Chapter Twenty-Three: The Lonely Child
I crossed my hands behind my head and leaned lazily against the head of the bed. Su Jing next to her clasped her knees with her hands and shrunk into a ball.
"Say something." I turned my head to look at Su Jing, but my eyes involuntarily stayed on the white long legs exposed under her nightgown, and the arc of her calves was really beautiful. "It's okay to say anything, as long as you're not so silent."
Su Jing pursed her lips, her eyes confused.
"Isn't my current appearance very embarrassed and pitiful."
I smiled, "How could you think that." ”
"I was abandoned by my parents, and overnight I became the superfluous one that no one wanted, my father was getting married again, and my mother actually had a home outside all the time. From beginning to end, I was the only one who was kept in the dark, thinking that this was my home, that my parents, and I were still one family. ”
I nodded, indicating that I was listening.
Su Jing closed her eyes, and tears flowed down again. She was still talking slowly.
"On Friday, my mom suddenly told me that they were getting a divorce. I couldn't believe it at first, they had never quarreled, they had always lived so harmoniously, they loved each other, why did they suddenly want to divorce. I thought my mom was joking, but my dad came to see me at school in person, just to tell me that he was going to divorce mom and marry another strange woman. ”
"Dad said that the strange woman was already pregnant with his child and was about to give birth, and he had to give the woman a name and the unborn child a name. I cried and asked him what should I do, but he said, I'm grown up. ”
Su Jing's tears fell big and big, and they hit the bed with a click.
"It turns out that I have grown up. When you grow up, you don't need to care; When I grew up, they didn't love me anymore. Okay, throw me away. ”
"I learned that my father and mother had separated and had a family outside many years ago, just to hide from me and maintain this marriage in name only. Now, they don't even want to continue in disguise. ”
"That Friday, I cried and begged my dad not to divorce my mom. I tried everything I could to keep my dad. I said, I will never spend money indiscriminately in the future, I will never lose my temper again, I will definitely listen to my parents in the future, and I will study hard. Dad said that if I can get into the top 300 in the monthly exam, I won't get divorced. ”
"I naively thought that what my father promised me was true, and if I got into the top 300, they really wouldn't get divorced. But he was still lying to me, and on the second day of the monthly exam, he went through the divorce procedures with his mother. But at that time, I was still working hard in the classroom for every question and every point. ”
Su Jing cried into tears, she trembled terribly, and there was no trace of blood on her face.
She sobbed violently and couldn't speak in full.
I could only silently hug her, use my chest and arms, give her warmth and strength.
"I hate them." Su Jing rested her head on my chest and said word by word.
…………
Su Jing, who was overly sad, was extremely tired, and finally fell asleep in my arms.
"What a lonely child." I looked at her and murmured.
Carefully took out his mobile phone, called his mother, and whispered to her that she was going to the same school tonight to celebrate her classmate's birthday and go back later.
My mother's recent academic performance made me very relieved, and I didn't ask in detail.
Leaning on the head of the solid wood bed, I tried to find the most comfortable position a few times, but I still felt uncomfortable. Afraid of waking Su Jing up, I can only endure it honestly.
Su Jing slept very deeply, for a long time, the door was gently pushed open halfway, it was Aunt Chen who came in, she was not worried about her daughter after all. When she saw Su Jing falling asleep in my arms, she gently led the door out again.
There were no lights, only moonlight shining through the windows, faintly illuminating the outline of everything in the room.
In this drowsy environment, I actually fell asleep.
When I woke up, my limbs were numb. Su Jing was still lying in my arms, but she had already woken up. Staring at me with a pair of big bright eyes.
"When you wake up, get up, numb me." I tried to move my hands and feet, and every time I moved, I felt that my hands and feet were being bitten by thousands of ants, which was itchy and painful, and I was so sad.
Su Jing sat apologetically looking at me, as if she wanted to reach out and rub it for me.
"No, don't touch me, look at your clumsy look." I was afraid that she didn't get started lightly or heavily, so I hurriedly stopped her.
This sentence angered Su Jing, and a slap slapped me on the leg, right in the middle of the sore position, so sad that I almost screamed.
"I was wrong, I was wrong. Miss, it's okay if I'm wrong, raise your hand and spare my life. Seeing that Su Jing was about to start, I quickly admitted my mistake.
Su Jing had a straight face, originally a little angry, but when she saw my exaggerated expression begging for mercy, she wanted to laugh again: "Let you bully me again." But after speaking, her eyes turned red again, and she felt like she was about to cry again.
I really don't know how to provoke her, this girl today is completely made of water, and she cries when she provokes her.
"Stop." I hurriedly made a pause gesture to stop her tears, "Let me stay away from you, you can cry again." I'm afraid of drowning. ”
Su Jing didn't want to cry anymore all of a sudden, her teeth were itchy by my anger and wanted to beat me. I pretended to exaggerate and dodged, and my sore body was moved, and it really hurt so much that I screamed.
I didn't dare to mess with her anymore, and I wanted to wait for this sour energy to pass.
Su Jing leaned over and lay quietly next to me, her arm on her chin.
"Thank you for making me happy." Su Jing looked at me up close and said faintly.
"Don't move, just wait for this numbness to pass."
Su Jing in a gentle state made me very uncomfortable, as soon as this woman was stimulated too much, she would behave strangely.
"Su Jing, I want to talk to you about my thoughts."
I decided to enlighten her.
"Yes, you say." Su Jing nodded to listen.
"Have you ever thought about how your parents feel?"
Su Jing looked at me with a frown.
"Actually, if you think about it, it's not easy for your parents. As you said, they each had their own families many years ago. Obviously, at that time, there was no affection between them. But for you, you also have to live reluctantly together, acting in front of someone you don't love all day long, and at the same time, you have to bear the pressure of your new family. ”
"They are also normal people, and they should also have the right to pursue their own happiness. For you, they have been delayed for too much time. Now that you have grown up, you should also be considerate of your parents and fulfill their respective happiness. ”
I tried hard to persuade her, but she covered her ears.
"Don't say it, I don't want to hear it."
