Chapter 40: Linda's Mother

After spring break, and the prom is not far away, Rand Middle School is starting to enter the prom preparation season, and there are boys and girls everywhere who are inviting dance partners, or worrying about how to invite dance partners.

But Linda's mind was obviously not on this, and she even began to wander in class, and Kata Kata pressed the ballpoint pen and poked it in the textbook.

Nahi knew the reason, and sighed secretly, and worried for them.

Linda was really fine that day, insisting on rejecting Jacob's offer, and was helped back to the campsite by Naihi. Penny was also frightened, hugging Linda and crying and laughing, threatening to confiscate her SLR sooner or later.

Of course, the camping could not continue, and several people let Linda lie down and rest for a while, packed the tent grill that had just been set up back into her bag, and rushed out of the mountain forest before dark.

After having dinner at Charlie's house and being sent home one by one by Dmitry, Linda must have thought that this was the end of the matter.

But recently, Jacob came to school every day to watch them out of school, patting the hot red motorcycle and inviting her to ride.

"Isn't that a good thing?" Edward and Bella were overjoyed to learn about it from Nahi.

Edward was glad that he finally had a strong rival in love.

Beira... Bella has always felt that she has failed Jacob, and most of all hopes that he can find his own happiness.

"For Jacob, of course, that's a good thing. But Linda-"Nacy paused, not knowing how to explain the difference between the two of them.

It's not just the difference between werewolves and ordinary humans, if there is love, these are not problems, like Edward and Bella.

But the gap between Jacob and Linda lies in knowledge and future planning, in cognition and life ideals. Just like the place where they each live, one is the sea cliff mountain stream, and the other is the iron-walled building forest.

Jacob's mission is to call home Linda's sky in the academic world. It's not that any kind of life is more valuable or noble, it's just that it's too different to find intersections.

Bella was speechless, it was really not something she was qualified to judge, the choice was up to them.

Linda's absent-mindedness continued until the end of school, and Nacy and Penny racked their brains without making a few words.

Thinking that she hadn't recovered from the accident, Penny secretly discussed the possibility of PTSD with Nahi, and said that Dow's analysis that Jacob's pursuit would constantly remind her of the scene of that day, and continue to irritate her nerves, causing her to be repeatedly nervous and anxious.

Nacy doesn't think Linda is so vulnerable, but she can't explain Jacob's situation to Penny, so she can only persuade her to let Linda judge and decide for herself.

As they walked out of their minds, Linda suddenly screamed and rushed out the door, throwing herself into the arms of a well-dressed woman.

The figure was thin and tired, the woman's forehead was still wrapped in gauze, and her cheeks were a little bruised, and she was hit by Linda and staggered, as if she had touched a wound, and she bared her teeth in pain.

"Are you hurt? Is it serious? Did I just bump into it? Let me see. Linda noticed the woman's stiffness, her face suddenly turned white, and her hand skillfully touched the position of the bandaging on her body, but her vision blurred, not because of worry or grievance.

"I'm fine, baby, I just miss you." The woman took Linda's hand, took her daughter who was already crying into her arms, and patted her comfortingly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I promise I can rest at home for a few more days this time." ”

"Who wants you to rest for only a few days, and you can't..." Linda choked up and swallowed the second half of her sentence, knowing that she wouldn't compromise and change because of her crying.

This is probably Linda's mother, it seems that the task is very difficult to complete, and Naixi doesn't know whether to be happy or sad for Linda. I wanted La Penny to sneak past and leave the space for the mother and daughter, but the woman looked up and saw them.

She let go of Linda, smiled kindly at Naki and Penny, and took the initiative to reach out her hand, "You are Linda's good friends, I am her mother, you can call me Ann." ”

"Hello, Lady Sidon, I'm Nahi." Nahi hurriedly shook hands respectfully, still not used to calling strange elders by their names, and called the surname in a compromise manner.

"You're Nahi?" The woman's eyes lit up, and the handshake became more enthusiastic, "Selena mentioned you and said that you would be her brother-in-law." She winked playfully, not thinking there was anything wrong with gossiping about the juniors.

Nahi didn't have time to be embarrassed, she just felt that the world was so small, "Do you know Selena?" ”

"Of course, she's my colleague, and I owe her my life thanks to her this time." The woman's eyes were full of emotion.

How thrilling it will be after a few words of understatement, Naxi can't think about it, and she only admires people like Selena and Ann in her heart.

For their families, they are derelict in their duties, they are nowhere to be seen, and they cannot be relied on, but they make their families worry and break their hearts.

But there must always be such a person, regardless of gains and losses, without expecting anything in return, in an invisible place, to keep a bright place for all sentient beings.

It wasn't until the two of them walked away that Naki withdrew his gaze, a slight doubt about his former judgment. Maybe it's not impossible for Jacob and Linda to do so.

In a sense, he and An are actually the same kind of people, both have the persistence and belief to transcend themselves in their hearts, and have the courage and persistence to fulfill their mission. But Jacob and Ann are different, there is Linda in his persistence, and his persistence is also Linda.

Such a man who satisfies her admiration and security at the same time, will Linda really refuse?

Not far away, Jacob, who was riding on a red motorcycle, was still silently watching.

Linda hasn't agreed to his quest yet, but what's the matter? He will not give up, nor can he give up, imprinting his lover is like heaven's compensation for the suffering of the people of Querut, a solace and light when they walk alone in the dark. Just keep following, and there won't be any more vampires this time anyway. Jacob laughed to himself and started the motorcycle.

On the way home, Nahi asked Dmitry if he would worry about Selena.

"She's a vampire," Dmitry reminded him helplessly, looking at Nahi, "she can run faster than a bullet if she wants, and her eyesight and hearing are more than a hundred times that of ordinary people, and nothing can hurt her." ”

Realizing that she had asked a silly question, Nahi wrenched her fingers in shame and bit out a petite and cute crescent on her lips.

Such a Nehi made Dmitry's heart tremble, and he reached out to take the small hand that was still twisted together, put it to his mouth and nibbled it.

Look, the tooth marks he left are sharp and round, no matter how you look at it, it is not as cute as Nahi's little crescent, and he is so dissatisfied that he bites it again, it hurts a little, Naxi clenched his fist and wanted to retract his hand, Dmitry quickly put away his sharp teeth and gently kissed the traces just now.

Nehi was imprisoned by Dmitry and could not move, his lips and tongue had moved down his arm to his neck, lingering repeatedly in the arteries, but he did not feel the danger at all, only the tingling itch penetrated his skin, flowing through his heart, blurring his mind.

"It's a dangerous job, and now that the weapons and equipment are getting more and more advanced, I still have to let her be more careful-hmm-", she barely mustered up her spirits, but was dissatisfied, and her lips were gagged and licked and pecked endlessly, as if to protest that she cared about others, and as if begging her to look at herself.

When he got home, Nehi's face was still red, and Dmitry's cold fingertips were so hot that he even shrunk as he stroked it.

Nahi glared at him in annoyance, but there was nothing she could do about him. All the ambiguous, excessive, toe-curling intimacy is interpreted as uncontrollable, and the singer, who is the vampire, can't help it.

Edward greeted the door and looked at Dmitry with a bad gaze, both his expression and the thoughts in his head were too flat, and Edward even regretted that he had spoken for him.

"Thank you for sending Nashi home, we won't leave you to eat." Squeezing the eviction order out between his teeth, Edward blocked the doorway, blocking the figure of Nahi who seemed to run upstairs.

Dmitry raised his eyebrows: "In two more years, I should say this to you." ”

Listen up! Is this talking about human words? Edward felt like he was about to explode on the spot.

"Are you sure?" Bella walked over to Edward's side, her cheeks curled menacingly, her eyes blazing, her hands clenched tightly at her side, ready to punch him head-on.

Alice and Gaspar teleported from the opposite courtyard and apparently heard their conversation as well.

The confrontation full of gunpowder was obviously more joking, but Dmitry clearly saw the serious reluctance and unwavering protection in their eyes.

That look was very similar to the way it was when I negotiated in Volturi in my previous life, compromising because of worry, helpless because of compromise, but with a fierce determination that was desperate.

They really, really love Nahi, so it's good.

Dmitry didn't speak, patted Edward on the shoulder, and turned to leave, leaving Cullen looking at each other with mixed feelings.

Intellectually, they are aware of the connection between the singer and the vampire, a deep bond that cannot be separated from life and death. I also know that Nashi deserves such single-minded love and happiness. Looking at the sweetness of their own one-on-one pairs, and then looking at so many happy or tragic examples in the vampire race, how can you not understand the meaning of the two together.

But they're too special. Not to mention that Nahi is a rare half-vampire hybrid, a baby they have pampered since childhood. Just looking at Dmitry, he is really an inscrutable and vaguely unsettling fellow, and even Edward can rarely hear his thoughts.

originally thought that this was the calmness of the long years of practice and precipitation, and the indifference after the vicissitudes of life had dissipated, but the eyes he looked at Naxi were really terrifying, and the occasional heart voice was also crazy and amazing.

Edward even suspected that when Nehi got married, Dmitry might hide her to the ends of the earth so that they would never find her again. He's the best tracker in the world, and if he's good at tracking, he's also good at hiding...

Thinking of this, Edward couldn't help but shudder, frightened by his divergent thinking.

Not really, right? No, he shook his head, and took Bella back to the house, thinking about what kind of mess, and cooking for his daughter.
