Ma Gang looked at me and smiled as he asked, "Zhou Hong, are you going to miss me?"
I looked at him and replied, "Ma Gang, you must come back safely."
He hugged me and whispered in my ear, "When I return, we will get married."
I nodded.
Ma Gang left, and I watched his figure disappear at the elevator entrance.
I shouted loudly, "Ma Gang, you will definitely come back!"
However, I did not wait for him to return.
On the day of the wedding, I felt restless, my eyelids twitching incessantly.
The auspicious time had passed, and the guests were still waiting for Ma Gang's arrival.
I hadn't heard from Ma Gang for an entire week, and my heart was filled with unease.
My colleagues comforted me, saying that Ma Gang would be fine.
I smiled faintly, but my intuition was not good.
Just as I picked up the microphone to announce the cancellation of the wedding, the doors of the hotel hall opened.
Several soldiers walked in.
Their expressions were serious and sorrowful.
My heart suddenly raced; I sensed that the worst had happened.
The person at the front was holding a tray with neatly folded military uniforms and caps on it.
I heard someone say, "Comrade Ma Gang, may you rest in peace."
At that moment, my world collapsed. I fell to the ground and fainted.
When I woke up, I found myself lying on a hospital bed. I tiredly closed my eyes, and tears slid down the corners of my eyes. Ma Gang had promised to stay with me; he had said he would marry me. But now, he had broken his promise. It felt as if a piece of my chest had been gouged out, making it hard for me to breathe.
Ma Gang's comrades came to guard me in the hospital room. One of them urged me to eat something, but I had no appetite. I looked at him and asked, "Can you tell me about how Ma Gang sacrificed himself?" He nodded.
My heart tore apart once more. His comrade told me that Ma Gang sacrificed himself to rescue a kidnapped hostage. To save the hostage, he gave up his own life. He was shot by a criminal and was taken to the hospital, but they couldn't save him.
I cried uncontrollably, trembling all over. I asked, "Did he leave any last words for me?" The comrade shook his head. He handed me a ring wrapped in red cloth and a dried lavender flower. Those were Ma Gang's belongings.
I held the ring tightly, tears streaming down my face. I treasured the ring and wiped our wedding photo, reminiscing about the past. I cried, laughed, felt sweet moments, and then sank into sadness again.
If time could forever stay in this moment, how wonderful it would be. Ma Gang and I would get married, have children, and grow old together. But now, he has left me first. I buried my head in the pillow and cried out loud. Ma Gang, how could he go back on his word? How could he leave me all alone?
Suddenly, the doorbell rang. I quickly got up to open the door, holding onto a glimmer of hope that the person standing at the door would be Ma Gang. I opened the door only to find a delivery. Heartbroken, I brought the package inside and placed it on the coffee table.
As I opened the wrapping, I found a huge brown Hugging Bear. I hugged the bear tightly, and my nose tinged with sadness. I thought of Ma Gang; he had said he liked bears and enjoyed being held by me.
My hand suddenly brushed against a small note on the bear. I pulled it off, and it was written in Ma Gang's handwriting: "Zhou Hong, I love you. The bear will hug you for me until I come to marry you."
I couldn't hold back any longer; I clutched the bear and sobbed uncontrollably. Ma Gang would not come to marry me anymore.
