Chapter 5: Avril's Departure
After Alan informed Avril, he went to the mountains to chop wood, and the afternoon passed between Allen's constant swinging of the knife. I don't know why, but when chopping wood in the afternoon, Alan always had a bad feeling, as if something was going to happen.
There were distracting thoughts in his heart, and the efficiency of chopping firewood was naturally much lower, and in the evening, Alan found that he didn't cut as much firewood as usual in the afternoon. Looking up at the fading sunset, Alan sighed softly, bundled up the firewood, and walked in the direction of home.
I don't know what's going on today, the closer Alan gets to home, the more he feels unsettled, and he feels very panicked, the place where Alan and his sister live is very remote, and there are no neighbors, but there are still a few families nearby, and when Alan walked in front of several houses with firewood on his back, he found that they were all looking at him with a strange look.
When they passed several houses in a row, they all had the same expressions, as if sighing, as if they were pitying. Seeing Allen's heart furious, Allen, who couldn't help it, finally came to an old man and asked.
"Uncle, you look at me like this for everything!"
"Alas, poor child, my parents died early, and I have encountered such a thing, I want to open up! Don't be impulsive!" The old man glanced at Allen, sighed lightly and said.
"What the hell is going on? Why do you say that?" Alan asked a little strangely, and at the same time Alan had some bad feelings in his heart, he thought of his sister, did something happen to his sister?
"Don't be too sad, child, be strong!" the old man shook his head and sighed after saying this.
"At home?" Alan's heart beat sharply. "What can happen to my own family? Could it be that it was stolen, even if it was stolen, it was nothing? And there are no valuables, besides, my sister should be back at this time, is it really my sister who has an accident!"
Thinking of this, Alan hurriedly threw down the firewood and ran towards the house with all his might. The house is very quiet, there is no sister in the kitchen, and the stove is very clean, obviously there is no trace of cooking, Alan is cold, and he knows that the road is broken, if it is usually at this time, my sister will come back from work to make the meal.
A little trembling walked into the room, and saw Avril Lavigne lying on the bed, her delicate body trembling slightly, and the corners of her mouth were full of blood.
Alan was stunned, hurriedly ran to his sister, and asked anxiously, "Sister, what's wrong with you, how did you become like this?
"Are you back?" Avril said with a smile when she opened her eyes and saw that it was Ellen, touching Ellen's head lovingly.
"Sister, what the hell is going on? Did that Roy make you like this? How are you feeling now, I'm going to call a doctor. Alan saw the blood on the corner of Avril's mouth and knew that the matter was serious, so he thought of calling a doctor.
"Ahem, ahem, no need to go, the fat aunt has already come with a doctor just now! I'm fine now. Avril frowned slightly, coughed and said.
Alan could clearly see that her sister was talking to herself in pain, and hurriedly said, "Sister, don't talk yet, lie down first, and I'll go to the doctor to take a look." With that, Alan was about to go out.
"Alan, no, come back! I just wanted to talk to you. Avril said in a weak voice.
"Okay, sister, then you can say it! I won't go yet. After listening to Avril's words, Alan stopped, walked back, and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Avril stretched out her white hand and touched Allen's cheek, sighed and said, "You have grown up now, you promise me not to be impulsive in doing things in the future, okay?"
"Well, sister, I listen to you for everything. Alan hurriedly said.
"Hehe, that's not necessarily, when you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, you should listen to your daughter-in-law. Avril said as she could squeeze out a smile.
"In the future, I will listen to my sister when I marry a daughter-in-law. Alan said with a choked voice. Alan remembered what the old people said about returning to the light, it is said that when people are about to die, they will be in a particularly good state for a period of time, Alan is afraid that his sister is also in this situation, and inadvertently cried.
"Hey. Why are you still crying when you're such a big person! You may be left alone in the future, you are not allowed to cry anymore! Men should be stronger. ”,
"Yes, sister, I won't cry anymore. Alan said as tears crackled as they fell.
Avril sighed and said, "Alas, my eyes may be broken, why is the room so dark!Alan, where are you?" Avril raised her hand and groped in the air, as if trying to catch something.
"Sister, I'm here. I'm going to make a lot of money in the future, and then we'll move into a big house. Alan quickly grabbed his sister's hand.
Avril grabbed Alan's hand, her mood stabilized a little, and then she said, "Alan, there are some things I want to tell you, but you must remember what you just said to me, and don't be impulsive when you see things." Avril's voice was a little choppy.
"Okay, sister, you can say it!" Alan said subconsciously.
"I don't know if you remember Mom and Dad? You must have forgotten it! You were still young at that time? I was only a little old, and I was just six years old, but now you are taller than me! Time flies so fast! I want to say to you that although Mom and Dad have not taken care of us all these years, they loved us very much when they were still alive. Do you remember when you were a child and asked me why we didn't have our parents? I told you that I died of illness, but in fact I lied to you, my parents were killed.
One afternoon ten years ago, my mother suddenly told me, "There will be a bad guy coming here in a while, and my father and mother are going to fight the bad guys, so you have to hide in your house or in the crowd and don't come out! That villain is too powerful, so Mom and Dad have to find a way to deal with him, and Mom and Dad will feign defeat and be killed by him when they fight him. Actually, it's not really death, we're just going to leave you for a while, and if you're hungry at home, you're going to use the money to buy something to eat. When we are killed by the villain, you must not make a noise or shout, because we are pretending to be dead to deceive the villain, and once you shout, the villain will find out that Mom and Dad are not really dead, so you must not make a noise for a while!"
You were sleeping in your bed at that time, so you didn't know anything. I was too young to believe my mother's words, and after a while my father and mother suddenly became nervous, and they all rushed out of the house and came out into the street, and I remembered my mother's words at that time, so I ran out of the crowd alone, and after a while, the villain came, he was dressed in a golden robe, and he wore a crown on his head, and I later learned that he was the Pope of the Temple.
The Pope called Mom a traitor and called Dad a heretic, and Mom and Dad had a big argument with the Pope, and then they fought, Mom and Dad were very powerful, but the Pope was even more powerful, and Mom and Dad were killed after the last break. I really thought that Mom and Dad were just pretending to be dead, so I didn't shout, just watched calmly, and then the Pope left and took the bodies of Mom and Dad with me.
After that, my parents never came back, and when I grew up, I realized that my mother lied to me, and the reason why she said that she was afraid that I would suddenly rush out of the city and be discovered by the Pope.
Alan, I know my physical condition, I guess I won't survive today, tell you these things because I think you have grown up, you should have the right to know these truths, but you must remember the promise you made to me just now, don't be impulsive, and think more before doing things. Otherwise, when I get to heaven and meet my parents, they will blame me for not taking good care of you
By the way, there are also the relics of my parents, in the small box under my bed, and there is still some money you usually earn from chopping wood, and you can take it away when the time comes! Today I have offended Roy, the son of the city lord, and I am afraid that he will also trouble you in the future, so you better get out of here quickly!
Hehe, good little Allen, you must remember my words! Otherwise, my sister will be angry and really want to see what the future brother and sister look like, my family Alan is so handsome, and the younger brother and sister must be very beautiful!
It's a pity, I can't see you, Alan, my sister is leaving, you must take care of yourself!
Avril spoke intermittently, her voice lowering.
"Sister, sister!" shouted Allen. However, Avril only closed her eyes and smiled, and couldn't make a sound anymore, Alan knew that her sister would never come back, so she lay on Avril's body and kept crying!
At that time, my sister was only eight or nine years old, and under normal circumstances, she was still playing in her parents' arms at the age of eight or nine! Scenes of the past kept coming to Allen's mind, and his sister's words rang in Allen's ears from time to time
Alan just lay on her sister's body, crying and reminiscing
