[Comprehensive British and American] Eternal Sunshine
Chapter 5 The First Fork in the Road
Sealy's tenth birthday came on Christmas Eve with a lot of snow.
A fire had been lit in the old house in Kansas that had stood since Sealy's grandpa's grandpa's grandpa's, and the wood in the cast-iron fireplace was blazing.Bonnie, who was afraid of the cold in the winter, refused to sleep obediently in the dog house in the yard, and now she lay down at Clint's feet, enjoying the warmth brought by the fire with her eyes half-closed.On the wall behind the dining table are still family portraits from last year's Sealy's birthday, and this year, too, Mark will be fiddling with his precious camera after dinner to make the best picture ever.
Mark drove into town this morning and bought a beautiful roast turkey—not that he didn't want to make it himself, but that Christmas was coming and there were no decent turkeys in town.He also brought back a beautiful Christmas tree. Tomorrow everyone will decorate the tree beautifully together, and then the family will spend a wonderful Christmas Eve together.
Of course, the most important thing today is the birthday of the little princess.
"Boom—boom—" Miranda was baking the Yorkshire pudding she had just learned in the kitchen when someone knocked on the door. Mark was holding the camera to take pictures of the sumptuous dinner. Clint adjusted his glasses and said nothing I saw my granddaughter rushing towards the door.
"Clark!" Xilai opened the door. Clark, who had made an appointment to celebrate her birthday with her before the holiday, was holding a big blue gift box in his arms. There was also some shattered snow that hadn't melted.Uncle Jonathan's car was parked outside the yard, he waved to the two children and then drove away - this was their agreement that Clark would stay at Sealey's house today, Mark was the only one who objected, and there was no objection.
"Happy birthday!" Clark held the box in front of Sealy, looking at the blonde girl with bright blue eyes, "I'm not late, am I?"
"It's just in time for dinner," Sealy smiled and opened the door for Clarke, "Come in quickly." She naturally reached out to brush off the snow that fell on Clarke, but Clark avoided it.
Xi Lai, who waved his hand to nothing, froze in place.
Clark shook the snow on the spot before stepping into the warm porch, and said seriously to Sealy, "I'm too cold, Sealy." He could actually dry himself, he meant drying clothes, but It couldn't be done in Sealy's house, it was his and Sealy's little secret.
"Hurry up and don't catch a cold," Miranda handed the towel to Clark after finishing her work, "Honey, go and pour Clark a cup of hot cocoa."
"It's okay, I don't..." Clark hadn't finished speaking when he saw Sealy rushing towards the kitchen.
Then it becomes two kids sitting on a stool with a cup of hot cocoa each, waiting for dinner to start.Grandpa Clint put away the newspapers slowly. After winter, his joints always ached, and his movements were inevitably not as flexible as usual.Bonnie rushed at Clark wagging her tail—it was Clark's favorite member of the family besides Sealy, maybe...same-sex attraction?
Clark stretched out his hand and rubbed Bonnie's head that had been rubbed against his lap, and decided to take Bonnie out to play when the snow stopped.
Sealy was unpacking Clark's gift. The gift box was tied with a beautiful flower, which looked like Aunt Martha's work.With a light twitch, the silver ribbons were scattered all over the ground, and then the lid of the box was lifted, and the true face of the gift came into Xi Lai's eyes.
It was an exquisite wooden house, exactly the same as the house she lived in since she was a child. There was even Bonnie's room on the lawn in front of the house, which had been shrunk many times.The door of the room can be opened, and the moment it is opened, the room lights up twinkling, and then a small shiny crown rolls out from the door.
Clark said with some embarrassment: "I learned from my father, and the one I made was not as beautiful as my father's, so I bought this again..." When he passed by the gift shop in the town, he felt that the little crown must be very suitable for Xilai. As a result, there was only a small change left in the pocket money that went in and out of the pocket.
Sealy carefully placed the gift on the little shelf where her babies were displayed, and then hugged Clark with a big smile: "I love it so much!! This is the best gift I've ever received !!"
Mark's father, who also prepared a shiny headdress for his precious daughter, covered his chest, feeling a little bit like hitting someone.
"Okay boys," Miranda said, putting the last Yorkshire pudding on the table, "it's time to eat!"
"Happy birthday to our best celeste!"
"Happy birthday!"
Her birthday is December 23, the day before Christmas Eve. The biggest birthday she ever had was at the age of 15, and she never knew what a birthday was.
Arkham also has Christmas-according to the nonsense of humanitarian or human rights organizations, prisoners cannot be deprived of the right to celebrate Christmas. They cannot leave this "prison" named after a mental hospital, but they can enjoy Christmas dinner and even There is also a small cake after the meal.
On Christmas Eve.
On the first Christmas Eve, Pamela gave the cake to Xilai, saying that it was a Christmas gift for the children, and the pot of flowers was sent along with the cake.
Xi Lai ate two small cakes by himself. They were not very delicious. They were a bit hard baked, without the softness made up of egg cream and starch. There was a lot of sugar, and they were very sweet. Really sweet, so sweet. Lai retched for a long time after eating.
"Is this year's spring outing also going to the Botanical Garden?" When all the winter snow melted into a gurgling stream, it was time for the school to organize children to go out to play. Xi Lai asked Clark while lying on the back of the chair.
Clark, who was obediently doing his homework, was good enough for him to see clearly the untouched practice questions on Xilai's desk: "I heard that it is not, but Xilai must hand in his homework before the spring break wherever he goes."
"I hate math." Sealy pursed her lips, and reluctantly turned around to write those boring math problems.
In fact, he also... Clark said that he wanted to set a good example for Sealy.
The math teacher who had just been called out returned to the classroom and patted her hands to attract the children's attention: "Hi babies," and after the fourth grade they were replaced by an older female teacher Come to teach mathematics, the white sideburns hide the old-fashioned eye frame, but this is a very easy-to-get-together teacher, "I just got good news. This year's spring outing, we are going to the Metropolitan Museum. Are you happy?"
There are still many children here who have never been to the big city that only the adults have heard of, and they suddenly laughed and laughed.
Even Clark's expression became full of anticipation, he had never been to the Metropolis, he only heard about how lively the Metropolis is from his good friend Sealy, and the high-rise buildings are full of traffic, which is something that a boy in a small town has never seen before. past prosperity.
"We're leaving on Friday morning," the math teacher knocked on the podium to make the children quiet, "bring your schoolbags and water glasses, snacks are not allowed in the museum, you can only bring lunch at noon, or lunch money Okay. Go back tonight and talk to your parents about this matter, and ask them to sign here." She took out a note and pointed to the lower right corner, "Luther, send it for me notify."
"Good teacher."
"Will Uncle Jonathan and Aunt Martha agree with you?" Seelay asked worriedly knowing that Clark's parents had never dared to let him go too far.
"If Sealy is here, they will definitely agree," Clark thanked Luthor who sent the note to him, and then continued to reply to Sealy, "With you here, there will be no problem."
Silly curled her lips.
Sure enough, the Lynch family, whose family has a lot of property in the metropolis, had no complaints at all. I was a little worried that Clark's special Jonathan and Martha knew that Sealy would also go, although they were still not very happy. Don't worry, but it didn't stop Clark from letting him go.
To be precise, Jonathan was worried, and Martha comforted her.
"Clark will be fine if Sealey is here." Martha said to Jonathan while packing the schoolbag that Clark was about to take out, "Trust your son, it's not like he can't control his own child anymore."
They are Clark's bond at home, and Sealy is also Clark's bond.
Jonathan finally agreed with Martha's idea.
On the day of the spring outing, Xilai was put into a very cute set of denim overalls by Miranda. The pink doll-collared shirt was printed with an orange cat holding a ball of yarn. She is fluffy, which matches her fluffy little leather boots very well.The most important thing is that she is carrying a super cute rabbit backpack, with long rabbit ears hanging on the left and right sides, which made many little girls look envious.
Even Weaver, who had been at odds with Sealy, watched it for a long time and grunted a few times, but he couldn't say that ugly man is at fault—he couldn't open his eyes and say such nonsense, let alone talk about it. No one will agree with him when he comes out.
Clark, who arrived a little earlier than Sealy, had already reserved a seat for Sealy on the school bus. He grabbed the seat in the front row and reserved the window seat on the less sunny side for Sealy.
As a result, I didn't expect that when the direction of the car changed on the road, Xilai would become the hottest place.
Clark scratched his head in embarrassment, and blamed himself for not thinking of this: "Well, why don't we change positions, I want to bask in the sun."
Knowing the relationship between the Kryptonians and Huang Sun, of course, Xi Lai would not refuse. She stood up and wanted to move to the outside of Clark. Just as Clark was about to say that I should get out first, the school bus suddenly stepped on the brakes when it was crossing the intersection.
Suddenly, in order to protect Xilai from hitting the front, Clark reflexively hugged Xilai's waist, and then under the action of inertia——
Silly slumped down on his lap.
