In a blink of an eye, nearly ten years have passed.
The heavy snow in Aurous Hill is getting bigger and bigger. The Moments of Friends, Weibo, and TikTok are almost all about the content of this snow. Even Mr. Song posted a Moments of Friends and took a picture of the snow scene from the upper floor of the villa. The photo is accompanied by five words: “Blessings of the Year.”
Warnia also posted to Moments. There is no picture. There is only one sentence: “I wrote your name in the snow. I was afraid that people would see it clearly, so I wiped it away…”
Charlie guessed that the “your” she said should be himself, but he did not like or leave a message.
That night, Charlie accompanied Claire, playing in the snow for a long time, until after twelve o’clock, the two went back to the room to rest.
Turning off the light, Charlie lay on his half of the bed tossing and turning.
Now, there are less than ten hours left before his return to Eastcliff in 18 years.
Claire didn’t fall asleep either. At night, she suddenly got into Charlie’s bed from his bed, hugged h!m from behind, and said emotionally in his ear: “My husband, you will leave tomorrow, I will Miss you……”
Charlie nodded lightly, stroking her tender hands, with emotion in his heart.
Charlie hardly fell asleep this night.
Fortunately, his body has long been different from ordinary people, even if he stays up all night, there is no discomfort.
Since it was ten o’clock in the morning, he had to arrive at the airport before nine o’clock, so Charlie got up very early.
When he got up, Claire, who had made snowmen until twelve o’clock last night, hadn’t woken up yet.
Charlie didn’t want to disturb her either. He left a note on the bedside and wrote: “My wife, I’m leaving. Do wait for me to come back.”
After that, he changed his clothes, brought his wallet and credentials, put a few rejuvenating pills on his body, and left the bedroom.
When he got downstairs, Elaine, the mother-in-law wearing an apron, immediately drove out from the kitchen and said affectionately: “Oh my son-in-law, why do you get up so early today?”
Charlie said: “I’m going to Eastcliff today, and I won’t be back in a few days.”
Elaine hurriedly said diligently: “Oh, going today? Mom made you preserved egg and lean meat porridge. Eat a bowl before you go!”
Charlie waved his hand: “No, the plane is earlier, I have to go there earlier.”
Elaine said hurriedly: “Oh, then I’ll give it to you!”
After speaking, she hurried out and followed Charlie all the way to the door.
“Good son-in-law, do you want me to drive you to the airport?”
Charlie shook his head: “No, I’ll take a taxi.”
Elaine blurted out: “Why don’t you let your dad drive you? Anyway, he is idle all the time.”
