Chapter 3181 It’s dark
The boy hasn't spoken so much to anyone for a while...
It's not that he doesn't want to.
But... they were unwilling to pay attention to him.
He is also not good at finding topics.
After noticing the indifference of others, he consciously refused to talk to them.
However, he will also feel uncomfortable and lonely.
Especially when he is alone when he is watching other people talking and laughing.
But...
The boy looked at the gray-haired girl with bright eyes.
Like stars in the night sky.
She is different.
She treated him much like...his former friends.
Very casual.
There is no hesitation to speak.
She didn't look at him clearly, but it seemed like she wasn't there.
There was no rush to end the conversation with him.
There was no obscure expression on his face that could not be explained.
All her expressions, words and deeds...are natural and translucent.
……
The boy couldn't help but bubbles of joy bubble up in his heart.
How long had it been since he had such a relaxed communication with someone?
No awkward silences or dry words.
Especially since he felt like he was the only one feeling this bad.
The other person turned around and started talking and laughing with the others.
And he was left where he was...
There is no friend who can be like this... willing to talk and laugh with him.
……
The gray-haired girl blinked.
"Why are you happy again?"
From the moment it saw the boy, the boy looked unhappy.
Why are you happy now?
Tsk tsk.
Human beings are indeed moody and changeable in mood.
The gray-haired girl once again confirmed her impression of humans.
……
"..."
The boy didn't know how to explain it for a while.
His face turned red.
When he expressed his thoughts, he was afraid that the gray-haired girl would laugh at him.
After mumbling for a long time, the boy said firmly, "Thank you... for playing the music for me."
This is what he said from the bottom of his heart.
He was really grateful that the gray-haired girl was willing to play such a beautiful melody for him when his situation was so bad and he felt like he was drowning in obscure emotions.
He was so happy.
It's obviously just a piece of music.
This person even snatched his test paper before...
But he just felt happy.
During this time, he felt isolated from everyone, alone, and alone.
But now, he no longer feels this way.
It was replaced by the long-lost feeling of playing naturally with peers.
……
The sun penetrated the dark clouds and everything became bright.
……
"That's nature."
The gray-haired girl said matter-of-factly.
Not everyone can listen to its performance.
This human being wants to thank it.
……
"Pfft~"
The gray-haired girl's arrogant words made the boy laugh.
The first time he met, uh... how should I say?
A girl who accepts gratitude from others so naturally and even righteously.
But the gray-haired girl not only did not make the boy feel angry.
On the contrary, he felt that the gray-haired girl was not polite to him or trying to keep her distance from him.
The gray-haired girl is very direct and frank.
So much so that sometimes words that are too direct and frank can sound a bit...venomous.
It can also be a little hurtful.
But he knew that the other party had no ill intentions.
There was no mockery in the other person's words.
……
The gray-haired girl also gave him a song...
Is it because you can see that he is in a bad mood?
The boy guessed silently in his heart and was secretly happy.
……
"You can go home."
The gray-haired girl waved.
You’ve already listened to its performance, why are you still here?
It's dark.
It also needs to be cultivated.
……
ah?
The boy was stunned.
He raised his head subconsciously.
Next second-
"Ah!"
The boy yelled.
Suddenly he looked panicked.
I don't know when, it got completely dark.
A few stars dotted the sky.
The light emitted is not very bright.
But magically it doesn't make people feel dim.
But at this time, the boy was not in the mood to appreciate the night sky at all.
His heart was beating fast. My whole body felt like it was about to explode in the next second.
……
"It's late, it's late..."
The boy's lips were trembling.
Has mom gone home already?
That's for sure.
Mom didn’t see him when she came home...
……
"I'm leaving."
After saying these words, the boy hurriedly ran.
"Goodbye."
……
The boys' farewells were heard from a distance, and the gray-haired girl raised her eyebrows slightly.
It tilted its head.
That human didn't say...
What was he going to do with that paper?
……
The boy ran wildly.
The wind howled.
His face hurt a little from the shave.
He didn't care.
The hands at his sides were moving harder and harder.
……
He rushed all the way into the unit building where his home was located.
The speed does not slow down.
Take long strides up the steps.
……
Finally, he arrived at the door of his house.
"Huchi~"
"Huchi~"
The boy gasped loudly.
I ran too hard all the way before.
He had never run so hard in a physical education exam.
At this time, he only felt a dull pain in his chest with every breath he took.
……
Phew~
The boy took a deep breath.
He tried to calm himself down.
There was a moment of blur in front of my eyes.
He wiped it away.
A drop of sweat was thrown to the ground by him.
……
The door that became clear to him again was the door that he was all too familiar with.
It's quiet around here.
Even though he tried hard to control it, his rapid breathing still echoed in the stairwell.
……
He pursed his lips.
I want to prevent the sound from escaping as much as possible.
……
His eyes were unblinking.
The door in front of me is very ordinary.
To him, he was nothing more than a beast with a bloody mouth.
It seemed like he would be swallowed up in the next second.
There was some fear in his heart.
His feet couldn't help but take a step back.
……
Realizing what he had done, the boy's face looked a little unnatural.
But he didn't come forward.
He was hesitating.
No.
He is afraid.
He was afraid of seeing his hysterical mother that day again.
When he thought that he would face such a terrifying mother, his steps moved slightly.
He even had the urge to turn around and run away.
……
Um?
The boy's ears twitched slightly.
It seems...
There are footsteps!
After a few seconds, the boy came to a conclusion.
His heart suddenly tightened.
He didn't want to meet his neighbors.
He didn't want to see the way they looked at him or hear the words they said to him.
Without any time to think, the boy quickly took out the key to the door from his pocket.
……
His parents gave him a key after he went to school.
Because his parents don’t necessarily get off work earlier than he finishes school.
In order to prevent him from being unable to enter the house and waiting at the door, his parents gave him a key.
……
"Click~"
The boy opened the door.
The footsteps became more and more clearly audible.
The boy immediately stepped into the door, turned around and closed the door.
"Bang~"
The boy's heart jumped heavily as the door closed.
Only then did he realize what he had done.
He was stiff.
Be prepared for the storm ahead.
