Chapter 415 Come to Terms With the Past

"Olive, you said you had never been a part of my previous life, but that's not entirely accurate. In fact, during the time when you hadn't reappeared in front of me, I had always regarded the words you had said as my emotional support."

Aaron took my hand and climbed up to the rooftop of the attic. We sat cuddled together on the bench, and the memories of the past flooded into my mind like a tide

Actually, I had already remembered the past when Colston told me about Aaron's obsession with Lukita. But it was the first time I came back here with Aaron, which made me recall

that period of the past more vividly

Back then, I was still young, probably in the third grade of elementary school. Without my parents around to take care of me, the empty house after school made me feel lonely and scared. So, I rarely stayed at home. Most of the time, I would go out to pass the long afternoon

Fortunately, the security on the streets of New York was still decent at that time, and my so-called parents never withheld money. So I always carried more pocket money than my peers and wandered from candy stores to bookstores

But there were always boring times like this. As I grew older, I no longer satisfied myself with sharing candies with the kids on the street, but instead turned my attention to the more interesting high school campus

The middle school's dismissal time was a little later. The older brothers and sisters there were all very nice to me. They would paint posters and play games with me. When they were in class, I would play alone on the campus. And the small rooftop on the attic was my secret base at that time

I lay on this bench basking in the sun, and on rainy days, I leaned against the eaves watching the ripples on the ground. The days were ordinary, but they were also much more interesting than before

Until one afternoon, while I was huddled in my chair reading a comic book, I heard a few faint sobs that were almost drowned out by the sound of the wind

He was a young boy wearing a white shirt, appearing slightly older than me, but his whole

body seemed thin. In addition, his tear-stained face unexpectedly evoked a feeling of pity in my young self at that time

"Are you... are you okay?"

I leaned on Aaron's shoulder, sitting at the place where we first met, and finally recalled the first words I had said to him

What is my answer? In my impression, he did not speak to me

He was not much different from Aaron, whom I later came to know, in terms of being silent and reserved. The only difference was that at that time, he didn't have time to hide his emotions in front of me, and I saw tears in his eyes

Fortunately, my ability to withstand psychological pressure became extremely strong

after my parents left me alone for several years when I was a child. Regardless of whether the other person responded or not, I did not feel embarrassed or inappropriate. Instead, I directly took out a handkerchief and handed it over, telling him never to fall into despair no matter what happened

"Never fall into despair."

These were the words spoken by 33-year-old Aaron to me. At this moment, the two of us seemed to transcend time and space, finally completing a soulful recognition

He held me in his arms, as if unsure if I remembered those things or not, and repeatedly told me, "Olive, it was your encouragement that got me through that dark period. And now, it is your companionship that makes me no longer fear the past. You never actually left, you have

always been with me, accompanying me through every journey of my life, in my heart."

I suddenly felt a warm touch on my neck, which was probably Aaron's tears

Our meeting, acquaintance, and love with each other have now achieved a perfect closure

"T have always remembered the words we said on the rooftop, but you left school later and never appeared again. Aaron, I have never forgotten everything between us, it was only later that I realized you were that boy."

We just went through a series of misunderstandings, he was braver than Reinhard, and I was luckier than Elizabeth

After that day, Aaron slept through the night for the first time in the apartment near the school

There were no pillows stained with tears, nor were there any painful murmurs in the middle of the night

I knew that everything I did was successful

Aaron would never be controlled by those terrible shadows again. This was his victory, and it was also my victory

The day we returned to Berlin, the sun was shining brightly. Colston personally drove to the airport to pick us up. He brought a big bunch of sunflowers, which were for Aaron

He sincerely felt happy for us, both as a friend and as a doctor

And afterward, all our energy was focused back on the family

Aaron's work remained busy, but he made time

every day to accompany me to those prenatal classes that we weren't sure if they were really useful. He said it didn't matter 1f our daughters could understand, what mattered was that every time he placed his hand on my belly and felt the leap of the new life, he was filled with joy

However, just as we were eagerly awaiting the arrival of new life, my career played a huge joke on me
