“我聽見你開門的聲音，就過來了”，

“小青呢”，

“她下午走了”

“哦”

曦兒應了一聲，嗓子有點緊，她不太敢看宇天，說：

“嗯，你還有事嗎？”，

“沒事，只是想和你說一聲謝謝”，

“不用客氣，下次她來，你就讓她住我這裡，沒問題”。

兩個人站在那裡誰也沒說話，空氣象凝固了一樣，過來一會兒，宇天問

“今天玩得好嗎？”，

“挺好，就是很累”，

“那好，你休息吧”，

“再見”。曦兒關上了門，長長地吐了一口氣。

    曦兒躺在床上仔細回味着和宇天的談話，總覺得他可能看出了什麼，如果蘇陽說我一臉失戀表情，這可有些糟。 絕對不能讓他知道。 曦兒暗暗告誡自己。 就這樣，曦兒又度過了一個不安穩的一夜。

下面的幾個星期，曦兒都刻意躲着宇天，每天都很晚回家，有一天在系門口遠遠的看到宇天，嚇得她趕緊又轉回系裡了。

周末總是和朋友去看電影，基本不在宿舍，宇天的生活本來就很規律，起很早，正點下班，下班後就基本在宿舍看書，所以躲宇天很容易。這樣過了一個多月，曦兒感覺自己已經經過了這件事，有時想起宇天也不那麼難過了。

有一天，曦兒在宿舍備課，聽到敲門的聲音，是宇天，

“曦兒，在家嗎？”

曦兒想了想，覺得總這樣躲也不是辦法，就調整了一下情緒，開了門，宇天站在門口，說，

“可以進來坐坐嗎？

“進來吧”，

“曦兒，很久沒看見你了，最近在忙什麼呢？”

“我下學期有課，忙着編講義吶”，

“怪不得”，

雙方都有點語塞，話里話外都透着以前不曾有的客氣和疏遠，宇天想打破尷尬的氣氛，故作輕鬆得問，

“最近這裡好像很安靜，動物園的聯歡會也沒有了，家裡的東西也不太壞了，我好像到有點不習慣了”，

曦兒不知哪裡有了點無名火，搶白道，

“這樣豈不更好，省的有人打攪你”，說完就有些後悔，又補充了一句莫名其妙的話，“對不起，沒什麼”。

“曦兒，你到底是怎麼了？以前你和我說話不是這樣的”，

“宇天，沒什麼，大概是有些累吧”，

宇天有些猶豫地問，

“那個蘇陽是你的男朋友嗎？”

曦兒有些詫異的看了宇天，半天沒會過意來，

“哦，不是，不是，他是我們系的，”，

曦兒如實得回答，又過了一會，宇天說，

“曦兒，如果是我做了什麼不對的事，請你原諒，我絕對不是故意的”，

曦兒用很低的聲音說，

“你沒有，是我自己不小心”，說完覺得眼圈有點紅，佯裝着打了一個哈欠說，

“宇天，我有點困了”

宇天只好站起說，

“好吧，你休息吧”，走到門口，停了一會兒，背對着曦兒說，

“曦兒，對不起，認識你太晚了”，就徑直開門走了，留下曦兒怔怔的站在那裡說不出話來。

接下來的日子，宇天和曦兒相互見面打個招呼，說一些無關緊要的話，偶然，曦兒也說點笑話，但再也不會沒事去找宇天聊天了。

記得當時寫這一段就想起這首歌（That's the way it is.）。

I can read your mind
And I know your story
I see what you're going through, yeah
It's an uphill climb
And I'm feeling sorry
But I know it will come to you, yeah
Don't surrender
'Cause you can win
In this thing called love

When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

When you question me
For a simple answer
I don't know what to say, no
But it's plain to see
If you stick together
You're gonna find the way, yeah
So don't surrender
'Cause you can win
In this thing called love

When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is

That's the way it is

When life is empty,
With no tomorrow,
And loneliness starts to call
Baby don't worry
Forget your sorrow
'Cause love's gonna conquer it all all

When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left in doubt
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it

(And that's the way it is
When you want it the most
There's no easy way out
When you're ready to go
And your heart's left to doubt)

Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
That's the way it is
That's the way it is
Don't give up on your faith
Love comes to those who believe it
And that's the way it is
