William woke up again, and it was two days later.
When he woke up, he saw that the head teacher, Teacher Li, was guarding him, and said a lot of things to him, the first sentence was to let him be strong.
William was stunned when he heard this sentence, his mind was blank, and he didnt hear what the head teacher said next. He vaguely heard that Teacher Zhang had passed away, and grandma had been cremated, which was uniformly cremated by the government. And his foot, the situation was not good, if he didnt rest well, he might be disabled...
Until the head teacher seemed to mention "Hui Hui", William suddenly woke up.
"Hui Hui! Where is Hui Hui?"
""Dont worry, Hui Hui is taken care of by me."
The head teacher quickly held him down, and William relaxed after hearing this. He said the last words of Teacher Zhang, and he couldnt let her ex-husband take Hui Hui away. He wanted to ask how Hui Hui was, and whether she was looking for her mother, but he didnt dare to ask.
The head teacher let him rest assured, and said a lot of comforting words, but William was still expressionless.
The head teacher also had no way, she still had to go back to school to teach. Before leaving, she said with some reluctance, "William, you... Grandmas urn is in... in the bedside table."
Grandma?
William looked up in a daze, as if he couldnt understand what she was saying.
The head teacher sighed and left. After she left, William hesitated for a long time, but still reached out with trembling hands to open the bedside table, tears welling up in his eyes.
There was indeed a square stone box in the cabinet, with a piece of paper pasted on it, stating the name and age in a formulaic manner, and inlaid with grandmas photo, which was the one on the ID card. It was not well photographed, and grandma had never liked it.
Is this grandma?
William couldnt believe it. He hugged the box in his arms with difficulty. He was very at a loss, and he couldnt figure it out. How could grandma become ashes in a stone box in just two days? Is there a mistake somewhere? Maybe grandma didnt listen to him that day, and she was still out collecting waste. The one in this box is not grandma, right? It might be someone else?
Yes, it should be like this. William nodded, thinking that this is the right way, but tears fell one drop after another on the cold box, crisp and desperate.
Grandma, grandma has passed away, and from now on in this world, he really has no relatives left...
In the next few days, classmates from the class came to see him one after another.
Everyone was in a low mood and was not easy to get along with, but they still pretended that nothing had happened. No one mentioned Teacher Zhang, and they tried their best to talk and joke with him, trying to be relaxed. The same table Guan Xiaoling said that everyone was going to hold a memorial service for Teacher Zhang on the seventh day, and asked him if he would come.
The seventh day is the seventh day after a persons death, and it is also the seventh day for Teacher Zhang and grandma.
William thought about it and nodded.
That day, the monitor and Guan Xiaoling borrowed a wheelchair from the hospital and pushed him over.
The memorial service was held after the evening study, and all the teachers of Class 3 also came.
There was no special arrangement, just a bunch of white chrysanthemums on the platform, and a photo of Teacher Zhang. It was a living photo, and Teacher Zhang was smiling very happily and brilliantly.
After turning off the lights, each student lit a white candle on the table. At first, everyone tried to control their emotions and talked about some interesting things related to Teacher Zhang, but later it gradually became a cry.
Everyone was crying, and everyone was very sad. William was crying in the candlelight, looking at the sad and young faces of his classmates, thinking that such a good teacher was killed by himself.
After the memorial service, William said he wanted to see Elizabeth.
Guan Xiaoling pushed him over, and Zhang Shifangs dormitory was on the first floor. When he was about to arrive, William hesitated.
He asked her to stop, looking at the light on, and a figure was reflected in front of the window, small and thin.
"Why is the light on?"
"Its Hui Hui." The head teacher stood behind him and sighed, "She said she wants to wait for her mother at home. She was told that her mother had passed away, but she seems not to understand. She would go back to the dormitory after having dinner every day, and I would take her back when it was time to rest."
"Teacher Zhang really taught a good daughter. She has been very obedient these days, and she is very obedient except for this point." The head teacher sighed and asked, "William, you have always been the best with her, so why dont you persuade her?"
William shook his head, he hadnt figured out how to face her, and how dare he persuade her.
Moreover, what qualifications does he have to persuade her? He survived, but Teacher Zhang passed away. What if Hui Hui asks: Brother, why are you alive, but my mother died? How should he answer?
Half a month later, the doctor said that William could be discharged.
The head teacher came to pick him up and took him to the resettlement point. William hesitated for a long time and still mustered the courage to ask, "Teacher, how is Hui Hui doing?"
"Im sorry, William, the teacher couldnt keep Hui Hui, Hui Hui was taken away by her father."
William was stunned, and the head teacher quickly explained that Elizabeths biological father, Richard, was too strong, and he was her father, so it was undeniable for him to take away his own daughter. Moreover, she had been to Richards house and saw that the environment was very good, and he was very good to Hui Hui...
William understood that he couldnt blame the head teacher for this, so he asked for the address and said he wanted to go and see.
They sat for a while, and William let the head teacher go and said he could take care of himself.
After the head teacher left, the room was also quiet. William sat there blankly for a long time before he made up his mind to go out with a crutch.
It has been nearly twenty days since the disaster, and Deerfield has returned to its usual calm. Only the broken trees by the road prove that the storm has come.
William went to the supermarket to buy a 36-piece box of Ferrero, which was very expensive. He would never have bought it normally. If grandma knew that such a small box would cost more than a hundred yuan, she would probably be nagging for half a day.
But no one will nag at him in the future, and William holding this box of chocolate that costs hundreds of yuan only felt hot.
He was going to see Elizabeth, and Hui Hui likes to eat chocolate.
William took the bus to see Elizabeth.
Along the way, he held the chocolate tightly, thinking about how to talk to her when he saw Hui Hui. The closer he got to her house, the more scared he became, and he felt ashamed to see her.
After getting off the bus and walking a few steps, he saw three four-story villas standing in a "product" shape, which was very imposing.
William was quite surprised, and Richards environment was much better than he had imagined.
The house price in Deerfield is not expensive, but it takes most people a lifetime of savings to buy a house. Richards family directly circled a large piece of land in the city, which is quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle, and built a large manor. The three villas are hidden in the lush green trees, and the exterior walls of the villas are all marble, which is very low-key, but there is an undeniable luxury.
Richard is so rich?
William was a bit puzzled and saw a big "Deng" character at the gate of the big yard, and vaguely understood that Richard should have remarried.
The Deng family is very famous in Deerfield, and it is the rich man that everyone in the surrounding ten miles has heard of. They do business outside, and they have three daughters. In Deerfield, mentioning the Deng family means that they are rich. These three villas are also called the daughters buildings, and each daughter has one, and some people jokingly call the Deng family the country of daughters.
After ringing the doorbell, someone came to open the door for him, and after asking the purpose, they took him in.
Inside the high wall is a very spacious main road, and several cars are parked along the way. Even if William doesnt understand cars, he recognizes those logos, and they are all very famous luxury cars. There are all kinds of fruit trees and flowers on both sides of the road, just like a park. There is a large and exaggerated fountain in the center, and there are swimming pools, childrens playgrounds, basketball courts, and so on.
The head teacher didnt lie to him, and the environment is really good. William thought that if her dad was good to her, it would be really good.
After thinking about it, the person led him to one of the villas and said, "Here it is, Hui Hui is here."
In fact, he didnt need her to say it, William saw it at a glance.
Elizabeth was sitting in the living room, and when she heard the movement outside, she also turned her head.
She didnt seem to react, staring at him blankly, her mouth opened and closed, no sound came out, and it took a long time before she shouted, "Brother!"
Then she ran over.
Williams eyes turned red as soon as he saw Hui Hui. Brother, she is still willing to call himself brother...
Elizabeth ran over and hugged him. If William hadnt been on crutches, he would have almost fallen over. He was staggered back a few steps by the impact.
She then noticed his crutches and asked, "Brother, whats wrong with you?"
"Its nothing." William struggled to squat down and looked at Hui Hui carefully. She was thin, very thin, her big eyes were sunken, and she looked very distressed.
Elizabeth took him in, and the villa was very large, with a two-story building, and the living room was decorated in a typical local tyrant style. There is an exaggerated home theater, a complete set of mahogany furniture, and a special area has been opened to make a fake mountain and divert water to raise goldfish.
A lot of toys were placed in front of Hui Hui, as well as various imported snacks.
William sat down and asked, "Where is your dad?"
"He... he went out." Elizabeth said lightly, she didnt seem to want to mention her father at all.
For a while, William didnt know what to say, and felt that whatever he said was wrong, and he was sorry for Hui Hui. So he took out the chocolate and said, "Hui Hui, I brought this for you."
Originally, the very luxurious Ferrero for him, in front of a pile of imported snacks placed in the living room, it seemed insignificant.
But Elizabeth took it very preciously, felt it, and asked in a muffled voice, "Is it expensive?"
Then, her eyes were moist.
She pounced over and hugged William, asking with tears in her eyes, "Brother, can you take me to find my mother?"
She cried, her eyes were full of tears: "They say my mother is dead, and say that my mother is a good person, a hero, but I dont want my mother to be a hero. I miss my mother, brother, can you take me to find her?"
"Lets go back to school, lets wait in the dormitory, my mother will come back."
"Brother, okay? Take me back to school, I dont want to stay here."
William couldnt say a word, he wanted to tell Hui Hui that people who die are gone forever and wont come back. But he didnt know how to explain to her what it means to be gone, and why it was gone. He could only hold her and keep saying, "Im sorry, Hui Hui, Im sorry."
"Its all my fault, its my fault that Zhang Shifang died."
They hugged each other and cried very sadly. Williams eyes were red and his tears fell. His eyes were full of pain.
On the second floor, there was a little boy about the same age as Elizabeth standing by the railing, looking at them coldly, snorted coldly, and said contemptuously, "Its just a dead person, crying like this."
He sat down, put his feet out of the railing and swayed back and forth, and he looked very cute, with red lips and white teeth, but his expression was not like a child at all, too indifferent, and his young face showed a bit of meanness.
After a while, Elizabeth calmed down, her eyes were red and swollen, and she choked from time to time.
William gently wiped her tears and asked how she was doing here, and whether she was living well, and whether her father was good to her.
Elizabeth twisted the corner of her clothes, seemingly reluctant to talk, and just vaguely said, "Quite... quite good."
After saying that, she seemed to not want to talk about this topic anymore, and picked up the snacks placed in the living room, saying, "Brother, eat, this is very delicious."
William took it and thought that when he was at school, whatever delicious food the students gave her, she would keep a share for herself. His heart was soft and astringent, and he looked at Hui Hui sadly.
She was dressed up beautifully today, wearing a long-sleeved pink princess gauze skirt, white tights, and a pair of shoes inlaid with pearls on her feet. With her beautiful appearance, she looked like a delicately carved little princess.
If others saw it, they would probably envy the little girls rich material environment, but William looked at Elizabeth sitting on the large mahogany chair, and only felt that the chair was too big and empty, and Hui Hui was too lonely here.
Elizabeths father, Richard, although he was a son-in-law of the Deng family, should not be difficult for the Deng family with their wealth and prestige, and should not be difficult for a little girl, but is Hui Hui really living well here?
"You are really like a little princess now." William said.
Elizabeth just smiled faintly, but there was no emotion in her big eyes.
No, William always felt that something was wrong, Hui Huis usual smile was not like this. When she laughed happily, her eyes would be curved like a crescent moon, and her happiness would overflow.
He looked at her again, the weather was very hot, and he was sweating all over, but Hui Hui was still wearing long sleeves. He asked, "Hui Hui, arent you hot?"
Elizabeth shook her head, but subconsciously pulled the long sleeves down, as if to cover something.
Its really strange, William squatted down and rolled up her sleeves, and took a look, and was almost faint. It was a purple bruise on Elizabeths white and delicate skin, with new injuries and old injuries.
William was scared silly, what... whats going on, was it beaten by Richard?
Zhang Shifang once said that he was irritable and would lose control when he drank alcohol!
Williams eyes turned red, and he grabbed Elizabeths hand involuntarily, and said in a low voice, "Who did this?"
Elizabeth didnt answer, just lowered her head, probably because he was holding too tightly, and tears were welling up in her eyes.
William quickly let go, feeling distressed and angry, and said with guilt, "Im sorry, Hui Hui, Im too anxious. Tell me who did it?"
Elizabeth still didnt speak, just let down her sleeves and whispered, "Brother, dont worry about it."
How could William not worry, he was furious and asked, "Was it your dads new son?"
"Hey, my conscience is clear, I didnt do such a bad thing." The voice came from above, and Deng Songqiao didnt know when he appeared again, standing on the second floor and looking down and said sarcastically, "The one who hit her was her good father, Mr. Richard."
"You dont know, her father is a drunkard, and after drinking, he would go crazy and say that your respected Teacher Zhang divorced him and lost face, and he couldnt hold his head up. He was also pointed out by people wherever he went. He also said that Elizabeth is his own daughter, and he can teach her however he wants, which is natural."
Williams scalp went numb, and he remembered what Teacher Zhang said on her deathbed, that Richard was a madman and would kill Hui Hui.
"You..." he was so angry that he stood up and shouted, "You have seen it all, why didnt you stop it?"
"Whats it to do with me? Besides," Deng Songqiao spread his hands, "Im still a student, Richard is tall and strong, I want to help but I cant, and I might get beaten if Im not careful. I sympathize with her, but I cant do anything about it."
William was so angry that he couldnt speak.
He looked at the shocking bruises and his eyes turned red with blood.
He grabbed Elizabeths hand unconsciously, and said in a low voice, "Lets go to the police station."
Elizabeth didnt move and stood still, shaking her head: "Brother, its useless."
"I advise you not to do these useless things. Elizabeth is not stupid, and she has called the police, but they were all sent away by Richard. The police only thought that Elizabeth was a bear child who was beaten by her father and made a fuss, and they were educated a few words and left." Deng Songqiao continued to say on the second floor, "Its a small matter to educate your own children, and no one will care about it."
Elizabeth looked at William, her expression was numb and resigned beyond her years, and she whispered, "Its useless, brother."
No one would take these things seriously, and even the police said that educating children, everyone will get beaten a bit during the growth process.
A long time ago, before her parents divorced, her father used to beat her mother very fiercely. At that time, her mother also called the police, but it was useless. The police came and just asked a few questions, advised her father to drink less and live a good life, and then left.
Williams eyes were moist, and he didnt know what to say, nor did he know what to do. He instinctively took Elizabeth and said, "Hui Hui, dont stay here, lets go."
Elizabeths eyes brightened, and she was about to follow him.
Deng Songqiao upstairs sneered and said, "Go? Brother, where can you take her? Thats her dad, and he has her custody. And you? You are just a student, and its useless for you to take her away. In a few days, she will still be brought back by her dad."
Elizabeth slowly let go of his hand, looked up, and said with a smile, "Im fine, brother, as long as you come to see me more often."
She was smiling, but William felt heartbroken. He looked at her with red eyes and couldnt stand her smile, so he turned his face away angrily, looking at the luxurious and magnificent room, who would have thought that under the bright and beautiful appearance, it would be so dirty.
Deng Songqiao on the second floor looked at them and said with a smile, "Its really touching, you can rest assured, I will try my best to protect her and not let Richard hit her again. After all, she is my nominal sister, and if something really happens, it would not be good for the reputation of our Deng family."
No one paid attention to him, but Deng Songqiao laughed very happily, and a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. It would be best if something really happened, and let Richard be arrested and executed!
Elizabeth was still softly saying that she was fine, and for a while, William didnt know what to do. He stayed and wanted to confront Richard face to face, warning him not to touch Hui Hui again.
But Richard didnt come back for a long time, and Deng Songqiao came down to have dinner and said, "Dont wait, he must have gone out to drink again!"
It was already late at night, and William could only go back. So he squatted down and said, "Hui Hui, dont worry, your brother will not ignore you."
Elizabeth shook her head and asked, "When will you come to see me again?"
Williams eyes turned red, and he hugged her tightly. The hot tears fell on her shoulder, and he choked, "Im sorry, Hui Hui, its all my fault."
If it werent for him, Teacher Zhang wouldnt have died, and Hui Hui wouldnt have suffered this kind of pain.
As soon as William got back to school, he went to the head teacher.
The head teacher listened and was silent for a long time, saying that she knew the death of relatives was a great blow to him, but she also had to cheer up... William mouthed an agreement, but in his heart, he thought that this was not a solution. He was anxious and uneasy, always worried that Richard would suddenly go crazy when he was not there.
Elizabeth was very happy these days, and she would stand at the door of Dengs house early every day waiting for him. As soon as she saw him, she would be very happy and say, "Brother, you are here."
As if the only thing worth looking forward to in the day was Williams arrival.
William would accompany her, tutor her homework, let her recite texts to himself, and even the parents signature on Elizabeths homework was signed by him.
These things that happened recently were too heavy for both of them. William deliberately asked, "Hui Hui, if the teacher asks who William is, how do you say it, its not the same surname?"
"I say, this is my brother, my best brother." Elizabeth said matter-of-factly.
Best? William smiled bitterly in his heart, how could he deserve the word "best". He couldnt help her, and he couldnt protect her.
After finishing the homework, they would sometimes take a walk in Dengs house.
The weather was very good, and there were gorgeous fire clouds at the edge of the sky, large pieces of burning beautiful colors, and the setting sun reflected Elizabeths smiling face brightly and flawless, and also illuminated the bruises on her forehead. She said it was accidentally bumped, but who knows if it was caused by Richard.
William squatted down and stared at the small blue color and asked, "Does it hurt, Hui Hui?"
"It doesnt hurt." Elizabeth shook her head, afraid that he wouldnt believe it, and said solemnly, "It really doesnt hurt."
She is always so sensible, and William also wanted to try to smile to make her happy, but he felt that it was so difficult to hook the corners of his mouth. He wanted to touch the bruise, but he was afraid of hurting her, and finally blew gently, just like when he fell down as a child, his grandmother held him and blew, and he didnt hurt.
Elizabeth smiled and said, "Brother, it would be nice if you were here all the time."
William didnt speak, just looked at her sadly. Elizabeths eyes turned red suddenly, reached out and hugged him, and choked, "Brother, when you grow up, come and take me away, okay?"
She seemed to have opened the faucet switch, and became the brave Hui Hui of the past, saying that she didnt want to stay in the Deng family, and Deng Songqiao always didnt get along with her, and Deng Wen was also indifferent to her. Even the only relative, her father, didnt care much, and would lose his temper and hit people when he drank... She felt very lonely and felt that she was superfluous and didnt belong here at all.
"But if you go with your brother, you will suffer a lot." William said bitterly.
"What does it matter?" Elizabeth said innocently.
Her eyes were full of unreserved trust, which hurt William, and he was still hesitant. Sometimes he really wanted to take Hui Hui away and protect her, but he was afraid that he would make her suffer.
These days, seeing that he always came to the Deng family to accompany Hui Hui, Richard would sometimes greet him with a smile, sometimes look at him expressionlessly, and more often, he would go upstairs without saying a word, showing impatience.
They didnt want to see him, and they were all enduring, William knew, but he couldnt find a better way, he could only guard Hui Hui clumsily like this. Days passed in fear and anxiety, but he didnt expect that he couldnt protect Hui Hui even like this.
Today, William was a bit late to the Deng family because he was asked by the teacher to help.
Deng Wens villa door was closed tightly, and the servant said that it was too late and there were no visitors. William was about to leave, but he vaguely heard the noise inside.
"Whats going on?"
"Mr. Richard drank a bit today and was unhappy with Elizabeths homework not being done well." The servant said awkwardly.
Alcohol? Williams nerves were tense, Richard is a drunkard who goes crazy after drinking!
He rushed in regardless of the others blocking, and indeed heard the girls cry from the room.
Its Hui Hui!
"Open the door! Open the door!" William knocked on the door frantically.
No one came to open the door, but it seemed that something was thrown against the door, making a loud noise, and there was Richards muddled roar.
"William? Why are you here again! Get out! Get out for me!"
"Richard! Dont hit Hui Hui!"
"My own daughter didnt do her homework well, and I hit her a few times to make her study hard. Whats the matter?"
In the scolding, there was the sound of something being smashed, and Elizabeths frightened crying, crying out again and again——
"Brother, brother!"
"Dad, I was wrong, I will do my homework well..."
William was almost heartbroken, his eyes were red, and his whole body was shaking. He wanted to save her, wanting to break in the door, but the door didnt move.
"Open the door, I beg you, help me open the door." William almost knelt down to the servant.
"Ah, little classmate, dont make it difficult for me. Mr. Richard just drank a bit more, and educating children is a bit impulsive..."
"You also have children, would you educate your children like this? Please, please help Hui Hui..."
The servant was speechless, but still did nothing, looked at him with guilt, and walked away.
No one helped him, everyone knew Richards violent behavior, but they all pretended not to see or hear. William was desperate, so this is the life Hui Hui has been living, and the bruises that appeared on her body from time to time originally came from this.
After making a fuss for most of the night, someone finally said, "If you want to go crazy, go out and be crazy," and the room finally quieted down, and there was no movement, only a slight sobbing sound.
William collapsed outside the door, hating himself for the first time, hating his inability, hating his uselessness.
He stood up, not daring to make a sound. Just now, Richard warned him that if he kept shouting, he would kill Hui Hui. They all seemed to have forgotten that there was a person outside the door, and no one took him seriously. William struggled to get up with his crutches and walked out, looking up at the lights on the second floor, not knowing which one was Hui Huis.
It started to rain, not very heavy, but the drizzle was a bit cold, and the cold seeped into the pores, and goosebumps came up, just like this creepy night, cold.
Elizabeth appeared, standing in front of the window, looking at him sadly. Her lips moved silently, seemingly saying: Brother, go home.
William shook his head gently, and tears flowed out of control.
They didnt dare to make a sound, afraid of waking up the devil who had just subsided, and afraid that he would go crazy again.
It rained all night, and William stood outside all night, never leaving. Later, Elizabeth couldnt support it and fell asleep in front of the window.
William looked at her stupidly, a bit silly. He thought of many things, thinking of Teacher Zhangs last words to him, Zhang Shifang was right, Richard is really a madman. He remembered that grandma always said, one must be grateful, Teacher Zhang saved your life...
He thought of reciting a poem, and shook his head gently, at that time, it was just ordinary.
It was late at night, and William sat down until he was physically exhausted and fell asleep on his knees for a while.
He had a dream, very short, but very beautiful. In the dream, he dreamed that the rain turned Deerfield into a blue ocean, and he became a very big fish, breaking the thin glass and taking Hui Hui away. She became a very small bird, perched on his head.
The ocean is blue and beautiful, and he was also blue in the dream, feeling very light, as if he had grown wings, and could take Hui Hui flying together.
When the dream woke up, William saw that the rain had stopped and the sun had come out, and the sky had cleared up.
William looked at Deng Songqiao, who was picked up by the driver to go to school with his school bag on his back, and Deng Wen, who was sleepy, leaving in a car. It turned out that they were all there last night, but no one said a word, not even to stop it.
They all left, and Elizabeth ran out and said, "Brother, the aunt said my face is not good-looking, so I dont have to go to school today."
The corner of her mouth was broken, and the swelling on her face hadnt completely disappeared, and the finger marks were faintly visible. There were several whip marks on her arm, which had already been treated with medicine.
William reached out and touched her cheek gently, asking, "Does it hurt?"
Elizabeth shook her head.
"Why did your dad hit you last night?"
"He said I didnt do my homework well and made him lose face. He gets very angry when he drinks, and he will hit people." Elizabeth didnt seem to want to talk about this topic, and changed the subject, blaming, "Brother, why didnt you use an umbrella last night, youre all wet."
She urged him to go back, he also had to go to school, William shook his head: "Not going, Ill accompany you today."
Elizabeths eyes brightened, and she hugged him tightly without saying anything.
Elizabeth took William to walk around the Deng family. The Deng family is really very large, just like a manor. In addition to the three villas, there are also various things. There is also a childrens paradise in the style similar to Disney, made into the shape of a castle, with slides, swings, and other things that children like inside.
William watched Elizabeth climb up and down, thinking that if her father was good to her, she would really be like a princess here.
Elizabeth stood on the high slide and smiled at him, screaming and sliding down. William knew clearly that Hui Hui is not happy now. She tried to pretend to be happy, but just wanted to reassure him, so she could only pretend to be happy.
Tired of playing, Elizabeth went to swing. William pushed her, watching her fly up high, and her laughter was clear.
She made enough trouble, and William sat on the swing with her, swaying slowly. He said, "Hui Hui, my brother had a dream last night, and I dreamed that I became a very big fish."
"Wow!" Elizabeths eyes widened, imagining the picture, and asked, "What about me, what am I?"
"You are a little bird sleeping on my head."
William told her about last nights dream, the rain kept falling, and turned Deerfield into a blue ocean. He became a big fish, broke the window, and took her away. She became a very small bird, perched on his head. He kept swimming and swimming, and later swam out of the sea surface, flying into the night sky. The night sky is also blue, and she, sometimes sleeps on his head, sometimes flies beside him...
"Beautiful, I like this dream." Elizabeth listened attentively, and then asked as if she didnt believe it, "Brother, can I really fly?"
"Yes, of course Hui Hui can fly." Williams eyes were moist, "Hui Hui can fly wherever she wants, and fly for as long as she wants."
"Then can I fly to find my mother?" Elizabeth asked again.
William didnt know how to answer, and looked at her with heartache, his eyes were full of sadness.
Elizabeth also felt that her question was silly, and smiled, with a trace of bitterness that didnt match her age in her eyes. She lowered her head: "It would be good if I could really fly."
She spread her arms wide: "I want to fly, fly far away."
There is a desire in her eyes, but she is just an ordinary little girl, and she doesnt have wings.
William squatted down, looked into her eyes, and asked gently, "Hui Hui, do you want to live here?"
Its really very luxurious here, there are drivers for transportation, three meals are prepared, regular family teachers come to teach, and teachers from all over the place are invited to teach her to draw and learn various musical instruments. But Elizabeth was silent for a while, still shaking her head firmly, as if she thought of something, her eyes turned red unconsciously.
She whispered, "Im afraid of my dad."
William reached out and hugged her, saying, "Then lets go, okay?"
Go together to be free big fish, little birds, as free as in the dream, even if we are adrift at sea from now on.
