Before she was ten, she had the purest happiness in the world. She had a successful father and a gentle mother.
But the year she was ten, in one night, she lost the purest happiness in the world.
It was a Thursday, and her parents were going to a charity banquet. Before they left, her father patiently helped her finish her homework, and helped her solve her most vexing itinerary question. Her mother ran a bath for her, and even took out the pretty dress she was going to wear to school the next day and hung it by the bedside.
At that time, she was like a little adult, personally sending them to the door. She even raised her head, blinked her eyes, and reminded them to be careful.
Perhaps it was because she looked too cute and obedient at that time, her parents each kissed her on the face before waving goodbye to her and getting into the car to leave.
In order to nurture her independence, her mother would always ask her to wash her socks after bathing, but she would always find all sorts of excuses to avoid it. Even though her mother would scold her every time, in the end, it was always her mother who helped her wash them.
That night, she sent her parents off and went to take a shower. When she was drying her hair in front of the mirror, she saw the socks that she had thrown on the bathroom floor. Then, on a whim, she picked up the socks and washed them carefully. She even took the clothes hanger and hung them up. She thought happily that her mother would definitely praise her tomorrow.
But the next day, when she opened her eyes, what she got wasn't praise from her mother, but from her uncle, with red eyes, asking her to stay with him, okay?
At ten years old, she was still a child. She couldn't tell from her uncle's expression that there was something different. She just thought that when her parents were busy, they would leave her at her uncle's house, so she nodded in agreement. She even packed her own luggage.
Her uncle had a cousin who was the same age as her. The two of them had been very close since they were young. Children would be especially happy to have a companion, so she didn't feel anything strange at first. It wasn't until later, when her parents didn't come to pick her up that she went to ask her uncle and aunt. They told her that her parents had gone abroad and would only be back after a while. She believed it to be true, until one day, when she and her cousin had an argument over a toy. Her cousin said that her parents were dead and would never come back. At that time, she didn't understand the concept of death very well, but she was very afraid of the words' never coming back '. So in an instant, she burst into tears and startled her uncle and aunt.
That night, her cousin was called to stand in the study room as punishment. Her uncle and aunt comforted her for most of the night, telling her that her parents would be back soon. She didn't quite believe them, and for several days, she kept asking her uncle and aunt when her parents would be back.
Later, she gradually stopped asking, because she understood what her cousin was trying to say.
Her uncle and aunt had always been very kind to her. Whatever her cousin had, she had too. Some things were even better than her cousin's. She was grateful, but she didn't feel safe.
