Wait till the sun rises

Xu Jiming clenched his hands tightly, and he said, "Grandfather, what are you talking about?"

Grandpa Xia even wanted to prop himself up and sit up, but now he didn't even have the strength to speak.

The old man stared stubbornly at Xu Jiming's eyes, silently repeating two words.

--"separate."

Grandpa Xia held onto Xu Jiming's clothes tightly and tried his best to make a sound: "Promise me."

Xu Jiming shook his head subconsciously, at this moment Xia Yang who was lying on the bed moved a bit, then he sat up and said pleasantly: "Grandpa, you woke up, how do you feel?" After speaking, he said to Xu Jiming: "Go and call the doctor."

Xu Jiming seemed to be pardoned, and took several steps back before turning around. When he opened the door, he looked back and met the old man's eyes.

He is still looking at him.

There were too many emotions in Grandpa Xia's eyes that Xu Jiming couldn't see clearly. He didn't know why. At that moment, he just wanted to escape far away, not to look, not to think, not to listen.

He almost turned around in a hurry and ran wildly in the corridor of the hospital.

Father Xu came up to meet him from a distance, saw his son reprimanded him, "Why are you running? This is a hospital, what should I do if I bump into someone?"

Xu Jiming wiped his face and said hurriedly: "Grandpa is awake, I'll go to the doctor."

"Really?" Han Ling was a little surprised, she pushed her husband forward, "Go and see."

The doctor did not give a clear result after seeing Grandpa Xia's situation, but only said that he should stay in the hospital for observation and let them take good care of him.

Xia Yang looked very happy and sat by the bed all the time, and was finally driven out of the ward by Han Ling holding up his collar.

"And you." Han Ling pulled Xu Jiming and pushed him to Xia Yang's side, "Hurry up and take him back to rest, you'll soon become a national/treasure giant panda."

Xia Yang begged, "Aunt Han, just let me..."

Han Ling stared, "No, hurry back and rest."

Xia Yang hesitated at the same place, and Han Ling's tone softened: "Go back to sleep, and you can take care of grandpa after you have rested. After the weekend, your Uncle Xu and I will go back to work, and then you will have no choice but to rest."

Xu Jiming hooked Xia Yang's shoulders, Xia Yang took a step back and almost lost his footing, Xu Jiming took a step back, supported him with his body, and said, "I'll take you back, you can't even stand still."

Xia Yang turned to look at Xu Jiming, complaining silently with his eyes.

Xu Jiming stared at Xia Yang's eyes at close range, and the vitality that had disappeared did not necessarily gather in his eyes again.Xu Jiming's heart relaxed, and then he picked it up again, like knocking over a five-flavor bottle, all kinds of flavors were mixed together, and he couldn't tell what it was.

I just feel... uncomfortable.Why did grandpa suddenly regret it?Was it also because of this that he fell ill?

Xu Jiming dragged Xia Yang out, all the way silent, Xia Yang said: "Why is your face so ugly?" He stretched out his hand to touch Xu Jiming's forehead, took a step back and said, "I don't have a fever."

Just when Xia Yang's hand left his forehead, Xu Jiming grabbed his hand like lightning, Xia Yang was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Xu Jiming closed his eyes and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm sleepy, let's go back."

Xia Yang walked forward side by side with him, and he said, "Are you hungry?"

Xu Jiming asked, "Are you hungry?"

Xia Yang smiled a little embarrassedly, "Well, my heart was hanging all the time, and I didn't feel hungry, but now I feel like I'm going to starve to death."

Xu Jiming said: "Then go eat first, what do you want to eat?"

"I really want to eat your cooking now." Xia Yang sighed after speaking, and rejected the proposal by himself, "Forget it, you are quite tired, let's just find a restaurant to eat."

After ordering, Xia Yang poured water into the cup and said to Xu Jiming, "I think I can eat a cow first. Let's go to the supermarket when we go back and make some porridge for Grandpa."

Seeing him in high spirits, as if he had come to life, Xu Jiming turned the cup in his hand and called out in a low voice: "Xia Yang."

"Huh?" Xia Yang raised his eyes.

"If..." Xu Jiming said, "I mean, if something happens to Grandpa, what will happen to you?"

Xia Yang pushed aside the white porcelain cup in front of him, looked at Xu Jiming and said seriously: "I..."

"The dishes are here." At this moment, the proprietress brought up the fried shredded potatoes.Xia Yang's attention was immediately attracted, and he said, "Boss, let's serve the rice now."

When the two of them got home, took a shower, and were lying on the bed, Xia Yang suddenly spoke.

"I'm going to be very sad," he said.

Xu Jiming: "Huh?"

Xia Yang turned over, faced Xu Jiming, and said, "That's the question you just asked me in the restaurant."

Xia Yang said softly: "You also know that I was brought up by my grandpa since I was a child. Our grandpa and grandson have been together for so many years. If grandpa suddenly leaves one day, I may not be able to adapt for a while. Now I think of this kind of grandpa. The possibility of leaving me, I feel bad."

He groped under the quilt and grabbed Xu Jiming's hand, interlocking his fingers.

Xia Yang's voice was almost whispering, he said, "I know that people will grow old and die, and it is impossible to live forever. Even so, I still hope that the sooner that day comes, the better."

After a pause, he asked Xu Jiming, "Is my thinking not very good?"

"No." Xu Jiming turned around and hugged Xia Yang tightly in his arms, resting his chin on the top of his hair, "I would think the same way, everyone would think the same way. But, I know you are very strong."

Xia Yang seemed to smile in the dark, and he said, "If I was alone, I might collapse, but now that I have you by my side, I think I should be able to hold on."

Xu Jiming trembled, hugged Xia Yang tightly, and asked jokingly: "Grandpa or me, which one do you choose... hiss"

Before he finished speaking, Xia Yang pinched his back.

"It's too much." Xia Yang said, "You two are equally important in my heart. I want both of you, and no one can be missing."

"Yes." Xu Jiming said, "You and grandpa are equally important to me." I can't bear to part with either one.

But Xia Yang, life is never a fairy tale, and there are many times when we have to make choices.

——Even if it is against your will, we must make a choice!
