On the agreed day, it had been raining since the morning, and the rain was getting bigger and bigger, and it became a heavy rain with thunder and lightning in the evening.Ankeou prepared a thick raincoat and boots early, and took a transparent umbrella. Just as he was about to go out, he heard Marius say, "Ankeou, where are you going?"
"Watch Edward's baseball game." An Keou turned his head and looked at the male vampire in a toga robe from ancient Rome.
"Are you going, Marius?"
"No." Marius directly refused, "A friend will come to visit later, can you not go out?"
"What friend?" An Keou frowned, "You didn't tell me that you still have friends."
"Pandora, she is my friend and your loyal servant. She has been protecting you for a long time, you must meet her."
"But I've promised Karen that I'm going to the baseball game." Ankeou fastened the belt of his raincoat, held up his umbrella and stood on the steps, "Marius, if you're not going to tell me everything , don’t think about asking me to listen to you obediently.”
He took two steps forward, then turned around suddenly, showing an inexplicable smile, "At least, since I started dating the Karen family, they have been very honest with me, even the secrets about their identities that they want to keep are all secrets." Told me. Marius, I trust them as I trust myself."
Marius watched Ankeou walk away, his figure was covered by the torrential rain, and his bloodthirsty feeling became more and more intense. Now he strongly regrets turning Ankeou into this state. He thinks that if he does it all over again, he would rather stay Looking at a silent statue, I don't want Ankeou to stay away from him after he comes alive.
The members of the Karen family who were going to play baseball were already waiting there. An Keou looked around, Alice, Jasper, Rosalie, Emmett, and... Carlisle.It was only then that An Keou remembered that he hadn't seen Carlisle for a long time, and this was the first time he had met Carlisle since he came back from Egypt.An Keou couldn't help but look at Carlisle more, the golden eyes of the other party were still golden with tolerance and warmth, for some reason, the moment the two looked at each other, An Keou felt his face was going to burn, even his heart was beating fast a lot.
He thought he might have forgotten to take his sedative.
"Where are Edward and Esme? Aren't they going?" In order to ease the embarrassment and quickly change the subject, An Keou looked at Alice, who was the most talkative.
Alice smiled, "Esme doesn't like this kind of weather, and Edward is enjoying the beautiful world of two people."
Well, love is always intoxicating... What's more, Edward is already a bachelor over 100 years old... Ankeou nodded silently, raised his eyes, and met Carlisle's eyes again, the golden eyes seemed to have swirls, All his attention was sucked in, until Carlisle came to him, he came back to his senses, and looked at the ground a little helplessly.
"How are you doing recently, Ankeou?"
"Well, it's not bad... What about you?" An Keou looked up, "I heard from Rosalie that you brought a lot of blood bags for Marius from the hospital, I'm really sorry for you."
Carlisle was silent for a moment before saying, "No, I'm not for Marius. I'm worried that Marius' breaking the rules will cause dissatisfaction among the Quileutes."
"Oh."
"An Keou, about Marius, do you really know him? Unlike us, he is a vegetarian. To be honest, every time I think of a red-eyed vampire next to you, I am very worried."
Ankeou felt his mouth was dry and his heart was beating happily again. He moved his fingers slightly, rummaged through his pockets for his sedatives, and said, "Marius will not hurt me. Pretty sure."
"I can hear it." Carlisle was a little helpless, "Your tone revealed everything you think of him, and you have great trust."
Is it?An Keou was surprised by Carlisle's evaluation. He didn't feel that he trusted Marius very much. At least, he didn't think that a vampire who concealed the truth he was looking for could gain his complete trust.
"An Ke'ou, your trust in him comes from your instinct. Maybe you don't realize it yourself, but it does exist."
Is that right... Ankeou thought casually while swallowing the medicine, and finally could only nod in agreement.Although he didn't know why, he just knew that Marius would not hurt him.But...why is the other party unwilling to give him the truth?
An Ke'ou was thinking about this, when the four people over there had already started fighting, but Carlisle was still standing beside him.
"Carlyle, aren't you going?"
"No, I prefer to stand and watch." Carlisle explained, and then asked him, "An Keou, have you taken medicine frequently again?"
"It's just some sedative drugs that nourish the nerves, and sometimes I take some sleeping pills at night."
"So did you sleep well?"
"No..." Ankeou thought of his bizarre dreams, "I still dream of a lot...weird things. For example, a woman who can't see her face, I seem to be bitten by her...It's very painful, I felt like I was going to suffocate in the dream, but finally woke up."
"Do you still remember the murals in your room? Your dream and reality overlap to a certain extent. If you have such a dream, why not..." He hesitated, "You might as well ask Marius, he may I can enlighten you."
Ankeou didn't think so.Marius seemed to be determined to hide the past, even if he asked, he couldn't find anything.
It just so happened that there was thunder in the sky at this time, Rosalie hit hard, the ball flew a long way, and the sound of that impact was almost louder than the thunder, An Keou finally understood why they chose to play in this place The weather is playing baseball.It really is different from ordinary people playing.but……
"Carlisle, can I ask you a question?"
"of course can."
"Why did you choose vegetarianism? And, how do you identify with your own identity?" An Keou looked into the distance, "You know, I have always wanted to understand my past and my existence, but until now, I'm still confused, even with Marius, I can't solve my doubts, but it makes me doubt more... Sometimes I can't distinguish between reality and dreams. For example, how do I know? Is my current life not something I imagined? Just like the people in The Matrix, they also live very well in the dream constructed by the subject.”
Carlisle looked at the boy's soft black hair, and tried to stroke it with his fingers, but retracted it.He pursed his lips and said softly, "Because I have a firm goal, that is to live. No matter how I live, I just want to live. So after I was transformed, I accepted this transformation very quickly, and I tried my best to find this transformation. Everything the transformation has brought me, you see, the only downside is that it makes me have an uncontrollable desire to suck blood, but uncontrollable is not uncontrollable, and vegetarianism can ensure that I can better resist blood on me Moreover, after the change of identity, my time has been extended infinitely. A long time ago, I often thought that it would be better if I had more time. Now, I finally have enough time. I can read books and do various things. The things I like, I am never afraid of wasting time." Carlisle said with a smile, "Simply put, I never doubt whether I exist, as long as I am still alive, even if I live in a false world, then What does it matter?"
