[The Phantom of the Opera] Boundary Bridge

Eric stared at her silently.

The shock that these words brought to his heart can be imagined, the pain and desire broke through the ground together, and it was ice and snow, and it was burning like fire.But besides that, there was a strange emotion, that was anger - he stared into her eyes, without saying a word.

Finally, Eric spoke, his voice was almost questioning: "Do you have to force me like this?" Painful and sharp.

Enid's eyes never blinked, and the eyelashes were woven with ice mist, which was melted by water vapor from nowhere.She said in a low voice, as if talking to herself: "Did I force you?" She asked, "Did I force you?"

"Isn't it?" Eric seemed to finally be unable to bear the atmosphere, and he began to walk back and forth.He paced in a small area, and the frozen atmosphere seemed to flow because of it, but it didn't reduce its danger and intensity at all.

"You know it! You know it—" he growled, looking her in the eye.

She clearly knew what kind of pain he had to bear to make this decision!What can a person do to dig out his inner feelings and replace them with another false one, which must be filled for the rest of his life?He is already so sad that he can't bear to look at himself in the glasses, so how can he say that he loves her!

Why force him?Why force him to see his own heart bloody again, why make him wallow in pain, but unable to obtain even false happiness?Why not love him again?She is so cruel?Is she going to persecute him so cruelly——but, but.

Eric knew again that he deserved it.

Because his pain is not noble, it can even be called despicable!It was his own fault, it was his wishful thinking and stupidity, it was his willingness to fall into the whirlpool of tragedy.He even caused all the tragedies by himself!Why should he accuse her who is clearly the victim?It was only fitting that she should ask him for a little debt.

But... He closed his eyes, the weakness of delusion, and the flame of sadness appeared intertwined together.Can't you sacrifice your love for me one last time?I know it's mean, but—but I obviously can't do it.

Please, love me love.He thought desperately, I can't live like this!

I obviously chose to give up on you and the love between you and me for the sake of living. I finally deceived my own heart, but do you have to let me expose the falsehood with my own mouth?I can't do it!Enid, you love me so much, hate me so much, do you want me to spend the rest of my life with cruel scrutiny and pain! "I love you", you don't know that is the most terrible curse, as long as I say it, my heart will never be peaceful!I would even prostrate on the ground, crying and begging you to take me away, wandering to the end of the sea and the sky - but I can't!

What is Eric without his singing?What is The Phantom of the Opera without singing?Without singing, he—what is he? !

There was one thing Eric didn't tell Enid.

That is, when he was guided to ask the witch for the secret recipe about heart blood, the witch once smiled slyly and told him one thing-if he failed in trying to get Christine's true love kiss, then even In Enid's ears, his singing will be silenced forever.

The witch said: "No one can have the chance to repent! You want to make a new choice through the kiss of true love, but you must also place your own bet. If you fail, your singing will be silent forever, and there will be no chance!"

Eric smiled wryly.Why didn't he understand that it was the witch who was cutting off all his retreats—if he couldn't get Christine's love and get back his singing voice, then he couldn't ask Enid for forgiveness, because he lost his singing voice completely. He will no longer have the face to appear in front of her.

The witch actually underestimated him, and his only remaining self-esteem and human heart did not allow him to deal with the two women.One of these two is the love of his heart, and the other is the sunshine he has looked up to for many years and the rose he has cared for carefully.

He chose to hurt out of despicableness, yes even love in his heart is not as important as his self!But he still has a trace of self-esteem, that is, he has only one part of all his love and sincere love, and he will only choose to sacrifice to one person, no matter whether that person wants it or not.He won't try to win another person's attention with a piece of incomplete love that has been burned, it's a shame, it's also a trample.And that's the only thing - "True Love's Kiss".

But no matter whether there is the bet with the witch or not, Eric, there is no turning back.

……

No matter how silent the confrontation is, it will come to an end.

"I know it?" said Enid, her eyes fierce. "Don't you know it? Honesty is a virtue because it has meaning in itself. Don't you dare touch that? Don't you dare let yourself Regret, do you want to make another choice?"

But I can't turn back!Eric growled inwardly.

He finally lost those weak emotions and became cold again, with painful disgust in his eyes:

"I have no regrets."

"You still don't dare." Enid took a step closer to him, her pale and slender eyebrows were furrowed, like the disappointed moonlight, "Eric, don't you still dare? You dare not say you love me, But your heart protests, you—”

In those eyes that were always gentle and blue, there seemed to be turbulent waves and raging flames.The red sunset fell into the deep sea, half burning and half surging to the sky, almost asking questions.

She walked towards him step by step, trembling with grief, sincere love, decaying life, and remaining self-esteem.She said to him, "Eric, you love me, you love me!"

Is this her own love?Is this her own fate?This clearly belonged to the tragedy of two people, but there was nothing she could do, she could only watch helplessly as one died and the other was injured.He sacrificed his love to build a false dream, and she grieved.But the dream will collapse... Who can deceive himself for the rest of his life?Who can get rid of the manipulation of fate and stop being a ridiculous and pathetic puppet!

"Tell me, Eric, you love me!" she told him!

She was already so close to him, her posture was pressing, as if she was pressing for the answer.But her voice, full of grief and trembling emotions, seemed so deep and empty.Like from the sea, like from the sky, like from the Holy Spirit!Those endless echoes echoed around his ears, like the Sanskrit sounds buzzing in a bell.This emotion has overwhelmed everything!

Even the wind and snow are dodging for it——

"Eric, answer me, do you love me!"

She must have that answer.

Eric had been driven to the door by her, and there was no way out.Behind him is a room of fire, in front of him is the sky full of snow, and the woman who seems to have come out from the depths of the ocean - long wet hair, white and slender legs dripping with blood, with long water marks trailing behind her, Blonde hair, blue eyes, sad, pure, isn't this the Little Mermaid who came out of the sea?He couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

She was so close to him, his heart began to beat uncontrollably, almost bursting, no matter how hard he gasped, he couldn't suppress the severe pain in his heart.Eric felt that something was rushing and shouting in his blood, which made his brain throbbing with pain.Finally, he couldn't bear this pain anymore, and vented it into sharp anger.

"I never loved you." He heard himself say so coldly.

The world seemed to quiet down at this moment.

Enid's figure seemed to shake for a moment, but that moment was so slight that even the wind didn't pick it up, which only made people suspect that it was a mistake.However, a trace of dark red blood leaked from her pale lips.

Eric looked at the bloodstain in horror, as if it was not a thin line of blood, but a bloody demon dancing wildly.He desperately suppressed the emotions in his heart, tried his best to freeze all the emotions on his face, but just looked around, and said loudly in a cold and impatient tone:

"It's very late today—you should come here and rest for the night first! You can leave after dawn."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, it seemed that part of his soul left his body and flew forward flutteringly.Eric staggered a bit, managed to stand still, frowned, and looked at her in front of him with restraint and coldness.

And Enid looked up at this moment.

She stared deeply, deeply into his eyes, for a long time, a look of sadness flashed across her face, and she nodded.

Under the attack of wind, snow and fire, in this strange and calm false appearance, time seems to be stretched, and it seems to be completely still.The two looked at each other like this, with the quiet convulsion after the severe pain, with sadness and happiness.

I don't know whose eyes were stained with a little water first.

When she stared into his eyes, she suddenly had an astonishing discovery, because she saw her tears rolling in his eyes.

Enid moved the corner of her lips, as if she wanted to laugh, but she couldn't do anything.

— is an inevitable end.

"Come in." Eric whispered.

Enid nodded silently.

The two walked into the room one after the other, facing the warm heat of the campfire.The wooden door closed behind them, blocking the wind and snow all over the sky, and blocking all eyes.

The moment the wooden door closed, Enid suddenly coughed up a big mouthful of blood.Her body collapsed without warning, and she was held in Eric's arms.And the half of the man's face revealed extreme shock and panic.

The author has something to say: * Readers: If you don't update Enid, you will freeze to death.

Me: It’s better to be frozen in the snow than to die, don’t you understand? I’m doing it for your own good.

reader:? ? ?madam are you a devil !I beseech you to be kind—

Happy update, huh?
