Today, after finishing an exam, I came back to sleep. I had just fallen asleep, when my roommate was waking me up. Before I threw a fit, he handed me his cell phone.
What the screen showed on his phone was my dad"s Weibo, where my dad posted, "See you on Friday."
I said, "Is he going to do something?"
My roommate nodded frantically, taking his phone back and changing into another page. Then he handed it to me again.
It was the information page of my dad"s Weibo. The gender had been changed from blank to "male".
My roommate said excitedly, "The news had been exposed in chat groups. And there were some new posts about it on the forum."
"Oh." I rubbed my eyes and asked him, "So what should we do now?"
My roommate was stunned by my reaction with bright eyes: "What?"
I: "I mean how to guard your "G.o.ddess" this time."
My roommate: "So cool he is！He is my G.o.d now!"
Disgusting...
I: "Well, how should we defend your G.o.d?"
My roommate: "Just wait and see. Huh? Why are you so listless? This is about your dad!"
I looked at my ignorant and carefree roommate, sighing in my mind, "Dude, how do you know my pain?" Well, on the surface, I just pretended to yawn, rubbing my eyes and replying: "I was sleepy."
My roommate: "Alright! Go to sleep!"
I lay down again, hearing him typing on the computer. From my point of view, I could see his computer screen, where he was talking to his girlfriend. I guessed they were probably gossiping about my dad.
Although I was sleepy, I was concerned about the gossip of my dad.
So, I turned over and opened my cell phone.
Just five minutes after my dad posted that Weibo, it was reposted, liked and commented by more than one thousand times. The first dozens of comments were basically "Oh My G.o.d". Some of them commented with the screenshot of my dad"s information page.
In the chat groups, they were discussing about my dad, putting forward their opinions.
Among them, some comments caught my attention---most of them thought that my dad was gonna respond the matter about his gender, while there were several fans thought x.x.x was gonna quit this circle.
The reason was that my dad had been questioned and provoked for countless times since he entered into the circle, but he had never responded to it.
From his rare posts mentioning his own opinions on Weibo, it could be seen that he only paid attention to his works rather than other things.
"Other things" included the popularity, fans, mean comments and so on.
It was too unusual for such a person to make a response suddenly.
By virtue of their intuition, they boldly speculated that my dad was gonna quit this circle.
Of course, most people didn"t believe what they said, thinking they were talking nonsense.
Well, I thought they really knew my dad.
So, following their profile, I looked through their Weibos. Then I found out that they were such fans really supporting my dad.
There was indeed a communication of aura among people.
If you loved someone very much, your aura would be linked to his. Then you would notice the details no one else could do and discover the secrets others couldn"t find.
Their love for my dad was so strong that I was stunned.
So I thought maybe they were right.
After that, I was very calm, and I didn"t want to wonder what he was trying to do.
However, if he was really going to quit the circle, I would feel so sorry for him.
My dad had just this one hobby that he enjoyed, which almost incurred him an Internet ma.s.s hunting, so that he had to reveal himself.
They didn"t know him well, but I knew him fairly well.
I was there when he was an innocent teenager. And I knew there was a boy living in his soul.
Now he was grown up, not that naive youth. Occasionally, he wanted to put on a mask to unleash that little boy, however, there was no place for him to play. Thinking about it, I felt sad.
Q&A session.
1. Could we know who he is now?
Well, maybe. As far as I knew about him, if he revealed himself, he would offer lots of information for you to find out his ident.i.ty. So that, your curiosity would be satisfied.
2. After he was exposed, would we continue to post?
This question made me suspect that you had knew who he was now. [sad][sad][sad]
And I am not sure whether I would continue to update or not.
So, it depends.
3. What would I do if this post was found out by my dad?
My friend who asked this question, I had remembered your ID.
You made me scared, panicked and nervous!
And now I answered you: "If this post was found, you would lose me, forever."
This day was Thursday. My roommate and his girlfriend, and his girlfriend"s good friend were focus on the matter of my dad. They even had no mood to take the exam.
At lunch, my roommate asked me to have lunch with him.
Throughout the lunch time, I listened quietly to their gossiping about my dad.
Two girlfriends of my roommate"s girlfriend now were excited. For convenience, I called them A and B.
A: "I"m going to approach and get him after Friday!"
B: "Forget it! You are so concerned about the looks. What if he is not so handsome after he removes the makeup?"
A was unconvinced, arguing with B about how handsome my dad was...That was quite a funny scene. So I made an excuse that I was gonna review and left first.
After leaving them, I would like to call my dad.
Recently, considering my feelings for my dad, I used exam as an excuse for not going to his house on weekends. So we communicated with each other by phone calls. Therefore, it was natural to call him now.
Before I called him, I thought of a more exciting way---video-calling my dad from wechat.
He would answer a video call from his peer as a coser. So I didn"t think he would refuse me.
Then I did it.
I was quite nervous.
I was afraid that he would refuse it.
Then I would be devastated!
Thank G.o.d! He answered it!
He probably put the phone on a stack of books. The screen was right in front of his face, with his arms on the front. He must be typing. After the video call was connected, he glanced at the screen and smiled.
He asked: "Why would you video-call me suddenly?"
I was staring at him...
His eyebrows were groomed, with clean-cut looking. His nose was as prominent and straight as was carved by the G.o.d. His eyes were the most beautiful, with the brilliance of innocence from time to time. Usually, if he didn"t laugh, he looked aloof. Well, when he was smiling, people would feel as if there was spring breeze in his eyes. His lips were like two petals, not too thin or too thick.
Those two girls did not know that they had seen my dad and had been attracted by my dad"s looks. If they knew who he was actually, they might faint.
What was more, I regretted telling my roommate about the ident.i.ty of my dad. I should have enjoyed this beautiful secret alone.
I was thinking a lot. Waiting for a while before his question was answered, he put down his business and looked towards me: "What"s going on, XX?"
He called my nickname again!
So I pretended to be cool and said, "x.x.x, aren"t you going to tell the truth to your son before you expose it to the public?"
When I said that, I imagined that he must be stunned, with a complex look from his eyes and speechlessness.
However, I underestimated him.
After listening to it, he just smiled, without surprise or embarra.s.sment.
He said, "Now that you couldn"t wait until tomorrow, I will tell you. Yep! I"m x.x.x."
I was speechless again.
Then, he said, "Well, I"ve already satisfied you. I"ve got an urgent email to reply. So I"ll talk to you seriously later on, okay?"
What? Why did he treat me so gently now? My heart was beating so fast!
I gathered my composure and nodded, "OK."
Then he said, "Well, I"ll hang up now...Oh, I almost forgot to mention that thank you for trying to protect me last time."
Then, he hung up the call.
My heart was beating as loud as the thunderbolts, and I was confused.
