Every day when I passed by the grassland, I would see her playing her guitar. She was the only 7 and I was the only listener. During the rest of the days in the season, life became 8 and I could go over the lessons carefully.
Autumn was 9 over. One day, when I was listening, the sound suddenly stopped. To my surprise, the girl came over to me.
"You 10 like the music," she said.
"Yes, you play very well. Why did you stop?" I asked.
Suddenly, a 11 expression appeared on her face.
"I came here just to have a rest because I 12 in an important exam. I felt very disappointed. And it was your listening every day that 13me," she said, "and I have to go tomorrow."
"In fact, it was your playing that gave me a 14 autumn and helped me believe that I have the ability to pass my exams." I answered, "I think it was God who gave us the 15 to know each other and we should be good friends."
She smiled and I smiled in that beautiful autumn.
