Chapter 16: Encounters in the Sky (2)

Yoko's jubilant mood didn't last long, the plane began to jolt violently in the air after passing through the clouds, and she had forgotten the inexplicable joy of reuniting with Hitomi, and nervous tremors and silent prayers followed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Nervous?"

"It's okay..."

Xiao Hitomi's face was full of black lines, and she looked at the little chick next to her who wanted to bury her head in her legs and asked suspiciously, "Is it, then why are you holding me so tightly?" ”

"Ahh

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'm going to hurt you. ”

"It's okay, Sister Yoko, do you have a fear of heights?"

"No, people have done airplanes when they were younger than you..."Yoko raised her head a little proudly and winked at Hitomi, but at this time the plane had another bump, she hurriedly buried her head again, and a muffled voice came: "It's just so uncomfortable, every time I bump, I feel like my heart is about to fly out..."

Hitomi looked at Yoko's ostrich-like posture, a little crying and laughing, and after thinking for a while, she gently put her hand on Yoko's back and rubbed it slowly.

"Uh..." Yoko felt the little boy's small but warm palm against her, and her heart beat faster: "He... What is he doing to take advantage of me? ”

"This little ghost!" Yamao, who had been paying attention to this, was about to pop out his eyes, and wanted to go over and teach Xiao Hitomi a lesson, but he thought that Shuichi Akai behind him might be staring at him fiercely, so he had to close his eyes as if he didn't see it.

"Forget it, it's just a little ghost..."Yamao comforted himself.

Just when Yoko was about to cry out shyly, Hitomi finally spoke slowly: "In my impression, it seems that there is a woman who often comforts me like this, but my movements may not be as gentle as hers." ”

"Huh?" Yoko raised her head and found a trace of loneliness in his eyes: "Is it Hitomi's relative?" ”

"Maybe, but I can't remember." Xiao Hitomi touched his head and said with a wry smile: "I've been injured here, and I've forgotten all about the past." ”

"Ahh I'm sorry! Yoko hurriedly apologized, she didn't expect Hitomi Kotomi to be young and actually experience such a thing.

Hitomi waved her hand and said indifferently: "It's okay, it's just amnesia, and I may remember it in the future." ”

"That's right..."

Although Hitomi said this, Yoko clearly saw that his expression was still a little low, and she didn't know what to say to comfort him for a while.

"Well, are you feeling better now?"

"It's much better, your way is very useful~" Yoko was asked by Hitomi like this, only to feel that Hitomi's warm hand seemed to have magic power, and she had gradually calmed her emotions, and couldn't help but be shy, and asked curiously: "What does it feel like to have amnesia?" I think Hitomi knows everything, isn't amnesia forgotten everything? ”

Xiao Hitomi shook her head and said helplessly: "I can't describe what it feels like, it's as if these things are naturally imprinted in my mind, but I just don't understand where I know these things..."

"That's... What about Hitomi's relatives? Can't remember? ”

"yes, it's just a vague impression. Sometimes I appear in my dreams, but when I wake up, I can't remember what it looks like..."

Xiao Hitomi thought of the illusory figures that appeared in her dreams, some would gently pat their heads, some would carry themselves behind them, and there was a small figure who always liked to burrow into her arms, and at that time, the tip of her nose could always smell a faint fragrance of orchids......

Are those my loved ones?

Seeing Hitomi fall into deep thought, Yoko couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart.

She thought that Hitomi must be a happier child than herself, he was so smart and so good-looking, the adults in the family must be very proud of him. Unlike herself, her father's strictness often makes her breathless, and she often feels inexplicably wronged, and she can't help but lose some temper with her father, thinking that no child is more unfortunate than her......

Ha, what a ridiculous grievance...

Xiao Hitomi is five years younger than herself, but she can no longer feel the warmth of her family, and even a reprimand from her family has become a luxury, so what qualifications do you have to feel wronged?

So, at that moment, Yoko just wanted to give this lonely little boy a warm embrace, just a hug.

Therefore, the girl's arms gently wrapped around the boy's back, hugged him into her arms, and leaned on the boy with a warm body with the girl's body fragrance, which made him inexplicably have the urge to cry.

Such warmth, he seems to be similar, but he is also stunned.

So, tears finally wet the girl's shoulders ...

――――――

"So, that foreign sister is not your sister?"

It was a long time before the two children parted from each other in another jolt of the plane, and their faces were a little rosy.

Yoko had to change the subject, otherwise she suspected that her face was about to drip blood.

Xiao Hitomi quickly wiped away a touch of moisture from the corners of her eyes, nodded and smiled: "Well, she and that fierce big brother are now my guardians." ”

Yoko quietly glanced back at Shuichi Akai, and happened to meet his seemingly "vicious" eyes, and quickly turned her head back: "Eun, it's very fierce at first glance!" ”

"Haha, it's actually okay, he takes good care of me."

"Then you don't plan to go back to Japan when you go to New York?" Yoko hesitated for a moment, pretending to be very casual and asked, "Why don't you come to our house?" My father, though he was very strict with me, must have liked a clever boy like you. ”

"Well... It was so inconvenient that Sister Judy had already arranged a place for me to stay. Noticing the little girl's gradually disappointed expression, Xiao Hitomi hurriedly smiled: "But I can often go to your house to play, I don't have any friends except you and now~"

Yoko immediately became bright: "Eun, I'll be your guide when the time comes!" However, my English is not very good, and I will have to count on you to translate it then. ”

"By the way, I've always wanted to ask you what about Hitomi, why are your eyes so red, is it because you have an eye disease?"

"Nani? I was born with this! Isn't it as cool as writing wheels? ”

"What is a writing wheel?"

"Uh... Actually, I didn't know that such a strange word suddenly popped up in my head..."

"Hee-hee, you're such a weird little brother."

"Hehe, you're such a mouthy big sister."

……

As the boy and girl engage in more and more cheerful conversations, the plane fades into the night.

In countless dreams many years later, the girl still remembers the deep but simple gaze, like the stars in the sky, which accompanied her lonely childhood.

――――――

The flight is getting smoother and the cabin is quieter at night.

In the hallway, a flight attendant is doing his duty, walking past each row of seats to check if their personal belongings have been safely stowed away, or to cover some restless child with a blanket.

The few passengers who were not sleepy, with the help of the faint light, looked at this blurred figure, and couldn't help but feel a little warm in their hearts.

It's just that they can't see the shadows, and the corners of the flight attendant's mouth inadvertently curled up, revealing his truest inner world.

There is no tenderness, only countless hideousness......

―――――― the following non-textual ――――――

Aha... Two more chapters that I said, I missed the appointment again...

It's true that there's a lot going on these days, and there may only be a chapter tomorrow.

But from Monday, I'll try my best to keep two and three, after all, I'm also looking forward to the encounter between Hitomi and His Royal Highness~

Thank you again for your support, I will continue to work hard!
