A Separate Note

It's been a long time since I wrote a separate note to talk to everyone, so let's chat for a bit today. As I've said before, as a writer, I'm a reader first, and I hate seeing a lot of off-topic stuff unrelated to the story. So unless it's necessary, I don't put anything else in the main text. Lately, it's been nothing but the story.

Recently, it's been upload, update, upload, update, without a single word off-topic. I feel like writing this book has turned into a single-player game, so let me say a few things.

This morning, before I even got out of bed, I suddenly heard some terrible news, news that left me with no energy to write at all.

The most important woman in my life left me. Her departure caught me completely off guard, leaving me lost and devastated. Even now, I still feel dazed.

We'd spent so many days together, and just last night we fell asleep in each other's arms.

She didn't talk much, but I loved how quiet she was. She had such a petite frame that I once carried her for miles without feeling tired. Even when we occasionally had disagreements and I scolded her, she never talked back, just stayed quietly and gently by my side.

That gentleness touched me. I'd always believed she would never leave me. I was sure of it.

But I was wrong...

She actually sprang a leak...

Damn it! I clearly put tape on her last night, and I even went out of my way to coat it with a layer of 520 glue. Why was she leaking air today?

I'm a proud sort of cat. The last time I ran into my ex-girlfriend on the road, she was driving a car. Looking rather smug, she asked if I'd found a new girlfriend.

I'm a proud person, so I held my breath and forced myself to say, "I have. She's beautiful, and much gentler than you."

Watching my ex-girlfriend leave in a huff, I couldn't have been more pleased with myself. But there was another half of that sentence I didn't dare say out loud: my current girlfriend had an electrical leak... uh, I mean, she leaked air...

Today, I'm taking this opportunity to get on my knees and beg all my brothers and sisters to support the official release. Yours truly wants to save up and buy a good-quality girlfriend, one that doesn't leak electricity... okay, I said it wrong again. One that doesn't leak air.

Only when I have no worries in life can I be more motivated to write.

I found a great life-sized... doll on Taobao... I hope I can save enough to buy one. Friends reading pirated copies, please support me. Kisses!
