2598 Fragments of the Soul 3 (1/2)

In the meantime, it was so cold all around, he was at a loss and did not dare to move.

Until...

A pair of gentle hands, hugged him from the cold ground.

He saw a delicate but cold face. It was a beautiful woman. The pure black eyes were as shiny as black diamonds, but they did not contain a trace of warmth. It was only that pair of hands that held some warmth.

The golden-eyed child was crying, the beautiful woman held him in her arms, but there was no expression on her face. When the golden-eyed child's nose blew a big bubble of snot, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.

It was a very shallow smile, so slight that it was almost undetectable.

But it was that faint smile that made his heart jerked. He could never in his lifetime erase that face from his soul.

As he and the golden-eyed child grew up day by day, there were no creatures around them except for the beautiful woman. The surrounding was still chaotic. Only one cabin accommodated the three of them.

The golden-eyed child laughed all day, and began to learn how to use the method the woman taught him to make a variety of small things.

But his heart couldn't hold anything, a pair of eyes were always staring at her.

The woman rarely laughed, except for the smile that she had when she first met them, he never saw her laughing again.

Time seemed so vague in the chaos. He didn't know how long had passed, each day he grew taller and taller still; from looking up at her, meeting her eyes at the level, and then bowing slightly. The pair of warm hands that once held him in her arms became so petite.

The woman talked a lot with him and the golden-eyed child, she taught them, and used their powers to create new creatures.

Gradually, he was not just looking at her from behind, he wanted to be closer to her, he no longer wanted to be taken care of like a child.
