Ainsley had always lowered her head to look at the Godfather’s face as she told her story in her mind.
Her voice sounded a bit cheerful, but...
Her face was already a mess.
Drops of tears fell to the bedsheet, landing on the man’s chest and face.
But none of these tears ever landed on the man’s skin.
They just went through the man and landed on the bed sheet, forming a blooming grayish flower of tears.
[G-godfather?]
Seeing the man suddenly open his eyes, Ainsley’s heart jumped to her throat.
She didn’t know whether to be happy or not, but before she could convince herself...
The Godfather slowly lifted his left hand.
He used up all his energy to lift his palm...
And he slowly touches the girl’s wet cheek.
[....little brat. Why are you crying? You look so...ugly.]
The man wiped Ainsley’s wet cheek with the back of his hands, yet the sparkles had already "swallowed" his entire chest, spreading to his left and right arms.
Ainsley just stared blankly at those deep eyes and the palm on her cheek.
She felt nothing.
She couldn’t even feel his body temperature— whether cold or warm.
Yet somehow, Ainsley remembered the man’s warm hug in the parallel world.
So...his palm must be warm as well.
Right?
Ainsley tried to grab the man’s palm, but the sparkles swallowed him faster than she could move.
The palm slowly disintegrated into sparkles, leaving only the fingers still stubbornly wiping the girl’s tears.
[...don’t cry. I want to see you with a smile...]
For the last time.
He couldn’t utter the last few words, but Ainsley immediately tried her best to smile as bright as she could.
Her eyes were full of light and laughter. She pulled her trembling lips together to form a brilliant and innocent smile.
Even if her eyes were red. Even if her eyesight was blurry from all the tears.
Even if tears kept streaming down her face...
She looked at the Godfather’s head on the bed with the sweetest smile she ever showed to anyone.
[Uncle, thank you...]
Thank you for everything.
But none of them said goodbye.
Because goodbye means forever.
[Host, see you...]
See you somewhere in the future.
Ainsley stared blankly at the golden and blue sparkles.
She scooped the sparkles and took out a jar out of thin air, trying to keep some of the sparkles inside the jar.
But no matter how hard she tried, she could only collect a little sparkle, so little that it couldn’t even fit a bottle as big as her pinky finger.
The rest of the sparkles blended with the sunlight and rushed towards the sky.
The sparkles bypassed the ceiling, flew freely to the blue sky.
The golden and blue sparkles intertwined with each other, never separated.
As the sparkles reached the blue sky, they slowly blended with the heaven and earth, giving the last blessing to the mansion and the people beneath it.
Ainsley rushed out of the bedroom.
She ran all the way to the front yard.
Her heart was beating fast in her chest. Tears kept dropping to the marble cold floor underneath her feet.
She didn’t even wear shoes and just rushed to the front yard.
She wanted to see the end destination of those sparkles!
Ainsley managed to catch up with the last handful of sparkles in the air.
Surprisingly, when Ainsley went to the front yard, the remaining sparkles descended and twirled around her.
Some of the sparkles got blown by the wind and got stuck to her hair, her head, her cheeks...
It was as if these two people rubbed her head and her cheeks at the same time, saying:
"We will always be here with you."
Even if they weren’t here.
The sparkles dissipated with the golden sunlight.
Those sparkles on Ainsley’s head or cheeks seemed to be absorbed and soon, also disappear.
Only the small amount of blue and golden sparkles inside the pinky-sized glass jar remained, not disappearing like the rest.
Ainsley watched all of this with blank eyes.
The people around her had already rushed to her side, but no one dared to get close.
They could only watch as the girl slowly knelt on the ground with her heads lifted high, as if to see the two figures flying happily in the sky.
Tears streamed down her cheeks to the ground, but the baby still forced a smile.
Thank you. Thank you for everything.
I’m seeing you off with a smile.
So....see you.
See you in the future.
