The key was inserted into the door, and he twisted desperately, trying to open the door, but the door seemed to be locked, and no matter how hard he turned the key, he could not open it.
"Bang bang bang..."
He hit the door with his shoulder, but it still didn't move.
"What's going on?"
"Meow~"
A soft meow came from behind.
He turned his head and saw the kitten that was in the box just now.
Did you follow him upstairs?
"Meow~"
The kitten walked to his feet, rubbed them, then bit his trousers and pulled them back.
"You...are asking me to come with you?"
"Meow~"
The cat seemed to be able to understand what he was saying. It loosened his pants, nodded, then waggled its tail and led the way downstairs, turning back and barking at him from time to time.
Xuan Hao froze on the spot, frowning tightly, his hand still resting on the door handle.
He felt that his memory was a little confused, and he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
The memories that had just flooded into his mind were overwhelming and majestic, making him feel extremely real, and the doorknob he was holding in his hand was cold to the bone, seeming to remind him that this was reality.
"Meow meow!"
The kitten on the stairs meowed a little anxiously, seeming to be telling him to hurry up and catch up. If he slowed down, it would be too late.
And he really wanted to open the door and take a look at that long-lost face again.
"Dong dong dong..."
He gently locked the door and asked softly, "Xiaoya... are you there?"
No one responded.
Shadows gradually enveloped his body, the sky became darker, and the night seemed to be coming soon.
"It turns out he's really gone..."
For some reason, a stream of heat slid down from the corners of his eyes.
He suddenly let go of the door handle, turned around and took a step downstairs.
But he stopped again, turned around, and looked at the familiar door, tightly closed, as if it would never open again, and there was no way he could go back...
He tried to walk to the door again, but his steps were extremely heavy.
The kitten came to his feet again and pulled him.
well……
He sighed softly, leaned down and gently picked up the cat, "Thank you."
He touched the cat's head.
He turned around and continued walking downstairs. This time he didn't look back. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nostalgic, but people can't live in memories.
He felt that his steps gradually became lighter, and it seemed that this was the right path.
When he arrived at the gate of the community, the cat suddenly jumped out of his arms and ran forward.
Beautiful girl squats down and picks up the kitten.
The girl stood up, smiled at him and stretched out her hand.
He reached out his hand involuntarily.
The girl suddenly took his hand and pulled him out of the door.
The girl held his hand, and their backs were getting further and further away from the community.
"Let's go, there's no need to look back, we will meet again in the distant future."
A gentle voice sounded in his ears, and he turned back to look at the dilapidated small building deep in the community in the distance.
"It is indeed a dream..."
Xuan Hao slowly opened his eyes, feeling that his face was wet, and wanted to reach out to wipe away the tears on his face.
But I felt that my hand was being held by someone.
He turned his head and looked at Xia Mi, who was lying beside his bed, holding his hand and falling asleep. It seemed that he had worried the girl in his sleep.
"It turns out you are really pulling me..."
Touching the girl's sleeping face, I found that this beautiful girl also had tears hanging from the corners of her eyes for some reason.
…
Lying on the bed were two gray-haired old men.
The old and frail faces indicate that their time is running out.
The old woman's long gray hair has lost the beauty and luster of her youth, but the old man beside her still holds her hand as before.
After an unknown amount of time, the old woman, who had squinted her eyes slightly, opened her somewhat cloudy eyes and looked calmly at the old man lying next to her.
The old man looked at her with a calm smile on his lips.
"Will you accompany me when we get there?"
She stretched out her hand and touched the old man's old face.
"certainly."
The old man didn't say anything like "I can still save her" like when he was young. He just looked at her quietly, touched her hand, and nodded slowly.
Two old, wrinkled palms overlapped together, as if they would never be separated again.
The old woman's face flushed with blood at this moment, as if she had returned to her youthful appearance because of the old man's words. However, anyone with a little bit of medical experience knows that this is the so-called return of light.
The old woman looked at the old man in front of her with a smile, her eyes motionless, as if she wanted to carve this face into her soul, and she would still see him even in hell.
Countless memories seemed to become clearer, and a young and handsome face appeared in front of her eyes, overlapping with the old man in front of her. How many years had it passed? Time is really a wonderful thing, it has changed many things.
But the only thing that remains unchanged is this man's promise to her, which is a precious thing that even time cannot erase.
They agreed that no matter what, they would stay with each other until the end of the world.
But why is she here? Both of them are obviously immortal...but this seems pretty good.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of the old woman's mouth. Perhaps it would be better for her to live an ordinary and happy life with him like this than for her to see all the vicissitudes of the world alone.
However, I still want to be with him...
Her eyelids became very heavy.
The next moment, the old woman had a faint smile on her face, and her hand slid down from the old man's face.
Just before he landed on the bed, he was gently caught by the old man.
Outside the window, the brilliant summer flowers bloomed, still so beautiful.
Endless darkness shrouded the girl and she fell asleep in the darkness.
She felt that her whole body was floating in endless darkness, and there was only loneliness and silence around her. She could not find the direction, could not see the end, and could not hear the sound.
The girl hugged her knees and curled up into a ball like a cat. She seemed to be almost used to such eternal darkness, recalling everything she encountered in the world when she was awake.
There seems to be nothing worth remembering.
But suddenly a light shone in her ears, and a hole seemed to break in the dark space. A familiar voice came from there, which reminded her that she was also a loved child.
"Sure enough, you still want to be with me?"
A familiar and gentle voice reached her ears, and the warm wind tickled her ears.
Xia Mi opened her eyes and found that the man's hand was gently wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"It turns out it's true..."
"of course it's true."
"I had a very long dream last night."
"What a coincidence, so am I."
The two looked at each other and smiled, with happy smiles on their faces.
When I wake up in the morning, having you by my side is the future I want.
