Chapter 294 Abandon your parents

"…………"

After hearing Eve's confession, the young man seemed to be stunned, and he fell into silence.

"..." Eve also looked a little embarrassed at the moment.

The ignorant girl mustered up the courage to express her feelings for the first time, but she believed that she was right in doing so.

Even though her parents always quarreled and argued, their former happiness was deeply engraved in Eve's heart.

She firmly believes that the relationship between husband and wife formed by marriage is the most beautiful relationship in the world.

Eve also believed that her parents always quarreled because life was too hard and tiring. If they didn't pursue a noble life, they wouldn't have such troubles, then they could still be as happy as before.

It’s just that I can no longer persuade them to come back.

However, the life between myself and my uncle didn't seem to be a good one. We were always running away from here and there, and we were always afraid of being discovered. Moreover, our uncle and ourselves were indeed hurt by others.

Moreover, this was the first time Eve saw him showing such a stunned expression, which was very fresh and interesting.

The sudden appearance of his uncle took him away from the world full of darkness and gave him, a confused living self, a goal to live on.

These two words caused Eve's originally determined heart to collapse instantly.

However, this intention is unquestionable.

However, Eve still didn't want to give up. She couldn't help but ask:

The meaning of the young man's words was obvious. He had no intention of staying with Eve from the beginning.

Therefore, even though she was shy, Eve still had endless courage in her heart and wanted to convey her feelings to the other party.

"Uncle... you must feel incredible, right? You think I am joking, but I am serious. I am not joking, nor am I saying it casually and forgetting it when I grow up."

Looking at Eve, the young man's smile also showed a bit of bitterness and helplessness.

Eve asked hurriedly:

"I...can't agree."

I believe that no one would want to live such a life, right?

However, Eve still mustered up the courage to express her feelings to him.

"Leave? Uncle, why are you leaving? Did I do something wrong? I'm sorry... Sure enough, it was because, today..."

"Why, uncle, do you have to leave?"

Therefore, Eve believed that they would not have troubles in life and would definitely be happy together.

"leave?"

"……Eh?"

However, just this little difficulty was not enough to make Eve give up.

"……Feel sorry."

The young man has been silently listening to Eve's confession and her beautiful wishes for the future.

"...It has nothing to do with that."

"I am serious. I really plan to live with you for the rest of my life. I have made up my mind. I will never betray these words."

"But it must be difficult for uncle to accept such a thing, right? After all, no one has ever done such a thing. Everyone says that children are not allowed to do such things, but it doesn't matter, I can wait!"

However, even if Eve didn't want to believe it, it seemed destined that she would break up with the young man.

"When I say I can't agree, I mean that I will leave your side one day, and that day... won't be too far away. So, I can't agree, and I can't make an agreement with you."

However, as long as he is still with his uncle, even so, he still... feels happy.

But at this time, he finally spoke and rejected Eve's confession.

"..."

"..." Eve was not surprised by this answer. She had known for a long time that she would be rejected.

Although this is very taken for granted, one-sided and one-sided, it is just a little girl's naive belief in those simple things under her immature cognition.

The thought of him leaving her frightened her beyond measure.

This is more beautiful than the fairy tales I have read before, but it actually happened to me.

Moreover, even if she abandons her longing for fairy tales, Eve will still regard the uncle who saved her as the only one in her life, and she must have him.

However, the young man still shook his head.

She just asked: "Why? Why can't you agree? Sure enough, it's because I'm a child, so you don't think my words are trustworthy? Then... let's make a promise. In a few years, my body will grow to the point where I'm not as strong as you, uncle." No matter what the difference is, I still will not take back what I said, then we will..."

Seeing that the young man didn't respond for a long time, Eve thought that her words must have frightened him. After all, there was no husband and wife with such a big age gap like them anywhere.

"why?"

However, Eve doesn't want to believe this... Since we have to part ways eventually, why do we still meet?

"Although... I can't catch up with my age, my body can still catch up with you! I will eat well and let my body grow up as soon as possible. When my height is the same as yours... No! To yours When I touch my chest, you don’t have to treat me like a child anymore. At that time, we will..."

"No..." the young man interrupted: "This is something that has been decided a long time ago. It has been decided since the day I took you away."

However, he still answered:

"When the journey will eventually end, our life will also end one day. I am not from here, and I have a place I must go back to. Of course, I cannot stay here forever."

"Where must... go back?"

At this moment, Eve finally realized something.

Different from me, my older uncle must have seen a lot of things and known a lot of people. His world is much broader than my own.

In such a world, uncle must have met someone who can make him feel happy, right? He is not like himself who only causes trouble, can't do anything, and needs help from his uncle for everything, but is someone who actually helps his uncle and even makes him feel dependent.

According to his definition of love, in his heart, he must have already found the one he likes, right?
And the person who allowed him to find the self he liked was not him. The person who could stay in his heart was not himself.

The person he loves is not himself.

Of course, after all, I only spent such a short time with my uncle. This may be very important to me, but to my uncle, it is just a small episode in a long life.

In this case, how could he accept his own intention?
But that's helpless, because the age gap between them has already determined this.

It must be a very happy thing if someone has been by your uncle's side, witnessed his growth and changes, and kept it in your heart as a memory forever.

However, when Eve thought about this, when she thought about who could have such happiness, her heart was filled with pain. When she thought about that person not being herself, her heart seemed to be torn apart. But then, Eve thought that she could never have that kind of happiness no matter what.

Because the age difference between her and him has already determined this.

For the first time, Eve felt that the world was so indifferent and that all human emotions were meaningless.

The sense of emptiness... invaded her heart, giving her an extreme sense of fear that she had never experienced before!

"..." There were tears in the corners of Eve's eyes. She weakly and helplessly asked the young man while sobbing.

"Uncle...why am I me? Why...am I born as a person who cannot be liked by you?"

"........."

The young man showed a helpless smile, touched Eve's little head, and said slowly:

"This is how people live. Dissatisfaction and helplessness always accompany people's life, because the world never responds to people's wishes, it just exists here. Therefore, in addition to accepting it, besides living with all this, , we have no other choice. Besides, didn’t we already agree from the beginning? When you find the one you like, you will make a decision.”

"…………!"

Eve stopped crying because the other party finally said the most important question.

The young man looked at Eve and asked slowly:

"Eve, have you found the person you like?"

"..." After a moment of silence, Eve finally nodded, "Well, I...have found it."

Eve didn't want to lie to him, and she didn't want to hide it from him anymore.

Therefore, Eve stared at the young man and answered with an extremely serious expression:
"The self I... found I like is the person I am when you are by my side, uncle. Only when I am by your side, uncle, do I feel happy. I... should have understood the meaning of love. "

"Really? That's good..."

However, the young man's reaction was still very dull, as indifferent as before.

He then asked slowly:
"Then you can make a choice, whether to go back to your parents or..."

"I..." Eve asked, "Can I continue to stay with you, uncle?"

"No." The young man shook his head and repeated: "The world never responds to people's wishes, and things that are not what you want always accompany you throughout your life. It is inevitable that I have to leave here, there is no choice, and I can't take it with me. you."

"..." Eve lowered her head in despair, "Then in this case, wouldn't I have no other choice but to return to my parents? That's right. If a child leaves his parents, There is no way to achieve happiness.”

"No..." The young man shook his head again, "If you think about it carefully, you will know that there is no basis for such a thing. Now you also understand, right? There is no inevitable reason for parents to fall in love with their children."

"..."

Eve understands this. The words of love her parents said before don't matter to her at this moment.

It's like smoke, intangible, choking, and...annoying.

"But, even so, I can't abandon my parents, right? They are the parents who gave birth to me after all."

However, the young man said: "So what if I give it up?"

"..."

"Being with parents like that will only make the spiral of pain never-ending. The world is so indifferent and many things are meaningless. Live for yourself and there is no problem. As long as you don't hurt others and respond to the kindness of others, that's it. Yes, there is nothing that you have to pay for free. Only selfish people will use all kinds of noble and disgusting reasons to create such things.

Although I will leave, I will arrange everything for you so that you can grow up healthily and live a life of your own. Therefore, there is no need to worry about those unnecessary hypocrisy, just abandon your parents... "

The young man said, extending his hand to Eve.

"..." Then, Eve held his outstretched hand.

"Well...I want to abandon my parents here."

If her parents are as beautiful and kind-hearted as in the story, then there is no need for others to force her. Eve is more willing to be filial to her parents than anyone else, because her parents' happiness is her happiness.

But alas, reality is not like that.

Therefore, Eve abandoned her parents.

Since people are mortal, how can they live if they don’t live for their own happiness?
Everyone has the right to pursue happiness, rather than being unilaterally exploited by others like a stepping stone or a slave.

Therefore, no matter how rightly criticized she was, Eve was already determined to abandon her parents.

Here she made a choice.

"...Very good." The young man nodded happily, "Then, I will arrange everything for you."

"Yeah, but..." Eve said, "Let's rest today. Let's talk about those things until tomorrow, wait until tomorrow... okay?"

"I understand." The young man nodded.

"Then, just go to sleep, just like before..."

Before he finished speaking, Eve had already got into his arms and hugged him tightly, as if she was afraid of something.

But then, Eve felt that she was exerting too much force, and relaxed a little bit in the struggle.

"Good night... have a sweet dream." The young man smiled at her and touched her hair gently.

"OK, good night……"

Feeling his warmth, Eve could no longer hold on and fell into a deep sleep.

"..."

Feeling Eve's sleeping breathing, the young man also had mixed feelings in his heart.

"It's going to be... over."

However, at this moment, the young man felt a tremor.

"Oh...Dad, Mom, I'm sorry..."

Eve moaned in sleep, and the expression on her face was full of pain.

"...No, it's not over yet."

The young man gently took Eve away from him, put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and then quietly went out.

It's not over yet. Before that, there is one more thing he must do.

That is, make the final decision with Eve's parents!

Put an end to her nightmare.
