第一章 Late at Night,Do You Turn off Your Cell Phone?
·Anonymous·
The girl would turn her cell phone off and put it by her photo on the desk every night before going to bed. This habit has been with her ever since she bought the phone.
The girl had a very close boyfriend. When they couldn’t meet,they would either call or send messages to each other. They both liked this type of communication.
One night,the boy really missed the girl. When he called her,however,the girl’s cell phone was off because she was already asleep. The next day,the boy asked the girl to leave her cell phone on at night because when he needed to find her and could not,he would be worried.
From that day forth,the girl began a new habit. Her cell phone never shuts down at night. Because she was afraid that she might not be able to hear the phone ring in her sleep,she tried to stay very alert. As days passed,she became thinner and thinner. Slowly,a gap began to form between them.
The girl wanted to revive their relationship. On one night,she called the boy. However,what she got was a sweet female voice:“Sorry,the subscriber you dailed is power off.”
The girl knew that her love has just been turned off.
After a long time,the girl has a new love. No matter how well they got along,the girl however refused to get married. In the girl’s heart,she always remembered that boy’s words and the night when that phone was power off.
The girl still keeps the habit of leaving her cell phone on all throughout the night,but not expecting that it’ll ring.
