My absurd experiences in North America over the years

The sun was still shining brightly on California's southern coast, and the sea breeze, carrying a salty, damp scent, tousled Lucy's slightly damp blonde hair.

She took Li Fu's hand, and barefoot on the soft sand, ran towards the sea where laughter and joy had once been heard.

Just yesterday, Li Fu was right at their feet, gently applying sunscreen to her.

She really wanted to do it again.

However, it seems unnecessary.

Because she was leaving in two or three hours.

"Li," Lucy's voice choked with emotion, "I'm so reluctant to let him go..."

"Me too," Li Fu replied softly, his fingers lingering on her shoulder blade for a moment before slowly sliding down to her arms. "But life isn't always smooth sailing; sometimes parting is for a better reunion."

Upon hearing this, Lucy's eyes reddened, and tears streamed down her face. "Yes, it must be for a better encounter."

She tiptoed and kissed Li Fu's lips.

This kiss was no longer a tentative, awkward one, but rather filled with deep affection and reluctance at parting.

After that, they tried surfing again.

This time, Lucy was no longer the clumsy novice.

She lay steadily on the surfboard, paddling and waiting for the right wave.

When a suitable wave came, she quickly stood up, bent her knees slightly, maintained her balance, and stood steadily on the surfboard.

As if to vent her emotions, she rushed against the waves, her figure weaving through the sea.

Tears, mixed with water droplets, had already silently slid down their cheeks.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Li Fu caught the young girl in the waist-deep water.

Even under the sun, the waist-deep seawater felt slightly cool, but that wasn't enough to cool down the burning passion.

Lucy hugged Li Fu tightly around the neck, burying her face in the crook of his neck, wishing she could become one with him.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still.

The sounds of the waves and the cries of seagulls in the distance became blurred; in their world, only each other's breaths and heartbeats remained.

Lucy's kiss landed gently on Li Fu's neck, then slowly moved upwards, kissing his earlobe and his cheek.

Finally, his lips.

Li Fu responded to her kiss, his voice filled with long-suppressed emotions and uncertainty about the future.

Their kiss grew ever more tender in the surging sea, as if they wanted to pour out all their love and reluctance to part.

Li Fu gently stroked Lucy's wet blonde hair, feeling its softness and smoothness.

Lucy's fingers gripped his shoulders tightly, as if afraid that if she let go, he would disappear.

The waves pushed them closer together, like an invisible hand.

Lucy was no longer satisfied with a hug through clothes. She eagerly took off Li Fu's T-shirt, her fingers clumsy with excitement.

Li Fu took the opportunity to pull her into his arms.

Using the buoyancy of the seawater, they lifted her up so that their eyes were completely level.

"Don't be sad, we'll meet again," Li Fu's voice was hoarse, filled with undeniable affection.

Lucy looked obediently into his eyes, those deep blue eyes reflecting only his image.

She tilted her head back slightly, her wet blonde hair clinging to her cheeks and neck, water droplets sliding down her collarbone and into the edge of her swimsuit, shimmering in the sunlight.

Li Fu lowered his head and kissed those slightly parted red lips.

The kiss carried an almost obsessive sense of predation.

His tongue pried open her teeth and plunged in, entwining with hers.

The salty, astringent taste of the seawater mingled with each other's aromas, spreading between the lips and teeth like an addictive poison.

Lucy let out a soft whimper, her arms wrapped tightly around Li Fu's neck, her fingers digging into his damp black hair, as if she wanted to blend herself into his bones and blood.

The Pacific sea breeze pushed the waves to crash against them, wetting their eyelashes and blurring their vision.

This, however, made their sense of touch even more acute.

Li Fu supported Lucy's body with one hand to prevent her from slipping, while his other hand traced the curve of her back, feeling the delicate, warm skin beneath his palm.

With each surge of the waves, their bodies pressed even closer together, as if they were conducting a silent farewell ceremony on the undulating sea.

The waves relentlessly pounded the beach, producing a monotonous and eternal sound.

It's like singing a dirge for the lovers who are about to part ways.

Li Fu carried Lucy as they walked step by step into deeper waters until the seawater reached their chests.

The buoyancy of the water made everything light, allowing them to temporarily forget the heavy shackles of the land.

The family's expectations and the political enemies' schemes.

And insurmountable class barriers.

In this embrace of the azure sky, they were just a young couple.

Lucy wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, just like one of her favorite gestures: kissing, hugging, and lifting him up high.

Li Fu held her, feeling the full weight and trust of the girl in his arms—a heavy, almost heartbreakingly intense emotion.

He pressed his forehead against hers, their noses touching, their breaths mingling.

The salty seawater dampened their eyelashes, and each blink was like a silent farewell.

"Li..." Lucy murmured softly.

This was a call, carrying with it an uncontrollable tremor and longing.

Li Fu completed the final step.

The seawater gently enveloped them, and the sound of the waves seemed to be a sigh for the two of them. There were no extra words, only their suppressed breaths and the echo of the waves.

Lucy closed her eyes, buried her face in Li Fu's neck, and tears silently streamed down her face, merging into the boundless sea.

She felt his every heartbeat.

This moment is not just an interaction between us, but a fusion of our souls.

She wanted to etch the feeling of this moment—his warmth, his breath, and the rhythm of his heartbeat—deep into the very depths of her soul.

This time is unlike any other.

Besides the environment, there's also each other's emotions.

There was no one on the beach, so they could do whatever they wanted without restraint.

The impending separation made them more affectionate than ever before.

Lucy frowned slightly and bit her lower lip.

It was clearly the most affectionate act, the moment she was most infatuated with.

But her tears still fell silently.

She was both happy and sad, both relieved and heartbroken.

Sunlight filtered through the clear seawater, casting dappled shadows on them as they swayed with the waves, much like their precarious fate at that moment.

The cries of seagulls in the distance added to the sorrow.

No one knows or cares how much time has passed.

The tides surged and ebbed, only finally ceasing as the sun began to set.

Lucy's fingernails dug gently into Li Fu's back, leaving a few faint red marks, her silent plea to stay.

Li Fu hugged her even tighter, as if if he let go, she would disappear into the blue sky like a bubble.

When the last wave pushed them ashore, the two reluctantly parted ways.

……

The story then enters its next phase.
