Chapter 174: Knocking on Heaven's Door (Second Update)
The next day, Sun Fengyang transferred one million dollars to Debola's card as promised.
It's also the day when the new landlord comes to take over the house, and Glory and Debora have to move out.
Sun Fengyang called a van and waited for them downstairs, and then instructed the workers to start moving.
Glory also helped, and Debora stood by the door with a large suitcase and watched.
A worker wanted to come up and help her carry away the suitcase, but Debora refused: "Personal belongings, I'm sorry." She smiled apologetically at the worker.
The worker was a little distracted by the laughter.
Glory also saw Debola's smile next to him.
He found that this was the first time he had seen Debora smile. Since I saw her, I have either had a bitter face or a blank face.
It turned out that the old woman laughed...... It's pretty good.
Glory thought so in his heart.
When the worker came to his senses, he turned around and went to work.
Debora stood in the room, watching the workers go about their work, coming and going.
Although she had already packed up her things in advance, the room was getting emptier and emptyer as she watched the stacked boxes be removed one by one. She was still a little reluctant, as if her heart had been hollowed out.
She bit her lip.
Home, where she has lived for more than ten years, does not belong to herself.
But this time, she didn't let herself shed tears in front of so many people.
She just took a step back and leaned lightly against the wall behind her.
It wasn't until everything had been moved that she came out and handed the keys to the new landlord who arrived.
Then she took a look at the house, turned around and walked to the elevator room with Rongguang and Sun Fengyang, and left the "home" without looking back.
※※※
This is the second time Rongguang has come to Sun Fengyang's home, and he is no stranger to this place. When he was training at Sun Fengyang's side before, he lived here, and Sun Fengyang's family in the house also knew him.
Debora was the first time, and when she saw this luxury villa, she finally understood what she was doing Sun Fengyang took out a million to help him pay off his debts - rich people!
I met Sun Fengyang's family, who are all Chinese, but have been living in Brazil for many years, so they have the advantages of being Chinese and Brazilian, that is, they are very hospitable.
They didn't have any opinion on the arrival of Debora and Glory, but welcomed them quite well.
Sun Fengyang's mother even said on the spot that Debora and Rongguang can live as long as they want, and they don't need to pay for food and lodging here.
Glory and Debora were arranged in two rooms on the second floor, door to door, at the end of the hallway, and there was a large shared terrace, which was accessed through the door at the end of the hallway, but the rooms had windows to see the situation on the terrace.
With a parasol, four beach chairs and a small round table, the terrace is a great place to relax and enjoy the scenery and the evening breeze.
Sun Fengyang stood in the corridor between the two doors and said to the two people inside the door, "Stay in peace, two." Time can heal everything, and I can't blame Mr. Godot for his death, but I don't think Mr. Godot wants you to always live in the past, and life is meant to go on, isn't it? Okay, put your things away, and come down to dinner with me. Although our family is Brazilian, we still live according to Chinese traditions, so Miss Debora, you may be a little unaccustomed. But I promise that when you get used to it, you will like the Chinese way of life. ”
After speaking, Sun Fengyang stood outside the door and waited for the two of them.
After the two of them put their things away, they came out and followed Sun Fengyang downstairs to the big restaurant to eat.
Sun Fengyang is right, although they are Brazilian citizens, their living habits are all Chinese, which has been seen before by Glory.
For example, although they are all Brazilian citizens, they still speak Chinese, but they speak Chaoshan dialect, and Rongguang does not understand it at all. But they also speak Mandarin, so there is no problem for both sides to communicate.
As for eating, it's even more obvious. Sun Fengyang's family has insisted on using chopsticks to eat, and it is at a large round table, the family gathers together, eats together, and the atmosphere is very lively.
This lively atmosphere unconsciously diluted Debola's sad mood. When everyone around her talks to her with a kind smile, she will naturally be infected.
They talked to Sun Fengyang in Chaoshan, Rong Guang in Mandarin, and asked Debora in Portuguese if she had a habit of eating.
Debora felt that Sun Fengyang's family was really interesting......
It's a pity that Debora hasn't enjoyed this kind of warm atmosphere when a family is happy together.
※※※
Godot's debt was paid off, and the place where he lived was settled, and the last thing was Godot's burial.
This glory is completely speechless.
Debora arranges freely.
Her father was buried with her mother, in the cemetery where the urn was temporarily kept.
"It's Dad's wish and Mom's." Debora said.
Godot has also seen the glory of his wife's affection, and after the death of his ex-wife, he has never remarried, which is quite rare among Brazilian men.
Godot's funeral was small, only Debola himself and Glory, as well as Sun Fengyang, and two of Godot's peers - they were also agents, but they didn't mix very well, and Debora still invited them, after all, they were one of the few friends of her father in this world.
In addition, there is Cui Hao's family.
It was also at this time that they learned that Godot had died. When I received the notice, I was shocked.
"Why don't you have any other relatives?" Seeing that Debora had already called to inform everyone, Rongguang was surprised, because he felt that Debora still had a group of the most important people who had not been notified.
In his hometown, the people in a village are more or less related to each other, and if there is something in the family, other families always have to come to help.
But when Godot had an accident, none of Debola's relatives were seen, and it was all Debora herself who was fighting.
So he wondered what could be like this.
"It's not a good relationship." Debora replied lightly, obviously reluctant to mention more.
The glory was silent.
※※※
"Some time ago he said that he was going to Europe, but he didn't hear from him for a long time, and I thought he would forget about us old guys when he went to Europe...... I didn't expect it to be ......."
In the cemetery, a fat man about the size of Godot shook his head as he spoke.
A thin old man next to him listened silently, his eyes fixed on the coffin that had been placed in the tomb, and his expression was sad.
Everyone was dressed in black, and even Rong Guang was wearing the dark formal suit issued to him by the St. Paul Club, with a solemn expression, which rarely appeared on Rong Guang's face.
Cui Hao's family also stood silently in dark clothes.
Even Corell, who is usually very eccentric, lowered his head at this time, and his expression was gloomy.
Although she has always laughed at the fat uncle's eyes on the players, she also likes this fat uncle. Now the fat uncle who often comes to the house as a guest has died like this, and she can't accept it at a young age.
Her eyes were red when she came, and she had obviously cried.
This made Rongguang's perception of her a little better.
Then Glory set his sights on the black coffin.
The coffin contained Godot's clothes and his urn.
When I think of the living people who used to spend time with me, I will now sleep forever in the ground. Glory still can't believe it.
It's been almost half a month, and some things seem to be nothing on the surface, but in fact they are still deeply rooted in my heart, but I don't have a chance to show them.
Now, in this quiet cemetery, the funeral of a few people, a slightly shabby funeral, has re-hooked the emotion in the heart of Rongguang.
His nose was sore, and his vision was blurry.
It was at this moment that he heard a very low sobbing from the side.
He turned his head and saw that it was Debola.
This is the second time I have seen her cry.
Seeing Debora suddenly cry out of control, Rongguang blinked a few times, and his vision regained clarity.
Godot's two friends were silent.
Sun Fengyang handed Debora a shovel and distributed the other shovels to the other four people.
Everyone knows that it's time to say goodbye to Godot once and for all.
Debora wept and took the shovel, then poured the first shovel into the tomb.
The earth sprinkled on the coffin, making a crackling sound.
It was as if it was knocking on the door of heaven, making a knocking sound.
……
Mom, take the badge off me......
I can't wear it anymore.
It was dark, and I couldn't see anything in the dark.
I felt like I was knocking on heaven's door.
Knock knock, knock on heaven's door.
Knock knock, knock on heaven's door.
Knock knock, knock on heaven's door.
Knock knock knock on the door of heaven......
……
Five men shoveled dirt into the tomb with a spade, and the dirt spilled onto the coffin, gradually submerging the black coffin.
The coffin containing Godot's ashes was surrounded by sand. It will be his home forever, and he will be reunited with his wife.
If there is anything in the world that he can't let go, it must be the beautiful daughter he cares about the most, without his protection, what will happen to his daughter? What does the future hold? Godot must be thinking about this right now, right?
If he knew that the debt he owed had been paid off, would he feel a little more at ease?
Glory watched the sand rise and fall, but this was the thought that popped into his mind.
Godot has been laid to rest here, but life goes on, so what about Debola?
What will Debora do in the future?
She can continue to play, but what about her?
She can't live in the little fairy's house all the time, right?
Rongguang has a hunch that maybe in a few days, Debora should move out.
At that time, he and she should not meet again, and he will continue to work towards the goal of becoming the top professional player in the world and making a lot of money, and he will also change his agent.
And Debora ...... Does she really want to carry the little fairy's one million on her body?
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Debola.
Debora made every movement very hard, her expression was tightened, and her originally beautiful face became strange, and there were still tear stains on her cheeks, but there were no more tears pouring out.
Seeing Debora like this, Glory also lowered his head and shoveled soil into the tomb without saying a word, he was very fast, like a robot.
No one spoke again until all the earth had been shoveled into the tomb and filled it up.
Then a tombstone was erected.
The tombstone bears Godot's full name: "Anderson Suarez da Silva"
Below is his nickname "Godot".
At the bottom of the tombstone is a line of epitaphs.
"Destined to become the greatest agent in the world, but it's a pity that God is jealous of talent."
