"Oh. That is indeed a coincidence." Doris did not doubt it as Sky did not have any reason to look for them. "Are you alone? Isn't my aunt with you?"
Doris didn't know much story about them. She just felt that her aunt and uncle didn't like her Mom.
"No." Sky shook his head. In front of everyone, he could not say that he and Sophie had already divorced.
"My mother and I are here to find Grandpa. We have been here for more than a week." Although Doris didn't understand some of the things that happened between adults, she thought that Sky wasn't really a bad guy.
But Sophie... she thought she was a bad person. That was her intuition.
"Are you leaving?" Doris saw that he was carrying a backpack and a bag.
"Yes. I've been out for several days. I still have work to do, so I have to go back." Sky looked at Doris and thought that his life was saved by the umbilical cord blood of the little girl. He felt that this fate narrowed the distance between them and made him feel that she was very kind.
"Are you not going to see my mother before you leave?" Doris asked him.
"I... No." Sky put down the black bag in his hand and squatted down in front of Doris. "May I hug you?"
"Huh?" Doris felt surprised for a moment.
"Just want to hug you." said Sky.
"Yes. Go ahead, then." Doris agreed and took a step forward.
Sky reached out his long arm and held Doris in his arms. He felt the feeling of holding this small girl in his arms.
The empty cold embrace was filled with this warm little Doris. There was a very fulfilling feeling, which made him very happy.
That was how it felt when you had a child. It was sweet and warm.
Doris did not move and allowed Sky to hold her until he released her.
He looked at Doris with a gentle, indulgent look. He caressed her hair gently, and wore a warm smile.
"Thank you." Sky looked at her big black and white eyes and thanked her in his heart for saving him.
"You're welcome." Doris shook her head. "I don't like my aunt as I don't think she's a good person, but I don't think my uncle is like her."
"In fact, I am not a good person, because I once hurt a person, very deeply." Sky sounded guilty, and he looked regretful.
"Now that you know you're wrong, go and make up for it. Ask for forgiveness." Doris suggested.
"Will she forgive me?" Sky looked at Doris's innocent face.
"My mother says that as long as you sincerely apologize, the other person will feel your sincerity and forgive you. Even if you can't be forgiven, you've done your best and didn't feel regret." Doris tried to cheer Sky up like a little adult.
Sky laughed as he listened to her milky voice cheering him up. Child's world was the purest and simplest, but he was no longer young, and had become sophisticated and hypocritical.
How he wished time could go back to the past, back to the days when he felt carefree and could hold Rose's hand to do everything they wanted.
But time never ticked back. It was fair to anyone, but cruel.
Rose was shocked She did not expect to bump into Sky here.
Sky originally wanted to see Rose, but he did not dare to see her, so he hid from her. Unexpectedly, he met her here.
They met each other by chance, and other of them were in astonishment.
They stood in the field path, a few meters away from each other. They just looked at each other silently.
When Doris saw Rose, she let go of her hand and ran up to Rose, "Mom."
"Why are you running around. You worried me." Rose wrapped her arms around her daughter's shoulders.
"I am with Ms. Flower. You can rest assured." Doris got along well with the villagers during her stay here. She was very popular and everyone liked her.
Rose touched her head. "You should tell Mom before you went anywhere."
"I see." Doris looked at Sky, "Mom, I met Uncle here, so he is a single urban man. Arya wanted to marry her daughter Ciara to Uncle."
"Children shouldn't mind these businesses. Besides, it is his freedom." Rose whispered to Doris, then looked at Sky, "Why are you here? You are for relaxing or for travel?"
Rose was very generous and took the initiative to say hello to Sky.
"I..." Sky was still hesitating about whether to say what was in his heart. He looked at the light smile on Rose's face. There were mixed feelings in her eyes, but it seemed that she had let go of the past and move on. This was what a mature person should like. "I am looking for you, Rose."
