Chapter 549

My name is barbaris. I'm a TV salesman from Wisconsin.

I have a beautiful wife who loves each other and a lovely little daughter.

Although our family of three is not very rich, they live happily.

In addition, I am a devout believer... An extremely devout believer

Babaris looked at the familiar and strange building, his lips trembling slightly. It has been more than a year since he left home.

After a while, barbaris summoned up his courage, walked slowly forward and rang the doorbell.

"Who?"

When the door opened, a haggard woman appeared.

"Hi, Amy."

Babaris tried to pull out a reluctant smile.

The woman opened her eyes wide. After a moment, she suddenly screamed, rushed forward and slapped babaris in the face.

Babaris touched his cheek and slapped him. To tell the truth, he was not wronged.

Half an hour later, babaris, who had changed his clothes, came down from upstairs. In the restaurant, his wife was preparing food, while his favorite little daughter sat at the table and looked at herself carefully and vigilantly.

"Hi, baby."

Babaris waved to her daughter. Her daughter bowed her head in panic and didn't dare to look at him again.

When a six-year-old girl needed her parents' love most, her father suddenly changed her temperament and ran away from home.

This left an indelible shadow in the girl's heart.

Babaris also knew that he had made a mistake. He stood at the door of the restaurant without enough measures, trying to get close to his daughter, but he didn't dare.

"Are you hungry? Come and sit down. "

Or the wife broke the embarrassment.

Babaris sat a little stiff where he had sat at the table. His wife Amy put a plate full of food in front of barbaris. Barbaris was tired and hungry. He didn't need a knife and fork. He started to wolf down.

Amy looked at babaris in surprise. Babaris also felt wrong and quickly wiped his mouth with a napkin: "sorry, I haven't eaten your meal for too long."

"Nothing, I'm just a little surprised."

"What accident?"

Amy sighed, sat down beside babaris and said softly, "before every meal, you had to pray first."

Babaris snorted and disdained while eating. "Don't worry, honey, I'll never do this useless work that wastes time again."

"God, barbaris, you've really changed a lot." Amy said in surprise, "remember when you ran away from home, you had to say that you felt the signs and heard the whispers of heaven, but now..."

Babaris reached out and took his wife's hand and said in a deep voice, "can you stop talking about it? Honey, I just want to return to my usual life and stay with you and never leave again. "

Amy pursed her lips and nodded heavily.

After missing for more than a year, babaris must have lost his original job, but fortunately he had previous work experience and began to re submit his resume online.

Having lost her family income, her wife worked as a cashier in the largest supermarket in the town. She usually had to pick up her children to school. It was very hard. But before finding a job, barbaris acted as a "housewife".

Although it was trivial, babaris felt very happy.

Everything seems to be back on track.

I still don't want to talk to myself except my daughter.

A week later, Amy came home from the night shift and told babaris a strange thing, which attracted babaris' attention.

"Raw meat?"

Barbaris frowned.

Amy nodded as she bowed her head and said, "yes, AP, it's our neighbor. Do you remember? It's not just him. His family are firm vegetarians. But tonight, he bought a big bag of raw beef. "

Babaris put down his cleaned dishes and went to the window to look at the house diagonally opposite. The whole three storey building is dark and can't see anything at all.

"What else? Is there any difference in his behavior from before? "

Babaris picked up another plate and slowly brushed it.

"Huh?" Amy hesitated for a moment, suddenly smiled and shook her head, "nothing. I should be dazzled."

Babaris turned and whispered, "what do you see?"

"Nothing, just for a moment, AP's eyes turned black." Amy smiled. "But I should have read it wrong, because when I look carefully again, there is no problem with his eyes."

"Clang..."

The plate in barbaris's hand slipped into the pool.

Amy was startled, hurried over, looked at the dull babaris and said softly, "are you okay? Put it down and let me brush it. Dear, I have said many times that you should not put too much pressure on yourself. If you can come back, my daughter and I will be very satisfied. "

Looking at his smiling wife, barbaris felt his throat ache. He took a deep breath, glanced out of the window again, picked up the plate and whispered, "we don't have much contact with the APU family?"

Amy tooted her mouth: "no, his family is strange. He is not close to anyone in the town. But people are good. They helped me pick up my daughter when I was busy. "

Babaris suddenly grabbed Amy's arm, gritted his teeth and said, "remember, from today on, they can never get close to their daughter again. Do you hear clearly?"

Amy was frightened.

Babaris took a deep breath and released his hand. "Sorry, I've been a little nervous lately. Go upstairs and coax your daughter to sleep. Just leave it to me. "

Amy nodded hesitantly, stood on tiptoe and kissed babaris on the cheek: "then hurry up, I'll wait for you."

Watching his wife go upstairs, babaris turned and looked out of the window. This time, although the small building diagonally opposite was still shrouded in darkness, babaris could feel that there were a pair of eyes staring at him bitterly in the darkness.

"Damn it, why can't you let me go? Why can't I go back to normal life? Why bother me? "

Barris clenched his fists. After a while, he pulled out a large bag of salt from the cabinet, poured it into the kettle, melted it with clean water, and came to the living room with the kettle.

From the closet in the living room, he took out a string of silver cross pendants and a Bible. Babaris put the cross into the kettle, opened the Bible and read it in a low voice.

More than ten minutes later, babaris closed the Bible, took out the cross from the kettle, and carved a small cross on the door lock handle of the living room.

"Honey, my daughter is asleep. Will you come?"

A soft cry from his wife came upstairs.

"Now, baby, give me some time. I want to make sure nothing can break in."

Babaris answered, took the cross and went to the other doors and windows.

Midnight.

Babaris suddenly opened his eyes. His wife was still sleeping. The bedroom was quiet at night, but he felt something unusual.

He sat up slowly and looked at the side window. I saw the curtain that had been closed, and I don't know when it dodged half. On the window glass, there was a huge palm print.
