In the cold winter, it seems that even the morning sun is afraid of the cold of the earth, hoping to be in the bed for a while in the bed and refuses to come out early, so although it is already seven o'clock, the night sky outside the window is still dark and deep.
While most of the children were still asleep in the warm bed, waiting for their parents to wake them up after they had finished making breakfast, the little girl had already "jingled" and started making breakfast in the kitchen.
This year, Lilia is five and a half years old. Although her movements are a little difficult because her body has not fully grown up, her skilled experience allows her to easily control those kitchen utensils.
It didn't take long for Lilia to skillfully make two simple breakfasts. Carefully filling one of them in a bowl and placing it in the incubator, Lilia wiped the sweat from her head, glanced at the clock in the dim light of the living room, and then sat down at the table and began to eat her own breakfast.
The little girl ate quickly, and when the sky of Cassania began to brighten, she had already packed her school bag and was ready to go out.
Walking to the door of her father's room with her schoolbag on her back, Lilia called out into the dark room, "Dad, I'm going to class." ”
No response.
The middle-aged man who was lying on the bed, suffering from illness due to perennial alcoholism, did not respond this time, did not even make the usual casual "um", and seemed to be sleeping deeply. Standing in the doorway, Lilia could only see her father's back arching in an arc under the thick bed.
So Lilia carefully closed the door and made no more noise, lest she disturb her father's sleep.
Tiptoeing out of the house, Lilia stepped on the dim light of the early morning street lamps and left with her schoolbag on her back.
When the little girl came back from school at noon, she set her eyes on the dining table as usual, and planned to wash the dishes and chopsticks left by her father after eating. However, the little girl searched in the room several times, but could not find the bowl, and suddenly became a little puzzled.
Frowning, he opened the incubator, and the breakfast that Lilia had placed in it when he left the morning was still completely in the incubator, without any traces of touching.
Lowering her head and thinking about it, the little girl ran to the door of her father's room, "Dad, haven't you eaten breakfast?"
There was no response in the darkness, and there was still a quiet dead silence in the room.
Lilia frowned, she stood in front of the door and thought for a moment, took out a few copper coins, opened the door of the villa and ran out.
After about ten minutes, Lilia ran back with a small bottle of wine, "Dad, you can't eat anything, na...... Today is a special case, you are allowed to drink a small amount, but not too much, otherwise the condition will worsen. ”
However, in response to her, there was still silence.
"Daddy, don't you want it? if you don't...... Lilia took the bottle back. ”
In the darkness of "............", the man was still silent and did not speak, and the faintly visible outline in the darkness made the little girl a little frightened.
"Daddy, ...... you" Carefully touching her father's back, Lilia asked softly, "You can't be angry, right?"
"......" responded to her with silence.
Lilia hesitated, not knowing what her father's reaction meant.
Tilting her head and thinking about it, the little girl felt that since her father did not express his opinion, then he must have acquiesced. After all, according to his father's temper, if he really objected to this, then even if he was sleepy, he would definitely force his sleepiness to sue her.
"Uh...... Alright then, Daddy, go back to sleep, I won't bother you," the little girl quietly retreated, closing the door gently.
But after a while, the door was opened again. Lilia popped her head out of the crack in the door, and shouted at the silhouette on the bed in the darkness with some unease, "Remember to eat......"
Then the door slammed shut, and there was a dead silence in the room.
After returning to the living room, the little girl took the breakfast that was already a little cold in the incubator to the kitchen and heated it, and ate the leftovers with a glass of boiled water. In the quiet and empty room, only the little girl sat silently at the dining table, eating the leftovers of the morning.
There was no sun in the white sky in winter, only a slightly dull light, suggesting that it was daytime. A dull white light shone through the window into the empty room, making the temperature seem colder and colder.
After the little girl finished eating, she took out the homework assigned by the teacher from her school bag, sat on the chair in the living room and began to do her homework. In the quiet room, for a while, only the rustle of the tip of the pen rubbing against the rough paper kept ringing.
However, the tranquility here seems a little cold and lonely, as if it is far away from the warmth of the world.
When Lilia came home from school in the afternoon, she opened the door of her father's bedroom again, and she was a little puzzled to see that the bottle of wine she had bought at noon was still neatly placed on the bedside table, and it seemed that she had not even moved.
Frowning and glancing at her father, who was still asleep on the bed, the little girl gently closed the door, not understanding why her father's sleepiness was so strong today, and he didn't even drink his favorite wine.
After a while, there was a "ping-pong" sound in the kitchen, followed by the sizzling of ingredients and piping hot oil. As the little girl moved in the kitchen, a puff of white cooking smoke came out of the kitchen window, slowly drifting away in the cold winter wind.
After about half an hour, Lilia gently pushed open the door of her father's room.
After walking to the bed and putting the food on the bedside table, the little girl said to her father, "Dad, I put the food at the head of the bed, and remember to eat it when you wake up later." If you can't eat it, you can eat it with wine. ”
However, when Lilia pushed the room open again the next morning, the wine bottle was still in its original position, and the food had not been opened at all, and it had completely cooled down.
"Dad, even if you don't have an appetite, you still have to eat a little, if you don't eat all the time, your body will not be able to stand it," the little girl hesitated for a moment and persuaded softly.
In the darkness, she was still silent.
Lilia sighed, and could only take the cold food away, "Okay, if you don't want to eat, Dad, then you can continue to rest, and I'll go back and ask the doctor later, and see if I can prepare some other food for you." ”
"If you're hungry later, there's food in the incubator in the living room," the little girl admonished, and the door to the room was closed again.
However, what gave the little girl a headache was that no matter what he bought to cook, her father would not eat it. No matter what kind of food she cooked, when she opened the door the next day, Xiao could see that the food was still prepared.
Finally, on the fourth day, the little girl couldn't help it.
She gently pushed her father's back, and urged in a worried whisper, "Dad, please...... Eat a little bit, Lilia...... Lilia was worried......"
“............”
But there was only silence in response to her.
Lilia was stunned, gritted her teeth, and pushed her father hard, "Dad, don't sleep, get up quickly......"
Then, the little girl was stunned.
The middle-aged man who was pushed over by her rolled on the bed, and then lay face up on the bed. Through the dim light of the room, Lilia saw her father's slightly closed eyes, and ......
That strange sallow on the face.
"Dad...... Dad?" Lilia's stiff and trembling hand gently nudged her father, "Wake up...... Don't scare me...... Don't scare Lilia...... Lilia is so scared......"
In response to her, there was still a dead silence.
Trembling, she stretched out her hand and gently placed it on her father's chest, and what she sensed was the heart that had long ceased to beat, and the coldness that had no temperature at all......
Tears blurred her vision.
Weakly sat on the ground, with a crisp sound, the space collapsed, and the little girl's world was instantly dark......
