Chapter 7: The Rhythm of Two Worlds
University life proved to be a completely different ballgame for both of them. Linh’s schedule at
the academy was strict, filled with early morning roll calls, rigorous physical training, and
demanding law lectures. Meanwhile, he was buried under his final-year engineering graduation
thesis and internship reports. Despite the hectic nature of their respective worlds, they found
comfort in the quiet moments they managed to steal together.
Every Saturday afternoon became their sacred time. They would meet at a quiet, hidden café
near the campus boundary. Sitting across from each other, Linh would eagerly recount her
struggles with martial arts drills, while he would patiently explain the complex coding projects he
was working on. Though their fields of study were entirely different, their mutual support created
a perfect harmony.
One rainy weekend, as they shared an umbrella walking back to the station, he suddenly
stopped and looked down at her. "Linh, I've noticed you always try so hard to keep up with
everyone else," he said, his voice laced with gentle concern. "But remember, to me, you're
already doing amazing. Don't forget to take care of yourself." Those words, simple yet
profoundly genuine, made Linh realize that her "Hàn Trình"—her cold, exhausting journey—had
officially turned into a path filled with unconditional warmth.
Chapter 8: Confessions Under the Rain
As the first winter winds began to bite, the academy hosted its annual cultural exchange festival,
a rare event where outsiders were permitted to visit the campus. Linh, dressed in her formal
uniform, was assigned to help manage the greeting booth at the main gate. Her eyes constantly
drifted toward the entrance, searching through the sea of arriving guests.
Just as the sky began to drizzle, she saw him walking through the gates, holding the exact
same umbrella from that rainy weekend. But this time, he wasn't alone; a few of his university
friends were teasing him, pointing in Linh's direction. As he approached her booth, his friends
cheered softly, making Linh’s cheeks turn a bright crimson.
"Hey," he said, stepping up to her with a warm smile that completely ignored the chilly weather.
He didn't just hand her a hot cup of coffee this time; instead, he turned to his friends and then
looked back at Linh, his expression turning serious yet incredibly tender. "Linh, I think it's time
everyone knows. I don't just want to be the senior who waits for you anymore. I want to be the
one who walks right beside you, officially, as your boyfriend."
Hearing his confession in front of her peers and his friends made Linh’s heart leap with joy. She
looked into his eyes, nodded with a bright smile, and softly replied, "I've been waiting for this day
too." Amidst the cheering of their friends and the gentle winter rain, their status was no longer a
hidden admiration, but a proudly shared reality.
