NovelFinishChapter 359 "It doesn't itch." "You're not uncomfortable?" "No, not uncomfortable." Hearing this, the little one finally let out a sigh of relief.
Elysia looked at Elijah, suddenly feeling a wave of sadness wash over her. Today was the day she had to leave, and she might never see Elijah again. Though not her biological son, the bond between them was undeniably real! Elijah, sensing her sadness, grew anxious again, "What's wrong, Mom? Are you feeling okay? Should I call the doctor?" Elysia's throat tightened with emotion, and she shook her head, lifting Elijah into her arms and heading toward his bedroom, "Mom needs to talk to you for a minute." She was in a rush to leave, but she couldn't bear to say goodbye to Elijah so abruptly. Elijah loved her, and she loved him just as much! Every the called her "Mom," she truly saw him as her son... If it were possible, she'd take Elijah with her in a heartbeat. After all, what's one more kid to look after? But deep down, she knew it wasn't an option. That wild man would never allow it! Once back in Elijah's room, Elysia set him down on his bed, asking him to lie down. She checked his pulse to ensure everything was normal, then said to Elijah, "Do you remember what Mom told you before? If you really miss me, you need to be good, eat well, sleep well, and grow up strong. Because if you're okay, then I'll be okay too." Elijah, lying there, nodded obediently at her words.
Elysia continued, "Everyone is an individual, and with meeting comes parting. But just because we're apart, doesn't mean the love disappears. Do you understand?" Elijah seemed to grasp something but wasn't sure. Furrowing his brow slightly, he looked at Elysia and shook his head nervously.
It broke Elysia's heart to see him like this, feeling a sourness in her nose. Holding back her emotions, she explained, "It's like you and me. I know you like me, and I like you too. But we are individuals. You have your life, and I have mine. So, we can't always be together." Elijah suddenly sat up, emotionally stirred, "Does that mean you're leaving me?" Elysia didn't want to admit it, but she nodded, "Mom has to go away for a while. I have svery important things to take care of." Elijah's breathing quickened, "What things?" "Personal matters. I'd rather not say." "How long will you be gone?" "I... I don't know yet." "Are Elliot, Evan, and Emmett going too?" "Yes." Elijah's eyes filled with tears, "Then... will you cback?" "I..."
Understanding dawned on Elijah, and he burst into tears, "Do you not wantanymore? Are you going to abandon me? Did I do something wrong? I can change, can't I?"
Tears streamed down his face, "Just tellwhat I did wrong, and I'll fix it! If you wantto talk more, I will. If you wantto smile more, I'll smile all the time. You said eating more would makegrow tall, so... so... I'll eat three bowls at every meal, okay?"
Elysia's heart shattered. She embraced Elijah tightly, tears streaming down her face, "No! Elijah, you've done nothing wrong! You're perfect in every way. You're the most wonderful and talented child in the world! You're Mom's pride and joy! I love you so much, Elijah! I'll always love you, always!" Elijah clung to Elysia's waist, sobbing uncontrollably, "Then... can't you just stay?" mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofifl0&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
