Chapter 168: Indulge in it
Gray was in a state of extreme weakness and was completely unable to move, so during that long recovery time, he told Shaida about the past.
It's not too specific, and the most torturous things are all mentioned in one sentence. Shaida sat quietly next to him, neither speaking nor crying.
But she herself was unaware of holding him tightly with one hand.
Gray had always disliked any restraint on his body, but instead of getting rid of her hand, he gently reversed his palm to fit her fingers better.
As he spoke, the people around him were silent, but the small hand was squeezed tighter and tighter from time to time, as if one could feel her heart tightening because of the pain.
The reason why I told it to her was because she felt it when we danced together—all of this, she already knew, and she was so easy to feel the trauma of others.
He never thought to hide anything from her, and even Gray didn't want to hide it from anyone. But people have never been aware of his affairs, so why should they take the initiative to mention those unbearable past events?
But now it was different, and if she didn't make it clear to her, she would be sad, even more sad than knowing these sad things.
This is a unique feeling - although they sit quietly together and don't speak, they clearly feel that the other party is distressed, very intense distress, all for themselves!
It's all because of her, so when she tells these past events that she doesn't want to look back, she didn't feel as painful as she expected.
I have never had such a body odor, and I am even a little addicted to it, unable to extricate myself.
Both of them were immersed in their emotions and spent a long time quietly like this, and they also missed everything that was wonderful about the outside world on this day.
Missed the rest of the race, missed the tension of announcing the results, missed the grand award ceremony.
But all this, for them, is no longer important.
By the time Gray was finally able to stand up and walk back, it was already dark.
In the evening of Minami no Kuni, the streets are full of neon, the lights are on, it is lively, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, which is completely different from the already cold Kitanokuni.
The two of them got into a taxi, turned their phones back on, and all kinds of missed calls and messages scrambled and popped out.
The most missed calls came from Kai, as well as from other participants. Most of the messages are asking, "What's wrong, where are you?" Until the end, a clause jumped out: "Shaida, you have won the Gold Award, and you are the first place in the Gold Award!" If you're with a teacher, thank them quickly! ”
also sent a photo of the award, and it was Kai who accepted the award on her behalf.
Shaida showed the information and photos to Gray, who smiled faintly.
Others can't see how she works hard where no one is around, and this dance was originally choreographed with her as the protagonist...... made up with her and herself as the protagonists, since she is on the field, it is impossible to lose to others.
She deserves all this!
This result was definitely something that Shaida had never hoped for before she came to the South Country, and she just wanted not to lose face at that time. But there were too many twists and turns, and when Gray decided to go on stage with her, her goals changed!
At that moment, letting go of all her anxiety and cowardice, she said to him, "Teacher, let's take a championship!"
Now, the wish has really come true, unexpectedly, and I don't feel too much excitement. That is, with him, what is not taken for granted?
When they arrived at the hotel, Kai came out to pick them up. Neither Gray nor Shaida are very good at lying, so they don't know how to explain the day's disappearance. After all, it's not a normal thing not to even claim the grand prize.
In the end, it was Shaida who said that the teacher's foot was accidentally injured......
Kay looked them up and down, didn't say anything, didn't ask any more questions, just asked Gray for his opinion, and changed the three of them to the next day's return ticket to the next day.
Kai's reaction made Shaida feel that her words were really lame, in fact, Kai was the first to discover Gray Fantasia's secret, and he has always believed in his own judgment.
And at this moment, he was so understanding that he didn't say a word more.
After sending Gray back to his room with Kai, convinced that his condition would last until the return trip, Shaida returned to her room with a heavy heart.
Since she had never received the award on the spot, the joy of winning the grand prize did not infect her at all. Now, her heart was full of worries about Gray.
Worried about both his body and his emotions. Today he was obviously very hit, because he was only on stage for three minutes, and when he came down, he became like this.
It is possible that once again it means the shattering of a dream.
The phone vibrated slightly, and another message was received.
"Ida, how was the game? I've been waiting for your message, but I can't wait! ”
An "Sorry" emoji was added to the end, and the sender's capital letter "K" indicated that the message came from the distant land of the West.
It was sent by Konstantin.
Of course, he knew about Shaida's coming to the South Country to compete, and he also gave Shaida a lot of valuable advice. During the previous month of penance, Konstantin had been on the other side of the airwaves, encouraging her tirelessly.
Today is the day when she competes on stage, he knows better than anyone else, and he has always been worried about it.
Only then did Shaida realize that the promise she had promised to send a message to Kosgaard to report her results after the race had long been forgotten by her.
She quickly pressed the button, and didn't care about the words, and picked out the important ones that had happened today, and of course, only talked about Gray taking the stage in place of Kay, and hid everything about what Gray told her.
The message was sent out, and there was a long, long silence on the other side.
Just when Shaida had almost forgotten that she had sent such a message, the tone of the new message rang again.
It's Konstantin.
"Congratulations to Ida, winning a national gold medal is never an easy task, and it is not completely lucky, as you say. I can always see your efforts, and I am proud of you! ”
After a while, suddenly another one came.
"I decided to apply for the end of the course early and go back early. Wait for me. ”
Shaida looked at these two pieces of unrelated information, and felt confused.
Cosgaard has only been to the Holy See Academy for less than half a year, although he has the strength to complete his studies ahead of schedule and return from his studies, but, why?
I have heard that the most commendable thing about the opportunities for performances and practical training provided by the Holy See Academy for students is that it is not just about acquiring knowledge.
Shaida didn't know that at this moment, the blonde beautiful boy sitting at his desk in a distant country, unconsciously rubbing the screen of his mobile phone back and forth, was experiencing the turmoil he had never felt before.
