Chapter 16: Truth or Anything
All night, I thought in silence. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The wind blew through my thin body and lifted my long silver hair, as if I wanted to blend in, and I enjoyed the moment.
Blades of grass rustle around ten meters away
At that moment, I leaned my face against my clenched legs and knees, remembering what I had experienced since I was a child.
It's been a long time since I've been mad that things didn't go as expected.
Since childhood, I have grown up with many expectations. Whether it's my parents, my sister, or my close friends, there is a certain ideal that they can't achieve on their own, and they always project it on me to fulfill.
I was self-aware and did my best, but still humbly considered myself not a top genius. However, there is the possibility of crossing the boundaries of mortals and entering that world just one step away.
If you think about it, it will surely blossom and bear fruit one day in the future.
A few days before the disaster "Heavenly Beast Heaven" struck, my parents were preparing to go out and entrusted me with taking good care of my younger sister. I was too young to understand that my parents' "care" was not just a simple care, so I decided that I just had to emulate the heroes in the comics. So, with the determination to defend it to the death, I patted my chest and agreed.
After surviving the refugee period a few months after the disaster, and surviving with my sister, I realized that I had accomplished something that even surpassed the scope and meaning of the word "care" for young children.
Even adults want to give up everything in the miserable world, but my little hand is unwilling to let go of the other, thinner little hand, and hold on to it together. Why is that the duty to protect my family? Am I such a great person in my bones?
As I grew up, I learned that I was more afraid of living up to the expectations of others than I was about to die of exhaustion.
Just live on the track that others envisioned and do what they encourage.
I kept saying what I was worried about, what I was worried about, and it was all for myself.
Even though I knew that I was such a lowly person, I remained unchanged and continued to fulfill my duties as if I were the ideal person in people's mouths.
Because that's what makes me feel fulfilled by that.
It makes me very happy.
