Chapter 708 A Photo Unforgettable Memories

Paige Carter, the departure of this woman who has a stunning life is already an irreversible thing. She firmly believes in God in this life, but God cannot give her eternal life. However, for this woman, her life is without regrets.

Because she loved a man, and until the last moment of her life, this man was also with her. For all the women in the world, this was a rare lucky thing. Although she only got all this at the last moment of her life, it was enough to make her leave the world with relief.

She left with a smile, but for the captain, it was enough to make him feel regretful for the rest of his life. The awakening seventy years later was not a comedy reunion, but another farewell. Such a reality was really a huge blow to this man.

This blow made him completely lose his soul in the next few days, and he could only live like a walking corpse until the day of Peggy's funeral.

Because of the bad environment in the United States, there were not many politicians at Pepilla’s funeral, whether it was military or government. Even though Pepilla had the identity of the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., there was not much change.

But on the contrary, under this situation, a group of old people of great age came to this inconspicuous funeral. Most of these people were Peggy's former comrades and subordinates. Their arrival also added a bit of solemnity to this simple funeral.

Because it is not easy to come to attend this funeral, because the current situation in the United States is not only political, but also spread to every part of the country. It can be said that just going out, it has reached the point of being worried. However, this is enough to show that they are really mourning, not with special political purposes. This sincere emotion is enough to make this funeral meaningful.

However, all this had nothing to do with the captain. He just sat silently in the first row, staring at Peggy's coffin like a statue. Even if a former comrade stood beside him and greeted him, he did not respond at all. It was as if for him, everything in this world had nothing to do with him.

Of course, this kind of behavior is rude. But the old people who came to greet him had no intention of blame. They just sighed and shook their heads. Then they came to Paige's niece Sharon Carter and presented her with their final condolences.

Paige has been waiting for the captain's return all his life. She was not married and naturally had no children. Her niece became her rightful successor. Sharon Carter also fulfilled this duty well. She responded seriously to the longing of every old man, and made Paige's voice and appearance remembered forever as much as possible.

Of course, this funeral cannot be endless. With everyone's departure, Peggy's coffin was buried under the tombstone, and her life finally came to an end and was completely settled. The dead have a place to go, while the living must live their own lives.

So in the end, only Captain and Sharon were left in front of the tombstone.

Looking at this man who was still immersed in his own world, Sharon had almost no idea what he should do to be right. Maybe he should pull him out or do the opposite. She was a little hesitant, but in the end, she decided to pull him out of it. Because she believed that his aunt must have thought so.

Captain America has his own responsibilities and tasks. He cannot stay in this place forever and miss a completely ended relationship for a dead person.

So, she mustered up the courage to interrupt the captain's immersion in his own world.

"I think Aunt Paige might not want to see you like this?"

"I know!" After staying silent for a long time, Sharon received a response from the captain. Just like a sound from the deep hole, the sound made people feel a deep sadness when they heard it. "But, would you please give me the last day? Or, give me another time for a song. I promised her to ask her to dance another dance, but I didn't expect that seventy years have passed, and this promise still cannot be fulfilled."

"It's not your fault, captain. Those things happened that none of us could have expected. Moreover, for the aunt, the dance you promised would not be important for your return. You wouldn't know how happy my aunt was when she knew you woke up from the ice."

"In my impression, Aunt Paige has always been a serious person. She is very successful, so successful that people can only look up to me. I have always regarded her as an idol and tried my best to move towards her. I have never imagined that she would be so disobedient. Although the pain was tormenting her body at that time, I could see the joy that revealed deep in my heart. Captain, for my aunt, knowing you is a very lucky thing."

"I'm sorry, please stop talking, okay?"

Suddenly interrupted Sharon's memory of Peggy, and the captain's brow gradually appeared in his uncontrollable sadness and powerlessness. His eyes began to fluctuate, and even his tall body trembled in such words. This is a hero, a recognized hero. But in the face of feelings, he is fragile and normal.

If he peeled off the mask on him, he was an ordinary person. A poor guy who could not extricate himself from leaving because of some important person.

This understanding made Sharon feel a lot of pity in his heart. No matter what, she is a woman, and women are always particularly tolerant of such men who are fragile because of love, with tough guys and heroes.

So at this time, she really wanted to give the man in front of her some comfort, even if she said some warm words, as long as she could make his heart feel better. However, when she wanted to open her mouth, she found that she had almost nothing to say.

Her understanding of everything that happened seventy years ago was too thin, and she knew nothing about the rose of love that bloomed in the war but withered faster. Ignorance left her withered no say, and that empty comfort was just a blasphemy of this relationship here.

And she would not do such a thing. Whether it was because of respect for the person in front of her or her deep feelings for her aunt, she would not do such a thing. So she also fell silent. It was not until a long time later that the continuous rain soaked her black dress that she suddenly said to the captain as if she was remembering something.

"By the way, there is something I should probably show you. It's the relics of Aunt Paige, something very important to her."

After saying this, Sharon ran to his car without waiting for the captain to give any reaction, and found a special existence from the relics that were packed out of the Paige.

It was a photo, an old black and white photo. In the photo, the young Peggy stood in the center with a heroic figure, and beside her, the captain who looked more like a costume looked completely at a loss. It can be seen that he was very awkward at that time because he didn't dare to look in the direction of the camera, but quietly turned his attention to the female officer beside him.

Paige didn't look at the camera. She was staring at her with her light without the captain's knowledge. At the same time, the corner of her mouth slightly raised, with an inexplicable smile, which made her look particularly bright.

In terms of the photo, this photo is not a success. Because the two characters in it do not cooperate with the photographer's work very well. But for the captain, this photo represents the most beautiful memory.

He took the photo from Sharon's hand, then his eyes were blurred, as if he had flew to a very distant place. Even his voice began to regain his vitality.

"This was the first time I was officially on duty. At that time, I had just entered the enemy's backbone alone and completed a rescue work. Almost everyone believed that I could not be back. But only Carter, she always believed that I would come back. To be honest, I was not sure, but in the end, I did not disappoint her."

"Since then, I finally started to be active on the battlefield as a warrior. But before that, something more important and more exciting to me happened. Paige agreed to date me, just at the end of this mission. Did you know? It was my first date in my life and I was really excited."

"I don't know there is such a story in it. No wonder my aunt laughs every time she sees this photo."

Sharon answered quietly, and at the same time, she began to describe the love story of the war years in her mind.

Women always think about this kind of thing, and the captain didn't mean to interrupt her. He just quietly stroked the woman who smiled very brightly in the photo, and recalled every part of her in his memory.

It was a happy thing and a sad thing. Memory cannot be replaced, but the person in memory will become the past and become a piece of dust. He is still alive, but she is already dead. This is undoubtedly the greatest irony of fate to them.

The captain had no way to do this. He could not forget the past, nor could he leave everything behind and follow Paige's footsteps. So he could only touch the photo and make such a request to Sharon.

"A long time ago, I also had a photo. It was given to me by Paige. Unfortunately, when I fell into the ice sea, the photo also lost its trace. So, can I give this photo to me?"

The captain's eyes were almost entirely pleading, and in the face of such pleading, Sharon had no reason to refuse. She could only nod and silently sent her blessings to the man in front of her.

And got the answer he wanted. The captain smiled hard and turned around with the photo.

"Thank you. Goodbye. Goodbye Sharon. Goodbye, Paige!"

After saying this, he left straight away and disappeared into the rain without looking back. (To be continued ~^~)
