(Part 1)


Have you ever heard the saying that goldfish only have 7 seconds of memory? What was she thinking for the last second? She said she forgot. Then, she tells you that after a while, she will also forget the question you used to ask.
"Maybe I will forget you, your appearance, your voice, and the way your eyes move. But I will always keep my feeling about you. One random day, when the sun is shining through the water, I see your shadow in the corner. The wave is coming, goodbye."

(Part 2)

No one knows when the saying started to spread about goldfish only having 7 seconds of memory. As we have known each other for such a long time, you should know that is a lie, right? I think the saying may have started from a goldfish who was not being honest with the public. Whenever a fish asked him a question he did not want to answer, he would answer "I forgot".And you know fishes always like to ask questions. As the frequency of saying this sentence increases, this sentence begins to spread in public. That’s why some say 7 seconds, some say 3 seconds.Now you know how the saying comes. And I will always be honest with you.
