Then, the light turned on.
In the light, Rae saw that there was a projection room inside. It was not too big, about 20 square meters. The level of home theater configuration was very high, and the sound seemed to be the ultimate. After so many years, these things were not at all outdated. Rae was stunned, and saw that there were screens on a huge wall.
Reuben pointed to the sofa and said, "You can find a place to sit down! Seven years ago, we watched a movie here, and you liked to be in my arms!"
Rae's heart did a flip, and her face changed.
Seeing Rae like this, Reuben laughed at himself, "I'm afraid you won't sit with me to watch movies anymore. Find a place to watch it yourself. Look at the things you recorded in the past. Maybe it will help you restore your memory!"
Rae was really curious about the real Rae. So, she did not refuse Reuben's proposal.
Reuben took out a CD without fonts from the drawer. Rae looked over and saw that the CD was indeed a font. He was holding the CD carefully as if he were treating a cherished lover, so careful, for fear that it would be crushed by accident.
Rae sighed. The love of men was really different from that of women!
They can make a clear distinction between reason and sexual desire.
Women can't do it.
Reuben took the CD and glanced at Rae. "I found this CD a few days ago. You should have secretly recorded it yourself. I only watched it for five minutes. I haven't had time to watch it later. I happen to be free now, so I can watch it with you!"
Rae quickly understood. That was ok.
Reuben put the CD in the player, then turned off the lights, and the room was dark.
Rae had found a corner position.
Reuben, on the other hand, sat in another corner in the dark, and the two were far apart.
The beginning of this CD was actually designed to look like a movie.
Reuben's voice came slowly in the dark, almost unrealistic. "Rae, you are so talented. You were good at learning design or something. I really didn't expect you to go to the police academy. Haha, that's good too!"
Rae didn't speak, and didn't know what to say. She didn't know if they had mutual affinity, or it was coincidence, she and Rae both chose to go to the police school, but they were in different schools.
Seeing Rae stay silent, Reuben laughed at himself. "Because of Ophelia, you don't care about me anymore!"
"There is indeed this reason!" Rae finally said.
The prelude on the CD was a song, this song was not long, maybe only a part of it. This George Benson’s song.
“If I had to live my life without you near me
The days would all be empty
The nights would seem so long
With you I see forever oh so clearly
…”
During the prelude, Rae said again, "At this point, I hope you don't think about something paranoid. You should think about you with Ophelia, don't use her!"
Reuben didn’t speak, and even sang along to the song—
“I might have been in love before
But it never felt this strong
Our dreams are young and we both know
They'll take us where we want to go
Hold me now touch me now
I don't want to live without you
Nothing's gonna change my love for you
…”
Rae felt very embarrassed, but Reuben's voice was very nice and his singing was very affectionate.
The prelude is over, and the real Rae at the age of eighteen came into view, she was so young, and was showing a bright smile.
"Hi! Reuben! I am your Rae. This is a mysterious gift I gave you. Don’t scold me after you see it. I didn’t mean to record it. I accidentally turned on the video recorder that day, so I accidentally photographed the things happened behind. Reuben, I really really love you!"
After speaking, she pouted at the camera and threw a kiss.
