Chapter 3
"......" Song Mo didn't give any answer to this question, just listened quietly.
He was waiting, waiting for Xiao Xiao to continue, he knew that Xiao Xiao's question didn't need his answer, it might just be the trigger for the story he was going to tell next.
"Why does he like me, I only think of him as a brother, why, why does he think of me like that...... I didn't mean to say those things, I didn't hate him, I didn't think of it...... Why did he do that, and why did he ......"
Xiao Xiao started his story as Song Mo expected, but his emotions were also saying these words at the same time, he suddenly became excited, and his mouth muttered repeating these few whys, as if he was explaining, as if he was struggling, and as if he was looking for an outlet, his voice trembled, with a thick sense of self-blame, resentment, dullness and depression......
Seeing that the water cup in his hand was getting tighter and tighter, and the water splashed out of the cup, splashed onto his hand, and spilled all over the ground, Song Mo hurriedly pulled the cup out of Xiao Xiao's hand and replaced the position of the cup with his hand.
He held Xiao Xiao's trembling hand instead, and his tone was soft that he hadn't even noticed, "Calm down, it's okay......" Song Mo hugged Xiao Xiao's shoulder, trying to calm Xiao Xiao's emotions.
After more than ten minutes, Xiao Xiao's mood slowly stabilized, he let go of Song Mo's hand, broke out of the position of being half-held by Song Mo, leaned back on the chair like a force, and after a while, there was a soft murmur with a choked voice, "My brother jumped off the building......"
Xiao Ze is not his original name, his original name is Xu Ze.
Three years ago, the year after Xiao Xiao's mother abandoned him and his father left, his father Xiao Zhengang remarried, and Xu Ze was the son of his father's remarriage partner.
The woman his father remarried was called Xu Yan, Xu Yan was not a beautiful and delicate woman like his mother, but at a glance, he knew that she was a woman who could live a down-to-earth life.
Xu Yan always wears an orange floral top, sometimes with a pair of black slacks, sometimes with a pair of washed white jeans, which is not earthy, but it is not fashionable either.
The figure that is not tall is a little fat, and the waist-length long hair is always tied low behind the head, and there is often a smile on the face, which is not very beautiful, but it feels very kind.
To be honest, Xiao Xiao did not object to or support his father's remarriage, or it can be said that his father did not give him the opportunity to express his support or opposition.
Xiao Xiao knew that his mother was gone, and it was correct that she abandoned their father and son, maybe because she couldn't stand her unmotivated father anymore, or because she couldn't accept the 9-to-51 day after day, or she couldn't continue to let herself be soaked in this trivial day every day, and then drowned......
Oh, who knows, it's impossible to come back anyway.
But Xiao Xiao endured it for two years after that, and after the ridicule of your mother running away with someone, he began to slowly accept this fact.
Now when Xiao Xiao faces the ridicule of others again, he no longer has the original impulse, he is about to punch and hit people, or cry, or it can be said that no one dares to laugh at him like that in front of him now.
Anyway, he can finally become indifferent in the face of this matter now.
When his dad took a woman and a boy and said to him, "This is your new mother and brother, and we will be a family from now on." Xiao Xiao didn't show much emotion.
Yes, he actually didn't care, even the simple weddings and family banquets they held, Xiao Xiao ran away without a trace, and didn't appear at all.
"Brother, you look so good." Xu Ze lay on the desk and stared at Xiao Xiao who was writing his homework, and his round face looked red and puffed under the light.
Xiao Xiao didn't respond to Xu Ze's praise, he didn't even look at Xu Ze. He was actually disgusted by the fact that someone he didn't know lived in his room, and he didn't like people complimenting him on his looks.
He also knew he was good-looking because he looked like his mother, the one who abandoned him and left.
Seeing that Xiao Xiao didn't pay attention to him, Xu Ze buried his face in his arms with some shame and some anxiety......
Xu Ze is small, according to his age, he can be regarded as quite thin, with a pair of black on his round face, always watery eyes, very painful, although his appearance is not very beautiful, but he can be regarded as a delicate and pleasing child.
At this time, Xu Ze was standing nervously next to the sofa, looking at Xiao Xiao, who was staring at the TV and playing games, and was holding the corner of his clothes a little uneasily.
After standing for a while, he found that Xiao Xiao didn't mean to take the initiative to deal with him, so he mustered up the courage to ask timidly: "Brother, can I borrow your sixth-grade book?" Uncle Xiao said that the textbooks used in the city schools are different from those used to be in my old school......
Xu Ze is a very eye-catching child, maybe this kind of eye is because of the previous living environment.
From Xiao Xiao's attitude towards him in the past few days, Xu Ze sensed that Xiao Xiao might not like him very much. But he had to take an exam to enter the school, although Uncle Xiao said that when he was busy in the past few days, he would take him to the bookstore to buy reference books......
But after Xu Ze listened to Uncle Xiao's words, he was always very uneasy, he was worried that he would cause too much trouble to Uncle Xiao, and he was also worried that Uncle Xiao would dislike his mother because of him, and he didn't want to be a burden to his mother.
However, the content of the school in the city really didn't seem to be the same as the school in their small town before, and he was worried that he would fail the transfer test.
But now there is no one else who can let him borrow books, so Xu Ze can only speak to Xiao Xiao hard.
"The bookcase next to the desk, in the bottom box, find it yourself."
Xiao Xiao replied angrily, he didn't want to pay attention to Xu Ze, but seeing him standing on the side like a quail, trembling, as if he gave him a lot of relief, which made Xiao Xiao extremely upset.
Xiao Xiao is most annoyed by those boys who are very sissy, although Xu Ze can't reach the charm of a sissy, but this cringe, speaking voice like a mosquito, really makes him not like it.
In fact, there is a more important reason why he hates Xu Ze, that is, Xu Ze robbed half of his bedroom, and his mother took up half of his house, but Xiao Xiao can't say this.
"Thank you, brother." Xu Ze listened to Xiao Xiao's words, thanked Xiao Xiao crisply, and happily ran to the bedroom to find textbooks.
But Xiao Xiao was stunned for a second after listening to Xu Ze's brother, and slammed the handle angrily, who the fuck is your brother!
After a while, Xu Ze came out again with an English book in his hand, still standing in the position just now, his voice was still like a mosquito humming, timidly, and asked with careful temptation: "Brother, the content in this English book is not the same as what we learned, I ...... I can't read, can my brother teach me? ”
From the third grade, the primary school in the city has to learn some everyday spoken English, while the primary school in the town only learns some simple English words, so the knowledge points learned are not just a little bit worse.
And Xiao Xiao was working hard at the moment to fight the Yashen Nunnery, which had half a tube of blood left, and when he heard Xu Ze's voice, he turned his head and threw him an eye knife, and the frightened Xu Ze directly took two small steps back.
When Xiao Xiao finished venting his anger at Xu Ze, when he turned his head to look, he saw that on the gray screen of the TV, there were only two big You Lost fonts left, and the Yagami Nunnery who was standing opposite him and proudly posed a provocative posture towards him.
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt very angry, and then looked at Xu Ze next to him, still standing there stunned, motionless and stunned, and a small flame ignited without warning.
Xiao Xiao directly threw the game console controller at Xu Ze, smashed it at Xu Ze's feet, and yelled: "You still have a fucking ...... end"
Xu Ze was shocked by Xiao Xiao's sudden anger, and he didn't know what to do in a panic, so he hurriedly took two steps back.
Xiao Xiao glared at Xu Ze angrily, looking at him still standing there with an unyielding look, only to feel anger rising from his heart, but the last trace of reason left in his heart kept reminding him, hold on, hold back, can't hit Xu Ze, can't hit him, can't fight, can't ......
Xiao Xiao didn't know why he was so angry, he just didn't like it unilaterally, he didn't like this son who suddenly appeared, he didn't know whose family, he chased him every day to call his brother, pestered him endlessly every day, and dragged him to ask questions.
The kind of presence that he couldn't ignore, the room that Xiao Xiaojue was with Xu Ze was so full that he was suffocated, and he could be mad by Xu Ze's every move.
Thinking of this, Xiao Xiao couldn't hold back any longer, stood up with a bang, didn't look at Xu Ze next to him, walked back to the bedroom directly, picked up his schoolbag and went out.
Downstairs, Xiao Xiao faced the door of the unit, I don't know who threw a Coke can there, raised his foot and kicked it, watching the can fly out and fall far away, and heard a heavy bang, only to feel that the fire in his heart was slightly extinguished.
"Damn, it's been a terrible summer!"
Xiao Xiao muttered and looked up at the boss in the sky, the strong light emitted by the sun made his eyes dizzy, he hurriedly lowered his head and slowed down for a while, feeling that after the dizziness had passed, he came back from the incident where he ran out after he was stunned at Xu Ze at home, MD On this hot day, where can he go when he runs out?
I was stunned in front of the door of the unit building for a while, until my mouth was dry, and when I felt that he would be at risk of being roasted if he stayed like this, Xiao Xiao quickly went through all the cooler places he could go to in his mind, and finally decided on the destination, the game hall.
Although he avoided the annoying Xu Ze and came to the air-conditioned game hall, it was not so enjoyable to play.
Xiao Xiao looked at the big screen of the game console, the motorcycle he was driving, the Nth time it was not far from the end point, and when it was overtaken by NPC again, he slapped the front of the car irritably and stopped the game.
Xiao Xiao always thought about the scene when Xu Ze stood motionless with his head down before going out, shouldn't he cry, shouldn't he shake his face too much, and scare that kid like a lamb stupidly, shouldn't he go to his father to sue him......
