You Are My Entire World

Taozi's mood became gloomy and sad just like the sun that was gradually setting in the west.

Walking on the small road in the country, Taozi recalled that every year during the winter and summer vacations, she would come to grandma's house to stay for a while. At that time, grandma would make a lot of delicious food every day. She and Shen Mochen played around outside. During dinner, grandma stood at the entrance of the alley and yelled leisurely: Taozi, come home for dinner—!

She can always see her grandma standing in the sunset, her gray hair imprinted with the evening red glow, which is the warmest moment in her childhood memory.

It's just that at this moment, the familiar alley entrance is empty, and the evening wind blows, blowing the ground cold.

Tao Zi wiped away the tears she fell unconsciously, and quickened her pace towards grandma's old house.

Sobbing could be heard coming from the door in the distance, and the suppressed crying made Taozi's heart ache uncontrollably.

Taozi's father and Taozi's mother held Taozi's hand and pushed open the old door. My aunt was sitting at the Eight Immortals table folding ingots with yellow paper, crying while folding. My uncle stood silently in the lobby without speaking. , but at the moment when he saw Dad Tao come in, he silently handed over a cigarette, and grandpa sat on the chair at the door of the bedroom leaning on crutches, crying.

Dad... Mom Taozi called softly.

Hey... Grandpa Taozi raised his head, looked at Taozi's family who came in through the door, quickly wiped away the tears on his face, stood up on crutches, and said excitedly: Taozi is here? Go and see your grandma, She kept thinking about you before she left...

To be honest, Tao Zi was a little scared at the moment. She knew that her grandma had passed away, but she was afraid that what she would see would be a cold corpse. Emoji corpses...

The moment she entered the bedroom, Taozi lowered her head and lowered her eyes, not daring to look at the bed, but as she slowly moved forward, the brown wooden bed appeared in her field of vision inch by inch, and finally , or muster up the courage to look up...

The grandma lying on the bed seemed to be peacefully asleep. Under the light, her skin still had a faint luster, and there was a faint smile on the corner of her lips.

Taozi burst into tears in an instant, and she stood by the bed, calling softly: Grandma, grandma, wake up... I'm back to see you... Didn't you say that you have prepared a lot of delicious food for me? How could you not wait for me... Dad? Grandma just fell asleep, right? Wake her up...

The teardrops that had been rolling in Taozi's father's eyes finally rolled down quickly. He stretched out his hand, wrapped Taozi's head on his chest, and said in a trembling voice: Taozi, grandma has passed away...

En... Taozi finally stopped suppressing herself and burst into tears.

When the mood gradually stabilized, Taozi's father stood at the gate of the yard, lit a cigarette, and smoked silently.

Tao Zi walked lightly to her father, leaned against the door frame, and did not speak.

Starlight filled the sky in the darkness, and the cigarette in Dad Taozi's hand gave off a little bit of red light, flickering on and off.

Taozi... Taozi's father took a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand, turned his head, looked at Taozi and said in a low voice, Dad won't have a mother anymore...
