Fang Jinghe is very much like the gentle language she was when she didn't lose her parents.

Cute and lively, warm and beautiful, confident and wonderful.

After class, she would take Yuruo for a bike ride around the campus.

Sometimes she would even skip classes with Yuruo just to watch a morning drizzle.

The rain falls gently, accompanied by the scent of soil.

It's comfortable.

She even took the time to read the nurturing notes that my husband and I wrote for Yuruo.

She recorded Yuruo's habits step by step.

At first, Yuruo resisted being with her.

Because she felt unlucky.

She had caused the death of her parents.

She was afraid of causing harm to Fang Jinghe again, so she always avoided her.

Fortunately, Fang Jinghe never gave up.

She accompanied her daughter throughout her college years.

Fang Jinghe asked Yuruo about her plans after graduation and whether she needed help finding a job.

Yuruo shook her head and chose to study abroad.

She studied dance.

Because Yuruo has loved ballet since she was little.

My husband and I also had her study ballet for ten consecutive years.

She has participated in many competitions and gained some reputation in the city.

I originally thought I would see her standing on the stage, under the spotlight.

But I didn't expect the accident to happen so suddenly.

...

In the three years abroad, Yuruo was no longer as fragile as when she first lost us.

She became strong. Before, even if she accidentally scraped her skin, she would cry for half a day.

But now, when her feet swell for a few days, she doesn't say a word.

She couldn't get used to the food abroad, but for the sake of having strength in her body, she forced herself to eat.

She vomited several times, but she endured the discomfort and continued to practice.

She got up earlier than others, practiced harder than others, and didn't give herself any rest time.

Every time Fang Jinghe called her, Yuruo would only talk about the interesting things she encountered in the dance troupe.

Everything was calm like the surface of a lake.

Finally, in Yuruo's twenty-fifth year, she welcomed her own opportunity.

The first ballet competition program in China, the head of the dance troupe helped her sign up.

Yuruo returned to China.

Seeing her regain her fighting spirit, I was also very happy.

Yuruo chose to go abroad to escape the familiar place where her parents were.

When she left home, Yuruo turned her head and looked back deeply.

I knew she was waiting for me and my husband to wave goodbye to her.

Before, when Yuruo went to school, she was reluctant to leave home.

So, every time she walked out the door, we stood at the doorway and smiled at her.

"Mommy will wait for you to come back, oh."

"Be a good girl and go to school. Daddy will treat you to Pizza Hut when you come back."

But now, the doorway is just a doorway.

With red eyes, Yuruo has been away for three years.
