The child put one foot on the bus step and turned to look at them.
"Aren't you going to get in the car?"
"Isn't it this car?"
There was an uncertain look on the child's face.
…
The two old men looked up at the license plate number.
"It's this one."
The two old men hurriedly got into the car.
They smiled sheepishly at the driver.
They were a little distracted.
Neither of them noticed that the car they were going to take arrived.
Thanks to this kid for reminding them…
…
The two old men and their children sat down in the empty seats.
The child sits alone in the front, near the exit door.
Two old men sat in the back.
They looked at the child's back.
The eyes are complicated.
The child's performance made them relieved, but also more and more worried.
…
As long as the child's parents are not mentioned, there will be no problems with the child.
…
is this okay?
This is certainly good if the problem cannot be solved quickly.
As long as they block one topic, they can solve everything.
But……
The more normal a child behaves in other aspects, the more serious the abnormality regarding his parents will be highlighted.
…
The two old men were puzzled. There was obviously nothing wrong with this child.
Can communicate with people normally.
He is a good boy who is polite and smart.
Why……
The sudden death of mom and dad is really a huge blow to this child...
Thinking of this, the two old men felt even more pity for the child.
…
Because the doctor had to come over for dinner in the evening, after going home and having lunch, the two old people went out to the vegetable market to buy ingredients for dinner.
The child stayed at home.
The two old men hesitated for a while whether to leave one person to look after the child?
…
In the end they felt it was unnecessary.
As long as there are no issues involving parents, the children are very good.
They warned the child a few words, then turned and left the house.
They pulled the door handle to make sure it was properly locked.
…
Although they thought this way, the two old men quickly bought the ingredients for the evening and hurried back home.
…
They were slightly relieved to see their children watching cartoons on TV intently.
…
Two old men were busy in the kitchen preparing the evening dishes.
No one has visited their home for a long time.
Although for the sake of their children, they also put a lot of thought into their daily ingredients.
But after all, it is different from treating guests.
…
The two old men refused the children's help.
Just one guest is enough for the two of them.
No more help from the children is needed.
…
As time passed by, white smoke steamed up in the kitchen, and the alluring aroma wafted out.
…
At some point, the child was lying at the door of the kitchen.
A look of salivation on his face.
"smell good."
…
The two old men laughed.
"You can eat it after a while."
…
"...Lele."
Grandma Yu hesitated for a while and finally spoke.
…
The child who was staring at the pot tilted his head and said, "Huh?"
…
Grandma Yu took a deep breath.
"..."
No sound was made.
Grandma Yu clenched her fist in frustration.
…
Grandma Yu looked at Grandpa Yu.
Seeing the old man looking at the pot intently, Grandma Yu bumped Grandpa Yu with her elbow.
…
Grandpa Yu was helpless.
He glanced at Grandma Yu.
Grandma Yu glared and whispered, "Say it quickly."
What time is it...?
I wonder if the doctor is off work?
Have you been waiting for their call?
…
Grandpa Yu looked at the child.
"Lele."
Grandpa Yu’s voice was deep.
"It's almost time. Are mom and dad back?"
…
The old man's concise and concise question made the old lady slightly stunned.
Then he nodded silently in his heart.
That's right.
You need to be more direct with the child.
Besides, this is not a problem at all for children.
Don’t children just believe that their parents will still come home from get off work every day?
…
The child tilted his head.
"not yet."
…
"not yet?"
Grandpa Yu frowned.
"When do they usually come back?"
…
The child stepped back and looked at the clock in the living room.
"...maybe in a while?"
"If mom and dad work overtime, they will come back late."
…
work overtime?
The two old men looked at each other.
Although I already knew it...
But they still couldn't help but sigh: This child is really living like the past... when his parents were still alive... like that...
This is too detailed and too real.
Can human imagination really achieve this?
Really...can you deceive yourself to this extent?
…
they do not know.
…
The child left the kitchen.
He said he was going to wait for his parents to come back.
…
"...Do you want to call the doctor now?"
After the child's back disappeared, Grandma Yu looked at Grandpa Yu.
…
"let's hit."
Grandpa Yu hesitated for a while.
Then nodded.
"It's getting late."
"It will take time for the doctor to come."
"Wait until the child says that mom and dad are here before calling the doctor. It's too late."
…
"Um."
Grandma Yu nodded.
Too.
…
Grandma Yu took out her mobile phone.
She dialed the number.
The call was quickly answered.
"Hello, doctor."
"Have you gotten off work?"
"You can come here."
"…...No."
"Lele said that mom and dad haven't arrived yet."
"……See you later."
…
Grandma Yu put away her phone.
"The doctor is here."
…
"good."
Grandpa Yu nodded.
…
The empty dining table was gradually filled with plates of dishes.
…
"Ding dong~"
The doorbell rings.
…
The child rushed over first.
…
The two old men walked out of the restaurant.
…
The child's appearance made them think it was the child's parents who rang the doorbell...
…
Parents of children do like to ring the doorbell when they come home.
Even if they all have keys with them.
Whenever the child is at home, he will rush out immediately when he hears the doorbell.
Open the door for mom and dad on tiptoe.
…
The child's parents occasionally bring small gifts to their children.
No matter what day it is.
I just saw it on the street and wanted to buy it, so I bought it.
Or given by others.
For example, a baked sweet potato, a piece of cake, a beautiful flower...
The child will smile and narrow his eyes in surprise.
…
"Mom and Dad!"
The child reached out and opened the door.
Unconsciously, he now only had to stand on tiptoe halfway to open the door.
He has grown taller.
…
"Lele."
The doctor at the door raised his eyebrows.
She raised the bag in her hand.
"This is a cake for you."
“Chocolate mousse cake.”
Because the child liked to eat chocolate during the day, the doctor specially selected this cake.
and……
"This cake is the brand's signature cake."
“Very delicious.”
…
The doctor who appeared at the door dimmed the light in the child's eyes.
