Chapter 702 This Is Not Jealousy
Chapter 702 This Is Not Jealousy
This winter is extremely cold, so cold that it is beyond words. I don’t know why, but two extremely cold winters have come in a row.
The children had no mood to play and stayed quietly beside the stove. It really looked a bit like the fireplace house I had seen in stories before...
If the weather is too cold, the children will not go out. The wind and snow will make everyone uncomfortable and easy to get sick, right? Although occasionally being exposed to the snow is good for the body, no one can stand staying like this all the time.
"…The weather is so cold that everyone can only attend story time these days and cannot participate in other activities…"
"Who says it's not? Oh, really, it's getting too cold in the fall. Well, this winter is even colder than last year!"
"Eldana, you're wearing so little, aren't you cold?"
Eldana, also known as Brunolinxi, who was called, shook her head. Her ability to sense cold and heat is not as strong as that of humans.
“It’s not too cold for me.”
"It's great that I'm not afraid of the cold. Now I can't wait to curl up in the quilt every day. But if I keep curling up in the quilt, my sister will laugh at me, saying I look like a caterpillar!"
"Everyone becomes more bored when the weather gets cold! When will this cold winter be over?"
"…Maybe it will take almost 90 days…"
This cold winter is mainly the result of the intersection of cold and warm air currents. In 90 days, it will be spring, and by that time, these two winds will have almost ended, so we can welcome a very warm spring.
"Bunolinxi always calculates everything very accurately, it's amazing!"
"As expected of Sister Nuolinxi's child!"
"..." Bruno Linxi seemed to have a feeling for the first time that he didn't want to be praised by others. He thought that it was because his mother's child was so great. After realizing this, he even froze in place, not knowing why such thoughts appeared in his mind.
My mother is so outstanding, and I am the product created by my mother. Everything is given by my mother. Why would I be unhappy when I am praised as my mother's child?
He didn't understand, and even sat there silently, not taking a moment to respond.
"Eldana, you look terrible, are you feeling unwell?"
"… Yeah… I feel fine, maybe just a little heartbroken."
There is a little pain in my heart, it's not strong, but it can't be ignored.
"! I'll go call Sister Annuoya!"
When the doctor came to check and found nothing, he went to inform Nolinxi.
"Bunolinsi has a congenital disease that others can't see. It's a genetic problem. It's okay. Let me do it."
When there were only two people left in the empty room, he stared at them with great concern.
"..."
"What happened? Can you tell me? I hope I can help you relieve some of your pain. Although it may not be useful, is it okay for me to do this?"
I want to know why my child is unhappy, I want to know why my child is in pain. My emotions seem to be floating in the deep ocean, and I can't find a way out. I just hope my child can be happy and that's all.
"...Mom, I'm a bad boy. I seem to be jealous."
Sit quietly beside the child, try your best to make physical contact so that the other person can feel at ease, and listen to the words slowly coming out of his mouth. So that's how it is.
"Because your friends praised you as my child, you felt unhappy, right?"
"…I'm jealous of Mom, right?"
Am I jealous of my wonderful mother who has everything in order and can easily handle all the hardships and pains? I am so jealous that I feel sick...
"This is not jealousy, kid. I once had similar emotions. It is normal for you to be unhappy because they try to deny your efforts through your family."
"Ok?"
“When a smart child appears in this world, if his parents are also very smart, then everyone will expect the child to be as smart as his parents or even smarter. If the child cannot reach the same level as his parents, then he will live in ridicule from then on. However, they forget that the child is already very smart, and is smarter than many ordinary people.”
"why is that?"
"It's like if you eat a very sweet sunset fruit first, and then eat a sunset fruit that has no sweetness at all, how would you feel?"
"Hmm... I will decide to have another one, because the sugar content does not meet the limit, so it does not count as exceeding the sugar intake limit."
"What would you think if they were all from the same tree?"
"Why isn't it as sweet as the previous one?"
"Well, because of their status, people have higher expectations for the offspring of smart people, which means they have to bear pressure from birth. Moreover, other people cannot see their success and pressure. If they are really better than their parents, they will only say, "You are worthy of being someone's child."
"…So this is why I'm sad?"
"Because I know you work hard, you study all the time, you are smarter than me, but they don't know that they attribute your intelligence to me, so you feel unhappy, it's because you feel that part of you has been taken away."
When I was a child, Norinxi had a similar experience. People who were not very talented tried their best to work hard, achieved some achievements, and were praised by others. They were worthy of being other people's children.
That compliment was like a harsh noise, making it hard for people to raise their heads or breathe.
Pain follows us everywhere. Why do we have to add so-called comparison even to praise? The already rare praise makes us even more painful and speechless.
"Well... this is normal. I'm not a bad kid, right?"
"My child, you have never been a bad child. You are smart, gentle, brave, and friendly to everyone. I will always love you."
He is a good child, better than I imagined, more gentle, and a child who makes everything shine. Is it because of blood? It is indeed separated from me, but it is more because of love.
My child, you will never know that your body was prepared for me, because I have given up this painful plan. You just need to be like an ordinary child, and I will spend my whole life with you. The curse of immortality will turn me from a normal person into a madman. But it doesn't matter...
I will watch you grow up.
