Chapter 3506 Bloom
"...Huh?"
The boy unconsciously uttered a syllable from his throat.
Did he wish to recall that memory?
The young man thought the answer would come out of his mouth.
It turned out not to be.
He actually... hesitated.
……
The first half of that memory is like a sweet candy.
The boy thought of the candy his elder brother gave him.
Really sweet.
Very tasty.
It makes people couldn't help but raise the corners of their mouths.
……
But the second half of that memory...
Nothing like candy.
The candy was eaten.
Not a trace of sweetness left him.
And he tried in vain to retain the sweetness.
The result was the opposite.
All he tasted was bitterness.
Like...bitter melon.
He hates eating bitter melon the most.
He didn’t understand why bitter melon became a dish on the table.
……
Also like...garlic.
It was unbearable to shed tears.
Can't stop.
……
Such memories cannot be said to be beautiful.
He almost forgot about it.
Together with those wonderful memories from before.
Because sweet and bitter are mixed together.
He couldn't separate.
Just cut it across the board.
No more.
Compared with sweetness, bitterness is more unbearable.
……
But looking back now, the boy felt differently.
He found that his tolerance for suffering became higher.
Therefore...he couldn't bear to forget those sweet things.
After all, it was one of the few sweet things he felt.
If forgotten, there would be very few parts of his memory that could be called sweet.
……
The young man nodded.
"Hope."
As if he felt that what he said was too simple, the boy added, "I hope to remember."
He could allow himself to think only of those happy memories.
Although he was angry that they left without saying goodbye.
But the eldest sister is such a good person...
Always listen to him quietly...
And make him happy...
He remembered an image that he thought he would never forget.
really.
Sometimes people can't be too self-righteous.
Otherwise...
Basically they will be slapped in the face.
But after thinking about it this time, he will never forget it again.
……
He was crying that day.
He couldn't remember exactly why he was crying.
Maybe it was the indifference and neglect of those two people towards him.
Or...
He remembered something again.
That was in a physical education class...
After the teacher led the whole class to do warm-up exercises, he called for dismissal and asked the students to practice the ball games for the exam according to their own circumstances.
He went to the equipment room and got the basketball by himself.
When passing the basketball court-
He had no intention of practicing on the basketball court.
Because there are too many people.
The basketball hoops have all been divided.
He was too embarrassed to join one of the groups.
Unless the teacher arranges it, he always finds a corner where there are no people to practice by himself.
……
There was a sudden sharp pain in my head.
He covered his head and bent down.
……
"Are you okay?"
"Are you okay?"
"I'm sorry."
……
Amidst the noise, he tried his best to wave his hand.
He's fine.
……
The people surrounding him quickly dispersed.
It wasn't until he reached a secluded place that the boy raised his face.
Revealing some red eyes.
His head still had a slight throbbing pain.
But what makes him even more sad is...
There were obviously many of his classmates nearby at that time.
After he was hit on the head by a ball, no one came to ask about his condition.
At that moment, he only felt embarrassed and embarrassed.
He just wanted to get out of there quickly.
……
There are actually many similar things.
They are all small things that may seem insignificant to many people.
Something that can be laughed off.
But, he couldn't do it. But he is a silent person
Unpleasant emotions accumulate in my heart.
He always felt like he couldn't breathe.
……
The appearance of his eldest sister really gave him a feeling of redemption.
……
Especially that time...
He said he would remember things for a lifetime...
……
Most of the time, the eldest sister just quietly listens to him complaining, crying, and chattering...
Does he feel that he is very unlovable like this?
But he can't control it.
It was as if he was grasping at the last straw.
Talk about yourself.
As long as there is one person by his side.
That's what he thought at the time.
He is also always silent towards others.
So I have accumulated too many things to say in my heart.
If he didn't say it out loud, he felt like he was going to go crazy.
……
The only thing that could interrupt his nagging was his crying.
That was the day.
He is crying.
He seemed to remember what it felt like to be out of breath from crying.
And the tightness in the chest.
……
But he cried very quietly.
He lowered his head and tried to control the shaking of his shoulders.
……
Suddenly, a... bud appeared in his vision blurred by tears?
He froze.
What's this?
He raised his eyes subconsciously.
……
"Look."
The eldest sister squatted in front of him.
The eyebrows are gentle.
There was a hint of mystery in his tone.
……
W-what?
What to see?
The little boy was a little stunned.
He lowered his eyes unconsciously.
The next second...
He froze.
……
The eldest sister's hand gently passed over the green flower buds.
It's like dusting off a flower bud.
Then...
A miracle happened.
……
The flower buds... slowly opened in front of the little boy's eyes.
The petals, as white as mutton-fat white jade, stretch out their bodies.
Outlined by the afterglow of the setting sun, it is framed with a circle of shining gold.
It also completely lit up the light in the child's eyes.
……
So, so beautiful!
The little boy looked surprised.
Especially...
He literally watched the flowers bloom before his eyes.
Not a single thing was missed.
Therefore, in addition to being amazed, he was also greatly shocked.
……
"Give it to you."
The eldest sister handed the flower in her hand towards the child.
……
"Really, really?"
The little boy couldn't help but stumble a little.
He raised his hand to take the flowers from the elder sister's hand, but he hesitated and did not dare to go further.
……
"Of course it's true."
The eldest sister's eyes turned into crescents when she smiled.
The tenderness and clarity in her eyes made the flower that amazed the little boy look dim.
……
The little boy was stunned for a while.
Then, he carefully took the flower from the eldest sister's hand.
The slight trembling of the petals made his heart tremble.
He looked at the flowers in his hand nervously.
I was afraid that if my actions were a little rough, I would cause bad damage to the flower.
……
"Do you like it?"
The eldest sister tilted her head and looked at the little boy.
……
The little boy brought the flower closer.
The fragrant floral fragrance made him feel refreshed.
He took a deep breath.
"...Happy-"
The little boy seemed to realize something and immediately pursed his lips.
He opened his eyes and looked at the flowers in his hand carefully for a while.
Then he opened his mouth.
The voice was much lower than before.
"Like it!"
……
"Are you happy then?"
