Life Beyond Hometown

it was the same day as those days that i left home for school. 

Father took up my backpack, and little brother help me pull my luggage, mama and i were hurry up to the bus station. Bus was coming, and they wished my new life and waved goodbye to me , the same way as before, and the same sentiment I had as before. 

I was about to sleep as usual, and suddenly someone called my name. I opened my eyes and was so surprised that it was one of my middle school classmates standing in front of me, when I came to react, I found they were all on the bus. Yang、run、kun.. they were boys who I knew much in my middle school, but since I went for my senior school, I had not seen them again. That was more than 10 years !  At that moment I was a little embarrassed and did not know what to say. I could also feel the same smell from them. Ten years time has totally made us strange, Long silence..and the rest of the time, I tried to recall my old days but seemed not good. In my memory, there boys were smart and cute in my teenager , but now I only felt strange, they were not as tall as my memory , I didn`t know why they were here together, I didn`t know how these years they were. 

Coincidentally, at that night, I met my best senior friend at KFC. We came back to the senior school.  Until now i could remeber the feeling that I had that night.  Time has changed life and we could never get back. Senior school changed a lot, graduates were located in an new area of school, but we could still see the familiar basket-ball court and stadium, and we happened to hear the ringbell. This famous senior school has come to decline since the term of the brilliant when we were there. We talked about some common friends in my high school, that made my touched without any words. After graduated from college and scattered everywhere to experience good or bad of life, now we became to go totally differently. 

Some of my once intimate friends came back to hometown and to work for the government as a litter staff, now they come to stable down and one has got married. Whereas, someone as me, leave for the outer world, now are torturing the powerful life, sometimes feeling upset , sometimes feeling tired, sometimes feeling promiseful. My best friend now still study in school and are intend to go aboard for future study, we are all a bit envious of friends who return back and we mocked to each other, if we were back ,what could we do ? if we were back ,could we bear the slow down time and everyday too boring to do gossip to spend the time ? if we were back , then after some years later, could some of my junior classmates happened to meet me and say:”a , that`s zhenzhen!! It was disappointed ~” if we were back.. 

We could give us many excuses to say disadvantages  about hometown life , but it was undeniable that we could not get back ,we have no strength、no capability to come back, at the present, we often feel afraid of future , but we had to bite the bullet and move forward, because it time and destiny that make us go forward, in my old time and in my hometown, there is no place for me . we have no choice but just go forward. 

When will we be stopped and have a rest? Only time will know.
