Can the sadness that magic cannot take away be offset by love?

At ten o'clock in the evening, Ernest temporarily ended the work at hand and looked out the dormitory window at the moon hanging high on the treetops. The cool night breeze blew his hair flying, and his eyes fell several times on the smart network on the table and the burn ointment placed next to the smart network.

Silently, he finally pulled out a document from the drawer and spread it out on the table, covering the slightly shining smart network below.

Aecilia hid under the quilt, hesitated again and again, deleted, modified, and changed in the editing box, but still sent a message to Ernest. After waiting for a while and not receiving a reply, she turned off the smart network and turned to look at the moon outside the window. .

The moonlight is hazy, the clouds are far away, the wind is playing softly, and under the same night sky, two string sounds are coming together in different directions.

Angelia then opened the door and returned to the dormitory. Seeing that she was still asleep, she smiled and said hello:

"Esilia?"

Aecilia looked back at her and smiled:

"Angelia, why are you back so early today? Don't you usually have to paint very late?"

"Because I just changed an art teacher today. The original teacher had to take care of a family member who suddenly fell ill, so Lucius helped me find a new teacher. The new teacher didn't let me sleep late."

Maybe it’s not that your new teacher won’t let you sleep late.

Aecilia answered silently in her heart and said calmly:

"The forum sent out a notice that there will be a credit event tomorrow afternoon. Do you want to go with it?"

Angelia nodded:

"I also saw the notice. Let's go together."

She put down her schoolbag, closed the bed curtain before going to bed, and then said:

"Good night...I didn't know Aecilia was also good at drawing."

Hearing this, Aecilia quickly turned her head away and met her eyes on her bed curtain with a little rabbit painted on it. She was silent for a while and said softly:

"Angelia taught me well."

With a "swish" sound, Aecilia also closed the bed curtain.

Angelia couldn't help but curl up her lips in the dark space. She touched the painting that was placed under the pillow.

Through the elegant moonlight outside the window, you can see a rabbit lying on the table and drawing with a brush on the paper, with a focused expression and a short, fluffy tail growing behind its buttocks. It is white and cute.

The rabbit's feet were still dangling at the foot of the high stool, one of its long ears stood high and the other half drooped.

On the small drawing paper in front of the rabbit, there was only a vague outline of a long, irregular-shaped animal.

Aecilia dreamed of a cat fishing by the river and a rabbit grazing on the shore. Suddenly the clouds gathered, and a dark shadow stepped forward and took away the cat, which had not caught any fish. The rabbit smiled and looked at the cat held by the shadow, and then flipped it over with a paw. The whole grassland. The cat was frightened, and the world in its amber pupils was destroyed and shattered. When she opened her eyes again, Aecilia saw the ceiling that was being illuminated yellow by the sun.

... Confused about her strange dream, Aecilia raised her head and stared blankly for a while. The sound of water rushing from the bathroom reminded her, so she turned over and got out of bed and started washing up.

After washing, Angelia sat on the chair and looked at her eagerly, like a child in an adult clothing store waiting with wide eyes for her mother to take her home after trying on clothes.

After wiping her hands, Aecilia ruffled her hair, untied her hair tie under Angelia's disbelieving gaze, and tied her hair up again.

"Tie your hair tightly. There may be a fight today."

When Angelia thought that this was indeed the case, she let her roommate do what she did.

Satisfied, Aecilia let her go, and the two of them discussed what to have for breakfast while walking out of the dormitory.

After the two decided to eat Yangchun noodles with braised duck feet, Angelia paused and murmured:

"Don't the credit activities start in the afternoon? I have to tie my hair again when I get up at noon..."

Aecilia looked as usual and said:

"Don't feel sorry. I can tie it up for you again in the afternoon."

Angelia looked at her with complicated eyes and sighed.

"Esilia..."

Aecilia raised her ears alertly and looked at her.

"My brother said that if anyone touches my head except for family members, I will not grow taller."

Ecilia, who thought she was responsible for touching the rabbit's head:.

Aecilia: "He lied to you."

Angelia looked at her quizzically.

"My brother never lies to me."

This time it was Ecilia's turn to sigh.

"The reason why you don't grow taller is because when your head was touched, it was pushed down by hands. If I touch your head, you won't grow taller, and if your brother touches it, you won't grow taller either."

Under Angelia's gaze, which ranged from bewilderment to shock to disbelief, Aecilia then gave her the final blow:

"So, your brother doesn't care whether you grow taller or not, he just wants to touch your head."

Walking ahead with a victor's attitude, Angelia, who was left in a petrified state, looked at her back in confusion. She sighed: "Morning is really the most beautiful moment of the day."

Angelia shed tears behind her.

"Morning is the worst time of the day."

During the Potions class on Monday morning, Professor Albinia fell into a trance five times. When she was looking out the window with her chin on one hand, the class ended without a miss just before the potion on the table was about to explode.

A classmate reminded the professor to pay attention to the heating time of the potion bottle. Albinia nodded honestly. Aecilia, who was sitting in the front row and had been frightened for the entire class, heard an explosion behind her when she left the classroom door. They looked at each other in confusion with Angelia beside them, and then the two of them rushed back into the classroom, hitting flying glass shards head-on.

In the end, Professor Albinia, who was unscathed, patiently put bandages on the two of them and said at the same time:

"Be careful next time and don't get too close to something on the verge of collapse..."

Why not talk about the potion bottle on the verge of exploding? Aecilia felt that there was something in her words, but at this time, they could not make it to the next class, so the two of them hurriedly said goodbye to Albinia and rushed to the next classroom.

Albinia stared at the two people's retreating figures, and she didn't know what she thought of. Her eyes were faint, revealing unspeakable sadness.

She suddenly felt warm under her feet. She looked down and saw a black cat wrapped around her ankle, and a pair of red high heels appeared in front of her eyes.

Ernest found some free time during the break, took out the smart network and looked at it, and found an unread message.

"Thank you for taking me to the treatment room last time."

For him, who has to deal with a lot of things every day, this is already a long time ago, but for Aecilia, this only happened a few days ago.

His fingers paused in mid-air, and he typed a reply:

"You're welcome."

Aecilia saw this message after class and thought that their extremely brief chat was over. She put it back on the smart network and discussed with Angelia what to eat for lunch.

"Want to eat lamb chops..."

"Hmm... Stir-fried beef with white radish and fried eggs."

"Didn't you say that if you add vegetables in the morning, you won't add them at lunch and evening?"

"Ah? I don't remember. What I said in the morning has anything to do with it at noon."

"But you asked me to supervise you..."

Angelia's tone sounded a little weak, aggrieved and helpless.

"Then you can supervise me at night."

Aecilia met Angelia's bewildered gaze and made a decision happily.
