Chapter 291: The Precious Him I Didn't Know
"Thank you, I want to see it, can I take it back and watch it slowly?" Shaida asked in a whisper.
There are a lot of things, she doesn't want to watch it here, and more importantly, she is afraid that if she looks here, she can't help but shed tears.
"Of course, I'll call someone to send it to you later." Anna said kindly, "There are still ......"
"Huh?" Seeing that she was about to speak, Shaida felt a little puzzled.
"Originally, the affairs of you young people are not something we should intervene in and talk about, but about Gray, I still want to ask you, no matter what difficulties you encounter on the road in the future, do not give up easily. This may be a reluctant invitation to you, but as an elder, you really don't want that child to go through any more storms and setbacks. That kid was so sensible since he was a kid that he never caused trouble to anyone. How I wish he could 'trouble' me once, so that I can do my part, but unfortunately never did. After Lady Marlena's death, Joseph's heart had already died, and Gray had dealt him too much blow, and if anything happened again, I fear he would not be able to bear it. ”
As she spoke, the smile that had been hanging on Lady Anna's face gradually disappeared, and there was a hint of gloom in her expression.
Hearing her say "young people's business", Shaida originally thought that she was going to talk about her own daughter Angela, but she didn't expect that what she wanted to tell was still Gray's matter. This conversation couldn't help but make Shaida's mood quite complicated.
Communicating with a person face-to-face makes it feel different. The joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the other party, and the secrets hidden in the bottom of their hearts, will turn into a kind of breath that can be captured as long as they are attentive enough.
From the first sight of Madame Ana Fantasia, Shaida had the feeling that there was a faint sadness hidden under her gentle smile.
Until now, listening to her heartfelt words, I learned that she had always truly cared for Gray, but at the same time, she also understood that she still lived in the shadow of a deceased man who would never be replaced.
That person was Gray's biological mother, Marlena Fantasia.
For Anna, Gray gave full respect. When Anna entered the family, Gray was still young, but he did not hesitate to admit her status, cared for and loved the sister Angela she brought, and even sacrificed himself for Angela, so that he became what he is today.
However, this does not mean that Gray is close to her.
Gray respects her, but doesn't confide in her like a real mother. He rarely mentions her, or even thinks of her, unless he has to. She doesn't have a place in the heart of his world.
What is even more tragic is that it seems that in the world of Mr. Joseph Fantaxia, she has not really entered his heart so far.
In Mr. Fantaxia's attitude towards her, you can feel full respect and respect, but there is always a feeling that something is missing. Put yourself in Gray's shoes, if Gray treats himself like that, just imagining Shaida would feel a little crazy.
However, if that were the case, Gray and he wouldn't have come to this point at all, would they? What are you thinking, Gray is Gray, Gray is no one else!
So, maybe it means that everyone will encounter their own tests in their lives, right?
Under this roof, Mr. Vantasia, Lady Anna, and Gray all had their own struggles and battles, and when she thought about it, Shaida couldn't help but panic a little.
Maybe it's because my life has been going too smoothly all along, right?
"Uncle...... Aunt," Shaida suddenly did not know what to call Anna, so she dared to call closer, "don't worry, no matter what happens, I will do it, I will not ...... Won't leave him! ”
These words are a little difficult to say, because when you say them, you will unconsciously think of Gray's appearance, and you will unconsciously blush and burn.
Although the two naturally became closer, they never seriously talked about "forever", although for this point, both people's hearts are tacit and cannot be changed.
Anna nodded and said, "Thank you, then please!" ”
Shaida suddenly got the courage from nowhere, and boldly said to Anna: "Auntie, come on, as long as you keep working hard, you will definitely be happy!" ”
Anna was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood what she meant, and laughed softly.
"Is it because I mentioned Lady Marlena? What a sensitive little girl - but I'm not unhappy, on the contrary, I'm much happier than many people. ”
She stroked Shaida's hair lovingly.
"Now, after all, I live here, don't I?" Being together is already the greatest happiness, and many unfortunate people can't even have such an opportunity. ”
Back in her room, Shaida pondered Anna's words, and was so immersed in a different mood that Gray knocked on the door and opened it to come in, without even noticing.
When Gray came in, Shaida was looking through the pile of things spread out on the table.
This is exactly what Mr. Vantaasia, who she had moved from Mrs. Anna, had collected about Gray over the years. Originally, I thought that I had already understood Gray to a large extent, but now it seems that her understanding of him is still only a rough idea.
Among those collected items are a large number of posters and news reports from Gilgamesh's performances. There were so many of them that Shaida even wondered if the information about every performance was here. Although the dancers on those posters are always wearing various styles of gorgeous masks, today's Shaida can already be recognized at a glance by her body shape and unique posture, which is the Gray Vantaxia she is familiar with.
The flamboyant and unbridled gesture on the poster made the flexible and powerful body look so beautiful, and Shaida gently stroked him on the paper, feeling a burst of sadness.
And then there's the report, carefully cut out of an outdated newspaper and carefully collaged in a delicate notebook, and just by scanning the headlines, it's all one-sided praise. It's not that the collectors are biased, and when Gilgamesh shone on stage, there really were very few negative comments.
It stands to reason that dancers with such a maverick style usually have mixed reviews, but Gilgamesh is a special case - probably his strength is too much better than that of his contemporaries, and he is a towering tree that is completely "beautiful in the forest", and cannot be shaken by any gust of wind.
I heard that Gilgamesh's performances were full and hard to find, and these posters and other peripherals were precious collections that could not be grabbed. If it all started after Gilgamesh disappeared, the collectors really invested a lot of time and money, regardless of the cost.
There is also a photo album with stills from Gilgamesh, as well as precious images of Gray's childhood and teenage years. Shaida looked at it over and over again, and the young Gray she had never seen before made her reluctant to put the picture down.
But it wasn't just that, when Gray walked into the room, he found the girl crouching in front of the desk, crackling and shedding tears.
