Jiu Ge’s Beloved Spirit

Looking at his eyes, they flickered slightly.

His body was cold, and her hands seemed to have lost warmth at that moment when she touched them.

"Are you sure, do you want to go?" She asked very slowly.

【Um. 】

"..." Yun Si shrank her fingertips, lowered her eyes, and was quiet for a moment.

After a long time, she sighed lightly.

He sighed calmly, without any surprise, as if he had thought of this day for a long time.

He is not from this planet, and he only came here to destroy the alien life forms that escaped here.

Now that the mission is accomplished... it's not surprising that he will leave and return to his own place.

I had to leave sooner or later - I just never thought I would leave so soon.

She looked at him again, her eyes calm and gentle, "Well, when do you plan to leave? Now?"

The buzzing sound became even worse, rapid and sharp, like high-frequency radar waves, constantly coming from his body.

He didn't answer, just hugged her tightly. He had no vocal organs and couldn't speak. He could only express his unspeakable emotions in this way.

Eager, anxious, almost out of control.

Yun Si looked at him, curled her lips, hugged him back, and patted him on the back.

"Okay, I know you can't let me go."

What he couldn't express, she said for him.

She was as sensitive as she was, as if she knew what he was thinking, so she comforted him: "It's okay. If you go back, you won't be able to come back again. The worst thing is, when you miss me, come back and see me..."

[What if I can’t come back? 】

[What if I leave and never come back? 】

Yun Si's voice faltered.

After a moment of silence, her tone was relaxed and natural, and she whispered in his ear, "Is it far away? If coming here will make you very hard...then don't force it, as long as you do well, that's fine .”

She was always unwilling to embarrass him.

As long as he lives well and is free, it doesn't matter if she can't see him.

No big deal, see you in the next life.

She stroked his head like a dog, "Don't be sad, okay?"

【I'm not sad. 】

He was calm, but he held her tighter and tighter. Under her comfort, the sharp buzzing sound seemed to become smaller.

Slow, low, and long.

[Sadness is an emotion that only you humans can have. 】

"..." Yun Si couldn't help but laugh, "Really? Not sad?"

【Um. 】

"That's good." Yun Si didn't want the atmosphere to become so sad. He wouldn't be sad, but it would make it easier for him to go.

"When are you leaving? Now?"

Yun Si looked at the thick black fog outside the window. The fog blocked all the scenery outside the window. It was pitch black, like the miasma in the dark forest, eerie and cold.

The fog had risen and there was no rain, which seemed to be a sign urging him to leave.

Yun Si wanted to push him away and look at his face, but he hugged her too hard and wouldn't let go.

"..." Yun Si leaned on his shoulder, raising the corners of her lips slightly, "After I leave, don't forget me, you know?"

"No matter what, we are all best friends. If you forget me, I will be sad."

He didn't answer.

Maybe he listened, or maybe he didn't.

When he let go of her, he grabbed her hand and circled it. A dark, cold bracelet with countless small vines was left on her wrist.

The size is not too big, not too small, just right, it hugs her.

Yun Si: "This is..."

【Gift. 】
