Chapter 1
지난 세기 90년대 초의 어느 여름, 장명은 중강사범대학을 졸업했다.
졸업은 학창 시절의 친구들이 각자의 길로 떠나는 것을 의미했고, 순수한 교정에서 혼탁한 사회로 뛰어드는 것을 의미했다.
졸업은 원앙을 동서로 흩어지게 하는 막대기!
졸업은 수많은 정의 실을 끊어버리는 칼!
3년간의 사범대학 생활은 그를 투박하고 어린 시골 소년에서 풍채 좋은 멋진 청년으로, 중강사범대학 도서관의 모든 책을 읽은 박학다식한 인재로, 말솜씨가 뛰어나고 언변이 좋은 젊은 교사로 성장시켰다.
그에게 이 3년의 수확은 적지 않았지만, 가장 기쁜 수확은 이런 것들이 아니라 바로 엄리였다!
엄리는 그들 반의 미인이자 중강사범대학의 캠퍼스 퀸이었다. 장명의 눈에는 그녀가 중강현의 미인이 될 수 있을 것 같았다. 정인의 눈에는 서시가 보이는 법, 그는 그 어떤 여자도 그녀보다 아름답지 않다고 생각했다! 그녀와 비교하면 중강의 모든 '미인들'은 빛을 잃었다.
그와 그녀의 연애는 두 사람의 마음이 맞아서 이루어진 결과이기도 했지만, 주변 사람들이 부추긴 결과이기도 했다!
모두의 눈에, 그들은 진정한 금동옥녀였고, 천생연분이었다. 동급생들은 모두 그들이 사랑에 빠져야 한다고 생각했다. 그렇지 않으면 위대한 창조주에게 너무 미안한 일이 될 것이라고!
반에서 가장 오만한 남학생 이위는 말했다. "장명 외에는 누가 엄리를 좇든 내가 용납하지 않을 거야!"
반에서 가장 다정다감한 여학생 유영은 공개적으로 선언했다. "나는 장명을 좋아해! 하지만 오직 엄리만이 그와 가장 잘 어울려! 나는 기꺼이 물러나고 그들을 축복할게."
학생들의 연애를 반대하는 담임 선생님조차도 이 천생연분의 커플을 갈라놓을 마음이 없었다. 그는 그들의 관계를 흐뭇하게 지켜보며, 한쪽 눈을 감아줄 뿐만 아니라 종종 그들에게 기회를 만들어 주기도 했다.
3년간의 학창 시절 동안 그들은 1년을 사랑했다. 무정한 세월은 더하고 빼지만, 맛있는 사랑은 담담하다가 짙어진다. 그러나 장명은 매우 이성적인 사람이어서 졸업할 때까지 한계를 넘지 않았다. 좋은 것에 대해서는 그는 급하게 먹어치우지 않고, 차근차근 그녀의 아름다움을 음미하고 싶었다. 손잡기, 포옹, 키스만으로도 그는 이미 매우 행복했다! 엄리를 안을 때마다 충동을 느꼈지만, 매번 참았다. 엄리도 절제력이 있어서 항상 상황을 통제할 수 있었다. 그녀는 자신이 한계를 풀고 경계를 풀면, 장명이 아무리 이성적이라도 자제하지 못할 것을 알고 있었다.
행복한 날들은 항상 빨리 지나가고, 졸업이 다가오면서 현실적인 문제가 그들 앞에 놓였다.
취업 배치를 받아야 했다! 사범대학 졸업생의 배치 원칙은 각자 자신의 고향 지역으로 돌아가는 것이었다. 그는 중강 출신이었고, 그녀는 한강현 출신이었다. 특별한 인맥이 없으면 그들은 함께 배치받을 수 없었다. 함께 배치받지 못하면 그들의 관계는 성공하기 어려웠다. 이런 상황의 이해관계에 대해 두 사람 모두 매우 잘 알고 있었다.
하지만 마지막 며칠까지도 그들은 조심스럽게 이 주제를 피했다. 이것은 이야기하면 마음 아픈 주제였다. 굳이 번뇌를 불러일으킬 필요가 있을까? 차라리 눈앞의 행복을 소중히 여기고 즐기는 게 낫지 않을까?
그래서 마지막 시간에는 그들의 관계가 약해지기는커녕 오히려 급격히 뜨거워졌다.
졸업 파티가 끝난 후, 모두들 짐을 정리하고 다음 날 아침 일찍 집으로 돌아갈 준비를 했다. 하지만 두 사람은 서두르지 않았다. 마치 아직 해결해야 할 중요한 일이 남아 있는 것처럼.

"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
