The six-year-old Apricot, who was wearing a red dress, rushed downstairs and looked at Lin Hui, who was sitting on the sofa leisurely reading comics and eating fruits.
" Kei Chan, I'll play the game," Apricot said excitedly.
" I'm not doing it." Lin Hui glanced at Xing Zi and then leisurely read the comic.
"Why? Did Kei Chan hate playing games with her sister?”Xing Zi asked angrily.
" Because Xingzi likes to cry and is childish. She also likes to have a runny nose. That's why she won't play with you," Lin Hui said mercilessly.
" You…you…wah…I…I want to tell mom that you failed me." Apricot seemed to be angered by Lin Hui's merciless words. She couldn't stop her tears from flowing out and then burst into tears.
" Really, she's crying again. Why must I, as her younger brother, take care of her sister?" Lin Hui thought of her mother's exhortation and sighed.
"Speak! "What game? But you're not allowed to cry after you finish the game," Lin Hui put down her book and said to the crying apricot.
" You…you can play any game? You can't lie to Xingzi," Xingzi sat on the ground and said with tears in her eyes. It was as if she was saying that if she lied to her, she would cry again.
" I know, I know. You can make any game you want," Lin Hui said helplessly.
" Hui-chan, you're so nice." Apricot was happy all of a sudden. She rushed over to hug Hui-lin and gave him a kiss on his face. Then, she kept saying," Zeng! Zeng!"
" Wait a minute, stop! Ahh, don't put your snot on my face, it's so dirty…" Lin Hui shouted.
" Hehe…" Xing Zi smiled evilly. The more she gave, the happier she became. It made Lin Hui's face dirty.
" Hui-chan, let's play horseback riding. You said it before," Apricot let go of Hui-chan and said with a smile as she sniffed.
" Hey, hey, I know. Xingzi is really…" Lin Hui said helplessly as she wiped her face with a piece of paper.
" Then Hui-chan, hurry up and get on the ground. Apricot wants to ride," Apricot urged.
" Got it. Come and sit on it," Lin Hui said to Xing Zi behind her after she was done crawling on the ground.
" Apricot's here to ride a horse. Oh…Hurry up, hurry up, Hui-chan, run!" Apricot sat on the horse and shouted happily as if she was really riding a horse.
"Yes, I know. This way or this way?”Lin Hui asked as she crawled.
" This way, this way... Yes... Little Horse, go faster..." Apricot said excitedly as she commanded.
Just like that, Lin Hui and Xing Zi began to ride horses in the living room. After a long time, Xing Zi suddenly said to Lin Hui with a flushed face,"Hui…Hui-chan, Xingzi suddenly misses Niaoniao.
" Then I'll take you to the toilet," Lin Hui turned around and said.
" I can't take it anymore. I'm coming out," Apricot said with tears in her eyes.
" Wait, don't!" Lin Hui shouted in panic, but it was too late.
The entire living room was very quiet. Only the sound of running water echoed.
Xingzi finally trembled and looked like she had just finished sleeping. Then, she said apologetically with a red face," Hui-chan, I didn't do it on purpose. I don't know why, but I suddenly felt so excited, and then I couldn't control myself... so don't be angry, okay?" After saying that, she put on a pitiful look.
In the face of this situation, Lin Hui didn't know what to say. She could only say that the devilish child was really terrifying.
" It doesn't matter. Can Xingzi get off me now?" Lin Hui said with a dry smile.
When Lin Hui said this, Xing Zi immediately jumped down and stood at the side, not daring to make a sound. She looked like she had done something wrong.
"I'll go wash up."
"I want it too!"
"Wait for me to finish before you do it."
"No, I want to shower with Hui-chan!"
"Why do you have to shower together?"
"Don't ask anymore. Let Xingzi help Hui-chan wipe her back!”With that, she pushed Lin Hui into the bedroom.
The amusement park was filled with the laughter of children. On this weekend, her mother, Terahara Keimei, brought her five-year-old daughter, Rein Keimei, and her seven-year-old daughter, Kyoko, to the amusement park.
" Mom, I want to eat ice cream," Apricot pointed at the ice cream shop and said. She looked at the other children holding ice cream happily with longing eyes.
" Hi, I'll go buy it for you now." After saying that, his mother quickly came back with two buckets of ice cream.
" Here, Apricot and Keiko jam." His mother handed the Apricot and Keiko to them respectively.
Xing Zi happily took the ice cream and started eating.
" Mother, you've worked hard." Lin Hui took the ice cream and said to her mother with a smile.
" Keki-chan, you're so good. Mommy needs to go to the bathroom. Keki-chan, you have to take good care of Apricot," Teramoto Keimi said as she stroked Kei's head.
" I know. Mother, hurry up and come back," Lin Hui nodded and said.
" Then wait for me here." Mother said and walked away.
" Sister Xingzi, let's go sit on that bench and wait for Mother," Lin Hui said to Xingzi.
" Mm." Xing Zi said and rushed over.
" Bam…" Apricot fell to the ground and dropped the ice cream in her hand.
" Wahhh…My ice cream is gone!" Apricot cried out as she saw the ice cream on the floor.
" Alright, Sister Xing Zi, don't cry anymore," Lin Hui said as she pulled Xing Zi up from the ground.
" Wah-wah... but... but my ice cream..." Apricot cried as she wiped her tears.
"Hey! "You can have mine, even though you've had a few bites," Lin Hui said as she handed her ice cream.
" Hui-chan…Aren't you going to eat?" Apricot looked at Lin Hui and asked.
" I'm not eating. I'm giving it to Sister Xingzi, so don't cry anymore." Lin Hui shook her head and said with a smile.
Xing Zi carefully took the ice cream and looked at Lin Hui, who was smiling like an angel. She wiped her tears and said," Hui-chan is so nice. Xingzi must be Hui-chan's wife when she grows up."
" What are you talking about? We're brother and sister. Don't say such things in the future." Lin Hui didn't take Xing Zi's words to heart.
On a bench in the amusement park, a blonde girl was hugging a cute silver-haired boy and eating ice cream happily. This moment became a happy memory for Apricot many years later.
Three years later, Apricot was still in fifth grade. Lin Hui was only in the third grade of elementary school.
Apricot sat in the classroom and looked at the exam results that had just been handed out. Mandarin 40 points, social studies 20 points, mathematics 35 points, science 5 points, music 10 points, drawing 25 points, home economics 15 points, sports 55 points. All the papers with 100 marks failed.
Xing Zi was in a terrible mood at the moment, and her face was scarily dark.
"Have you heard? "Third year student Kuno got full marks again. The school's results are out," a girl in the classroom suddenly said.
" What's so strange about that? Kuno-san has long been known as the super genius of Akino Academy. Isn't it natural for him to get full marks?" a girl replied.
" Yeah, Kuno-kun is really amazing. He can get full marks even when he sleeps and cuts class every day. He's also so cute."
" You're right. I'm already a fan now. Do you guys want to join us? If you become a fan of Kuno-san, you can share his photo album."
"Really? That's great, I want to become a fan of Kuno-kun."
I want one too. Please share with us."
Several girls were chattering about becoming Lin Hui's fans. Xing Zi, who was sitting next to them, finally couldn't take it anymore. At this moment, she felt as if her brother was about to be snatched away. Her heart was filled with panic and anger.
" Thump!" Apricot furiously hammered the table and stood up.
"Shut up! How dare you collect Hui-chan's photo album without permission?”Xing Zi roared.
"Kyoko-san is Kuno-kun's older sister?”。
"Speaking of which, Kyoko's surname is also 'Kuno'. Could she really be Kuno-san's sister?”。
"Are you kidding me? Kyoko was actually Kuno-san's older sister. She didn't look like her at all?”。
"Yes, yes! They didn't look alike at all. Kuno-kun was so cute, and Apricot looked so fierce. How could they be siblings?”。
" That's true. I heard that Xing Zi was the last in the entire grade. If they were siblings, how could there be such a huge difference?"
“···”
“··”
The group of girls did not notice Xing Zi's increasingly distorted face.
" Enough!..." With a loud shout, Xing Zi finally could not stay in the classroom any longer and rushed out of the classroom with tears streaming down her face.
In a dark corner of the school, Xingzi sat on the ground, hugging her knees and crying silently.
She wasn't angry at those female classmates. She was angry at herself.
As time passed and she got along with more and more people, she gradually discovered the difference in Lin Hui. Her heart began to fill with lingering fear.
She had a strange feeling that sooner or later, Lin Hui would be further and further away from her, and then spread her white wings and fly into the sky.
Life was like an infinitely extending line. Other than being parallel, it was also intersecting.
