Usually, in addition to leaving a message, her mother will also leave a lunch box for Xie Zhinian.In the last month, except for the one from the other day, it has been uncommon.He knew that she had always been busy, working several jobs at the same time.She would come back when she remembered it, and if she forgot it, she would leave it there for a long time.He wasn't close to his mother, and he didn't like to eat the bento she made, and he didn't care very much.It's just that.Not only did she not have a bento, but even the messages on the post-it notes were separated for a long time.It is clear that the ballpoint pen hanging on the refrigerator has long run out of water.Her messages are all in ballpoint pen handwriting.If you think about it, it's likely that it was prepared a long time ago?
If she was simply sick, there was no reason to do this.Unless......
Xie Zhinian couldn't help pinching his sleeve and frowned slightly."
Did she ......
"What's wrong?"
He didn't feel close to this mother, and even thought that it would be the same with her or not.It's just that.Faced with some unknown possibility.He couldn't get the words out completely, his throat tightened a little, and his voice became hoarse.The first mother looked at him, panicked and pretended to be calm.She couldn't help but want to reach out and pat him on the shoulder, but Xie Zhinian turned to the side and dodged it, her eyes still vigilant.The first mother withdrew her hand."
Do you remember the last time you called?"
Xie Zhinian was stunned.The last time I called, it was when Xie Zhinian was taken to the hospital for gastric lavage, and when they came back, they planned to let him live in the house.He didn't have his own mobile phone, but he didn't forget his mother's mobile phone number.At that time, when he dialed the phone.The voices from the other side were hoarse, and some were speechless.Xie Zhinian was next to her, and she didn't plan to say a few more words.After learning the meaning of his first father and first mother, he hurriedly agreed and hung up the phone directly......
In Xie Zhinian's memory.My mother's style is like this, even if I passed out with a high fever when I was in the third grade and was sent to the hospital.When the teacher called her, she hung up the phone without saying a word and did not come to visit her.Last time, it was just a simple borrowing.There was nothing wrong with her tone."
Yes......
Any questions?
”Xie Zhinian asked a little dazedly."
This morning, she called her number again."
The first mother's voice sounded and paused."
The funeral home called."
Before Xie Zhinian could react, he subconsciously said: "She worked in the funeral home...... " He realized something, and suddenly stopped his words.The young man's expression was a hint of surprise and he looked towards his first mother.The First Mother sighed and nodded.…… Very young.Xie Zhinian knew that he was different from other children.His parents separated at an early age.Only the mother took herself, wandering around and moving.Before he went to school, he followed her and watched her work several jobs by herself.She was so busy that she left him where she was at work and didn't say a few words a day.After he was able to go to school and live alone, he disappeared even more.All the communication is a bento in the refrigerator and a post-it note message on the refrigerator door.It was the only evidence that didn't make him feel like he was a homeless person that no one cared about.But......
Those evidence.From now on, it will not be there.
