouldn’t be so high if she was tutoring her.

After a pause, Ye Jiajia said again, “Xiaoman, my hair has grown out. Will you come to get a haircut with me?”

Ever since her mother stopped braiding her hair, Ye Jiajia fell further down the rabbit hole. Her dad’s handiwork was so bad that she wouldn’t let him comb her hair at all, and instead did it all herself.

As a result, the more she tinkered with it, the more her heart became obsessed with becoming a cool sister.

She didn’t want to admit that she still remembered Jiang Xiaoman’s colorful little braids.

Jiang Xiaoman did not immediately agree, but took out her calendar and said, “Let me first see what day it is and if there are any taboos.”

“…”

Ye Jiajia waited for her.

When Jiang Xiaoman finally determined that today was not a special day, and there would be no risk of getting beaten even if she cut her hair, she agreed to go out with Ye Jiajia.

When the two walked out of the courtyard and passed by the house next door, they happened to run into Yu Qingshi.

He was basking in the sun while holding Miaomiao, sitting on a rock without saying anything. It was just his pair of eyes staring at Jiang Xiaoman for a moment, as if he wanted to say something.

Jiang Xiaoman exchanged a glance with him, then looked at Ye Jiajia, and used her powerful translation function to send out a sincere invitation to Yu Qingshi. “We are going to go shopping now to buy some clothes, get a haircut and something to eat. Do you want to come with??”

Yu Qingshi immediately stood up and let go of Miaomiao.

“I… (want to go).”

“He definitely won’t go.”

Ye Jiajia waved her hand with a look of disgust. “Xiaoman, we are now grown-ups. These little boys don’t like to play with us anymore. I invited Zhang Xinhua, and he ignored me and called me a little girl. Hmph! Who wants to play with them anyways?”

Jiang Xiaoman thought for a bit while stroking her chin.

She had visited the junior high school building before and found out that the boys and girls indeed did not play together anymore. There was a clear divide between them, as if they couldn’t wait to draw a demarcation line if they walked on the same road.

It seemed that after entering junior high school, you couldn’t play together happily like before.

Jiang Xiaoman blinked. She thought that a boy’s mind was really hard to understand.

But she still respected it.

“Then, do you want to come?” Jiang Xiaoman asked Yu Qingshi again.

Yu Qingshi turned around calmly and said, “No, I still have things to do.”

Jiang Xiaoman was left with only the shadow of his back.

Jiang Xiaoman sighed, thinking that boys really were as awkward as Ye Jiajia said.

If he didn’t want to go, then he didn’t have tp; she would just go with Ye Jiajia.

So the two little ladies went out together hand in hand.

Yu Qingshi… Yu Qingshi looked out from the second-floor window and watched them go away.

Zhang Xinhua, this idiot!

So stupid!
