Traveling through Thailand

"Sky, I heard that someone who looks very similar to Yi Yi appeared next to you. Is this true?"

Sky was a bit surprised. He hadn't expected his aunt to hear the news so quickly. Then he remembered that she had someone following her around for her own protection. He had originally thought of discussing this after the birth, but he hadn't expected it to happen sooner. It was a good thing, though; it would let her be happy a few days sooner.

"Yeah, I did. I just had the deluxe seafood noodles he cooked, and it tasted exactly the same as before."

Xiao's mother, who was lying on the hospital bed, held her stomach which was aching from excitement and couldn't help but shed tears.

"He's still alive, really still alive. This damn kid set up a trap that even deceived us relatives. The next time I see him, I will break his legs."

Sky forced a smile and listened to the angry voice of Xiao's father on the other end, and the crying and laughing of Xiao's mother who was crying with joy.

"Aunt, you're about to give birth, don't get too excited. Yi said that he'll come back to see you after you give birth, so you can experience the feeling of double happiness."

Before Xiao's mother could say anything, Xiao's father's voice rang out: "Double happiness? Humph, I won't let him leave this door. I'll prepare a thicker stick. If I don't break his legs, I'll take his last name!!"

"Pfft haha."

"No, ma'am, why are you laughing? Don't you believe me?"

"I believe it, of course I do." Xiao's mother held her stomach and tried to hold back her laughter, but it didn't work very well. After a long time, she could only hold her stomach and burst into laughter.

 …

Sky listened to the noise over there, and then heard a beeping sound. Sky put away his phone and looked up at the white clouds in the sky: The light in my world is back, how wonderful.

Only at this moment did Sky feel alive.

The sky is alive, the clouds are alive, the trees are alive, even the cars and motorcycles coming and going on the road are alive.

After washing the dishes, Xiao Yi wiped the water droplets on his hands and looked at Sky who was enjoying the scenery outside the station. He walked over and stood beside him: "What are you looking at?"

"Look at the sky."

"What's so beautiful about the sky? It's always the same color." Xiao Yi looked up at the sky, not understanding what was so beautiful about it. If he wanted to see something, he should look at the white clouds, which came in all kinds of shapes.

"Yeah, it's the same as always."

Like the feelings I have for you that have arisen without me noticing, they remain as deep and lasting as ever. No matter how the clouds adorn the sky, you are the only one in my heart.

“???” I didn’t understand what he meant.

Sky just smiled at him without explaining.

Xiao Yi saw the attachment in his eyes, which was different from the eyes he saw on the screen. In the previous eyes, there was hatred, pain, the loss of the strength to live, and the desire for revenge that was suppressed in his heart.

Sky now sees tenderness, attachment, gratitude and expectations for the future in his eyes, as well as the deep affection that can no longer be concealed in his eyes when he sees himself.

Xiao Yi looked into those eyes and felt very lucky to have the chance to come back, and very grateful that his system had helped him get this opportunity. Although the price was high, the ending was good.

I reached out and ruffled his thick short hair, apologizing in my heart: Sorry, I almost missed you.

Sky felt the warmth of Yi's hand on his head. He could sense that Yi had changed a lot since he came back. He used to be so insensitive, but now he was touching him countless times. And the look in his eyes, looking at him, had real warmth, no longer that fleeting feeling. Now, he felt like he truly belonged to himself, completely his own.

First, he hugged me back, then they shared a bowl of noodles, then their hands touched my cheeks, and now my hand on my head. Could he think that he loved me too? Otherwise, how could he explain all these actions?

He also thought about how his heart was in the opposite position after waking up this time, and wanted to ask if he had asked someone to save him. But a voice deep in his heart, similar to Yi's, told him: Don't ask, don't think, just assume that this heart was always in that position.

Xiao Yi looked at the person in front of him and became dazed again, so he took his hand and went back into the house.

"Why do you like to daydream so much today?"

Sky came back to his senses and found himself sitting on the sofa, with Yi sitting next to him, his right hand still wrapped in his. Staring at their clasped hands, Sky thought again: He has me in his heart.

Perhaps his inner thoughts were overheard, so when he heard the words that amounted to a confession—he was stunned.

"Hey~Sky."

Sky looked at Xiao Yi, who suddenly became serious, with a puzzled look: "Huh?"

The words lingered on my tongue for a few times before finally reaching his ears: "Let's get married after graduation."

Sky blinked, surprised by this, his brain slowly starting to work. He swallowed and said uncertainly, "Yi, are you serious?"

Xiao Yi, who was so adorable about his reaction, ruffled his hair harder: "Seriously."

"So, will you marry me, Sky?"

Sky was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to react. He just kept staring at the boy in front of him. Xiao saw his dumbfounded look and sighed inwardly. He should have confessed first. It came so suddenly that he was stuck.

"It's still early, let's go pick out rings together." He was still not able to believe what he heard when he heard the topic of marriage. It was not until he sat in the Barbie pink sports car and the sound of the car starting up that he was completely brought back to his senses.

"Where are we going?" Sky clutched his seatbelt tightly. Even now, he couldn't believe Xiao Yi, that clueless guy, had actually proposed. He'd skipped the confession, skipped the engagement, and gone straight to marriage. Wasn't that a huge leap? Or was it just a whim? Sky's mind was racing, his hands clutching the seatbelt tightly.

Knowing Sky's uneasiness at the moment, he picked up his phone, opened the navigation and drove towards the wedding ring shop.

Sky blinked when he heard the voice announcement, and was surprised to find that the destination was the wedding ring shop. He stared at Xiao Yi with wide eyes, swallowed his saliva but could not speak as if he had mute himself.

Really going to buy a ring, this... is it too fast?

Although Sky thought so in his heart, the happiness that surged from deep within made him begin to exude an aura of joy, happiness, shyness, etc.

Driving down the road, Xiao Yi thought about returning to this world, not only as an illegal immigrant, but also as a penniless illegal immigrant. He picked up Sky's phone, exited the map interface, and called the column marked "Auntie." Before the call connected, Xiao Yi spoke directly, "Mom, have the assistant bring Dad's bank card over."

"???" Hearing her son's voice, Xiao's mother was stunned by his next words before she could get excited.

"I'm going to buy a ring."

"???" Is this pacing too fast? Shouldn't they start by sharing their innermost feelings, then recounting how he's still alive and how he hid in the dark, hiding it from everyone? Why does he start by asking Ka to buy a ring?

Xiao Yi, who didn't hear any sound from the other end, suspected that the call was disconnected. He glanced at the phone screen to confirm that the call was still connected: "Mom? Are you listening?"

Xiao's mother was pulled back to her senses by the question. While pushing Xiao's father's hand away from answering the phone, she asked, "Why did you buy the ring?"

"Get married."
