Chapter 9
The shadows of the trees on the land slowly moved from west to east, until the scorching sun completely set, the red sky gradually darkened, the moon had climbed the treetops at some point, one by two, and the stars gradually entered the eyes, and the world here suddenly became quiet.
Looking up at the girl sitting alone in a daze on the tree, Little Star was speechless, and he didn't know how to comfort this lonely girl.
It wasn't until today that he didn't know why he had never seen the other children around Ruoli since he had been with Ruoli for so long, and it wasn't until today that he knew how important his arrival was to Ruoli.
Now, his heart is telling himself that this girl, he wants to be with him all the time.
Under the soft moonlight, shallow Ruoli tilted her head slightly, staring blankly at the sky, not knowing what she was thinking. I thought she would cry silently at this moment to vent all her emotions, but she didn't.
"Little stars, you say, why do these stars come out only at night? Where did they flee during the day? Without any warning, Ruoli asked in a flat tone.
Xiaoxing was stunned, he didn't know if Ruoli was hiding his sadness, or if he was really fine.
Finding a good direction, Xiaoxing also climbed the tree, sat next to Ruoli, and looked at the stars in the night sky with her.
"Huh? Little Star, you know what? Ruoli turned his head and asked
"Of course." Little Star smiled, "Actually, during the day, they are also there. It's just that the sunlight was so strong at that time that it blocked their faint light that we couldn't see them. So, they've been there all along, they're not running away, it's just that we can't see them. ”
"Really?! All the time? Ruoli was very surprised
"Well, really. So if you leave, don't be afraid, even if we can't see it, it doesn't matter, you just need to know in your heart that they have been silently accompanying you all the time, it's enough. Didn't you say that the brightest one in there is a little star? She's the same, she's always watching you, day or night, and she's never left Ruoli. Xiaoxing retracted his gaze, looked down at Ruoli on the side, and said with a smile.
"It's just that I can't see it......" Ruoli muttered softly, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled
Seeing Ruoli gradually smiled, the little star's hanging heart gradually settled.
"Ruoli, I'll tell you another secret!"
"Secret?! What secret? ”
"Do you know how far away these stars are from us?" The little star asked, pointing to the stars in the sky
Ruoli looked up and said thoughtfully, "It should be about as far away as the sky!" ”
"Hmm...... Wrong. Little Star shook his head, "These stars are small on our planet, right, not as big as a finger we are." ”
"Well, but what does that have to do with how far away it is?" Ruo asked as he looked at the little star in confusion
Little Star smiled helplessly and continued: "Actually, many of these stars are tens of thousands of times larger than the sun, but what we see is much smaller than the sun, and this is because it is far, far away from us, far away from us at all. ”
"Ruoli, you know what? Because they are so far away from us that even the light they emit takes tens of thousands or even hundreds of millions of years to reach our earth, some of these 'stars' we see now have already fallen and we don't know it. ”
"It's fallen...... That's ...... Dead? Ruoli's voice trembled a little, and his eyes looked at the little star on the side
Only then did he realize that one of his inadvertently touched her heart again.
In a panic, Xiaoxing hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, they are not dead, they just changed places to accompany others." You see, even though it's no longer here, its light still shines on, providing light for the night, isn't it? ”
After listening to Xiaoxing's explanation, Ruoli looked at the night sky again, his ice-colored eyes emitting a faint light in the darkness, just like the stars shining in the sky, staring at it like this, silent for a long time.
Seeing Ruoli's sudden silence, Xiaoxing began to blame himself a little, he didn't dare to guarantee that his hasty explanation just now had made up for it, he really didn't dare to hurt Ruoli's heart again.
Ruoli didn't know how many times she had survived the starry night alone, but because it was too many times, Shao's mother stopped looking for and urging Ruoli, and let her go. And for the little star, how could Feng Ze care? So the two of them sat quietly for a long time, and the sky never meant to be bright.
I don't know how long it took, Ruoli finally spoke: "Little star, I'm scared." ”
"Huh?!" A sudden sentence caught Xiaoxing off guard, "What ......"
"Just now...... and Fengze. Ruoli said softly, but his voice was very small.
Xiaoxing was stunned, knowing what Ruoli was referring to, he smiled and said, "How come?" It's not your fault. ”
Ruoli turned his head to look at the little star, his eyes full of surprise.
"Everyone has their own unique characteristics, whether it is appearance or whatever, if you are just different from others, this is just one of your characteristics, everyone should be proud of their differences."
"A ...... like no other Peculiarity. So, little star, do you have it too? The difference......" Ruoli asked
"Of course. Look here. As he spoke, Little Star turned around and pointed to his neck, where he saw a scar about three centimeters long on his neck, just below his left ear, like a ...... Scars left by a branch.
"This ......"
Before Ruo left to ask about the origin of this scar, Xiaoxing immediately turned back, blocked the wound, and said, "So, Feng Ze's injury is the same as mine, don't you blame yourself too much, don't you also know?" It's just a mistake, and you can't control it. And, if you leave, don't care about other people's eyes, in my opinion, your eyes are your characteristics, the most beautiful characteristics. It's true. ”
Ruoli looked at the little star in a daze and froze.
"The most beautiful feature ......"
"Xiaoxing, did you hear me? That's what he really said, I really didn't dream about it......"
"So, Ruoli, you are not the only one in your world, you have Xiaoxing, Aunt Shao, and me. You must not be alone......"
This sentence will definitely make Ruoli sleepless all night, and the arrival of this person may also change something imperceptibly......
"It's too late, if you leave, go back to the dormitory."
“…… Well, you can go back too. Good night. ”
The shadows of the two people staggered and separated under the street lamp, gradually drifting apart......
Not far from the tree, a boy with a guitar stood there, his gaze following the girl's back as she left, until she completely disappeared into the darkness.
Looking down at the guitar in his hand, there was one sentence that he never said:
"One person's world, how come I haven't experienced ......"
