（第七幀里的女孩）

English Version

Leo found the first photo at a flea market,
tucked inside a box labeled"Misc. Memories – 5 for ￡1".

It was a Polaroid—faded at the corners,
showing a London bookstore front,
and in the left corner, blurred but visible,
a girl with a red scarf, mid-laugh.

He bought five random photos.
Later, at home, while sorting through them,
he froze.

The same girlappeared again.
Different photo, different place—
a park bench this time,
autumn leaves at her feet,
a thermos in hand.

Frame 7.
Always the seventh photo.

He checked again.
In three separate Polaroids from different vendors,
she was always inframe seven.
Not posed.
Not centered.
Just… passing by.
Laughing. Reading. Looking up.

Something about it didn’t feel like coincidence.

He started collecting.
Old Polaroids from secondhand stores, junk boxes, garage sales.
And every time he found a batch—he flipped to the seventh.

More often than not,
she was there.

He gave her a nickname in his notebook:
“7G” — Girl in Frame 7.

A year passed.
He found over 19 photos.
All different cities, all different seasons.
All with her in that fleeting, unnoticed corner.

Then one day, at a photography exhibit in Camden,
he spotted a wall of Polaroids.
He almost walked past—
until his eyes fell on frame 7.

Her.
Red scarf.
Camera in hand.
Lookingdirectly into the lens.

And below it, a small tag:

“To the one who kept finding me. If you’re reading this: Let’s stop passing by. Saturday. 3PM. Regent’s Park, under the iron gazebo.”

Leo stood there for a long moment.
Heart racing.

Saturday came.
3PM.
The park was quiet, golden with late sunlight.

She was there.
No scarf this time—
just a Polaroid camera around her neck,
and a smile that said:
“I’ve been looking for you too.”

中文全文翻譯第七幀里的女孩

利奧在跳蚤市場(chǎng)第一次發(fā)現(xiàn)那張照片，
它藏在一個(gè)標(biāo)著 “雜項(xiàng)回憶——五張一英鎊” 的紙箱中。

那是一張拍立得，邊角泛黃，
畫面中是倫敦某書店的門口，
而左下角——模糊卻清晰地，
有一個(gè)紅圍巾女孩，正笑著經(jīng)過。

他隨手挑了五張。
回家整理時(shí)，
他突然停住了。

同一個(gè)女孩又出現(xiàn)了。
這次背景是公園長(zhǎng)椅，
腳邊滿是秋葉，手握一個(gè)保溫壺。

是第七張。

他再次檢查其他批次的照片——
不同賣家、不同城市，
她總在第七張里。

不是主角，
不是特寫，
只是恰好路過，
在讀書、在笑、在抬頭望天。

他開始留意。
收集更多拍立得——二手店、跳蚤市場(chǎng)、舊紙箱。

幾乎每次，第七幀里，她都在。

他在筆記本中給她起了個(gè)代號(hào)：
“7G”——第七幀的女孩。

一年過去，
他已找到19張她的蹤跡，
城市變換，季節(jié)交替，
而她總是那么不經(jīng)意地出現(xiàn)。

直到某天，在卡姆登的一個(gè)攝影展上，
他在一整面拍立得墻前駐足。

第七幀——她。
紅圍巾，
手持相機(jī)，
這次直視鏡頭。

照片下是一張小卡片：

“寫給那個(gè)一直在尋找我的人。 如果你讀到了這張照片—— 就讓我們不再擦肩而過。 星期六下午三點(diǎn)， 攝政公園，鐵藝涼亭見。”

利奧怔了許久。
心跳加速。

星期六到來。
下午三點(diǎn)。
公園靜靜的，陽光灑滿金黃。

她在那里。
這次沒有圍巾，
只有脖子上的拍立得相機(jī)，
和一個(gè)微笑，仿佛在說：
“我也一直在找你。”
