“Summer of Grapestone”
On a midsummer afternoon, Su Tang took shelter from the rain in an antique shop at the corner of the alley and accidentally found a string of Grapestone bracelets. The light green beads were crystal clear, like unripe green grapes, and they were slightly cool to the touch, as if they could dispel the heat.
The shop owner was a silver-haired old lady, who smiled and said: “This string of beads is thirty years old. The original owner said that wearing it will always bring good things.”
Su Tang bought it for some reason.
During the interview the next day, she subconsciously rubbed the Grapestone on her wrist, and unexpectedly calmed down and successfully got the offer she wanted.
Later, she always wore it – for the first date, important meetings, and even prenatal checkups in the hospital. Grapestone glowed softly under the light, like small lucky charms.
Many years later, the daughter pointed to the bracelet in the jewelry box and asked: “Mom, what is this?”
Su Tang put it on her with a smile: “This is the magic of summer.”
The cicadas are still chirping outside the window, and the coolness of the grape stone seeps into the pulse, as if the rain thirty years ago has just stopped.
