"It's okay, Gu Yue." I don't want her to worry so much about me, even though she might be the one who understands my feelings the most among us children.
"No, it's not like that. First, you're already like this. Do you think I'll believe you if you say you're fine?”I saw Gu Yue's eyes turning red.
"None of your business!" I shook her off with one hand. Before she could react, I got up again and ran away, leaving Gu Yue alone.
After running for a few meters, his mood had recovered a lot. I turned around and saw Gu Yue still standing there. Her drooping shoulders were trembling. Was she crying too? Actually, I didn't mean to shake her off. I just didn't want to pass on my current feelings and emotions to her. I didn't expect her to still…Sigh. How silly...
I quickly ran to Gu Yue's side. She was still sobbing softly. I squatted down and gently stroked her head.
"I'm sorry, Gu Yue. I didn't do it on purpose. I shouldn't have thrown you away.”I wanted to make my voice as gentle as possible. I didn't want to hurt her further.
Suddenly, Gu Yue leaned towards me and hugged me gently with both hands. I didn't reject her. After all, we were childhood friends. "Moreover, because we've lived here since we were young and have been trained by our fathers, few of us actually understand the things between men and women.
"Sob, sob. I know why you're crying. I don't blame you. I can understand your feelings very well. I know why you're crying. We've been trained to pilot weapons since we were young, but now, you and I can't get the chance to do so." Gu Yue was still crying, but she didn't cry out loud."Besides, sob, sob, you're not like me. You're not someone who doesn't have the life to pilot a machine. You were once considered an absolute elite. I can understand how you feel, but I can't feel the feeling of being transferred from heaven to hell, from a genius to a mediocre person."Gu Yue's cries became louder and louder. I hugged Gu Yue even tighter.
Seeing Gu Yue like this and hearing Gu Yue's agonizing cries, my mood, which had eased a little earlier, became much heavier again. However, I couldn't cry this time. I only watched as Gu Yue's cries gradually softened in my arms. I said gently, Thank you, Gu Yue. Thank you for understanding my pain."Actually, I know that Gu Yue has been working hard too. You also have the dream of driving a machine. I know this better than you do."
Gu Yue nodded lightly before shaking her head heavily."No, Yi, that was my original wish, but I've already given up on it. But I have a bigger wish now, and that is to see you truly fulfill your wish. I heard all your roars in the corridor just now. Believe me, if it's Yi, there won't be any problem. I hope that one day, I can pilot the most powerful weapon and defeat all the dragons! That day would come, right? One!"
She raised her head. Gu Yue originally didn't have any bangs. She only had a strand of hair in front of her head (cough cough, male author doesn't know what this is called). She had been pressed against me for a long time, so her hair was soft and stuck to her face. I gently combed Gu Yue's hair and patted her head again.
"Okay, I promise you. I will work harder to fulfill your wish.”I said softly.
Seeing her nod in satisfaction, I immediately said,"However, that's only Gu Yue's wish. I've changed my dream now. I hope that the person who will pilot the weapon with me will be you.”
"Good! "Let's work hard together." Gu Yue reached out her hand and clenched it into a fist, revealing her pinky. Then, she turned her pinky into a crescent shape.
"What is this?" I looked at Gu Yue's smiling face and then at her hand movements. I didn't know what she meant.
"Firstly, this is a ritual for outsiders. As long as two people hook their little fingers together and make their wishes and agreements, the ritual will be completed. No one can change that." Gu Yue looked at me with a sweet expression as she explained.
Very quickly, I understood what he meant. It was just that I didn't know the meaning behind it at the time. Of course, this was all in the future.
"Good!" I shouted, scaring Gu Yue. She trembled for a moment before smiling. She was beautiful, just like the stars in the sky, even though the stars I had seen so far were created by scientists.
I mimicked her hand posture and made a gesture of hooking my finger. Gu Yue's pinky overlapped with mine. Gu Yue's hand was very soft, but it carried a hint of coldness…
"Pinky swear and hang yourself for a hundred years, don't change your mind." I was a little confused when I heard Gu Yue say those words like she was singing.
Gu Yue looked at me, who was still in a daze, and pushed me away. She said very gently,"Hmph, I'll return it to you for pushing me just now.”
I didn't react in time because it was better for her to push me too. However, I still had a confused expression on my face.
"This is an incantation! When he made the pinky swear, he would say this incantation and it would really come true.”
" It's amazing," I said curiously.
"There's still the next sentence. Do you want to know? If you want to know, come and chase me!”Gu Yue burst into laughter when she saw my expression. She then turned around and ran away. She knew that my curiosity was very strong!
Thus, I quickly got up and ran towards her. However, this time, there was no bitter smile on my face as I ran. There was only that sweet smile…
