3 LAWYERS
Chapter 3: The Day Before That
Huhhh, I don't know I really don't want to part with my mother, but yes anyway I have to obey what she says, and of course this is for my good as well of course
Right now I can only sit in the river not far from my house, soaking half my feet in the water, I felt every twisting of the stream - the smooth twitching of the feet, I said to the water of the river
The river thank you for keeping me company all this time, I always thought you were alive, you were the place where I kept quiet when I felt bosen and unwell, you would always be my favorite place, you were my favorite, I will always miss you, wait until I return in eleven years
After that, I laid my body on the ground, I wanted to feel every grain of soil sticking together under my back, in all these years I have never met anyone except my mother and my uncle, I have never interacted directly with anyone else, every day I just play with nature and animals, talking to him and laughing, though I'm not sure they understand what I'm talking about, but the most important thing is that they remain faithful to accompany me and comfort me in times of boredom.
" are you talking to them ? " ask uncle lao
" of course, they are very pleasant not "my answer
" hmm, wait a minute "
Uncle lao went inside the house and looked like he was looking for something.
Hah, I was thinking how to interact with the others, hopefully uncle lao can teach me that further, before my mother had taught me to buy and sell but it seems I have not understood it too much, my mother also taught about civilisations to others and what things should not be done to others, such as ; hitting him, kicking his ass, breaking his neck etc, when it was so much like hunting deer, it seemed like playing with humans would be very boring.
" hah, finally met also this stuff" said uncle lao.
I was very curious about the thing he had taken, it seemed like it was a precious object
" Uncle lao, may I see him ? " my door
well, it's common for uncle lao to be like that, I'm used to his annoying attitude, even though on the one hand I'm more annoying than him, like, like, my attitude is inversely proportional to my mother's calm and calm attitude, hahaha, talking about mother, I so want to meet her and want to talk to her a little.
" hey, where are you going ? " ask uncle lao
" huh, it's none of your business "I replied with annoyance
I saw my mother preparing my provisions for tomorrow and beyond, she looked very tired, and I saw tears streaming down her face.
" mom, why are you crying instead of being strong ? " ask me stupidly
" can't a forest animal hurt you ?" I am more stupid
My mother wiped the tears on her cheek and said "Te, you're going to be a teenager, I don't know when we'll see each other again" she said
" i just hope you're okay, by the way you won't forget mom, right ? " he asked with the rest of the tears still flowing on his eyelids
" of course, I will not forget my mother, and I want us to promise, ten years later we will meet again "my door with full promise
After that my mother hugged me tightly, and put down my neck scarf while saying "yes I will keep that promise, follow what uncle lao instructed, and practice what I have taught you, I hope this promise of ours can be realized "
Without me noticing my tears flowing in my mother's arms, my hands hugging her back without instruction, I really felt warm, and now that warmth would have been paused for years.
