On Saturday morning, Su Xiaoxiao was woken up by the sound of a fire alarm.

As soon as it was dawn, the fire alarm in the dormitory screamed sharply, and someone was using the radio to tell everyone to hurry up the stairs to a safe place on the first floor.

Su Xiaoxiao slept in a daze, grabbed her mobile phone and casually put on a coat and ran downstairs with the flow of people, knocking on the door several times when she passed by Lisa, Alice and Jessica's room.

Five minutes later, everyone dispersed on the lawn outside the dormitory door, and three ambulances stopped at the door of the dormitory with flashing lights, and puffs of smoke could be faintly seen coming from the cafeteria.

Su Xiaoxiao was so old that it was the first time she had experienced a fire in person, and she was a little stunned when she was close to Saska. The January wind was cold and blowing, blowing like a knife on her face, and she couldn't help but shiver.

Jessica rubbed her eyes wistfully and nudged Alice beside her.

"Look, Aris, why is there still a man squatting on the ground?"

"yes, it feels a little familiar."

Alice looked at it carefully, "Xiaoxiao, you see if this is your roommate." ”

Hearing what Alice said, Su Xiaoxiao looked over curiously.

The girl in the Hello Kitty cotton pajamas squatted alone in a corner of the grass shivering, with no friends by her side, like a frightened kitten. A few foreign girls walked up to her and asked her if she was uncomfortable, she just smiled reluctantly and shook her head, and everyone walked away without asking.

"Looks like it's really her."

Su Xiaoxiao thought of what Hathaway did to Yan Yimo that day, and it was a little awkward. Seeing her annoyed panic, don't look around, didn't say anything.

After a few minutes, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but glance there again. Feeling that Hathaway's reaction was not quite right, Su Xiaoxiao was a little unbearable and asked Saska in a low voice.

"Shall we go see her?"

The four of them walked up to Hathaway, and for fear of startling her, they gently patted her on the shoulder and asked softly, "Are you okay?" ”

The girl with her back turned her head, her nose was red from crying, and her face was full of tears. looked at the four of them in a daze, unable to say a word.

The cafeteria was caused by a fire caused by not paying attention when preparing breakfast and baking bacon. Thanks to the early detection, the fire was not serious, and it was completely extinguished after ten minutes. Seeing that it was okay, Su Xiaoxiao and the four of them quickly wrapped their coats tightly and helped Hathaway back to her room. Lisa also poured her a cup of hot water to warm her hands.

"Hathaway, are you alright?"

Alice spoke first, "I think you were a little freaked out just now. But now it's completely fine, don't worry. ”

"Well, it's just that the bacon is a little burnt, not very bad."

"Do you want to take a break by yourself?"

Su Xiaoxiao pulled Sasca beside him, and wanted to leave, "Otherwise, let's go back first, you are quiet, and there is something knocking on my door?" ”

They were just about to go out when Hathaway suddenly grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's sleeve.

"Shino... Xiaoxiao, can you, stay with me for a while... I... I'm a little scared. ”

Looking at her state, Su Xiaoxiao probably felt that Hathaway might have something on her mind, so she asked Saska to go back first and stay with her.

"Shino... Xiaoxiao, what happened last time was right... I'm sorry. ”

Hathaway suddenly took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and apologized, which surprised her a little.

"Hmm..."

"Actually, I... I don't know Jackson at all, I just think he's very good and handsome," Hathaway looked at Su Xiaoxiao fixedly, "and then I thought, why can't you?" ”

Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao deliberately avoided her eyes, Hathaway continued, "I'm really sorry, I know what I did was wrong. Appear... Now I understand why he chose you..."

In fact, Su Xiaoxiao's previous anger had long since disappeared, and seeing her pitiful appearance now, she grinned awkwardly and wanted to divert the topic.

"Well, forget about the past. But how did you react so much just now, are you feeling better now? ”

Bean-sized tears couldn't stop rolling out of his eyes, and Hathaway whimpered, "Actually, I just thought of my mother. ”

Su Xiaoxiao froze in place, she didn't expect Hathaway to have such a story, she didn't know how to answer, so she could only silently push the paper to her hand.

Hathaway spoke intermittently, seemingly for Su Xiaoxiao, but more like a person's own talk. Su Xiaoxiao, who listened, couldn't help but shed a few tears.

It turned out that their family lived in Hualien, her father ran a small company, her mother was a full-time wife, and her younger brother was ten years younger than her. With both children and a solid family, it is a happy family of four in everyone's eyes.

But when Hathaway was in his second year of junior high school, a fire changed their lives. My mother was so tired from housework that she forgot to turn off the cooking on the stove when she coaxed her younger brother to take a nap, and when she was woken up by the smell of smoke, the fire spread to the bedroom door. In order to protect her brother's severe burns, my mother passed away not long after she was sent to the hospital. My younger brother is in a slightly better situation because of his mother's protection. But he was too young and had a weak immune system, so he left Hathaway because of an infection after being rescued in the hospital for half a month.

Dad was depressed for several years, and he talked a lot less than before. Almost two years ago, he suddenly became a little more cheerful, and it didn't take long for him to remarry.

The new mother is a young woman who is more than a decade younger than her father, thoughtful and beautiful, and Hathaway tries to accept the new family, but the new mother does not like her. Not long after the two got married, the new mother became pregnant. Dad is very happy to be old and happy, and Hathaway is old again, Dad is always worried that she will have some bad thoughts about her new brother, and at the instigation of the new mother, he sent her to Canada ruthlessly.

"Xiaoxiao..."

Hathaway couldn't help but cry again, "I really didn't mean to hurt you, it's... I don't know what's wrong with me, I always want to find a great boy I can rely on, so that in the future, I don't have to worry about my life..."

"Don't cry, don't cry," Su Xiaoxiao hugged Hathaway and patted her head like a baby, "You are so cute, believe in yourself, you must meet such a person." ”

"Hmm..."

Hathaway gently hugged Su Xiaoxiao back, tears wetting her coat.

When talking to Yan Yimo on the phone at night, Su Xiaoxiao told Hathaway about it, and then said that he forgave her after listening to her hardships. There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, and then there was a hum.

"Mr. Yi, you must take care of yourself. I'll take care of myself too. ”

Su Xiaoxiao has never been more aware of the importance of health than today, and repeatedly told Yan Yimo to eat well and sleep well.

"yes, I know."

Yan Yimo looked at the cabinet of snacks that Su Xiaoxiao had bought for him before leaving, and raised the corners of his mouth, "For you, I will." ”

Hanging up the phone, Su Xiaoxiao felt that he had grown up today. I sent a message to my parents and mothers, asking them to pay attention to their bodies.

Everyone has a dark side, and the shadow is the proof of darkness.

But no matter how long the road is, there is an end, and no matter how long the night is, there is an end.
