Summer of Fireflies

Unconsciously, I think of my... childhood that I can't go back. "A touch of nostalgia and sadness lingers around the young man.

Seeing this, I quickly changed the subject, "What was Gangji-kun's personality like when he was a child?" Although I heard him tell me that when he was young, he was scared and cried when he went to the amusement park to ride a pirate ship, but those descriptions were not complete. Yes, I am suddenly a little curious about the sad past of youth with nostalgia.

"Well, how should I describe it?" He crossed his hands to support his chin, and some faint spots of light shone through the leaves on the young man's clean chin, casting a halo of blurred light on it. "My personality when I was a child was timid, naive, cowardly, and I couldn't do anything well..."

I frowned at the young man, "Why do I feel that Gang Ji-jun was a useless piece of wood when he was young?" The young man coughed lightly when he heard this.

"I won't tell you the truth, will you?" Staring at the young man's flush gradually under the floating light, I couldn't help but widen my eyes in surprise.

As the young man continued to cough lightly, he blushed, and I covered my mouth and smiled lightly, "I kind of want to see the cute Tsunayoshi-kun when I was a child." I deliberately lengthened the ending to express my regret.

"Senior sister will definitely be disappointed." The warm eyes completely reflected my delicate face. After being teased by me, the young man's expression was obviously much calmer than before.

Whether it will be disappointing is not certain.I thought about it in my heart, and suddenly remembered something, so when I got up, I turned around and asked him: "Today there is a kid in the monastery celebrating his birthday. If it is Gangji-kun's birthday, what gift does Gangji-kun hope others will give you?"

"Scarf." The young man glanced at the pale sky, his pretty eyebrows curved into a crescent line, "When I was a child, my mother would give me a scarf on my birthday. When I wear it in winter, I always feel very warm." He glanced The gaze towards the distant scenery is extremely gentle.

I walked side by side with the young man, looking at the young man's gentle eyes, thoughtful.Just at this time, the pigeons in the courtyard flew high over the top of the tower, and the withered and yellow leaves swirled and fell down. As soon as the church bell rang, the young man and I stopped talking.

On October 10th, I bought a very large cake, and 14 candles, which were supposed to be used to celebrate the youth's birthday.

A month ago, when I was tidying up the messy room of the young man, I accidentally caught a glimpse of a copy paper placed on the young man's desk. The content on the paper was a plan for holding a birthday party for the young man. I don't know if the paper was left behind by the carelessness of the young people, otherwise I would not know that the young man's birthday is on October 10th in Libra.

When the monastery met the young man, he asked him what kind of birthday gift he liked. His answer was a scarf, so I spent a month knitting a light brown scarf for the young man with wool. The gift is beautifully packaged.

I thought of buying a birthday cake for the young man and a birthday gift for the young man, but I forgot to ask him whether the young man would come back on the night of October 10th.

The night outside the window was getting darker, and the pointer in the hall pointed to 11 o'clock, but the young man has not returned yet.Cakes and candles were placed on the table, including my newly bought champagne, and when everything was ready, I alone forgot the possibility that the young man might not come back tonight because his friends held a birthday party for him.

I feel that my behavior is a bit silly... I am self-deprecating and staring at the flickering candles on the table in a daze, Ann, I have already been put to sleep, only myself...

Only myself was preoccupied with celebrating the youth's birthday and forgot everything else.

Why is it so natural to think of celebrating birthdays for youth?While raising this doubt in my heart, the brain on the other side has already given a reasonable answer: probably... because... I have already regarded the young man as a relative in this family before I knew it.

In fact, my psychology is very contradictory. I know that the youth must be hiding something, and I also know that if I get closer to the youth, my ordinary life may go astray. However, I feel it with my heart, and I also know the youth. He's actually quite a gentle person.

He will not harm us.

The reason why he hides some things is also for our own good.

When this answer popped up in my heart, the balance in my heart had unknowingly tilted towards the youth, so it became a matter of course to celebrate the youth's birthday.

After dialing and dialing the numbers on the screen in my hand, I finally deleted all of them. I put the candles, champagne and cake on the table into the refrigerator to keep cold.

Picking up the birthday present I was going to give to the young man, I walked slowly into the young man's room, touched the switch and pressed it, and the light was turned on like daytime in an instant, and the neat furnishings in the room could be seen to the end.

After putting down the gift box, I walked to the door and saw the lonely gift box on the desk from a distance, and I pressed a small white note on it.

I only wrote one sentence on the note: I wish you a safe life.

After watching the last look, I immediately turned off the lights and stepped out of the room.The next morning, I woke up to fry poached eggs. The orange-yellow eggs had just been fried. I remembered the toast that was baking in the microwave outside the kitchen. As soon as I stepped out of the kitchen, I bumped into a wandering shadow. He fell down, looked up and was surprised to see a young man in pajamas wandering in the hall.

The young man who just woke up has upturned and disheveled hair, and he still holds a towel and a toothbrush in his hand. "Morning, senior." The young man waved his toothbrush at me sleepily, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, because his messy external image is too bad, no matter how beautiful his smile is, it seems to me now. Only "cute + decadent" is left to describe.

"Morning Gangji." I don't know what time the young man came back last night, but... that doesn't matter anymore.

Go to the lobby and take out the baked toast. The hot toast is delicious and makes people want to take a bite. I put the baked toast and just warmed milk on the dining table. There are two cups of milk in total. A cup for An'an, a cup for youth, I'll forget it.

"Huh?" When I opened the refrigerator, I found that the big cake I put here last night was missing a small piece. It doesn't make sense. An An hasn't woken up yet, unless he sleepwalked into the refrigerator in the middle of the night to look for food, or ...which was eaten by the house mice?

Hearing my exclamation, the young man turned his head in an instant, "What's the matter?" He glanced at me suspiciously. The young man who was drinking milk on the sofa was already dressed neatly, except that his bangs were still as straight as hair. Straight up strands of brown hair.

"It's okay." I smiled at the young man, shaking my head and ignoring the fact that a small part of the supernatural event was missing from the cake for some reason.

After breakfast, the young man was going to change his shoes and go out. I still gave the remaining snacks to the young man, and the young man took it without any hesitation.

Before leaving, against the bright light of the morning sun, the young man squirmed his lips and said something to me. The circled light and shadow projected on his back, leaving only his warm smile at me in sight. Finally, the young man’s back Melted into the brilliance behind him.

The back is hazy, but the colors are bright.

May your life be well.

I wish you a hundred years of sunshine.

Staring at the disappearing figure of the young man, there was a feeling called joy jumping in his veins in an instant.

The author has something to say: The editor wants us to be V, we little monsters can't resist the big devil, and I always feel that the code words are not in the state these days

27. Halloween

All Hallows' Eve on October 10 is also called "Halloween".

Halloween is one of the most popular festivals in the West, which means a festival of praising autumn, a festival of worshiping ghosts, and a festival of young people's masquerade.

Halloween is the most "haunted" time of the year. On this day and night, young people like to dress themselves up as their favorite monsters, pirates, alien visitors and witches to parade in the streets.Children put on masks and costumes and go door to door begging for sweets.

Italy is a country of freedom and romance. Halloween is a legal holiday in Italy. On Halloween, Palermo not only has school holidays, government agencies and offices are closed, even some shops in downtown areas shorten their business hours or close their doors. , but many shops remain open as usual in the main tourist areas, especially during peak tourist season.

The most common thing on the street during Halloween is the pumpkin lantern, also called "Jack Lantern". The method is also very simple. Light it up with a candle, and people can see all kinds of pumpkin faces with naive expressions, hideous horrors, smiling faces, or serious and serious expressions from far away.

As soon as I opened the door, there were rows of jack-o-lanterns everywhere on the street, because the night was not dark, and the tungsten lamps inside the jack-o-lanterns had not yet been lit.

One can imagine how spectacular the scene would be when rows of jack-o-lanterns on the street were lit up in the dark.

The jack-o-lanterns at home were made by the three of them in the morning, the candles were bought by An An, the jack-o-lanterns were made by me, and the young man was responsible for putting these jack-o-lanterns together.

They are hung in various places inside and outside the house. When it gets dark, young people will light the yellow and red candles inside.

At noon, I was busy in the kitchen, mainly to make delicious food. On the eve of Halloween, it is necessary to make a delicious meal.

I cook, the youth cleans, and An An is in charge of buying candies.

"trick or treat."

It means to give or not, or to make trouble.every once in a while at home
