Xiao Xiao raised his feet and walked towards the window sill.
The little girl followed hesitantly.
The expression on his face was somewhat confused.
Um……
She knew that her elder brother wanted to talk to her.
So here they are.
So, what are they going to talk about?
The girl felt a little curious in her heart.
This also diluted a bit her disappointment and sadness of not seeing the strawberry.
…
The window was already open.
It's a nice sunny day today.
Xiao Xiao's upper body slightly leaned out of the window sill and waved in one direction.
Then, he turned to look at the girl.
"Qiqi."
"Look, who is this?"
The girl who had been watching Xiao Xiao's every move had no time to wonder about these words. The next second, her eyes suddenly widened, and a fiery red figure reflected in her dark pupils.
strawberry?!
The girl opens her mouth.
cried silently.
The look on his face was one of surprise and joy.
Strawberry, strawberry...is it a strawberry?!
The girl trots forward.
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand to help the girl steady herself in front of the window sill.
He stood on the window sill, quite carelessly.
But he lowered his eyes and looked at the girl.
Then he slapped his mouth because of the girl's clumsiness.
This idiot.
…
The girl's eyes curved into crescent shapes.
He stretched out his hand to touch the strawberry.
But due to the height limitation, it was a little short.
The girl stood on tiptoes.
The next second, she found the strawberry right in front of her eyes.
Then she realized that she was being picked up by Brother Xiao.
Strawberry~
The girl reached out and tentatively touched the red hair.
His big black eyes were staring at Strawberry's face.
When the fingertips finally felt soft, a small dimple appeared on the girl's cheek.
The girl carefully stroked the strawberry's hair.
So soft~
The girl's face is full of love.
…
Huan Ru's body was a little stiff at first.
Slowly, its expression relaxed.
If it weren't for the cautious look on the girl's face and the bright light of "I want to touch, I want to touch..." in her two big eyes...
If not, maybe this is the last time they meet...
His fierce eyes turned aside slightly.
Not just anyone can touch its fur.
…
When the girl finally took back her hand with some satisfaction, Xiao Xiao slowly opened her mouth.
"Qiqi."
The girl looked up at Xiao Xiao, with a lingering blush and smile on her face.
"Strawberry is here to say goodbye to you."
The blush on the girl's face slowly faded, and the corners of her mouth straightened.
bid farewell?
The girl opened her mouth, but couldn't express her question.
Her eyes turned red instantly.
...
"Qiqi."
Xiao Xiao reached out and gently touched the child's head.
The warmth on the top of her head calmed the girl's mood a bit.
However, the girl grabbed Xiao Xiao's clothes, tightening her fingers tighter and tighter, and the clothes were pulled into a ball by her.
She felt nothing.
She looked at the strawberry, then at Brother Xiao, her previously open mouth was tightly pursed.
Strawberry...are you leaving?
She was just happy to finally see strawberries again, but...
Is today the last time we meet?
Will we never see each other again?
The girl couldn't help biting her lower lip.
The slight pain made her confused brain become clearer.
She pulled Xiao Xiao's clothes.
Mouth opens and closes.
only......
No sound came out.
the girl yelled.
Still silent.
Big tears fell from the corners of the girl's eyes.
The girl cried.
Quiet, yet broken.
She had never thought that being unable to speak had anything to do with it before.
Occasionally, she even felt that there was nothing wrong with being unable to make a sound.
This way she won't scream when she feels pain.
This way she can ignore the annoying people.
In this way, she seems to be more tolerant...
However, what happened in the past few days made her feel that it was really bad not to be able to speak.
She wants to talk.
She wanted to make a sound.
For example, now, she was so eager to ask Brother Xiao why Strawberry left, but she had no choice.
She couldn't make a sound.
Her writing pad is outside in the living room.
How can she let Brother Xiao know about her problem?
...
The girl cried so suddenly that Xiao Xiao was a little stunned.
Then, he sighed slightly and took out a few pieces of paper from the paper box on the desk next to him.
He carefully helped the girl wipe the tears from her face.
But the constant tears soon soaked the tissue paper.
"do not Cry."
Xiao Xiao threw the soaked tissue into the trash can.
He comforted the child softly, "Why are you crying?"
"Don't you want Strawberry to leave?"
The girl raised her hand and wiped the tears from her face.
Red eyes, red nose.
He looked quite embarrassed and pitiful.
Xiao Xiao reached out and held the child's wrist, stopping the child from continuing to wipe the tears on his face.
"If you use such force, be careful of getting hurt."
...
"Gee~"
The one who had been quiet all this time let out a roar.
The girl's tears made her body suddenly stiffen.
It stared blankly at the girl's tears.
It's not the first time it's seen human tears.
The girl had cried in front of it before, for various reasons.
However, I never cried because of it.
This girl... is crying now because of it, right?
Huan Ru's mood is a bit complicated.
...
Hearing a familiar voice, the girl turned her head and looked over.
strawberry.
The girl stretched out her hand in a violent direction.
Tears are still falling.
The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
The look of crying and laughing made Xuanru irritably scratch the window sill a few times.
"Gee~"
Huanrui nudged the girl's hand with his head.
The tickling feeling made the girl couldn't help laughing.
...
The girl wanted to take her hand back, but was reluctant to do so.
She closed her hands slightly and touched Strawberry's head.
She was very happy that Strawberry was so close to her.
...
"Qiqi."
Xiao Xiao's voice seemed to wake up the girl.
The girl instantly remembered the fact that Strawberry was about to leave.
The corners of my eyes are hot.
Hotter liquid flows from it.
She had the illusion of being burned.
She stretched out her hand and rubbed the corners of her eyes vigorously.
Xiao Xiao took the girl's hand and said, "Don't rub it."
The girl opened her eyes wide and looked stunned.
"Did Qiqi just want to ask why Strawberry left?"
The girl's eyes opened wider and wider.
A look of surprise.
How did Brother Xiao know?
"Guess."
Xiao Xiao chuckled.
The girl was even more surprised.
Guess?
Brother Xiao is really awesome.
Because Xiao Xiao guessed the question the girl wanted to ask, the girl's mood improved slightly.
...
"Qiqi."
Xiao Xiao glanced at the blue sky outside the window. The sky was high and the clouds were vast, and the sky was as clear as water.
The sun is pouring down.
Through the canopy of criss-crossing branches and leaves, mottled shadows fall.
"Strawberry is coming home."
Xiao Xiao finally chose a statement that was easiest for girls to understand.
go home?
The girl was stunned.
"Well, the strawberry has been out for a long time, and it wants to go home."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows were slightly curved, revealing a faint smile.
