Chapter Seventy-Five: A Smile Before Death
A busy beep rang in Akita's ears, and during the few seconds when no one answered the phone, Akita's heart was tangled, and he could feel the pounding heartbeat in his chest.
Maybe she's resting at this point...
Akita muttered in his heart, his fingers already sliding to the hang-up position. At this moment, the other end of the phone was suddenly answered, and before Akita could react, a childish child's voice had already sounded.
"Hey, hello, who are you?"
Hearing this voice, Akita was stunned, subconsciously looked at PMT, and found that the number he dialed was not wrong, but the person he didn't want to connect to was not Zhizhi, which made Akita suddenly overwhelmed.
Suddenly, Zhizhi's stern voice came from the other end of the phone: "Stinky boy, what are you going to do again? ”
The immature children's voice let out a series of playful laughter: "How can there be, it was connected by itself, speaking of the second sister, who is the 'reliable Tian Xiaopang'?"
Zhizhi snorted angrily, "I dare to say that you didn't move, see if I don't smash your ass!" Then there was a child's excited scream on the other end of the phone.
Listening to the mess on the other side of the phone, Akita couldn't help but have a smile on his face, and an inexplicable warm emotion rose in his heart.
After a moment of fussing, Zhizhi seemed to have recaptured the PMT, and hid in a quieter place, breathing a little heavily, and said, "I'm sorry to answer the phone so late." ”
Akita shook his head with a smile and said, "Where, it's me who is too abrupt and bothering you so late." ”
Zhizhi hurriedly said: "Where, I haven't rested yet, that is my brother just now, the stinky boy is yelling that he is hungry in the middle of the night, and I am making pasta for him." ”
Akita smiled and said, "Is that the little sesame you mentioned earlier?" haha, I've never seen him before. ”
Zhizhi said: "It's just a stinky boy, you will definitely be annoyed if you see him." Although he said this, his words were still full of a kind of doting.
Akita listened to Shiba's voice, with a smile on his face, and his heart was unusually warm. At this moment, Akita feels the beauty of life. In this momentary time, he can let go of all the baggage on his shoulders, the discordant family, the death of his friends, the changes in his body, the dilemma, all the difficulties seem to have nothing to do with him.
Listening to the silence over there, Zhizhi seemed to feel the strangeness over there, and couldn't help but snort softly Akita, Akita heard the words, and subconsciously blurted out: "Zhizhi, I miss you." ”
As soon as these words came out, the two immediately fell into silence. Akita felt a stir in his chest, and a strong feeling of regret welled up in his heart, he really couldn't think of why he would say what he just said, the words of his brain spit out Akita's heart, but he didn't want this secret in his heart to be leaked directly to the person he didn't want to know.
Zhizhi was also stunned by Akita's sudden words, she didn't know what Akita's sudden confession meant, and when she said that she missed herself on the phone in the middle of the night, could it be that she was expressing her thoughts in disguise? Isn't this too hasty? Thinking of this, Zhizhi's face became a little red.
Just when the two of them were at a stalemate, they suddenly heard the sesame seeds in the room shouting loudly: "Second sister, is something mush?"
When Zhizhi heard this, she suddenly realized that she was still cooking in the kitchen, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen with a scream, only to find that the pasta in the pot had become a mess.
After some scrambling to save the pot, Zhizhi finally stopped the pot from emitting billowing black smoke, but when she looked at the kitchen, it had become a mess.
"Phew, thank goodness, nothing happened. Zhizhi sighed.
Although I didn't see the scene, Akita could imagine Shiba's embarrassed appearance from the sound of ping-pong one after another, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Still laughing?!, I blame you. Zhizhi pursed her lips and complained to Akita, a pair of watery eyes already widened.
Akita smiled: "It's all my fault to blame me." Anyway, I haven't seen each other for a long time, I miss you, and I have time to come out and have a meal together. ”
"Well, okay. Zhizhi agreed, and just like that, the atmosphere that was still full of silence and embarrassment just now was dissolved.
Zhizhi leaned her body against the refrigerator, feeling the slightest coolness coming from the heavy cabinet door and said, "I tried to contact you two days ago, but you haven't been able to get through, is something going on?" Zhizhi expressed it very tactfully, but Akita knew that she was worried about a terrible accident in her body.
Akita said indifferently: "I've not been in a good mood lately, so I went out for a trip some time ago to relax my body and mind." ”
Zhizhi thought it was true when she heard this: "That's great, you don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's best to relax yourself." ”
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Akita's mouth, but he still hummed heartily in agreement.
The sky outside the window was getting darker and darker, and the night sky was unlit, and the roar of rolling thunder could be heard from the distant sky.
From the other end of the PMT's phone, Akita could also hear the faint sound of thunder, and apparently the sound of thunder could also be heard from where Lei Zhizhi was. A warm emotion is once again born in Akita's heart, and through this small detail, Akita can feel that he and Shiba-shiba are living under the same sky.
"What do you think about the future?" Akita asked Shiba suddenly, and Shiba fell into a brief contemplation in the face of what seemed serious and casual.
"I was supposed to die. Zhizhi said in a low voice, Akita thought that Zhizhi was referring to the time when he was in distress with him in the laser stadium, but what Zhizhi said also included an incident of encountering Akame Sayuri in the rain alley.
"When life is about to leave, all I hope is to see the light of tomorrow and that's it. With a sigh, Zhizhi continued: "Thanks to the favor of God, I survived in the end. In the face of the light day after day, my heart does not have too much worship and excitement, in that dreamlike life is time, I only feel that I should spend and enjoy every minute and every second after that. ”
Zhizhi raised her head, leaned her head on the refrigerator cabinets and said: "Every day is made of hope, so I hope to live every day simply and ordinarily, maybe one day in the future I will finally usher in my own death, but I hope that at the moment when I am about to die, when I think of the time I once lived, there is a smile on the corner of my mouth." ”
