“Then she did not take good care of Tangtang. She lost her.”
Mrs. Su said so emotionally. All this happened like uncovering some scars in her heart. At that time, she simply couldn’t face the pain of losing her son, so she didn’t consider that little girl. As for the little girl’s death because of this, it was totally out of her expectation. Then, she thought that the little girl would be in a little poor health at most without a kidney.
Seeing his mother fall into a state of guilt, Su Ye patted her on the back. Then he stood up and said, “Mom, I don’t mean to blame you. You go rest. It’s not early.”
After that, he turned around and walked towards his room on the third floor.
His room was only painted in two colors, gray and white. It was very simple inside the room, with only a bed, a big white wardrobe, a hanger and a sofa.
He went in, turned on the light in the room, and sat in the gray sofa.
At this time, his eyes turned gray as well, no luster perceivable within.
Again, he grasped the necklace in his hand tightly. Then he took off the little jade pendant he wore around his neck, and held the two things together tightly.
—
22 years ago, Hai City, Su family.
In the small house near the river, a six-year-old boy was lying in a big white bed. The bed was very big, making the little boy lying in it look even smaller.
He gritted his teeth tightly, the pain in his body making him look haggard and pale, just like the color of the sheet. He had been in pain for a long time, not knowing how long he still needed to suffer.
At the bedside, there was a little girl, who was under four years old, looking at the little brother in the bed. From time to time, she reached out her hand and patted him, showing a naive smile.
“Little brother, will you come down and play with me?” The little girl pursed her little mouth, seemingly a little unhappy. She had been here for several days, but the little brother had been sleeping all the time rather than play with her.
The little boy just smiled faintly. Although only six years old, he was much more sensible and intelligent than other normal children.
He knew that the little girl in front of him was here to save his live. His mother told him that the blood type of this little girl was RH negative O type, the same as his and that the kidney of the little girl fitted him well. As long as the little girl gave him one kidney, he could continue to live.
“Tangtang…” The little boy suddenly reached out his hand, skinny and bony, which even trembled with no strength.
He stroked the little girl’s red face and pulled his hand back suddenly. Then he took a small necklace off his neck, which was a platinum necklace with a cross as pendant. He had it on since he was born.
“Tangtang, here you are.” The little boy handed the necklace over to the little girl, then sat up from the bed, helping the little girl put it on.
The little girl looked down at what was hung around her neck. It was shiny and beautiful, much more beautiful than the white stone she was wearing.
The little girl thought for a moment, then she took off the little pendant she had worn around her neck and put it beside the pillow, saying, “Little brother, this little stone is for you.”
The little girl did not know that what she had been wearing was actually a little jade.
