Chapter 22: Chapter 22
The wait is always long.
But it’s like waiting for the coming spring in the ice and snow, as long as you can smell the fresh fragrance of flowers again, as long as you can feel the breeze from Hexi again, as long as you can really wait until then, tears can turn into tears Smile, the bitter cold in between is no longer important.
Ariel waited until Su.
It was nearing the end of the banquet at this moment, but to Ariel, Su did not break her promise, Su had conveyed to the eel steward that she would be back soon, although it was not so fast, but what Ariel cared about was that she would come back.
It's just that the joy of sharing is not what Ariel thought, what she waited for seemed to be only Su's body, and Su had never been so absent-minded, as if his soul had been hooked away.
To Su, this view was not wrong, she was in extreme chaos, she knew she was sorry for Ariel, but even with all her strength she couldn't concentrate.Everything in front of her eyes was as blurred as fog, and the voice coming into her ears was also like the chaotic rumble of the old radio at home, which could not be distinguished.
She went to confirm.
Whether it was a lie or a deception, the truth made her unwilling to believe but had to accept it.
Those words were playing over and over again in my mind.
"Actually, we don't have any place called Mozambique here...Sorry for lying to you for so long."
Su never thought it would be like this, she just thought it would be far, far away or she couldn't find it for the time being... She never thought that there would be nowhere. For her, it was too scary.
This horror made the anger of being deceived disappear, leaving only deep sorrow.
When he left, Simon clearly didn't keep her.
Some injuries have to be digested by yourself, and others cannot do it for you.
It wasn't until the lights and music of the banquet dissipated that Su finally regained a little bit of self-awareness, and was able to stand up mechanically, and followed Ariel away.
"Su, Su..." Ariel next to her called herself.
Su heard the voice in his heart: That's right, she is the reason.
Ah, that uncontrollable anger came up again. If I haven't found out, are you going to lie to me all the time?No, no, no, it was the day you tricked your princess into not needing a playmate anymore, and I was useless...
"Su, is there something wrong with you? Your face is so pale, let's go find Grandpa Simon."
Seeing her concerned face for him, Su shook his head.
However, this is not her fault.She didn't know, so how could she blame her.
"I think it might be because I was too tired a few days ago, and my body became tired easily. I'll just go back and take a rest. Don't worry, Ariel."
"I'll accompany you back."
But Ariel's sisters in the distance waved at Ariel and said:
"Ariel, come here quickly, the most famous court painter has promised us to make a painting for our six sisters together as a commemoration."
Ariel shook her head, turned around and supported Su.
"I……"
But before he could finish speaking, someone covered his mouth gently.
"Go, it's rare to have such an opportunity. I have nothing to do, come and find me after you finish painting."
"But..." Ariel pulled Su to cover her hand.
"I don't know magic, and I don't have bird wings, so don't worry that I will disappear."
Su understood that although Ariel had never drawn the line between a princess and a commoner with herself, there was such a line in other people's hearts.It's not a good thing to be friends with yourself and then suffer criticism.Of course, this does not mean to give up, but to not make it difficult for her to do so.
She didn't quite remember how she returned to the room, she only remembered seeing the familiar mattress, falling into the softness of the quilt without any thought, and drowning in the quiet surroundings.
Tired but unable to sleep, she rubbed her eyes.
Su suddenly felt that Sleeping Beauty was also very happy.He fell asleep knowing nothing, and then woke up to see his prince.She has slept for decades, leaving no trace at all, she is still as beautiful as a flower, and her happiness remains unchanged.
And now I don't pray for any prince, as long as I can fall asleep, it's fine... It's good to sleep like this for a lifetime...
I don't know how long it has passed, and in the wild thoughts, the world is slowly falling into darkness, as long as the gap is closed, it will be completely dark. Su was shaken, and heard the soft voice calling his name again.
She looked up blankly, and her blurry vision came into focus: Ariel.
Her face was very close to her, her cheeks were flushed, and her breathing was uneven.
Su Fei stretched out his hand and stroked her hair: "I told you I would be here, what should I do if I ran too fast and fell down?"
Ariel didn't answer.Su felt her forehead pressed against her with the back of her hand, only to see her purse her lips, and then pressed her forehead against it.
"Su, you seem to have a fever, a little hotter than normal body temperature."
The face close at hand, Su thought, she put her hand on Ariel's shoulder, and pushed her away with a little force.
"I have medicine on the table, can I take it?"
"Enn, the smaller bottle, right?"
It's hard to imagine a princess serving you a cup of medicine, even though she never thought of herself as a princess.
After doing everything that could be done, Ariel finally showed a relieved expression.She looks very tired, no wonder, she performed and stood with her sisters today to make a template for portraits, it is impossible not to be tired.
"You can sleep now, Su." Ariel said, carefully taking the cup from Su's hand.
Can I sleep?Su closed his eyes.
There was a crisp sound of glass falling to the ground.
The corner of Su's mouth couldn't help but float into a smile, as if it wasn't that easy.
"Obviously everything was done very well before..." Hearing the regretful voice, Su felt it was very cute and warm.
"A princess is a princess." Su said with a smile.
The caretaker is not good at breaking countless cups, this is the privilege of a pampered princess.In contrast, Ariel, you are really not a competent princess.
"Not next time."
Although Su didn't open her eyes, from the tone of her voice, she could imagine Ariel's angry face.
"Well, otherwise which poor cup will be next time..."
"Stop talking and sleep well, Su."
Su felt that the quilt was lifted, and a soft thing entered his arms.
"Su, if there is anything wrong with your body, just call me."
"...the bed over there is a bit sunken, sleep here."
"Ah" Ariel exclaimed.It turned out that Su directly hugged Ariel and turned over.
"Today is the last..." Su murmured.
"You're sick, it's nothing."
"I……"
Su's voice seemed to be very uncomfortable.
"What's wrong? What's wrong again?" Ariel's voice became a little nervous.
"I want to see Grandpa...I want to go home...I..."
Su's voice suddenly choked up. In fact, she had already burst into tears, but no one could see the rain in the deep night sea.
Ariel reached out and touched Su's head. She thought it might be Grandpa Simon's illness, as well as her own illness that made her weak, homesick, and grandpa.She had heard Su mention her grandfather, who seemed to be in poor health, and Su was very worried about this.
"Well... I understand..." Ariel's voice was gentle.
This caring tenderness made Su's words blocked in his throat, and only tears kept gushing out.
Ariel rested her head on Su's chest, hugged her, and said softly:
"Don't be sad. Ariel will let you go home, she will."
Su nodded subconsciously, and hugged the person in his arms tightly.She is very tired now, so tired that she just wants to cuddle with her only friend in the bottom of the sea.
This warm embrace is the only light left for her at the bottom of the sea.
