东南联大报到当天,恰逢“9.11”事发。姚旺爸妈急忙退了返程的飞机票,改乘火车回家。在车站送别父母的那一刹那,泪水突袭了姚旺的眼眶。男儿有泪不轻弹啊,他赶紧转过头稳定心神,把泪水强咽了回去。怎么这么没出息,眼前这个陌生的城市,不正是自己追求的独立天地
吗?刚开学课程并不多,突然多出来大量可以自己支配的时间,姚旺有点无所适从。除了学习,寂寞的时候,他想得最多的还是袁芳。她现在过得怎么样,复读生活一定很辛苦吧?离开了她的身边,姚旺感到前所未有的失落。他决定给袁芳写信。育阳的收发室是可以帮学生收信的,只要
知道她的班级就行了。这个并不难,育阳仅有两个复读班,姚旺通过一个同样在育阳复读的朋友,很容易地打听到了袁芳的班级编号。他准备将这个朋友发展成自己的内线,当然,姚旺每次打电话都故意天南地北地闲扯,没有让这个线人觉察到他收集情报的意图。
在自习室坐了一天,姚旺终于打好了一份信件草稿,虽然上面只是些鼓励人的套话,但他还是用心推敲修改了很多遍。定稿后,工工整整地誊抄在信纸上,一共三页,结尾处详细地留下了自己的通讯地址。而后,将信纸小心地折了三折,封入一个漂亮的信封里。为了避免袁芳的惹上
什么流言蜚语,姚旺没有在信封上写寄信人的姓名和地址。那时省际邮资是八毛钱,他为了保险,贴了一张一元的。后来还是担心信件超重,又跑去邮局进行了确认。把信交给邮政人员后,他还是不放心,万一那人忘了给我寄怎么办,还是应该投到邮箱里更保险吧......
自从投出那封信之后,姚旺开始了度日如年的生活。等待中有两种味道,一种是担心,一种是希望。担心的,是邮局的运送,更是自己在袁芳心中的分量;等待同时也充满了希望和幻想,像苦咖啡中蕴藏的绵香,让人痛并快乐着。从前,他认为能和袁芳说上话便是莫大的荣幸,现在
竟开始奢望成为保持通信的朋友,一天夜里,更是梦见自己和她并肩走在洒满阳光的路上,幸福得叫人晕眩。姚旺发现自己的要求越来越高了,他觉得应该好好反省,说不定人家根本不会回信呢。

The day of registration at the Southeast Associated University coincided with 9.11. Yao Wang's parents hurriedly canceled their return flight tickets and took the train home instead. The moment they said goodbye to their parents at the station, tears burst into Yao Wang's eyes. The man didn't shed tears easily. He quickly turned around. I over-stabilized my mind and swallowed back my tears. Why am I so hopeless? Isn’t this strange city in front of me the independent world I pursue?
There weren't many courses at the beginning of the school year, and suddenly there was a lot of time at his disposal. Yao Wang was a little at a loss except when he was studying. When he was lonely, what he thought about most was Yuan Fang. How is she doing now? It must be very hard to repeat her studies. She left her side. Yao Wang felt unprecedentedly disappointed. He decided to write a letter to Yuan Fang. The mailroom in Yuyang can only help students receive letters.
It's not difficult to know her class. There are only two repeating classes in Yuyang. Yao Wang easily found out Yuan Fang's class number through a friend who was also repeating in Yuyang. He planned to develop this friend into his insider. Of course Every time Yao Wang called, he deliberately chatted in all directions without letting the informant notice his intention to collect intelligence.
After sitting in the study room for a day, Yao Wang finally typed up a draft of the letter. Although it was just some encouraging words, he carefully thought about it and revised it many times before finalizing it and copying it neatly onto the letter paper. There are three pages in total at the end of the letter. In order to avoid Yuan Fang's trouble, he carefully left his mailing address and then folded the letter paper in three parts and sealed it into a beautiful envelope.
What are the rumors? Yao Wang didn't write the sender's name and address on the envelope. At that time, the inter-provincial postage was 80 cents. He put a one-dollar stamp for insurance. Later, he was still worried that the letter was overweight, so he went to the post office to confirm and handed the letter over. After calling the postal service, he was still worried about what to do if the person forgot to send it to me. It would be safer to put it in the mailbox...
Since he posted that letter, Yao Wang has started to live a life that lasts like a year. There are two flavors in the waiting, one is worry and the other is hope. Worrying about the delivery of the post office, and even more so, his own weight in Yuan Fang's heart. Waiting is also full of hope and hope. Fantasy is like the soft fragrance contained in bitter coffee, which makes people feel pain and happiness. In the past, he thought it was a great honor to be able to talk to Yuan Fang. Now
He actually began to expect to become friends who kept communicating. One night, he even dreamed that he was walking side by side with her on the road full of sunshine. He was so happy that he felt dizzy. Yao Wang found that his demands were getting higher and higher. He felt that he should reflect on her. I won't reply at all.
