Collapse Simulator, why are we drifting apart?

"We are the Star Core Hunters, and we are here to invite you to join us! Meow!"

On the balcony, a black cat with dark green eyes stretched out lazily and said to Kafka in the house.

"Don't go."

Kafka refused directly without asking who the other party was or why he was looking for her.

"It's okay, I just want to inform you. You will definitely join soon. I will come to see you then, meow!"

The black cat licked its paws and spoke lazily, then jumped off the balcony and disappeared into the crowd.

Kafka watched it leave, with no intention of chasing it. She just calmly inserted the syringe in her hand into her arm.

She clenched her fist and closed her eyes to feel it carefully.

"Still not working?" Although there was still no emotion in her eyes, her distress was evident.

"Mother?"

"Yeah, it's okay." Kafka stood up, "Let's go, it's getting late, we should go to the store."

"Ah."

A clothing store, which she opened with the remaining money, instead of opening a flower shop.

The money that Fan Mu left her was not a small amount, at least enough to ensure that she would have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life, but she had spent all these years collecting so-called "healing items" and now there was very little left.

There was laughter and joy in the store, because the store mainly sells children's clothes and coats, most of the people who come here to buy clothes are families of three.

After seeing off another group of guests, Xing looked at the backs of the family of three as they left and pulled her sleeve.

"Mom, does Daddy not want us anymore?" The voice was low and filled with deep disappointment.

"No, Big Brother won't leave. We just need to wait for him here. Big Brother will definitely come back."

Kafka gently stroked her forehead and soothed her softly.

She said this, but the trust in her heart was broken.

Does the elder brother really not want her anymore?

No, as long as she finds the emotion, big brother will definitely come back.

Both of them fell silent.

night.

After telling the old story, Kafka looked at the sleeping Xing, skillfully covered her with a blanket, turned off the light in the room, and heard a low moan as she left.

"Daddy."

Turning off all the lights in the house, Kafka sat alone by the window, just like Fanmu did before.

The lights were on, and the dim light shone on her face.

Six years have passed, and her longing for Fan Mu has not diminished in the slightest. Instead, it has become more and more intense as time goes by. It is like a thorn in her heart, making her wound never heal until it rots and deteriorates.

The memories of their past together kept playing in front of her eyes like a kaleidoscope of memories. What started out as bedtime stories, eating together, buying new clothes, gradually turned into nagging in her ears.

"Kafka, get up, the sun is shining on your butt!"

"Kafka, come and try on this dress!"

"Kafka, do you want a bedtime story?"

"Kafka, ..."

"…………"

A strong light shone through the window in front of her eyes. The dazzling light forced her to close her eyes. The light gradually dissipated. She rubbed her eyes and everything in front of her was blurred.

In a trance, she seemed to see Fan Mu's busy back in the living room, and the sound of cooking in the kitchen echoed in her ears.

"big..."

Her heart beat a few more times, and her vision returned to normal. The room was empty and dim, and the sound of car horns was heard in her ears. She swallowed the words she wanted to say back into her mouth, and her eyes were filled with sadness.

She has her own career, her own house, and her own relatives. Logically speaking, even if a relative passed away, six years have passed and time should have healed the scars in her heart.

But no, Fan Mu’s existence was like a ray of light in the darkness to her.

Kafka knew clearly that it was Fan Mu who changed her future. She clearly remembered that rainy day when it was Fan Mu who brought the first ray of light into the dark and claustrophobic trash can.

On the large and warm bed, Fan Mu told her that he loved her for the first time in his life. At that moment, her day dawned.

If her heart is compared to a dark gray, then Fan Mu is the moon and stars in the sky, and the rising sun.

If a loved one leaves, people will feel heart-wrenching pain at first, but after one or two years, it will gradually become a regret in life. People will bury these regrets and love deep in their hearts, waiting for the next lover to come.

But family love is different. When a loved one leaves, people don’t feel sad at first. They still talk and laugh, as if it is not an important matter and as if their loved ones are still around.

It's like harvesting wheat, you are at home and your loved ones are in the fields, but when you rush to the fields, they have returned home.

He is right beside you, but you can never catch up with him and can only see his back as he leaves.

As time goes by, their figures will gradually appear in your life, visible but intangible. Even if you have completely forgotten them, they will appear in front of you again when you eat a bowl of delicious rice, drink a glass of rusty water, or hear a familiar conversation.

He will always be with you and influence you forever.

It was dawn, the sun rose, and the warm morning sun covered the whole world in an instant.

The days flow like a river.

An oral solution bottle fell to the ground.

I spent the last bit of money I had, but it still didn't work.

She had no chance. The money earned from the clothing store was enough for their daily expenses, but it definitely couldn't afford the expensive "medicine".

In the evening, on the back mountain, the two were lying on the grass looking at the moon in the sky. Suddenly, a star quickly grew larger in front of their eyes and fell towards them like a meteor.

The two sat up, and the 'meteor' fell in a city not far away. It was a spaceship. There was no loss on their faces, they just lay back on the ground.

As the saying goes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. This is the dozensth spaceship they have seen this year. The initial expectations for something flying in the starry sky are no longer there.

In April, summer begins, peach blossoms bloom, willows turn green, and swallows begin to fly back in groups.

On an ordinary day, Kafka was making breakfast when she suddenly felt her heart become extremely relaxed, as if the shackles that had been wrapped around her body had disappeared.

Still waiting for big brother?

This thought suddenly popped into her mind.

"No...wait!" she murmured.

Why is she so persistent in finding love? Why does she have to wait for her big brother here? Wouldn’t it be better to look for her big brother in the starry sky?

She clearly remembered what Fan Mu had said to her six years ago.

If big brother doesn't come back, then she will travel all over the stars and big brother will definitely appear in front of her.
