She opened her eyes and suddenly thought of something, and sat up from the bed with a “whoosh“.
Lennon!
He said he arrived in Los Angeles around midnight last night.
Marie hurriedly dressed, casually combed her hair, and dashed downstairs.
The water has receded, leaving behind patches of damp water stains on the cement floor.
Marie ran downstairs and immediately caught sight of the familiar figure under the eaves.
Cold and lonely.
He had his back turned to her.
He, who had a slight obsession with cleanliness, at this very moment, had a pair of shoes that had been dirtied by mud and water, with the pant legs covered in yellow mud and water stains, and small specks of mud splattered on his clothes.
She had never seen Lennon so disheveled.

Marie’s nose felt sour, and she couldn’t quite put into words what she was feeling in her heart.
In the heat of the moment, she rushed up and hugged Lennon from behind.
“You came,” three very soft words.
The man’s body stiffened.
Long–awaited embrace.
Who knows how long he had been waiting for this hug.
The horizon was tinged with a gentle orange–red, as if it were the paint accidentally splattered by a painter.
In the morning light, the smoke from the cooking rose gently, intertwining with the morning mist, like long–lost lovers, tender and affectionate.
The outline of the trees gradually became clear in the dim light.
The dewdrops silently fell, landing on the lake of the lover’s heart, creating ripples in circles.
All of this, it was as beautiful as a dream.
Lennon was tenderly embraced from behind by Marie, and time seemed to stand still in that
moment.
The man didn’t dare to move at all, afraid that if he moved, the dream would wake up.
They both remained silent in tacit agreement.
It felt as if it had been a century, so long.

Lennon turned around.
Marie first noticed the man’s slightly trembling Adam’s apple due to nervousness.
Above, were his deep, dark eyes.
Those eyes gazed at her affectionately, with emotions swirling in them. Marie couldn’t resist and turned her face away, avoiding their gaze.
