Chapter 95: The Family (Chapter 2)
Pushing open the door, it was afternoon, and John routinely looked at the Smoville Daily, except that unlike before, he put on reading glasses.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, John lowered the newspaper slightly, revealing his eyes.
Joe walked in front, and John saw that it was Joe, and asked unhurriedly, "How did you think of coming back today?" ”
The tone was a little disgusted.
When he saw Carol behind Joe for the second time, John was stunned for a moment, put down the newspaper, walked to Carol, and wanted to touch Carol's head with his hand, but then he felt bad and turned to touch Carol's face, and said tremblingly: "I'm back!" ”
The voice is gentle and exciting.
Joe felt very unhappy next to him, he felt that he was being treated differently, John changed his mind, obviously he liked himself more when he was a child! I didn't expect to see Carol this time, so excited!
Carol's always smug personality also became squirming at this time, and she replied in a low voice: "I'm back." ”
John tilted his head, looked at Carol's big face, and sighed: "I've grown taller again, and I'm so much taller than me!" ”
"Didn't she all be taller than you when she graduated from high school?" Joe interjected next to him.
"Oh, really? I forgot! John smiled and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back!" ”
John put down his hand, pulled Carol to sit on the couch, and said gently, "You sit down for a while, I'll call Mary, she's in town now, she must be glad to know you're back!" ”
Then he said unceremoniously to Joe, "You might as well pour Carol some drink!" ”
Joe wanted to sit too, but when he heard John's words, he reluctantly went to the kitchen.
…
Joe brought Carol a glass of water.
Watching John slowly walk away, Carol said to Joe in a low voice, "John, he seems to be a little older. ”
Carol's eyes were slightly red.
"yes, six years have passed."
Joe sighed a little, time flies so fast! The last time he came back was half a year ago, and after not seeing him for half a year, the two old men were aging again.
Who can avoid birth, old age, sickness and death?
Joe also asked the two old men if they would be willing to prolong their lives if they had the chance.
At that time, John smiled and said, "How can there be such an opportunity?" Even if there were, we wouldn't!
Life is only wonderful because it is limited, and if I were allowed to live for a few hundred more years, I would be crazy! ”
John persuaded Joe, and then Joe's desire to prolong the lives of the two old men came to an end, and he found a way at that time, since the two old men didn't want to, forget it.
Anyway, it's still a long time, and every time Joe comes back, he will check on the bodies of John and Mary, although they are getting old, but they are still healthy, and it will not be a problem to live another twenty or thirty years, and then they will change their minds, or Joe will change his mind.
In less than half an hour, Mary was back.
In the courtyard, Mary was heard asking John, "Why are you calling me back in such a hurry?" ”
John took Mary's shoulders and pushed her into the house, "You'll know when you get to the living room." ”
John also sold a pass.
When Mary entered the house, she saw Carol and immediately burst into tears, and came over and hugged her tightly.
"It's back!" Mary said the same thing, as the family had said when they first met Carol.
Carol gently patted Mary on the back, helped her wipe away her tears, and whispered, "Hmm." ”
After Mary calmed down, the family finally sat together neatly again.
John stopped reading the newspaper anymore, listened to Carol tell the story of her adventures in the universe, heard the highlights, and slapped his legs.
Joe sat next to John, and at first John patted his leg, patted Joe's leg once, only to find that his hand hurt more and silently patted his leg again.
After five o'clock, Mary got up and went to the kitchen to cook, leaving the three of them to chat on the couch, and John asked Carol with interest what the aliens looked like.
Dinner was sumptuous, and Carol couldn't stop eating Mary's food again.
If she and Joe eat with their bellies open, they can eat for a month without stopping, or they can go without eating for several months, neither of them is normal people!
Jo also loved Mary's cooking, and couldn't stop eating.
Time seems to go back to when they were children, the two began to fight for food, and now Carol is not as good as before, and he can't always grab Joe, and they grabbed a five-five today.
The cutlery became phantoms in their hands, especially after Mary and John finished eating, and the two of them let go of the restrictions, and Mary made a large table of dishes, which were gone in a short time.
John and Mary sat in their chairs and looked at the siblings with a smile, and the family was happy.
Seeing that the food was gone, Mary had to go to the kitchen to make some more, but was stopped by Joe.
"No, the two of us are just addicted, and the demand for food is not that high."
Jo wiped his mouth and said, and Carol also said no, no, so she persuaded Mary.
After dinner, we chatted for a while, until about ten o'clock, when I saw that the two old men began to yawn, and they stopped talking, and went back to their rooms.
Joe and Carol's room was on the second floor, next door to them.
When Carol entered the bedroom, he saw that the room was still the same furnishings, and after it was cleaned, the bedding was neatly folded and smelly. She couldn't hold back anymore and cried out holding the futon.
Mary cleaned Carol's room every day.
The picture that was originally very sensational was interrupted by the sound of Joe's mobile phone taking pictures.
Satisfied, he took back his phone, and Joe sighed that it was fortunate that he suggested that Tony get the phone, otherwise this scene would not have been filmed.
"My phone is so good!" Joe thought to himself.
There weren't many times when Carol shed tears, and Joe remembered only once or twice, but none of them left evidence, and this time, there was evidence.
"What did you do?" Carol wiped her tears and looked at Joe.
Carol, who had just cried, spoke in a fierce tone and had fierce eyes.
Crying in front of Joe, Carol felt very shameless, the last time was before Joe was five years old, Carol didn't know what was going on and cried, Joe was smiling happily at the time, and then Joe, who hadn't woken up yet, was beaten by Carol on the spot.
Now if she can't beat it, looking at Joe's gloating look, Carol wants to go up and slap Joe's face!
Joe smiled and slipped back to his room, the photo must be secretly looked at by himself, or printed out when the time comes, enlarged and hung in the room to enjoy, now say it to make sure that the phone can't be saved.
Late at night.
Joe was still playing on his phone in bed when Carol's voice suddenly came from next door.
"Good night."
Listening to the long-lost good night, Qiao was stunned for a while, put down his phone, and replied in a gentle tone:
"Good Night"
After saying that, Joe decided not to print out the photo of Carol crying tomorrow to save Carol's face!
After a while, Joe also fell asleep, sleeping soundly, with a smile on his face.
