Chapter XXXVIII
Zuo Xiao frowned when he heard this, thinking that if it wasn't for the coffee two days ago, everything was fine, why did he get sick now?
Tao Tao was so anxious that she didn't see Zuo Xiao by her side. She put her hands on the table at the front desk, her face anxious, as if she wanted to see coffee right away.
The front desk first looked at the computer, as if to confirm the message that Tao Tao said. After confirming the good news, the front desk frowned, looked at the person in front of him and said, "Yes, your pet is still in the observation room here, do you want to go with me?" β
Momo nodded.
As soon as she turned around, she finally saw Zuo Xiao.
Maybe it's been too long to forcibly control your emotions, and suddenly it's hard to see an acquaintance, and Tao Tao can't help it at all. The taut string in my brain was released all of a sudden, and it was an unspeakable grievance.
"Sister Xiao!" Tao Tao stepped forward and hugged Zuo Xiao for a while, which made Zuo Xiao cry.
What's going on? Although Zuo Xiao had doubts in her heart, she still calmly patted her shoulder and kept whispering comforting words such as "Okay, it's okay".
Although Zuo Xiao didn't know what was going on here, it would be good if such behavior could bring a little comfort to the other party.
"It's fine." Zuo Xiao said as softly as possible. "Where's your boyfriend? Haven't come yet? β
"He's on his way here, but Coffee is my dog since I was a kid anyway, so it's useless for him to come."
As she spoke, Momo was about to cry again.
Coffee is the dog she raised since she was a child, and she has followed her since she was a child and whenever she was a child. Now Coffee is alone in the observation room, and she is afraid to face it. Who knows if this time is gone, will you see life and death?
Tao Tao was scared, for the first time in so many years, she was afraid.
She held Zuo Xiao's hand and said in a crying voice: "Sister Xiao, can you accompany me to have a look?" Only...... You just wait for me at the door, I really don't dare to go alone, I'm really afraid. β
Zuo Xiao can understand such a mood, the second fool now lives and dies in the next ward, and she is busy going back to the company, whose heart is not in a ball?
She frowned a little embarrassed, she could have used some reasons casually to say nothing at this time. In her memory, Peach and Coffee have always been inseparable, as if they have never been separated.
When one day the two are forcibly separated because of time or other unstoppable factors, no matter who you are, you will be afraid, right?
"Okay, I'll take a look with you." She spoke. "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."
"Hmm."
Tao Tao and Zuo Xiao followed the front desk to the observation room, Zuo Xiao passed by the doctor's office, and saw that several nurses were pressing on the second fool and were examining it, and she was also nervous.
Two silly ...... Shouldn't anything? Although she thought about this in her heart, she was always worried that she couldn't speak.
At this moment, it was as if all the problems were coming towards me. Work, life, etc., a pair of invisible hands just wanted to tear her in half, and there was no politeness at all.
Just as the two of them were about to walk to the observation room, the doctor of the second fool suddenly rushed out of the office with the second fool in his arms! While running wildly, he shouted, "Get out of the way!" Leave me a place in the observation room! β
Seeing this scene, Zuo Xiao became even more nervous. Could it be that something happened to the second fool?
Her steps unconsciously quickened, and she subconsciously raised her head to see the doctor's situation. But when the electric door of the observation room was closed, there was nothing in an instant.
The nurse said with some embarrassment: "The doctor is also checking on Coffee and Ersil now, or are they both sitting at the door and waiting?" β
No matter how anxious people are, they can't mess with the rules. Tao Tao was reluctant in her heart, but she still had to agree. She stood on tiptoe and looked out the door at the observation room, blurry and unable to see anything.
The two men were left outside the observation room.
At this moment, the atmosphere was a lot more tense, but Zuo Xiao still looked calm and light on the surface, as if nothing had happened.
She pulled Tao Tao to sit under the door of the observation room, without saying a word.
Momo has cried enough, and now her mood has returned to her senses a little. She took a deep breath, looked at Zuo Xiao beside her and apologized: "Sister Xiao, I'm really embarrassed, I didn't think much about why you are here." Looking at the way the doctor ran away with the second fool just now, the problem of the second fool should be quite serious, right? β
Zuo Xiaopi didn't laugh and didn't say anything.
There was another silence between the two.
Zuo Xiao was a little irritated by such an environment, she stood up and wanted to go out for a cigarette. Unexpectedly, she just got up, and Tao Tao, who was crying and her eyes were red, grabbed her hand, as if she was afraid that this person would leave her like this.
"I'll go out and arrange work, it's fine." Zuo Xiao persuaded. "I'm not leaving."
Tao Tao let go of her hand a little embarrassed: "I'm really embarrassed, I may be too nervous......"
Seeing Taotao's somewhat embarrassed expression, Zuo Xiao's heart softened. This child looks like a person who has been protected very well since he was a child and has not encountered any trouble. However, such a person makes Zuo Xiao envious, isn't it a good thing that people can suffer less in this life?
She sat down again, held Momo's hand, and said with a smile, "You and Coffee grew up together." β
"yes. When I was a kid, it came to the house when I can remember. The corners of Taotao's mouth raised slightly, as if recalling the memories that made her happy before. When I was in elementary school, I was timid, and I would train for coffee every day to accompany me home. Do you know where the name came from? It was at that time that he stole my dad's coffee beans, and that's how the name came about. β
When she said this, the smile on the corner of Taotao's mouth became even brighter.
Zuo Xiao laughed with her, but soon remembered another thing. That is, she has almost never heard her take the initiative to talk about her parents in front of Tao Tao, as if this girl also lives alone?
"Then my parents got into a car accident, and I was the only one who had to live with coffee. Coffee has never made me suffer much since I was a child, and sometimes she takes care of me like a nanny. It's also because of its existence that I've hardly been bullied. Momo chuckled. Actually, I think after so many years, it's time to let go of these things. Now that I've met my fiancΓ©, and their family still treats me like a daughter, it's not a big deal...... You know, I'm getting married soon, and just this weekend, I've always thought it would be best if I had coffee at my wedding, but ...... But ......"
Tao Tao subconsciously held Zuo Xiao's hand and forcibly controlled her emotions. Zuo Xiao clearly felt the coldness coming from the other party's fingertips, and he was a little drilly.
"I've been scared all this time, afraid that the coffee will suddenly leave me. It seems to feel something, too, and sometimes likes to run up to me and rub against me, as if to remind me that it is still there. You don't know, when I got a call from the hospital just now, people were going to explode. I ran over from the company in desperation, thinking that I must be by his side no matter what. It's just ...... now"
Zuo Xiao patted her on the shoulder, signaling that she didn't need to say more.
In fact, at the beginning, Zuo Xiao didn't understand why he wanted to raise two fools. She has to be angry with herself every day, and she has to be willing to serve the second fool.
Then she figured it out.
The bond between people and pets is inseparable from the initial companionship of each other. They are indeed pets, but when they grow up with people and go through their lives, people look back and see the years when time has worn away on them.
Finally, one day, pets will leave the side of humans, some people will be sad, sad and empty, and their hearts and souls will always feel that a part is missing. But...... I had to accept it all.
They bring more joy to human beings, like a ray of sunshine in the face of a chaotic life. Even if they leave one day, it will never take away the warmth from everyone. Probably that's what it's all about having a pet.
Probably, this is the reason why Zuo Xiao didn't leave the hospital......
If this ray of sunshine really leaves her like this this time, even if there are ten casts, it can't make her happy, right?
