Chapter 837 Final Farewell
The black coffin lay there quietly, quiet and peaceful, with only the sound of rain surging in the air. The world had never been so quiet.
Jenna thought she was mentally prepared, but watching this scene, her Anne fell asleep forever without a single friend.
This reminds Jenna that in Annie's short life, she spent most of her time in the hospital. Patients, doctors, and nurses were her world. She had no chance to make friends or get to know the outside world. She even There is no chance of leaving the Missouri area.
Things shouldn't be like this. Annie's world shouldn't be just this.
Thinking of this, Jenna felt sad.
Turning her head hastily, Jenna buried her head in Jeff's shoulder to hide her tears.
After the federation finals, she had promised Annie that she would no longer be sad or immersed in the past. She was ready to move on and refused to let sadness overwhelm her until she was suffocated.
She made a commitment.
But today, standing in front of the coffin, she couldn't control it after all.
"Jenna..." Jeff gently patted Jenna on the shoulder and called softly.
Jenna wiped her eyes hurriedly to cover up her embarrassment and panic, "I'm fine. It's fine. Ahem. I'm fine, don't worry."
Jeff, "No, Jenna, look, then...is that Levi?"
Jenna was stunned, "Levi? How is it possible..."
However, before he could finish his words, the subsequent sound got stuck in his throat.
A tall and slender figure, wearing a well-fitting black suit and holding a black umbrella, walked solemnly through the drizzle.
The face was hidden under the umbrella, so it was unclear and impossible to distinguish. Only the broad shoulders and long legs could vaguely reveal the tall and straight figure, and there was no way to identify the real body.
However, this figure easily caught the eye.
near.
Get closer.
The umbrella was raised slightly, and the clear and clear face appeared in front of the eyes, and the hazy drizzle slowly outlined the outline of the ink-like eyebrows and eyes.
That's not who Levi is.
He.
Jenna opened her mouth but no sound came out. She stood there blankly, unable to believe her eyes and her brain couldn't turn around for a moment.
Why does Levi appear here?
After the conference finals and before the Super Bowl, the league has a week of rest and adjustment, so the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams have rest days to allow the players to briefly relax their nerves, but not completely. Relax, the next decisive battle is the focus.
Because of this, players often get together with family and friends, relax a little but not completely, and then return to the team to report and get into preparation mode for the most important game of the year.
Jenna didn't want to delay Levi's time with his family. Anne told her that Levi's parents still worked in New York and had not retired early. They were usually separated from each other, and every vacation they got together was particularly precious.
Jenna also doesn't want to affect the team's preparation rhythm. Including herself, they are all looking forward to the Super Bowl showdown. She believes the same is true for Annie. Annie should also be gearing up in heaven to look forward to the Super Bowl.
Therefore, Jenna did not notify Levi.
but--
Pitter patter, pitter patter.
The sound of raindrops falling on the umbrella gradually approached, and Levi's footsteps stopped not far away. He did not approach rashly and kept a distance.
"Hey Jenna, Jeff."
Li Wei raised his voice to say hello, and several people nearby made rustling noises. It was obvious that they couldn't believe that Li Wei actually appeared in front of them like this.
Levi nodded politely towards them, and then looked at Jenna again. "Sorry for coming uninvited. I hope I didn't disturb the purity of the ceremony."
Jenna waved her hands repeatedly.
"I just..." Levi hesitated slightly, "I just hope to come and say goodbye to Annie. You know, this is the last chance."
Jenna tried to explain the situation and the reason why she did not tell Levi; but the words stayed on her lips for a moment, and finally she swallowed them all.
The reason is no longer important. What is important is that Levi appears here.
"Of course, welcome." Jenna said, "I mean, Annie will be very happy to see you coming, and I should say thank you."
Levi showed a polite smile, "Annie once told me that her biggest regret was not being able to go to school and not being able to make more friends. Even for the funeral, there might not be any friends present."
"So I thought..."
"I know it's a little presumptuous, but hey, I'm Anne's friend and I shouldn't miss the opportunity to say goodbye to Anne."
Levi's voice came quietly through the rain.
Jenna's eyes turned red. She quickly took a deep breath to control herself and showed a big smile, "Of course, of course you are Annie's friend. Thank you for being willing to come and say goodbye to Annie for the last time."
"Thanks."
Thousands of words, all condensed into this sentence.
Levi hesitated slightly and looked at Jenna, "Jenna, actually I'm not the only one here, there are also some Chiefs players who want to come and say goodbye to Anne."
Jenna was stunned, "What else?"
Levi nodded gently, "Jenna, Annie is more than just my friend."
"We understand that this is a private funeral, and you don't want others to disturb you, so if you mind, I am here as a representative to convey my respects and let them go back. We just want to convey our heartfelt feelings."
But the premise is that you don't want to disturb the Gallas family's own time.
After saying that, Li Wei took out his left hand that had been behind his back. He was holding a lily in his hand. The beautiful white lily was covered with thin rain and mist. He stood quietly on the spot, his eyes falling on the coffin. superior.
Jenna was stunned, she didn't expect it at all.
Jenna looked up at Jeff blankly and gave him a questioning look.
Jeff nodded gently, "Annie will like it."
Jenna thought about it seriously, "Of course, if you want it, I think...Annie will be happy. She always likes crowds of people."
Levi responded with a smile, "That's a typical Anne-Galas, right? When we were all so anxious and overwhelmed, she hid beside us and watched us in a hurry, never forgetting the prank."
Involuntarily, Jenna and Jeff both laughed.
At this time, Levi turned to look at the entrance to the cemetery, raised the lily in his left hand high, and waved it left and right to send a signal.
Then, Levi withdrew his gaze and walked to the side of the coffin. His gaze quietly scanned the surface of the coffin. Anne's face was completely invisible now, but at least he was able to say goodbye:
Hey, Annie, we won.
Although the world was quiet, with only the sound of rain surging gently above his eardrums, Levi seemed to be able to hear Anne's energetic cheers, raising his arms high, cheering and jumping to celebrate the victory.
Until exhaustion.
Panting and pale, everyone else around him turned pale with worry, but only Annie looked at them and laughed heartily, "Haha, you should really see your expressions."
So free, so wanton, so lawless.
