Once

Sorry, I'm being rude, but I really can't remember. "

"It's not your fault, many people don't know me." Yuuri shrugged not surprised.

Soon the hot dishes were served, and Victor introduced several dishes to them, and Yuuri and Angel nodded in ignorance, with a high degree of consistency in their movements.

Yuuri's thought is: I don't know what it is, but it's all stuffed into his mouth anyway.

Angel is even simpler, there are only good and bad food.

The father and daughter are quite silent, only Victor chats with them from time to time, probably because he thinks Yuuri is more boring, and then he talks to Angel and asks some simple questions, such as how old are you and what grade are you in? , What are your hobbies, and so on.

When the meal was almost finished, a waiter came over with a camera and said, "Hello, gentlemen and this lovely lady, tonight is the 20th anniversary of our restaurant, so I want to take pictures of some customers , and then post it on the display wall on the left hand side of the entrance, is that okay?"

Victor said it was okay, and translated it to Yuuri and Angel. They didn't have any objections, so they obediently stood by the table according to the waiter's instructions.Victor walked up to Yuuri and stood beside him, and Angel was picked up by him because he was too short.The little girl sat on one of Victor's arms, one hand subconsciously wrapped around Victor's neck, and the other held her doll.

Angel was neatly dressed, with a soft body and a milky fragrance, quite pleasing.Victor's heart suddenly felt strange, he seemed to be dependent on this little guy, but it didn't feel bad.

He does not claim to be a caring person, on the contrary, he is basically indifferent to many things except skating.

Family, this word is a bit of a luxury for him, it's strange that he doesn't desire it at all.

Well, after entering his 30s, his mentality has changed a bit. He retired 5 years ago and came back after 3 years, but now he has encountered a bottleneck again.

Probably because he lacks the power to become stronger again.

But the person next to him named Shengsheng is different. He may not have been particularly successful in his career, but he obviously has a happy family. Although ordinary, he is happy and rich.

He glanced at the petite and well-behaved Angel, and then his eyes fell on the Japanese youth next to Angel.The young man was slightly shorter than him, but he stood upright. When he saw Victor, he suddenly smiled. The orange light fell on his side face, making his smile soft, friendly, warm and moving. It seems that the plain facial features add a little bright color.

It's not that some flowers are not beautiful, they just don't bloom in the right place.But it is like this, stubbornly and quietly blooming alone.

Victor blinked, his heart skipped a beat, and then he quickly looked away.

The waiter was yelling "one, two, three", and then took two consecutive photos, one was posted in the restaurant for display, and the other was given to the family.Yuuri took the photo and handed it to Victor: "This one, you can keep it as a souvenir."

"Aren't you going to keep it?"

"I... I'm afraid I'll lose my trip." Yuuri actually just made up an excuse, and the photo was given to Victor on purpose, and he had his own selfish intentions.

Don't remember, don't know...it doesn't matter.Photos prove the traces of existence.

After dinner, Victor drove the two of them back to the hotel, and when they stopped in front of the door, Angel was already asleep, lying in Yuuri's arms, drooling.

Victor smiled when he saw it.

"Thank you today, and dinner is delicious." The young man loosened his seat belt.

"You're welcome, I also had a good night." Victor said again: "Leave a contact information, I'm free these few days, do you want me to take you around?" He didn't realize until he said that He seemed to be particularly enthusiastic today, more enthusiastic than he expected.

But the restrained young man refused again, saying that he would not bother him.

"That's good, but you have to leave a phone number, and you can contact me in case of emergency."

It made sense for Yuuri to think about it, so he exchanged cell phone numbers with Victor.

"Then I'll go first, good night."

Yuuri closed the door, Viktor leaned down slightly through the rolled down car window, and said, "Good night."

Then he saw that Mr. Katsuki hesitated for a while, turned around with a slightly red face, and walked into the hotel quickly.

...It's really interesting, Victor thought as he looked at his back.

He returned to his apartment after seeing off Yuuri and his daughter.

As soon as he turned on the light, the room was empty and cold, and then he turned on the heat, and the machine rumbled.

He casually threw keys, wallets and the like on the small coffee table, sat down on the sofa, and rested his head on the edge of the sofa back.

For him, family is a word to describe blood relationship, but in fact it is divided into relatives and estrangements. The real family has probably always been only Makachin.However, Makaqin also left him more than two years ago, and no one would pounce on him enthusiastically and lick his hand after he opened the door and entered the house, and there would no longer be a warm body for him to hug. Keep warm.

This winter was quite cold, and Victor suddenly thought of the little girl named Angel, who was fragrant and soft.Of course he was not a perverted pedophile, and he had never liked children very much, but Angel was different. He felt at first sight that there seemed to be a subtle connection between them, and he couldn't figure out what it was.

Then he thought about it and took out the photo from his pocket. It was useless, and he might have lost it when he turned around. But in the photo, he, Shengsheng and Angel were all smiling brightly and kindly.

And if you take a closer look, Angel's smile really resembles his, even the upward curve of the corners of her mouth is almost exactly the same, except that Angel's face is rounder.

Well, are there two people in this world who are so alike?Victor just thought it was funny at first, but he couldn't laugh anymore when he smiled.

It's so similar, it's almost like a horror story.

Then just when he was about to fall into deep thought, the phone rang, and it was Yuri Prisetti who came to bother him at night.He could have hung up, but he happened to have something to ask Yuri, so he picked it up.

Yuri chatted with him about the choreography of next season, and asked him when he would be free. Victor said let me see the arrangement, and then we can talk about it. Yuri then complained that you are always fooling me.

Then Victor said, "You know what, I ran into someone when I was bored and went into a skating rink today."

Yuri said, "I don't know."

Victor ignored him and continued: "His name is Katsuo, he is Japanese, he may have been a player before, do you have any impression?"

"How can I remember that there are so many Japanese players, and I only started to compete in the senior group 5 years ago."

"He should have been there five years ago, right? He was quite young." Victor thought again, but Katsuki had a baby face and couldn't tell his real age. He might have miscalculated that the other party's age was not certain.

"Ah, what's your name, Katsuki... Hey, Katsuki Yuuri?!" Yuri suddenly said "Ah", "Is it the one who looks particularly cowardly with glasses on!"

Victor: "..."

"He wears glasses, looks ordinary, and is estimated to be a little over 1.7 meters tall."

"If it's that guy, I'd know it. Who told him to have the same name as me? I told him that the game doesn't need two Yuri, and then he really retired!"

"Do you know why he retired?"

"Haha, who knows, maybe he flinched because he was scared. There are people like this." Yuri said again: "Why did you mention him all of a sudden? What if you meet him."

"No, I think he looks familiar today, but I don't remember who it is. I have a little impression when you say that."

"His guy is also very funny. A few days ago, I looked through the photo album and found a photo of him fighting and dancing at the banquet..." Yuri raised his forehead, "You know, it's the guy who pole danced with Chris .”

"Ah! It's him...!"

"Yes, that bastard dared to ask you to be his coach when he was drunk. It's ridiculous."

Victor only felt that some broken memories were gradually pieced together in his mind into a large piece of fragments. Although there were missing parts, the general context suddenly became clear.

"Then, what then?"

"Then? Who knows? Then it wasn't you and him who didn't know where to go? Or he dragged you, I don't know, anyway, I went home and went to bed."

"..." Victor's eyes fell on the photo next to him again.

Angel is about 5 years old, and it has been more than 5 years since Yuuri retired... Well, it can't be such a coincidence, can it?Victor stroked his lower lip with his thumb, and then bit his round thumbnail.

If you think of Yuuri's subtle attitude towards him, then something must have happened between them.Has he slept with each other?Sorry, Victor himself drank a lot of wine that night, and when he woke up, he really couldn't remember who he spent the spring evening with.

Giving someone up but forgetting, everyone will feel angry and depressed.

But Angel's appearance... what's going on! ?

At this time, Yuri over there said: "Hey, Victor, are you listening to me?"

"Yuri, do you think it's possible for a man to get pregnant?"

"...You have Alzheimer's onset early, right?!"

"Since I'm in my thirties
