happy life?strange

Severus made a point of calling Linda again to apologize.Linda was very concerned when she heard that Severus was unwell. Although Severus repeatedly stated that there was no major problem with his health, Linda happily ran over the next afternoon on the pretext of writing a thesis .

"Severus, are you feeling better?" Linda looked at the pale and thin boy sitting on the back chair with concern but always smiling slightly.

"It's okay, maybe it was blown by the cold wind." Severus didn't want to add any burden or trouble to others because of his own body.

Because, he is already very satisfied, because, except for the reason of the body that occasionally feels regretful and sad, all other hazes have left him.He has a grandfather who cares about him, an enthusiastic and pure classmate, Robert who always makes high-quality potions for him despite his poisonous tongue, and Huxley who always tolerates his little waywardness and helps him deliver letters.The air in the United States is more free, there is no depressive discrimination, no chilling so-called "pranks" among students, and even, because of the vault in Gringotts given by Zabini and Porter, even the pressure of life and survival disappear completely.

---Even if he leaves the world, he is already satisfied.

"You always pay so little attention to your body. Do you still remember that when you took the activity class for the first time in high school, you had to hold on even though you were not in good health? Later, when you fainted and sent to the hospital, we found out that your body was too Weak." Speaking of this, Linda was very angry. Although Severus was gentle on the surface, he was always a little stubborn, and sometimes he insisted on himself for fear of others worrying about him.It always gives people the illusion of a little adult, but Linda snickered, she just asked Grandpa Thompson to bring Severus a glass of milk on purpose.Watching Severus gulp down the milk with disgust and frustration on his face.It was only at this time that Severus would show a little boyishness.

In high school, Severus was as thin and pale as ever, with a transparent and misty feeling in the sun, like a cicada that was about to enter the end of summer and early autumn, with a restrained weakness and an illusion of dissipated vitality.Linda was an active person in the class at the time. During the activity class, she saw Severus sitting quietly under the tree reading a book, pieces of gold scattered on him, and there was a tranquility like blue water around the boy. and loneliness.Maybe it was trying to break that feeling, maybe it was trying to make Severus fit in with his classmates instead of just standing aside and simply smiling.She forced Severus to go to the event, even if she didn't want to run and play together, she wanted Severus to watch or discuss with her classmates.

The summer sun was hot and fierce, although Linda felt the refreshment of sweating and the vitality after exercise.However, even just standing under the scorching sun, Severus' body couldn't hold on anymore, his eyes began to turn black, and his body was screaming in pain.The previous incidents had caused irreparable damage to his health. Although Robert's potion was very effective, and although his body had improved with the help of Huxley and Robert, the potion did not It is not a magic medicine, and it cannot restore his body to the state of a normal person.He couldn't pick up things that were too heavy, not to mention strenuous activities, even a little bit of strenuous activity would make his heart ache, making him unable to breathe and chest tightness.And when the climate changes, the disease will come on time.

Seeing Linda pulling Severus closer, the students around were very excited, because although Severus has always been gentle, has excellent grades and is willing to help them with homework, he always likes to read books and is always alone Quietly, as quiet as leaves in the sunlight outside the window.Students want to play with him but don't know how to bring up the topic.Now that Severus was finally playing with them, even standing up, it made them happy to feel that he was finally part of the group.Severus didn't want to disappoint his enthusiastic classmates, thinking that maybe the feeling of dizziness would pass after a while, so he kept holding on.And the students were too happy to realize that Severus, who was already pale, didn't break a sweat under the sun, and his face was even paler than the ruddy under the sun.

Finally, Severus, unable to hold on any longer, passed out.The flustered students found out in panic when they sent him to the doctor that even in such a hot summer, Severus' body in long sleeves was still so terribly cold, as if he had just been fished out of cold water.When everyone was already sweating profusely, he didn't sweat at all, and his face was as pale as a dead person.

After the doctor's diagnosis, he told the worried classmates that Severus' body seemed to have suffered a lot of damage for some reason, but he couldn't find the reason.Because all of Severus' physical indicators were below normal, from some aspects, this boy could be said to be very weak.The doctor also admitted that there was nothing he could do in such a situation, and maybe he could only pay attention to the usual recuperation.

After Severus woke up, Linda plucked up the courage to apologize, but unexpectedly, the boy just smiled lightly, said lightly that it was okay, and casually said that he blamed himself for his poor health, which instead caused them trouble.

On the white hospital bed, a young man wearing a large white hospital gown was leaning weakly on the bed. The loose clothes made the young man thinner and thinner. His face was the same color as the bed sheet. Outside the window, the shadows of trees were whirling, and the sound of cicadas was unhurried. With his own singing, he is counting the time of the end of his life.

Such a scene reminded Linda of the boy she saw for the first time. It was in the school library. He was standing by the window. The white muslin curtains blew across the boy's drooping face, appearing and disappearing like sunlight. The light refracted by the water drops of the fountain below is penetrating but unobtainable.

When leaving the ward, Linda turned her head and saw the young man on the hospital bed staring out of the window blankly, with a thin and fair neck and a worryingly thin back. A part of Linda's heart suddenly felt very soft, so soft that she wanted to Smiling and crying at the same time, she didn't know what kind of emotion it was, she only knew that she wanted this boy to let Severus' shallow brook-like eyes in the forest stay on her more, She wanted the corners of Severus' mouth to curl up slightly, with a smile of winter sunshine, to be able to listen to her boring words.Also, she wanted Severus to show more expressions, whether helpless, annoyed, or childish.Don't always be so gentle, so gentle that there is a solid and insurmountable wall between you and others.

Linda kept her own thoughts, and at the same time found that Severus could not refuse the sincere kindness of others.The little girl took advantage of this and cunningly asked her classmates to find Severus, and dragged him to play with classmates and participate in activities together. Of course, the careful girl was always careful not to let Severus become weak. The body suffers other injuries.

It was precisely because he understood Linda's kindness and the friendliness of his classmates that Severus did not reject their approach, and therefore, Linda could be regarded as his best friend besides Robert and Huxley.

Linda looked at Severus who was lazily sitting on the chair. After all these years, he was still as close as he was in the library.However, Linda still felt very happy, because in front of her, Severus finally showed some other expressions, some, such as childish or helpless expressions.

"Severus, did you...faint again yesterday?" Because he knew Severus' temper, if he didn't really feel unwell to a certain extent, he would never make an appointment with himself but not go.

Severus frowned and turned his head to the side as if he didn't want to say more. In fact, he didn't know how to tell Linda what happened yesterday, and he didn't want to make up a lie to deceive her, so he could only keep silent.

"I knew it, you must have passed out again. Didn't you go to the hospital?" Linda was still very worried, after all these years, Severus' body was still so weak, still so thin and young The appearance is completely lacking in the healthy, youthful appearance.She also didn't know what happened to this young man before to make his body so bad.

"By the way, Linda, where's your thesis? It just happened to help you look at it today." Maybe this body won't be able to get better in this life, Severus frowned, although he knew this fact, although he was no longer too much However, I am still very unaccustomed to others always putting his body on the lips so that he can always remember that his body is no longer healthy, and he can no longer jump up and down like ordinary people. up.The life of the energetic teenager under the sun has completely gone away from him.

Linda, who had been changed without realizing that Severus was slightly upset, took out the paper.Severus began to explain the idea of ​​the thesis to Linda, and Linda looked up at the young boy's focused side face from time to time, thin and sparse.

After explaining the thesis, I discussed with Linda her electives for the next semester. It was getting late. Grandpa insisted on letting Linda have dinner together, and Linda happily accepted.But seeing that Severus said he was full after eating only a little, Linda couldn't help but said, "Severus, how can you only eat that much. Look at how thin you are now, why don't you eat?" How could it be possible for your health to be better?"

Severus was taken aback, lowered his head slightly, and said with a smile, "I eat less, so others can eat more. It's a good thing." After speaking, he picked up the tableware and walked into the kitchen.

That year, what was damaged was his entire body from the inside to the outside, and what was destroyed was all his health.His current appetite is not much bigger than that of a child. He knows that he needs to strengthen his nutrition, and he knows that the potion can't cure all of it. However, there is only so much that he can eat now. Only, then many.

After eating, Severus sent Linda to the car and turned to leave.Linda was humming and walking home, and accidentally dropped the folder containing the papers and books on the ground.A tall, handsome young man full of gentlemanly demeanor who happened to pass by immediately picked up the folder for her considerately and handed it to her politely.

At night, the two-way mirror lighted up mischievously again, and Voldmort tilted his head with a smile, "Sev, it's time to go to bed. Also, give me a goodnight kiss."

"...well." Although he was a little uncomfortable, he still whispered, "Viddy, good night."

Watching the image in the mirror dissipate, Severus sighed, he could fully see Viddy's strength and his obsession with tying himself to his side.However, Severus didn't want to get too entangled in the reason, he was just enjoying every day of life now, enjoying the peace and happiness of his own soul, and trying his best to give happiness to those who cared about him without destroying his mood.

Because, one day, he will no longer be able to walk with anyone on all the roads in this world.
