Chapter 139 - Siyings Dilemma (1/2)
”Mama...Dada…” Siying cried hard. ”Don't go. Siying will be a good boy now. Siying will always listen to Mama and Dada…”
”We don't want to hear you cry anymore! Leave us! First, you make a mistake. Then you cry. We are tired now. Mama and Dada cannot live with you anymore.”
Their images faded away and Siying's eyes suddenly flew open. Sweat trickled down his forehead and he looked around in panic. The forest he saw just now and the voices he heard disappeared. He saw Xinyi sleeping to his right and Zhiyuan on his left. Xinyi's hand was gently resting on his chest.
His black irises watered and he was about to cry loudly, but he suddenly remembered his dream.
'We don't want to hear you cry anymore!'
He covered his mouth and gasped. Tears stained his cheeks and he tremblingly got up. He looked at Xinyi and then at Zhiyuan. His cheeks swelled as he held his urge to cry. He slowly trotted down the bed and walked towards the door. He tried to reach the doorknob as he stretched his hand, but with his small height, he couldn't.
But it wasn't too far.
So, he hopped up and down until he caught it. Hanging in the air with its support for a few seconds, he somehow twisted the knob. The door slightly opened and he jumped down again. Siying widened the gap and quickly slid out.
He found a corner and collapsed near a pillar as he silently bawled his eyes out.
”Mama...Dada…” he sniffled and cried as he rubbed his eyes.
He cried for a long time like that before he heard some footsteps.
”Huh? What are you crying here for?” Han Guang was taken aback. She was on her way to the kitchen for some water when she suddenly heard someone's soft cries.
Siying was startled by her sudden appearance. ”Ma-Mama…”
She grimaced. ”Don't talk about that woman in front of me!”
He jolted. Tears streamed even more vigorously than before. ”Mama Dada…bad dweam...Mama Dada hurt…” he gasped. ”Mama Dada not live with Siying anymore…”
She raised her brow and it finally struck her. Just a few hours ago, she got to know the whole mess that happened at the picnic. Seeing Siying's condition, she understood why he was sobbing like that. That incident had left a deep impression on his mind.
I see…
A dangerous glint flashed past her eyes. She sneered. ”Of course Xinyi and Zhiyuan will leave you. Do you have any idea what you did? You almost killed your parents!”
Siying's tearful eyes blinked. ”Kill?”
He didn't understand what that meant.
”Yes. Killed. It means to die and never come back.”
He turned pale.
”You see in cartoons right? The bad guy dies in the end and never returns? That is what I mean. Your Mama and Dada would have never returned alive. It was because of your stupid plan that Xinyi and Zhiyuan were going to die. Well, they didn't. But of course, it's your mistake!”
It's your mistake!
The words rang in Siying's ears again and again and the guilt in his heart increased even further.
Han Guang continued. ”And that Xinyi tsk. Still acting as a loving and caring mother. After almost dying for good, she is smiling as if nothing happened. Do you know how badly she is angry at you?”
”No…” Siying cried. ”Mama Dada said they not angry with Siying…They will not leave me…”
”Hah! Of course, they are lying! Who wouldn't be furious at you? They almost lost their lives and you expect them to still love you? They just don't want you clinging onto them like a pest and irritating them with your tears. That is fake! They hate you!”
He shook hard in fear.
”Especially Xinyi! You cannot believe anything she says,” she sneered. ”She just wants to act like a kind Goddess and show how great she is. Do you think any mother wouldn't be angry at what you did? There is a limit to which a parent can bear a child's tantrums. Of course, she blames you for getting her hurt. In her heart, she hates you for making her go through that mess.”
”No...Mama not lie…” he gasped. ”Mama loves me..”
”Oh please!” She snorted. ”After this incident, she must be thinking how good it would be if she didn't have a son like you. Parents don't like kids who are too troublesome. And you have been nothing but trouble to Xinyi. Do you think she will love you? Never! Especially after how you planned to kill her! She doesn't want you anymore but she is helpless too,” she sighed.
That was so traumatic to Siying's mind that he aligned her words with the dream he saw just now. In the dream too, Xinyi and Zhiyuan wanted to leave him and now Han Guang said the same thing.
