我想起一个以前跟我一起上学的人，那个男生在三年级的时候跟我很要好。

他就住在隔壁，我们经常在一起玩。可是后来我父母搬了家，我也转学了，从此再也没跟他见过面。

Well, I was walking down Nan Jing Dong Lu (Nanjing E. Rd.)during my lunch break thinking about this boy.

我午休时间走南京东路上，心里想到这个男孩。

I have no idea why I was thinking about him.

You got it. Well, he walked up to me and said my name again and then realized it was the boy I had been thinking about, the one from third grade!

你说对了。好啦，他朝我走过来，又叫了一次我的名字。然后我认出来了，他就是我心里想的那个三年级的男孩!

Well, after a while, the waiter brought a new dish to the table, which they all enjoyed.
