It's not too late to meet in the book

The night was as dark as ink, dotted with stars, and the night in the small town was quiet and deep. However, in the home of Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan, there was an indescribable sense of depression and heaviness.

Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao stood outside the door, their faces filled with anxiety and worry. Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan, who had just returned home, did not greet them with joy as usual. Instead, they walked straight into the room and slammed the door shut.

"Kids, what's wrong with you? Open the door!" Wang Jing called out anxiously, her voice trembling. She knew that this mountaineering trip had left an indelible psychological scar on the children.

Su Xiaoxiao also knocked on the door gently and said softly: "Xiaoyue, Yuxuan, we are your mother and friends. Can you open the door and let us in to accompany you?"

However, the room was completely silent, broken only by the occasional sob. Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helplessness and heartache. They knew the children needed some alone time to process their fear and anxiety.

Inside, Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan huddled in bed, their eyes hollow and lost. The curtains were drawn, the room dark and oppressive, as if even the air had frozen. The horrific scene of jumping off the cliff kept replaying in their minds, and every memory pierced their hearts like a knife.

"Xiaoyue, are you okay?" Lin Yuxuan asked softly, his voice trembling. He knew that Lei Xiaoyue was even more fragile and helpless than he was at this moment.

Lei Xiaoyue shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks again: "I... I don't know. Yuxuan, I'm so scared. Why would that person choose to end his life in that way?"

Lin Yuxuan was silent for a moment, unsure how to answer this question. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. "Perhaps... he's faced unbearable difficulties. But we must believe that no matter what difficulties we encounter, as long as we face them bravely, we will definitely find a solution."

Lei Xiaoyue nodded, but her eyes were still filled with fear and anxiety. She hugged her knees tightly, as if only in this way could she find a sense of security. "Yuxuan, do you think...will we also encounter difficulties like that?"

Lin Yuxuan patted Lei Xiaoyue's back gently and said softly, "No, Xiaoyue. We must believe in our courage and strength. Besides, we still have our mother and Aunt Xiaoxiao. They will always be with us and protect us."

Lei Xiaoyue nodded with a slight tremor, but her heart was still filled with uncertainty and fear. She knew that this incident had left a deep scar on her heart, and she needed time to slowly heal this trauma.

Outside the room, Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao waited anxiously. They knocked on the door and called the children's names, but received no response. They knew the children were immersed in fear and anxiety and needed time to recover.

"What should we do? Will something go wrong if they keep silent like this?" Wang Jing said worriedly, her voice full of helplessness and anxiety.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head gently, not knowing what to do. But she understood that they needed to remain calm and patient, giving the children enough space and time to face their fear and anxiety.

"Let's prepare some food they like first. Maybe when they are hungry, they will be willing to open the door and come out." Su Xiaoxiao suggested, with a hint of tenderness and determination in her voice.

Wang Jing nodded, thinking it was a good suggestion. So, the two of them turned and walked into the kitchen, getting busy. They hoped to use delicious food to distract the children, to help them forget their fear and anxiety for a while.

However, Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan in the room remained lost in their own world. They curled up in bed, hugging themselves tightly, as if only in this way could they find a glimmer of warmth and comfort. Their eyes were empty and confused, and the horrific scene kept replaying in their minds.

"Yuxuan... I'm really scared." Lei Xiaoyue's voice rang out again, a hint of tears in her voice. She knew that this fear had taken deep root in her heart and was difficult to erase.

Lin Yuxuan held Lei Xiaoyue's hand tightly and said gently, "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyue. We will always be together. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we will face them hand in hand."

Lei Xiaoyue nodded, tears streaming down her cheeks again. But she also understood that she needed to be strong and brave at this moment. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. "Well...we will face everything together."

Outside the room, Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao were still waiting anxiously. They would occasionally peer through the crack in the door to see what was happening to the children, but they received no response.
