Story

""

Today my friend Xiao Wang got in touch. He said, "Hi, it's Xiao Wang." I had really been missing him. We are good friends. But it has been a while since we last spent time together.

""""

He said he wanted to go somewhere with me today. I said to him, "Where to?" He said, "A nice place. I just want to be with you."

I thought that was lovely. But I had work today. I told him I could not go right now. I had things on.

""""

He said, "When are you free, then? I can wait." I thought for a moment. I said, "Come over here. We can be together here."

""

He said, "Right!" Then he came over. We were together here. I thought today really was lovely.
