[ONE PIECE] The daily life of Shura field in four eyes

Chapter64

Pain x temperature x happiness

——You are the breeze and the sunset

It's heartbeat that won't stop, it's irreplaceable

--------------------------------

As time entered into the night, Sakaski sat at the coffee table under the tree, wearing a large coat.

He did not light a lamp, letting the bright moon hanging in the sky illuminate the large courtyard.

Those eyes were looking somewhere, maybe they were looking at the sky, maybe they were looking at the lonely swing.

Or maybe he was staring straight in the direction Seleustin left, hoping to see those blue eyes that were still shining at night.

Just now, Kuzan came alone to tell him that Seleustine was picked up by Porusalino and I'm afraid he won't be back tonight.

Sakaski was not as wary of Porusalino as Kuzan. He knew that man would not hurt her, but this night without her, it became difficult to sleep after all.

As soon as he closed his eyes, he could see those images that seemed to pinch his heart and make him unable to breathe.

Blonde hair stained red by blood, burning with the love of life, a kiss that smells of blood mixed with tears.

It broke our hearts

After he got through this dark night, the first ray of sunshine in the morning signaled the beginning of a new day.

She will follow Reiju and board the ship back to Germa

By then, Seleustin will be far away from him again

Regarding her affairs, Sakaski has always wanted to be foolproof, but there is always a gap between ideal and reality.

For Seleucid, he was powerless to save and unable to protect, and that has been the case from then until now.

So what if he lives his life again, so what if he meets her again, it’s just another loss that cannot be stopped.

Just like those memories buried deep in his mind that Sakaski never wants to touch again, they are all in vain and unbearable pain.

He sat there silently, his tall figure seemed to blend into the silent night, with a bit of chilling coldness.

Tonight seems a little too long, as if there will never be another sunrise

Without her, this would be eternal night

A soft sound came from the direction of the door. The familiar golden hair was gently raised with the cool evening breeze, and the man was leaning on the wall, his steps staggering a little.

She walked in the dark, focusing on the road under her feet, and did not notice the figure sitting under the tree, which she missed so much.

The injured left leg couldn't use any strength. She was walking forward with some difficulty, but she tripped over something and was about to fall forward.

Selustine closed her eyes nervously, and the next second, she fell into a slightly cool embrace.

The person slowly wrapped his arms around her waist and nestled her in his arms. The night wind that had always been warm in the past had lost its scorching temperature after being blown by the night wind for too long.

"Sakaski?"

Seleustin did not raise her head, but this embrace was so familiar, with a sense of security that no one could give her, and she understood who was holding her at the moment.

“…it’s too late to come back”

He seemed to pause for a while, and when he spoke again, his still low voice was filled with overly complicated emotions that Seleustin had never heard before.

"Well...it's my fault for making you worry."

Worry, he is not only worried about her late return, what Sakaski really cares about is when the sun rises today, her back is destined to turn around and leave.

Seleustin did not explain why he came back so late, and Sakaski did not ask.

He could probably guess that it was just that Porusalino failed to keep her and she begged her to be sent back to him.

Sakaski felt that the petite body in his arms seemed to be shaking slightly. Indeed, her clothes were too thin at such a night. No longer thinking about it, he picked her up and strode into the inner room.

He might finally be able to sleep peacefully, because Seleustin is in his arms and won't go anywhere.

Before dawn comes, this long night is no longer cold, but carries her own warmth

Warmed the whole heart in an instant

Sakaski placed Seleustin on her soft mattress and looked down at her

The little blond girl on the bed sniffed and rolled herself into the warm quilt contentedly. As expected, she was still not used to the cold outside just now.

She seemed a little sleepy, and it was time for him to leave, but he couldn't pick up the pace.

A delicate palm took his big hand and pulled him to sit beside the bed.

Selustine buried the lower half of her face in the quilt, revealing only a pair of sleepy blue eyes with mist, and a few messy hair scattered on her smooth forehead, making her look well-behaved and lazy.

"I just...actually slept, but ended up having nightmares."

Her soft voice sounded, but it was inexplicably a little tired.

"It must be because I feel unsafe without you around, Sakaski, that's why I had such a dream..."

As she spoke, she yawned and did not notice Sakaski's somewhat stiff back.

"Yes, what kind of dream"

He asked, his tone was low and he didn't know how to feel happy or angry.

"I can't remember...but in the end..."

What's the last thing?

Her voice was soft and waxy, and gradually weakened. Sakaski leaned forward slightly to listen to the last few syllables.

His ear was close to Seleustine's lips, and the heat from her breath spread on his earlobe, causing a shiver that spread throughout his body for no reason.

"Sakaski...came to take me home."

A few simple words, but the tall man was stunned here.

His face was no longer as calm as usual, but was filled with thick sadness that seemed to flow all the way into his heart.

Sakaski slowly straightened up and looked at Seleustin, who was about to fall asleep holding his palms.

He stretched out his other hand, and his loving fingertips swept across her eyes and the corners of her lips.

Yes, he didn't care about reporting to the Warring States Period, and he didn't care about being calm and steady as he always insisted. There was only one thought left in his mind.

He was going to take his Celestine home

Selustine felt Sakaski's fingertips gently caressing her cheek, and smiled reassuringly. She silently moved in. This habitual movement made Sakaski feel excited again. absentminded

This is a little arrogant and willful, asking Sakaski to coax her to sleep.

Whenever she had nightmares, she would make a place for him on the bed like this, and then snuggle into his arms with peace of mind, letting his big hands comb her long golden hair and pat her comfortingly. back

That is the exclusive privilege of Seleucid

By the time Sakaski reacted, he had already leaned on the bed at some point, with the little girl beside him nestled in his arms, and her white side face looked peaceful and tranquil.

The blond hair lay flat on the dark sheets behind him, soft, brushing against his fingertips

The nerves that had not relaxed for a long time were no longer tense. In this warm environment, Sakaski also gradually began to feel tired.

He turned off the light and took her into his arms with great skill. He felt her soft side face pressed against his chest. The two of them hugged each other intimately in the darkness, but they felt the happiness and joy they had never experienced before. satisfy

His Seleustin, just as he remembered, was by his side obediently

No tears and blood, no pain and separation

This is the life they have always had

Plain and peaceful, but with such dreamy happiness

Such a warmth that makes you almost cry

The morning in Malinfando has a faint fragrance of grass and trees, just like what Seleustin once smelled in Kuzan's arms

The gentle wind passed through the window and blew through her golden eyelashes. Her misty eyes were turned into clear sapphires by the sunlight. Her slightly parted lips brought out the girl's naivety and laziness, which made people unable to bear it. I almost want to move forward and get a gentle kiss

The man loved her, but he resisted the beautiful scenery in front of him and just extended his thumb

Restrainedly, he stroked her brows

"morning…"

Her lazy voice carried her usual softness, which made Sakaski couldn't help but soften the curves of his lips.

"Well, early"

The tall man sat on the edge of the bed, his gentle hands caressing the petite girl, his soft side face

The butterfly stopped flapping its wings, the idle clouds slowly passed by the blue sky, and the wind gently blew through the lush branches of the trees.

Time has stopped for this moment, slower, slower

This was the vision he had been looking forward to, just like a dream

Sakaski knew that Reiju was waiting outside the door, waiting to take her sister away.

It is imperative to let Selustine return to Germa, no matter how many dangers there are, no matter how much he doesn't want her to leave his side at the moment.

But for her life, this is the only choice

He let her go, but he didn't know when he would see her again next time.

“I will be back”

Seleustin sat up at some point and slowly snuggled into his arms. Sakaski couldn't see her expression, but could hear the tenderness and seriousness in her voice.

She knows his worry, his worry, his reluctance

Seleustin will always understand Sakaski's truly surging emotions hidden under the calm surface.

So he never said much, but she could understand everything.

She understands him so well, as if understanding Sakaski is as natural as eating and sleeping.

So at the moment when they were about to part ways, she made a vow for him

"Definitely, I will come back."

Sakaski's big hands were filled with hot body temperature, and he held her in his arms, keeping his voice low and not saying a word.

Seleustin has always kept her promises. From the past to the future, she will treat the oaths made at this moment in the same way.

So he never doubted her words. Since she said she would come back, she would definitely

He was no longer worried, and he had never felt so at ease before.

When we see each other again, she will definitely come back to him in good health, and then stay with him to spend the time like now.

Warm and happy years
