bang bang bang

Hearing the knock on the door, Likoa, who was still in a dazed state, subconsciously said:

"Please come in."

Standing outside the ward, Sirin's body froze suddenly, and the very familiar voice in her memory resurfaced again, making her at a loss as to what to do.

I had already made all the preparations before I came...

Sensing Xilin's nervousness, Yaeji said, "Do you still remember what I told you?"

"Yeah." Sirin pursed her lips and saw her mother again. She needed a new persona, not an "enemy of mankind".

At least not let mother know how she lived these years, otherwise...

Xilin looked up at Yazhongji who was beside her, who was familiar yet unfamiliar...

Sirin, who was full of distracting thoughts, turned the doorknob, pushed the door open and entered.

The gazes of Sirin and Likoa intertwined, and the eye sockets were unconsciously rosy, as if mist was brewing in those star pupils.

Likoa was a little confused. In her memory of Sirin, she was still young, and the girl who looked like Sirin in her sight made her more confused.

However, she still knew Yaeji next to the girl. After all, apart from the clothes she was wearing, the other party had changed very little.

"Aji, this..."

"mom!"

Likoa, who was sitting up, was about to ask Yae Ji, when the girl rushed into her arms with a cry.

"Mom~ woo woo~ It's great that you're fine. Really, woo woo~ I thought Brother A Ji was lying to me, he... woo woo woo~"

After being dazed for a moment, Likoa hugged Sirin tightly, put her slender hands on Sirin's head, and comforted her daughter like before.

Familiarity can't go wrong, even if Likoa doesn't think it's all that real.

"Okay, okay, Sirin, be good~ You're already an adult, why are you still crying?" Likoa held up Sirin's pear-blossoming and rainy face, and kept wiping away the crystal clear teardrops with her thumbs .

"Woo~ Xi, Xilin thought I'd never see you again. You don't know, they...they...I... woo woo woo~"

Years of depression turned into tears, and Xilin, who had found support, wept loudly.

Li Keya had no choice but to bury her daughter's little head in her shoulder and pat Sirin's back with the palm of her hand to calm her daughter's broken emotions.

In fact, she also wanted to cry for no reason, but there was still Yaeji standing in the ward, and in front of the younger generation, she still had to have the necessary restraint.

Hearing Sirin's wanton crying, Likoa's eyes were only red.

Yaeji is a bit embarrassed? It stands to reason that he shouldn't stand here and disturb the reunion of the mother and daughter, but he is also afraid that Xilin will say the wrong thing when he is emotional...

Seeing Likoa looking at him, Yaeji put the fruit basket in his hand on the cabinet, and gave Likoa an awkward but polite smile.

"Sister...it's a long story."

Did he and Likoa, Sirin and others have different names? He looked about twenty years old in appearance, and it was normal to call Likoa "sister" at that time.

But Sirin insisted on calling him "Brother"? Even though Likoya corrected him several times, Sirin still went her own way, and then both sides called him in their own way.

"Ah Ji? I'm sorry to trouble you these years." Likoa looked serious and her eyes were full of gratitude.

"Sister? You already know?" In order not to be so embarrassed, Yaeji pulled up a chair, took out an apple from the fruit basket, and took the fruit knife from where he didn't know where to find it in the other hand, and started Peel the apples.

Likoa rolled her eyes at Yachongji? "Your boy hasn't changed. Sirin is so tall? I'm not blind."

Yaeji smiled? Compared with the past, Likoa's physical fitness is completely different? In the past, she was weak and could only speak a few words, looking like a sick beauty, but now her expressions are normal, and her words Can make jokes at will, without being weak at all.

Li Keya hugged Sirin, and looked at Yaeji with softer eyes.

In her subconscious mind, the reason why she didn't die was most likely due to the effect of Yaeji. Xilin grew up so big, and she didn't seem to have been wronged in terms of skin and figure.

'It seems that my original choice was right. 'The loving expression on Likoa's face became more and more intense, and she became more and more satisfied with Yae Ji.

If Likoa knew the real story...

Yachongji, who was sitting there peeling apples, was a little dazed. Deep in his memory, it seemed that a vague figure had smiled at him like that.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Sirin held back her tears and got up from Likoa's warm embrace.

"Mom~" Sirin pursed her lips and shouted again.

Likoya: "Hey~ My little Xilin has grown up, but it's a pity that my mother didn't grow up with you."

When it comes to growing up, the darkness in the depths of memory emerges, and the tears that Xilin has just held back are about to flow out again.

Thinking of Yazhongji's repeated instructions, Xilin opened her mouth, but still didn't say anything.

Compared with the memory, the mother in front of me looks younger, and she looks like she is in her early twenties. The feeling of weakness has completely disappeared, and there is still a strange energy in her body. Sirin knows that it is this energy that makes her mother have a healthy body.

"Aji." Likoa put her eyes on Yazhongji and asked, "How many years is this year?"

"Year 2000." Yazhong Ji said.

"It's been a century since I woke up." Likoya joked, "It's like a god in myths and legends."

"Haha, it's okay, sister, you are still young, and the days to come are early." Yazhongji turned the blade in his hand, and the apple peel that was connected into a strip fell into the trash can, and then cut into small pieces with the knife and put them on the plate. Insert a toothpick and deliver it to the two of them.

"Sister, eat some fruit."

"Thank you." Li Keya smiled even more, "Aji, you can eat too."

Yae Ji: "Alright~ I can do it myself!"

Sirin pursed her lips. For some reason, she felt like an outsider. Mother spent significantly longer time watching Brother Aji than seeing her, and Brother Aji seemed to care more about his mother...

"Sireen."

Hearing someone calling her, Sirin, who was secretly angry, raised her head and found a inserted apple in front of her mouth.

Moving the line of sight upwards, it is the smiling face of Yazhongji.

Sirin opened her mouth and bit off the fruit piece, chewing bitterly.

Likoa's eyes turned back and forth on her daughter and Yaeji, and the warm motherly smile on her face couldn't be hidden no matter what.

From her point of view, her daughter and Aji's actions are flowing like clouds and flowing water. If they hadn't lived together for a long time, they wouldn't have such a tacit understanding.

Yaeji sat for a while, saw that Xilin's mood returned to normal, and reminded her several times with his eyes, and then smiled and said to Likoa: "Sister, you talk first, I will go outside and talk to the doctor .”

Watching Yazhongji leave, Likoa and Sirin talked about these years, and Xilin told her mother the story given by Yazhongji.

She also doesn't want to tell her mother about her tragic experience... Today, the most important thing is happiness.

Likoa kept nodding, and when Sirin talked about happy things, she smiled; when she talked about the trough, she encouraged, and when it came to... Likoa inserted a few words from time to time, as if she had participated in it Daughter's growth.

As everyone knows...all these joys, anger, sorrows, and joys are all fake.

Time is silent, and the two people in the ward seem to have returned to the past...

"By the way." Seeing that the timeline of the story was almost at the end, Likoa interjected and asked, "Sirin, what do you... think of your Brother A Ji?"
