Chapter 3506 Bloom
"……what?"

The boy uttered a syllable unconsciously from his throat.

Does he wish to recall that memory?

The boy thought the answer would come out of his mouth.

It turned out not to be.

He actually... hesitated.

……

The first half of that memory was like a sweet candy.

The boy thought of the candy his older brother gave him.

Really sweet.

delicious.

It makes people can't help but curl up the corners of their mouth.

……

But the second half of that memory...
It doesn't feel like candy at all.

The candy was eaten.

There was no sweet aftertaste left for him.

And he tried in vain to retain the sweetness.

The results backfired.

He tasted only bitterness.

Like... bitter melon.

He hates bitter melon the most.

He didn't understand why bitter melon was served as a dish?
……

Also like...garlic.

It makes people unable to hold back their tears.

Can't stop.

……

Such memories are naturally not beautiful.

He almost forgot about it.

Along with the beautiful memories before.

Because sweet and bitter are mixed together.

He couldn't separate.

Just one size fits all.

I don’t want any of them.

Compared to sweetness, bitterness is more unbearable.

……

But looking back now, the boy has a different feeling.

He found that his tolerance for suffering had increased.

Therefore... he couldn't bear to forget those sweet things.

After all, it was one of the few sweet things he felt.

If forgotten, there would be very few memories of his that could be called sweet.

……

The young man nodded.

"hope."

As if he thought what he said was too simple, the boy added, "I hope to remember."

He could allow himself to think only of the happy memories.

Although he was angry that they left without saying goodbye.

But my elder sister is such a good person...

Always listen to him quietly...

And make him happy...

He recalled a scene that he thought he would never forget.

really.

Sometimes people should not be too self-righteous.

otherwise……

Basically they will be slapped in the face.

But after remembering it this time, he will never forget it again.

……

He was crying that day.

He couldn't remember exactly why he was crying.

It might be the indifference and neglect of him by those two people.

or……

He remembered something again.

It was during a physical education class...

After the teacher led the whole class in warm-up exercises, he dismissed the class and asked the students to practice the ball sports they would take the exam for according to their own conditions.

He went to the equipment room and got the basketball himself.

When passing the basketball court -
He had no intention of practicing on the basketball court.

Because there are too many people.

The basketball hoops have all been divided up.

He was too embarrassed to join one of the groups.

Unless the teacher arranged for him to do so, he would always find a deserted corner to practice by himself.

……

There was a sudden sharp pain in my head.

He bent over with his hands covering his head.

……

"Are you OK?"

"Are you ok?"

"sorry."

……

Amid the noise, he tried to wave his hands.

He's fine.

……

The people surrounding him quickly dispersed.

The boy didn't raise his face until they reached a secluded place.

Some red eyes were revealed.

His head still had a slight throbbing pain.

But he was even more sad...

There were obviously many of his classmates nearby at that time.

After he was hit on the head by the ball, no one came to ask about his condition.

At that moment, he only felt embarrassed and awkward.

He just wanted to get out of there quickly.

……

There are actually many similar things.

These are all little things that may seem insignificant to many people.

Something that can be laughed off.

But he couldn't do it. He was a silent person.
Unpleasant emotions accumulate in my heart.

He always felt like he couldn't breathe.

……

The appearance of the older sister really made him feel redeemed.

……

Especially that time...

He said he would remember it forever...

……

Most of the time, the elder sister just quietly listened to his complaints, his crying, and his chattering...

Does he think that he is very unlikable?

But he couldn't control it.

It was like he had grabbed the last straw.

Talking to oneself.

As long as there is someone by his side, it will be fine.

That's what he thought at the time.

He is also always silent to others.

So there are too many things I want to say accumulated in my heart.

If he didn't speak out, he felt like he was going to go crazy.

……

The only thing that interrupted his chatter was his crying.

That day was it.

He is crying.

He seemed to remember the feeling of crying so hard that he was out of breath.

There is also chest tightness.

……

But he cried very quietly.

He lowered his head and tried hard to control the shaking of his shoulders.

……

Suddenly, in his tear-blurred vision, a flower bud appeared?

He was stunned.

what is this?
He raised his eyes subconsciously.

……

"Look."

The elder sister squatted in front of him.

Her eyes are gentle.

There was a hint of mystery in his tone.

……

W-what?
What to look at?
The little boy was a little stunned.

He lowered his eyes unconsciously.

next second...

He was stunned.

……

The elder sister's hand gently brushed across the green buds.

Like brushing the dust off a flower bud.

then……

A miracle happened.

……

The flower bud slowly opened before the little boy's eyes.

The petals, as white as mutton-fat jade, stretch out their bodies.

Under the outline of the setting sun, it is inlaid with a circle of dazzling golden edge.

It also completely lit up the light in the child's eyes.

……

So, so beautiful!

The little boy looked amazed.

especially……

He literally watched the flowers bloom before his eyes.

Not a single detail was missed.

So, in addition to being amazed, he was also greatly shocked.

……

"For you."

The older sister handed the flowers in her hand toward the child.

……

"Really, really?"

The little boy couldn't help but stumble a little.

He raised his hand to take the flowers from the elder sister's hand, but he hesitated and did not dare to take any further steps.

……

"of course it's true."

The elder sister's eyes turned into crescent shapes when she smiled.

The tenderness and clarity in her eyes made the flower that had amazed the little boy seem dim.

……

The little boy was stunned for a moment.

Then he carefully took the flowers from his elder sister's hand.

The slight trembling of the petals made his heart tremble as well.

He looked at the flowers in his hand nervously.

I was afraid that if I moved a little too roughly, it would cause serious damage to the flower.

……

"Like it?"

The older sister tilted her head and looked at the little boy.

……

The little boy held the flower closer.

The rich floral scent made him feel a little intoxicated.

He took a deep breath.

"……happiness-"

The little boy seemed to realize something and immediately pursed his lips.

He opened his eyes wide and looked closely at the flowers in his hand for a moment.

Then he opened his mouth.

The voice was much lower than before.

"like!"

……

"Are you happier then?"
