Chapter 19: The Boy and His Sister

Once upon a time, there was a little boy who had a lovely younger sister. Every time he takes his sister out to play, he always receives a lot of praise and praise, which makes him feel very happy. He had the impression that his parents were always arguing, and after the quarrel, they started fighting. Whenever his parents quarreled, he took his sister out to play because he didn't want her to be hurt, both physically and psychologically.

He loved his sister as much as his sister loved him so much, and he felt that he was happiest when he was with her.

But God is a very good-natured old man, and he will not let some people be happy forever. When he was twelve years old and his sister was eight years old, his mother finally couldn't bear this life anymore, threw down a divorce agreement, and never returned.

That day, he and his sister cried, not because of their mother's departure, but because of their father's beating and scolding. The sturdy man vented all the anger in his heart, and waved his belt with all his might. The boy held his sister in his arms, and the belt pumped against him with a crisp and loud sound. He cried, but he didn't say a word.

My sister also cried, and she cried loudly: "Dad, don't beat my brother anymore!" Hurt! The man didn't stop, he roared, "It hurts!? Do you know how much pain I have!? Cry! Cry out loud! If you can get your mother back to cry, I won't beat you!" ”

The boy cried while wiping his sister's tears.

I don't know how long it took, but the man got tired. He threw down his belt, sat down on the ground, and howled like a child. The younger sister was taken aback when she saw her father sitting on the ground and crying, and her body moved and was about to step forward, but she was held down by her brother. She looked at her brother, but found that her brother looked at the crying man in front of him coldly and was unmoved.

The man hadn't beaten them since that time, but fell in love with drinking, lost his job for it, and drank heavily at home all day long. When you really don't have any money, you go out and get a temporary job for some money.

The boy and his sister were about to pay the tuition, and the man rummaged through the cabinets, looked for the boxes, fished out of his pockets, and scraped together enough for one person's tuition. The boy thought about it and dropped out of school.

My sister started school, and the boy entered the factory. He was underage, so he had to go to a private factory. The salary is very low, but it includes food and housing. He didn't spend a penny except for daily necessities, and his three-month salary was enough to pay his sister's tuition for one semester.

Gradually, the younger sister grew up and went to junior high school, and the boy also grew up and became a strong young man. His salary is higher than before, but it's still low. He felt that he had changed, he had learned to smoke, he had learned to drink, and he had learned to talk to women. He felt that his father had also changed, he still loved to drink, but from a strong man to a bad old man. Occasionally, he would come home and bring him some supplements, but neither of them would say a word.

He felt that his sister had changed too. His factory is not very far from his sister's school, half an hour away by car. When his sister was in junior high school, he took a half-hour bus ride every Sunday to see her. But I don't know when my sister started asking him to come to him less. He didn't understand and asked his sister why, but she didn't say.

This day is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the boss is very kind and gives everyone in the factory a box of moon cakes. He was very happy, he wanted to give this box of mooncakes to his sister to eat, and he wanted his sister to share his joy. So he took another half an hour in the car to his sister's school.

Before school ended, he was waiting in the wind. The owner of the commissary next to him saw him and said with a smile, "Come and see my sister again?" He also smiled, took out the mooncakes to show him, and gave them to his sister! A look of pride.

After school, students flocked out. He craned his neck and searched the crowd for his sister. He suddenly laughed, and he saw his sister and a few girls walking out of the school gate, and his sister was smiling happily.

He trotted over and shouted his sister's nickname. When my sister saw him, her face changed, and she was still smiling just now, but it was cloudy in a blink of an eye. He hesitated, he didn't know why his sister was like this. The girl next to my sister asked my sister, is this person looking for you? It's so dirty.

He stopped and looked at his clothes. Because I was in a hurry to see my sister, I came in my work clothes, which were covered with stains. He suddenly spoke, I am your brother's friend, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, he can't come to see you if he has something, so he bought you a box of mooncakes and asked me to bring them, and he also said, I wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival.

The girl was stunned for a moment, took the moon cake, and said thank you.

He was suddenly sad, but he smiled goodbye to his sister. Next time, I'll be sure to clean up and come to see my sister! That's what he thought.

He returned to the factory and continued to smoke, drink, and talk about women, the only thing that was different from usual was that he hadn't seen his sister for a long time. The co-worker asked him, why don't you go to see your sister? He took a puff of his cigarette, squinted his eyes and said, "It's your business." It caused a burst of laughter and scolding from the workers.

When I saw my sister again, it was already the New Year. The factory took annual leave, and he returned home. He hadn't seen his sister for a few months, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

When he saw his sister, he stretched out his hands to hug her, but he only got a faint message from his sister, "I'm back." The man took the wine and tonic from his hand and didn't say a word.

People outside were setting off firecrackers, he remembered that when he was a child, he took his sister out to play during the New Year, and the neighbor's child threw a firecracker at his sister's feet, which scared his sister into tears, he didn't say a word, rushed up and fought with the child, and later it almost escalated into a brawl between two adults.

He wanted to take his sister to set off firecrackers, but her sister frowned and said, "It's naïve."

This year was the saddest he had ever had. After the New Year, he returned to the factory, and he didn't understand why his sister had become like this. At that time, it was just popular to surf the Internet, he learned to surf the Internet, he asked people on the Internet, and they told him that this was called the rebellious period.

He wondered why he didn't have a rebellious period, and when he thought about it later, it turned out that he had already had it. That time, I endured my father's beating and didn't say a word, and watched my father sit on the ground and cry with cold eyes, isn't it a sign of rebellion.

I want to understand my sister, he thought, I'm going to send her warmth. So he took half a day off, cleaned himself up, put on the new clothes he bought for the New Year, took an hour's car ride, came to Xinhua Bookstore, and bought a copy of "Chicken Soup for the Soul". My sister will definitely feel warm after watching "Chicken Soup for the Soul", he thinks so.

He took another half hour to his sister's school. It's still early, and school is still a long way off. The owner of the commissary greeted him, he hadn't been here for a long time. He smiled and nodded, busy.

Winter had not yet passed, and the cold wind blew on his face like a knife. The commissary owner called him in to escape the cold, and he shook his head, he was afraid that he would miss it with his sister. He couldn't stand the cold, so he took "Chicken Soup for the Soul" into his arms and ran around the school gate, round and round, and the commissary owner shook his head.

When school finally ended, he gasped and stopped running. He touched the book, already warm from his body heat. He stretched his neck out and searched for his sister in the crowd.

See, see! She saw her sister, and her sister was smiling happily, but he didn't understand why her sister wasn't smiling so happily in front of her. He was about to step forward, but he saw the boy next to his sister.

The boy's hair was so long that it was almost braided. He saw the boy's hand, and slowly, slowly touched his sister's hand.

He was suddenly angry, and he rushed up and knocked the boy down with one punch. The younger sister let out a scream, and the crowd rioted. What are you doing!!? Why are you hitting someone!? The younger sister yelled at him, and hurriedly squatted down to help the boy. He was stunned for a moment, pointed to the boy and said, he ...... He takes your hand.

So what!? My sister's eyes are red, I like to be held by him, can't I!? Why are you so annoying? You're just my brother, not my dad! Why do you care so much?

He shook his body and stayed there. He didn't expect his beloved sister to say these words, which were like a cold and piercing knife, violently piercing his heart.

The boy was helped up by his sister, and then, suddenly, punched him in the face. He didn't stand firmly, and suddenly fell, and the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" in his arms fell to the ground.

He lay on the ground, staring blankly at the sky.

My sister has changed, really changed.
