Chapter 1110 Si and the Child
Can this little human see it?
Thinking about how they got along peacefully these past few days, Si was a little confused.
No screaming, no running away.
This little human cub...isn't he afraid of it?
Seeing the human cub trying to pretend as if nothing had happened, staring almost viciously at the river below with its round eyes, it suddenly felt a little funny.
It slowly withdrew its gaze.
It does not expose the other party's "pretense".
Although I don’t understand why the other party is so close?
But the feeling of having someone to bask in the sun with is... nice.
Since the human cub doesn't want it to know that he can see it, it can just pretend not to know.
It slowly closed its eyes.
With its ears twitching slightly, it heard the sigh of relief coming from the human cub.
It could also hear the rapid beating of the human cub's heart.
"Hoo~"
It puffed out a breath, and the large patches of grass in front of it instantly fell forward, like dominoes, extending to the bottom of the slope.
"Wow~"
The human cub's exclamation made it grin.
……
The days passed like this.
Si would go to that patch of grass and lie down every day.
Human pups don't come every day.
The time of day also varies.
Sometimes the stay is short.
It is very happy.
There is a feeling of waiting for a surprise.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t wait today, there is still tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
It will always wait for the human cub.
……
One night, a huge lightning flashed across the suddenly darkened sky, followed by thunder and thunder.
"Wow~"
The rain was pouring down, and it felt like a menacing attack by thousands of troops.
Si lay under the bridge and looked at the slope not far away.
A hazy mist of water vapor splashed on the green grass.
It was a little regretful. If the rain didn't stop until the next day, then the human cubs probably wouldn't come tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the seventh day.
It has been seven days since it saw a human cub.
The huge figure gave off a somewhat gloomy atmosphere.
……
Si opened his eyes and looked at the dense rain curtain between the sky and the earth.
The rain gradually became lighter.
But it didn't stop.
A faint light shines through behind the gloomy clouds.
It's almost dawn.
Si's eyes slowly lit up.
The rain is going to stop.
……
Si couldn't wait to rush to the slope.
Didn't lie down as usual.
Not worrying about the wet grass from the recent rain.
It just...if the human cub comes...it wants to see it earlier.
……
The sky is getting brighter.
Um?
Si sniffed, and a slight chill filled the air.
It looked up at the sky, and sparse raindrops fell.
It's raining again.
Soon, the raindrops connected in series into a line.
Rain and mist.
Si kept looking up at the sky.
Didn't turn around to hide from the rain.
"Moo~"
The low cry almost drowned out the noisy rain.
……
"Pa-ta~"
There was a slight sound of something falling to the ground.
Startled for a moment, it looked in search of the sound.
But he saw the human cub that he thought would never come standing not far away.
An umbrella fell by his feet, and the rain hitting it made a "puff puff~" sound. The face of the human cub...had a familiar...fearful expression.
Si's body froze.
It knew that it was probably the cry it had just made that scared the human cub.
It lowered its eyes, wondering for a moment whether it should turn around and leave?
The appearance of the human cub made it impossible for him to pretend that he didn't realize that the human cub could see him.
However, soon it won't have to worry about it.
Because the human cub turned around and ran away.
He didn't even bother to pick up the umbrella that fell aside.
Looking at the staggering figure that quickly disappeared into the rain and fog, I grinned and ran really awkwardly.
It would be terrible if he fell down.
Human cubs will cry.
……
It still remembered that among the human cubs that it had seen turning around and running away in the past, some of them had jumped to the ground with their left foot and right foot before running a few steps, and fell to the ground with a "snap".
At that time, the human cub cried so much that it was earth-shattering.
It couldn't help but wonder, it was just a fall. Is it really that painful?
However, out of the corner of its eye, it caught sight of the human cub's broken and bleeding palms and elbows, and it realized that human cubs were just so fragile.
It was afraid that with one palm strike, the human cub would be gone.
No wonder human cubs are so scared when they see it.
Si felt quite a bit emotional.
……
Si stood there in a daze for a while.
The rain plopped on it, making a crisp sound.
It sighed quietly.
It seems that it will be the only one to bask in the sun again.
It thought for a while and brought the umbrella that the human cub had dropped back to the bottom of the bridge.
If it is left there, by the time the little human cub remembers that he has lost his umbrella and comes back to look for it, the umbrella will probably be blown away by the wind.
However, I was stunned for a moment, wondering if that human cub would come here again?
……
The next day, the sky was clear.
It was still raining sparsely during the night.
The sun was shining brightly by now.
Si lay down on the grass.
A navy blue open umbrella lay upside down beside it.
Si didn't know how to put the umbrella away.
Looking at his hooves, he was worried that he would break the human cub's umbrella if he tried.
So, let the umbrella remain as it is.
……
Si's ears twitched.
It heard approaching footsteps.
An extremely familiar feeling.
This is...
It tilted its head and saw the human cub standing beside it with his head lowered.
Although it was further away than before, the human cub sat down next to it again.
It was a little stunned.
This is an outcome it never imagined.
The human cub looked towards the river below again.
His face was tense and serious.
……
Si withdrew his gaze.
The sun was shining warmly on my body, which was very comfortable.
The corners of its mouth couldn't help but grin.
But he quickly pursed his lips.
The teeth in its mouth would frighten human cubs.
Although the human cub hardly looked in its direction.
Si actually doesn’t quite understand. Yesterday, the human cub was so frightened that he ran away, so why today...
Ah, yes, umbrella!
Si's eyes lit up.
It gently pushed the umbrella next to it in the direction of the human cub.
The human cub has always avoided meeting its gaze, either lowering its head or looking at the river.
No wonder he didn't find the umbrella next to him.
Although it deliberately moved lightly, seeing the human cub looking like it was about to jump up, it thought, it still scared the human cub, right?
What about this time?
Is he running away again?
Si also turned his head and looked at the river below.
The sound of water is gurgling, the water surface is clear and sparkling.
It can feel the eyes of human cubs on it.
