However, the truth was that the so-called turning into ashes was just an illusion.
I wouldn't be reduced to ashes.
In a sense, this could be considered a terrifying form of capital punishment. It was also like a cruel death by a thousand cuts. Fate would not kill me, but it would torture me until the next layer of flesh was removed.
I felt like I had probably received my retribution.
"Xiachun, what's wrong?"
Probably startled by my shaking shoulders, Han Xiao turned on the lights and saw me biting the blanket, gritting my teeth, trying to hold it in. But my tears, one by one, covered the entire pillow.
She hugged me, probably trying to give me as much warmth as possible.
I greedily wanted to absorb her warmth. I hugged her and said softly, "Han Xiao, I'm afraid …"
I was afraid. I was afraid that sooner or later, this matter would be exposed to the light of day.
I was afraid. I was afraid of how Dongyu would look at me with disgust when he found out.
I was afraid. What I was most afraid of was being abandoned by the world.
…
The night passed in a daze. The next day, when Han Xiao woke up, I also woke up in a daze. When she saw that I was awake, she asked me to go to school with her.
I didn't dare to step through the school gate.
I said, I'm not going. You go ahead.
She asked me why I wasn't going to school.
I didn't say anything else.
She tried to persuade me, but I still refused to go. I wrapped myself in the blanket and curled up in the corner, hugging myself.
She couldn't do anything to me, so she had to leave. After she left, I locked the door and locked myself in the room. Then, I lay on the bed and looked up at the ceiling. My tears fell uncontrollably.
At that time, I was so desperate that it felt like the sky was about to fall.
But I didn't know who would hold on for me if the sky really did fall.
I knew that if I only knew how to cry, I would be too weak.
But in that case, other than crying, I didn't know how else to face myself. I had suffered so much for nothing.
I didn't feel hungry after not eating for a day.
I didn't feel thirsty after not drinking water for a day.
In the afternoon, I heard footsteps outside the door. It seemed like someone had returned. They hugged their shoulders timidly and shivered.
Then, someone knocked on the door. I didn't dare to speak or make any noise. I was afraid that it was Han Xiao's parents, but I heard Han Xiao's voice. Xiachun, it's me, Han Xiao.
Only then did I get out of bed. I walked to the door and unlocked it. Just as I opened the door, I saw Dongyu standing upright at the door. Seeing the door open, he barged in without waiting for me to react.
The door was instantly flung open.
I retreated in fear, glaring at him with a pale face. His face was filled with anxiety, anger, worry, and worry!
"Why didn't you go home?!"
Dongyu approached me and questioned me angrily, "Where did you go the night before? Do you know that Dad and Mom have been looking for you like crazy?! They've already called the police. They thought that you were missing and that something had happened to you! "
I stared at him, dumbfounded. Then, the anger of betrayal surged from my heart!
I looked at Han Xiao. Her thin body shrank to the side as if she was afraid that I would vent my anger on her. She didn't dare to look up at my eyes.
"Don't look at him! This matter has nothing to do with her! "
As Dongyu spoke, he reached out to grab my arm.
