Chapter 24 - Separate
The dusk came, and the moon was rising over the west mountain. It gradually darkened.
She was waiting all day, but Li Jungkook didn't show up.
Didn't he say that he was going to take her to fly a kite? She sat on the stone steps in front of the house and played with her kite. She held the goose kite in her hand for the entire day. She looked at it from left to right. "Why isn't brother Xiao Jungkook here yet?"
Madam Dara came out of the living room, afraid that she would catch cold, so she had the maidservant dress her a cape. "Perhaps there's something urgent at home. Little lamb, don't wait. Come with me to my room."
After seeing her daughter wait for the whole day, how could Madam Dara not feel sorrry for her?
But this child had a stubborn temper. No matter how she tried to persuade her, it was useless. She held to wait for Li Jungkooi to come. In the afternoon, Madam Dara sent someone to ask the Li family to see if anything had happened. However, the gate was tightly shut, and no one showed up even after knocking for an hour. The servant came back to report that there was no body in the house. Dara explained this to Xie Lisa, who did not believe it, "He already told me he would come to pick me up. He will definitely come!"
She insisted to wait.
Madam Dara let out a long sigh. There was no one in the house, perhaps the entire Li family had gone out. How could Li Jungkook come to pick her up? How could this child be so stubborn?
After dinner, Xie Lisa was really tired and finally realized that Li Jungkook won't show up.
She was a little dejected. Looking at the dark night sky, she threw the kite to the ground and stomped on it angrily, "Brother Xiao Jungkook is a big liar!"
After she vented her anger , she looked down at the crumpled kite and sniffed at her nose in the dim light of the porch light.
When she thought that daddy had bought it for her, she silently picked up the kite from the ground, stroked it with her meaty hands, smoothed it out, and hugged it to her chest.
Madam Dara stood at the end of the corridor and softly cried out, "Little lamb, follow me back to the house."
She called out to her mother in a soft voice and quickly threw herself into Madam Dara's embrace, rubbing her head against her stomach. "Brother Xiao Jungkook lied to me ..."
Madam Dara rubbed her head, comforting her, "He might have something to do ..."
She moaned, still unwilling, "But he told me ...he'll be here to pick me up today ...."
Madam Dara could only reply, "Then next time you meet, ask him why he didn't come today." He'll apologize to you. "
Brother Xiao Jungkook wouldn't apologize. He had never apologized to her before.
"No, I don't want to see him next time."
Finally, she added, "I won't play with a big liar."
Dara felt that it was funny. A child always likes to say angry things, but what could be taken seriously? Perhaps after a few days, the two of them would get to play together again.
During the few days when Xie Lisa and Li Jungkook had been lying on the wall talking, Dara had heard from the servants. Just a moment ago, she had said that she hated him, but it was not long before they reconciled. As long as they did not hurt themselves, Madam Dara would just turn a blind eye to them and let them go.
But this time, no one thought that what she said came to truth.
After three to five days, the Li's house still did not have any movements.
