Chapter 816(1/2)
Life
"It's time for dinner, kids!"
Andrelin wiped her hands dry and shouted loudly in the direction upstairs. As soon as Roger stood up, a girl poked out half of her body from outside the door.
"Come on, my mother baked her best cookies tonight. We must be faster, otherwise we will definitely be Jack..."
"Hmph, I knew you would come and call Roger for dinner as soon as possible." A boy leaned over and leaned over with a teasing smile on his face.
"WOW, I understand, you must..."
"Shut up!" The red-haired girl grabbed the boy's collar roughly. But she quickly realized something, turned her head and squeezed out an embarrassing smile at Roger.
"You guys go down first, I'll be there later." Roger didn't expect that as a time traveler, he would one day integrate into a strange family.
After leaving the island, he was taken to the police station in Bay Town. His origin was not found in his memory. Roger was in a very embarrassing situation. If it weren't for the fact that this place was not a border area, he would have been regarded as a stowaway.
Fortunately, he met the kind Anderin, and then he came here in a daze.
The town has a simple custom, close to the beach and the temperature is suitable. I have to say that this place is a very livable place. Not long after I came here, Roger integrated into it.
Both Andrelin, as well as her children Amanda and Jack, welcomed Roger's arrival.
As a time traveler, Roger failed to find anything special in himself, and he could only treat this place as a stranger to start from scratch.
Thinking about things in my mind, Roger had already come downstairs to sit at the dining table.
"What's wrong? I can't get used to it..."
A gentle voice sounded, and Roger came to his senses at this time and shook his head in a hurry.
"No, I'm just thinking about the wooden house in the woods. The damaged one is really serious. It's really a bit of trouble to repair it."
Roger had to change the subject.
"Boys just can't stay idle." Anderin smiled, "I'll have a big holiday soon, and we can buy tools and go there to help you together."
"Great!" Jack raised his hands to agree.
Every boy may long for his own secret base.
"Are you still used to school life?"
Anderin changed the subject.
"Everything is fine." Roger replied while picking up some salad in the plate.
"It's very good, especially Teacher Anna who guides our history." Amanda suddenly interrupted.
"Teacher Anna?" Andelin was stunned at first, but soon corresponded to a certain face in her memory.
"Is it the Anna from the Liyeta family?"
"Who else?" Amanda curled his lips.
"I don't know why, Anna seems to care about Roger very much. I see that she has talked to Roger privately more than once. To be honest, I really can't think of anything to guide about history."
There was a sour smell in her tone, and Andrelin obviously also heard the emotions in her daughter's tone, but Xiaoxiao didn't say much.
"It's about some history of the town. It is said that their family was almost established with this town. Seeing that I was interested in this, Teacher Anna lent me a few books passed down by their family." Roger explained a few words.
He couldn't say why, but the surrounding environment and life made him extremely comfortable, and some of them always made him feel familiar.
"I have also heard that in addition to history, your grades in other subjects are also excellent. According to this trend, you are likely to enter a prestigious school in the future." Anderlin encouraged a few words casually.
"Oh, by the way, where are Ivy and Kant, have you been there recently?"
"Ivy has a good impression of you. To be honest, it is a blessing that you can meet them on the sea, so if time allows you can go to them more."
"I will." Roger smiled awkwardly.
Ivy had a good impression of him, but Kant... seemed not too far from disgust.
It seems that there was a grudge between the two of them in their previous lives, and they are always a little out of place. Kant will not be able to help but get angry shortly after getting along.
Roger had no choice but to do so.
After dinner, Roger returned to his room. The window in front of his desk was opposite the road. At this time, the sky was a little darker and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the street.
The town is not big and there is no nightlife at night, so at this time, there are already very few pedestrians on the street.
Roger opened the window and let the sea breeze blow into the room with a little moisture.
The life of time travel is calm, without any golden fingers or any strange things. Just like his life in his previous life, it is ordinary and ordinary.
Looking at the gradually dimming streets, the inexplicable logic was a little melancholy.
He couldn't tell where this emotion came from, but it was hard to be happy.
It was as if he had missed something important, and something equally important.
"Ordinary is a blessing." Roger could only comfort himself in this way.
"I should indeed visit Ivy's house tomorrow. By the way, there is also the small house in the forest, which must be repaired as soon as possible."
Roger suddenly remembered the dilapidated hut he had found while wandering. According to people in the town, there was a manor there a long time ago, and later it was abandoned and turned into a cemetery.
Roger also asked Anna to borrow notes and check it out, but he failed to find the so-called evidence in the notes of Anna's family.
Although the environment is suitable, the town is surrounded by the sea and forests, so it is not surprising that a hut in the forest like this is here.
But for some reason, Roger particularly liked that place.
Some moldy wooden boards, humid air, and the area around the hut that was supposed to be a cemetery amid the discussion.
All of this made him feel at ease.
Just like home.
"Since God has given me a new life, it is not in vain to live a good life."
Before turning off the lights and going to bed to rest, Roger silently cheered himself up.
Time flies, and Roger's face is gradually accepted by the residents of the entire Bay Town. He lives and studies here, secretly helping Amanda climb over the window and jump over the wall, and risking being discovered by Andrelin to attend a dance organized by senior students.
Occasionally he will try to keep himself young and try some exciting projects, but more often he likes to be alone.
Although the residents here are friendly, he also made many friends. Even Amanda forced Roger into the corner in the corridor and left a mark on his lips.
At home, she tried to pretend to be with Roger, but after leaving the house, she became unscrupulous.
The girl's heart was as passionate as the color of her hair.
Roger likes everything in this town, likes Amanda, likes the friends he has made now, and cherishes everyone's kindness to him.
But for some reason, he just doesn't like himself now.
The warmth around him was like a wall, suffocating him.
When he was hiding alone in the hunter's hut, he would habitually lie on the hard and even a little uncomfortable wooden bed, rubbing the rough patterns of the wooden bed with his fingers.
Sometimes he would suddenly look in the room like crazy.
But after a while of trouble, he could only sit on the ground dejectedly, staring at the house that was messed up by himself in a daze.
And he couldn't share these things with anyone.
So a huge sense of loneliness enveloped him.
But in the eyes of outsiders, he is a good student with both good character and academic performance, an honest and reliable brother, a romantic... and strong boyfriend.
It's the best one in everyone's eyes.
Life continues.
A few years later, Roger completed his high school with excellent grades and was admitted to a prestigious school in Bordeaux.
The person responsible for teaching him was Professor Henrik, who was very famous in the academic world, and this alone was enough to arouse jealousy from many people.
After all, he is famous, but Professor Henrik has not personally coached students for many years.
Although Amanda did not enter a prestigious university, she was admitted to an excellent university, so the two of them moved out of Bay Town.
I rented an apartment in the closest place to two universities and lived a life of two stays and two rests.
They did not quarrel frequently in college like many couples, and there were no bloody love accidents during this period.
Graduated step by step.
Roger's grades were very good, and Henrik's guidance was famous as soon as he graduated, but he strangely refused the offer from many companies and chose to stay in school to continue his studies.
He could have reached the peak of his workplace and become a wealthy elite. Even Roger himself once thought this was his wish.
But when he was really facing a choice, he stayed without hesitation.
Some people think it is because of Amanda, and some people think it is because he wants to be closer to Andrelin. Of course, these are one of the reasons why Roger chose to stay.
But deep down, Roger knew very well that he didn't want to go anywhere, he just wanted to stay in Bordeaux.
In the third year after graduation, he and Amanda got married smoothly and lived a happy life after marriage. Even if he did not choose another career path, Roger's existing achievements were enough to make his family worry-free.
He bought a castle-style building in Bordeaux that is said to have been passed down for a century. Not only that, he also has his real estate in Bay Town, Swamp Town and other places.
But more often, Roger still likes to return to Bay Town, where he often walks alone on the street and walks alone in the woods.
To be continued...
