The following is an early novella from around 050607 with the phrase "I am old when you were born": "You were born, I am already old." It was a rainy day and I was walking home. The rain was pattering down, soaking the road. I stepped on the slippery road and felt a little cold under my feet. I looked up at the sky and found that it was gloomy under the rain. I remembered that when I was young, I liked to go out and play on this rainy day. At that time, I could run in the alley and feel the moisture of the rain. But now that I've grown up, I don't need to go out on this rainy day anymore. I silently thought that the rain seemed to be getting heavier. I felt my breathing becoming rapid, as if I was about to suffocate. I stopped to find a place to shelter myself from the rain. However, I realized that there was nothing around me to hide. I began to feel afraid that I would get wet. But I also know that I can't give up. I continued to walk forward, hoping to find a place to hide. Finally, I reached the entrance of a park. I found an old man playing chess in a small pavilion. I walked over to watch the old man play chess. "Do you like playing chess?" I asked. The old man looked up at me and smiled. "Yes, I like playing chess. But the weather is always like this now. When it rains, no one wants to go out and play chess." I felt a little emotional when I heard the old man's words. So this was the mark of time. A long time had passed, but the old man's words still made me feel warm. "Actually, I like to go out when it rains. Because at this time, the world has become quieter and people have become more settled." The old man made another move. His chess pieces flew around as if they were telling him something. I could only watch quietly and feel the peace of this world. The rain continued to fall, and I felt a little cold. But I also knew that I had found a place where I could feel warm.
