"Bang!"

Evan slammed the door shut, the key was inserted, and with a twist, the body trembled slightly, the engine started, and the lights lit up.

Before the car started, Evan looked to the right and saw a box decorated with streamers in the passenger seat.

Evan nodded, fine, nothing was forgotten, he slowly stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel, and the Model 91 drove out of the parking lot under his control.

Evan concentrated, although he had driven this car a few times, and his driving skills from later generations were still there, but the front of this car was too long, and he was not used to this kind of vision.

On the other side, the Christmas performance held in the church came to a successful conclusion, and "Sylvia" received warm applause.

When the performance ended, the audience dispersed, and when they returned home one after another, it was already past nine o'clock.

Instead of going home with her family, Cairol found an excuse to celebrate her friends and went backstage to the makeshift stage.

In fact, this is not an excuse, because her friend Audrey is indeed backstage on stage.

The show was over, and Cairol was a girl, so she easily went backstage.

Because it is not a professional theater, the backstage layout is temporary and messy.

Kai Luo Er is not the only outsider, many of the ballet performances are children from the nearby community, and there are many anxious relatives who come backstage before Kai Luoer and praise their children for being amazing.

Kairol looked left and right, looking for Audrey. A dancer in a dance costume ran by, carefully out of the way.

There wasn't much backstage space, and Kairol quickly found Audrey.

Her ballet costume had not yet been changed, and she was wearing a warm coat, and she was talking to an old gentleman in a tuxedo suit. The old man had a cane in one hand and a hat in the other, and the top of his head was bare, glittering in the light of incandescent lamps.

There are two other people by Audrey's side, one is a lady, wearing a long black dress with a shawl on her shoulders, not young but maintaining a good figure. This person is known to Kellore, and it is Lady Selena from the dance studio.

The other was a gentleman, well-dressed, but his face was tired, and he seemed to have been very tired lately. This person Kairol didn't recognize, but just looking at the way Audrey looked at him from time to time during the conversation, she guessed that this person must have a lot to do with Audrey.

Most likely her father.

Kairol did not rush forward, but waited not far away.

I didn't expect her to wait for more than ten minutes.

Kairol couldn't help but get anxious, thinking to himself that someone shouldn't wait.

Therefore, when she saw the old man and Audrey hugging each other cordially, signaling that their exchange was over, Kairol immediately ran to Evan.

"Hi Audrey!"

"Hey, Kairol, aren't you gone yet?"

"Of course, we've been waiting to celebrate you, can you come with me?" said Cairol, holding Audrey's wrist with one hand.

"Lady Selena, and ......" Cairoll looked at Selena and the unknown man eagerly, and asked, "Can we leave first?"

Selena knew Kairol and thought it was Audrey's group of friends who had an event, so she smiled and nodded.

The man, as Cairol had guessed, was Audrey's father, Joseph Ruston. He had heard the name Cairol from Audrey, her new friend. The friends celebrated together, and Joseph naturally wouldn't stop him, so he smiled and nodded to Kelloll and said, "Of course, please take care of yourself!"

With permission, Cairol couldn't help but pick up Audrey and leave.

"Wait, don't pull me, Kairol, where are we going?"

"Don't worry, you'll find out later. ”

"Do you have any surprises in store?"

To Audrey's question, Cairol just smiled and didn't answer.

Soon, under the "tug" of Kairol, the two came to a certain place in the church.

It was a small house, and Audrey was unfamiliar with this church, and if she came often, she would know that it was a confessional.

Kairol's hand didn't know when to let go, and Audrey walked in front alone.

It was pitch black in the room, and Audrey asked, "What's in there?"

Kairol repeated, "You'll find out in a minute." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a pleasant melody suddenly sounded in the room.

It was a tune that Audrey had never heard before.

The monotonous tone makes the music pure and pleasant, but at the same time it implies a hint of sadness.

It's called "With You".

Kairol did not enter the house, and silently closed the door.

The room was completely dark, but Audrey did not panic in the slightest, but looked at the place where the voice sounded.

I saw a puppet shrouded in a faint fluorescence appear in Audrey's field of vision. The doll is about 10 centimeters tall and is a young girl in a white tutu. It is slowly swirled to the accompaniment of the melody.

Seeing the doll, Audrey's eyes widened with a look of surprise.

"Smack!"

As the lights turned on, a man suddenly appeared in front of Audrey. He held a box in both hands, and above it was the whirling ballerina.

It's a music box.

Holding him was Evan.

"Merry Christmas!" Evan took a small step to close the distance between himself and Audrey, and put the music box within her reach, "For you!"

"Evan!" Seeing that it was Evan, Audrey cried out, "Why...... You're not ......."

Audrey was incoherent and didn't know where to put her hands.

He gave me a gift, and I didn't accept it......

Audrey was hesitating, but Evan suddenly took her hand and put the music box into her hand almost stiffly.

"Audrey, do you like it or not?"

Evan asked with a smile.

Audrey held the music box, glanced at Evan with a wry smile, and said with disgust: "How can there be such a thing." ”

"First I let people go, and now I force them to give gifts. Do you think I'm the kind of woman who is easily moved by material things?"

"Of course not!" Evan shook his head, "Audrey, it's my fault that I didn't keep my promise. ”

"This music box is just my apology, I hope you don't get me wrong. ”

"Don't you think this song is good?"

Audrey lowered her head, looked at the doll that was almost exactly like herself, and nodded, "It's really good." ”

"Want to know its name?"

Audrey looked up at Evan, anticipation rising in her heart, but she bit her lip and didn't ask.

Evan and Audrey looked at each other and said leisurely, "It's called "With You." ”

As he spoke, Evan took out a small rectangular box out of nowhere, opened it and put it in front of Audrey, saying, "This is my Christmas present, I hope you don't dislike it!"

Inside the box is a boy-shaped doll, with a face on the front that bears a seven-point resemblance to Evan.

Audrey looked at the doll, then at the music box in her hand. At this time, she realized that the puppets on the music box should have two.

Audrey's heart moved, her eyes were shining, she took the box, looked at Evan and said emotionally: "Thank you, I like it very much!"

At this moment, Kairol, who was outside the door, suddenly shouted loudly: "Oh my God, it's snowing!"

“ Merry Christmas！”
