Early in the morning, she woke up on his chest. Looking at his handsome face, his slightly frowned eyebrows, even if he fell asleep, the sadness in his eyes could not be removed, tears flowed from his eyes, and Esther looked at him with severe pain, what the hell was it that made him so helpless?
It had been a week like that.
They spent every night together, but he didn't say a word.
He didn't say anything and she didn't ask. She was just quietly waiting for their parting.
In the evening a week later, she received a call from Hudson, his voice sounded extremely lonely, Elijah and Esther went to pick him up at the airport.
By the time they arrived at the airport the sky had dimmed, Esther got out of the car.
"Babe!" Elijah called out suddenly.
"Huh?" Just after taking one step, she saw him standing next to the car, she paused and looked at him, feeling sad and wanting to cry.
"I'm not going in! You take care!" He said.
This sounded as if he was saying goodbye to her.
She finally couldn't help but choke up and asked, "Are you going to break up with me now?"
He didn't speak, just smiled faintly, "Go in, I'll wait for you outside!"
"Are you sure you won't leave?" She said.
"Yes!" He promised in a deep voice.
"I'll pick him and be back right away!" Esther turned and walked towards the airport but didn't see a light flashing in Elijah's eyes.
Bye! My love!
Before she saw Hudson, she just walked a few meters when she heard a loud bang from behind. The flames rushed into the sky like a spreading fire, and a huge mushroom bloomed in the night sky, just where Elijah was parking, many cars were overturned by the huge explosive force, and then there was another explosion from the fuel tank.
"Elijah..." Esther screamed, startled in horror. "No..."
She staggered towards the explosion.
"Esther!" Hudson had already walked out of the airport, as soon as he saw her, he immediately followed. The explosion was so loud that there was a mess throughout the airport.
"Bang", there was another loud noise, her thin body was slammed to the ground. Esther stared blankly at the flames of the explosion. She had no expression on her pale and terrifying face, just looking like a stone statue at the smoke and fire.
Elijah?!
Closing her eyes in pain, Esther's hands clenched into fists tightly, and her kneeling body was trembling constantly because of the tremendous pain, but there were no tears in her red eyes, Elijah!
She thought about thousands of different ways of saying goodbye, but she didn't expect this to happen!
Elijah!
How could you do this? You wanted to say goodbye to me, but you shouldn't use this way? Did you want me to know that you were dead? But I knew, you were not dead! I knew it all!
"Elijah! Elijah!" She was yelling uncontrollably, she got up abruptly and ran towards the burning car again. She just wanted to see him again, maybe he was nearby.
"Esther, you can't go, it's too dangerous!" Hudson stepped forward and hooked her around the waist, hugging her tightly. "Esther, what's the matter, is Elijah in there?"
Seeing the scene, the entire airport was in a mess, followed by a fire alarm, and the alarm bell in the airport parking lot also started ringing.
"No..." Esther shook her head but didn't know what to say to Hudson.
Elijah, did you think that an explosion could make my heart cold? Let me tell you, no, I knew you just wanted me to think you were dead! But I really, really, really knew you wouldn't die!
Time seemed to stand still!
Elijah!
Her heart burned and stung in an instant, Esther's pale face was staring at the flames dully, he actually chose to part this way.
"Esther, don't do this!" Hudson hugged her heartbroken. "Maybe, maybe Elijah was not there!"
Esther calmed down, looked at the fire from a distance, and suddenly yelled, "Do you think I will think you are dead if you pull this scene? Elijah, I will tell you, I won't believe it! I know you didn't die! I know it all!"
Hudson looked at the fire, such a fire, such an explosion, was it possible for anyone to survive such a fire? But facing Esther who collapsed like this, he didn't say anything.
When she left the United States, Winnie was missing, she said they would never see each other again! With only these words, his heart hurt, but he didn't expect Elijah's death after returning home. What should Esther do?
"Hudson..." Esther choked and buried her head deep into Hudson's chest, seeking strength.

the writing is quite childish, but maybe it's just the translations...
