Chapter 14: There's no going back

took off the bag on his shoulder and entered the living room tiredly, and then looked back at the two people who were still standing at the door and hesitated and did not come in, Yan Xiao frowned, and had to ask again in an accented tone, "Do you want to come in?" ”

The two men glanced at each other before hurriedly walking in. Yang Jie, who was outside the door, inexplicably felt that the atmosphere was too weird, looked at Yanxiao's parents, and then looked at the serious Yanxiao, and hurriedly said, "What, Yanxiao, since you are back, my uncle and aunt have also brought it here, then I will leave first, there is still a bunch of work to be done, I will come to you again on the weekend, bye!" Before Yan Xiao could react, Yang Jie waved his hand and ran away.

Yan Xiao walked over and closed the door, without Yang Jie's chatter, there seemed to be only unbearable silence and embarrassment in the air.

Looking down at the dirty clothes on her body, she turned her head to the two people who were standing on the side and looked at her and said, "I'll go wash up, you guys sit down first." After saying that, he went to the room to get a change of clothes, and then ran into the bathroom.

Turning the shower to the maximum, a stream of heat spread along the splashed water, Yanxiao leaned against the wall, slowly sliding on the ground, she felt a little uncomfortable, uncomfortable because she saw two people she loved the most standing together, but there was a lot of strangeness in her heart.

Yan Xiao turned around and secretly opened the door to look into the living room, where the two of them were sitting on the sofa and whispering something. Familiar and unfamiliar images.

Yanxiao suddenly remembered that before, when she had just entered high school, every time she came back from vacation, as soon as she entered the door, her mother would mumble "stinky to death", and then she first rushed her to take a shower, and after washing, there were already various dishes she loved to eat on the table, and her father would sit on the sofa while watching TV, while chatting with her about recent national events, and her mother would sit and smile and watch her eat fragrantly, as if every bite of food had eaten in her heart.

Wiping away her tears, Yanxiao decided not to want to. got up and stood in front of the mirror, wiped the fog on the mirror, revealing a pair of red and swollen eyes, Yanxiao tried to squeeze out a smile, and silently said to the girl in the mirror: "Yanxiao, be stronger." ”

When Yanxiao cleaned up and opened the door, Yanxiao's father was visiting the living room, still muttering, "What kind of environment is this?" The house is so old, let Yanxiao go back with us, you have to go back! ”

The mother sitting on the sofa sighed, and was about to open her mouth to say something, when she turned her head to see Yan Xiao's wet hair standing there looking at them.

Mom immediately walked over, took the towel in Yanxiao's hand, and said angrily, "You kid, you came out without drying your hair, how many times have I told you, this will catch a cold." ”

Yanxiao tilted her head, avoided her mother's hand to wipe her hair, and said, "I'll do it myself." ”

Sitting on the sofa wiping his hair, he was silent for a long time, and finally asked, "Why are you here?" ”

The father on the side couldn't hold back his mouth, "Your mother can't get through when you call you, I'm afraid that you have something to do here, so the two of us rushed over as soon as we discussed it." But where did you go, kid? Don't tell us a word, I can't contact you for a few days, do you know how worried your parents are about you? ”

Yan Xiaoyan looked up at his father for a while before he replied lightly, "You come out together, do aunts and uncles agree?" ”

Terrible silence.

"Laugh! Do you have to do this to Mom and Dad? I divorced your mother, yes, I hid it from you and didn't discuss it with you, but this is also a decision that is good for both of us after we discussed it. After all these years, can't you forgive us? The father on the side was obviously irritated by the words of the smile.

"What about me? What about me when it comes to making this decision that is good for both of you? Yanxiao finally couldn't help but shout.

"You think it's for my good to hide from me, and you won't tell me until I'm done with the college entrance examination, do you know? When I wanted to share the joy of my life with you, you told me that my home was shattered and my parents were divorced. I was angry and reported the school far away, I didn't go back, I imagined that maybe you would care about my feelings, thinking about even the slightest possibility of getting back together, but what was I waiting for? You remarry! You remarry! You keep saying that you love me, have you ever thought of me when you are in love with others? Yes? ”

The mother on the other side looked at the red-eyed hoarse smile with tears in her eyes, her lips squirmed, and she finally didn't say anything.

got up and pulled the sulking Yanxiao father to the door, the mother looked back at her daughter again, after a few years, there was still grievance and sadness in those eyes, and she was sad to see, and turned around and walked quickly to Yanxiao, and hugged her daughter into her arms, "Xiaoxiao, mom loves you, mom has always loved you." ”

Feeling the slight struggle from the person in her arms, the smiling mother finally let go of her hand again and slowly retreated to the door.

Looking at the words and smiles that turned their heads and refused to look at them, the two hesitated, and finally opened the door and walked out.

The moment the door was closed, Yanxiao finally turned her head, tears still couldn't stop falling, she stared at the door deadly, her hand hesitantly raised, and finally put it down. There seems to be still the smell and warmth left by her mother when she hugged her, and God knows how much she longs for such a hug, and how much she longs for her home to return to the way it used to be.

There's no going back.
