"Nothing, | came to see my mom!" Heidi stood up straight, took one look at the cold tombstone and said.
"Let's go, I'll take you back!" "Thanks!" Following Fred's lead, Heidi then realized that somehow, it was already dark.
"Ah!" Perhaps because she had just been kneeling for too long, Heidi was just about to walk when she stumbled and almost fell.
"It's okay!" Fred asked with concern as he held her up with quick eyes.
"I'm fine, maybe I just kneeled too long, my feet are a little numb!" Watching the sky grow darker and darker, a bird call comes out from time to time inside the cemetery, making the cemetery, which was already a little eerie, look even more eerie.
Perhaps because of the nervousness and fear in the heart, the body also subconsciously leaned towards Fred.
"Come on, I'll carry you!" "Huh?" Heidi didn't react for a moment and froze for a moment before saying, "No, I'll go by myself!" "Don't try to be brave, it's getting dark now, if you don't go, you won't be able to see the way down the mountain later." Heidi seemed to think of something when Fred reminded her of this, "Thanks Fred!" At that, Fred squatted down and carried Heidi on his back.
She is really light, on the back, can not feel a little weight ......

Because of Rosemary, she met them. Since childhood, people who knew her, as long as they knew her family, basically did not want to make friends with her, for fear that they would be haunted by Heidi.
Since she met Rosemary, for some reason, she had a special kind of affection for Rosemary, a feeling that made her inexplicably want to be close,, so, no matter how Rosemary asked her last time, she never told her everything about herself.
She really treasures this friendship and it is because of this friendship that she feels at home again.
Heidi did not know how to answer Fred, put her face on his strong and broad shoulders, gently closed her eyes and enjoyed this moment of peace ......
It didn't take long for Fred to hear even breathing coming from his back.
Since she doesn't want to talk about it, let's not talk about it! After walking for about half an hour or so, | finally came to the car at the foot of the mountain.
Pulling out the car keys from his pocket, Fred opened the door, gently placed Heidi in the seat and carefully helped her fasten her seat belt.
Sitting in the cab, Fred looked at Heidi who was asleep next to him, probably because she had just cried too much, even though she was asleep, Fred could feel her skinny body trembling slightly, and her long eyelashes were still hanging with tears that had not yet dried.
She is now a completely different person from the Heidi she usually sees in the apartment.
| don't know why, Fred saw Heidi at this moment, the heart is very irritable, he also don't know what is wrong with him? Reaching up, he tugged at the tie on his collar, exhaled lightly, twisted the keys with his long fingers, started the engine and drove away.
"Why aren't you back yet?" Rosemary was sitting in the living room, seeing that the time was already ten o'clock and Heidi hadn't returned by now, and was worried.
"Vanessa!" Marcy had just returned from outside and saw the light still on in Rosemary's living room and came over.
"Why aren't you asleep yet?" "Marcy, you're just in time, Heidi hasn't come back since she went down today, could something have happened?" Rosemary saw that it was Marcy, like seeing a savior, and hurried up to her, asking anxiously.
"Did she go out with her friends?" After all, girls nowadays like to go out with their friends to eat or sing or whatever.
"No, she told me this afternoon that she would just go out and not come back for dinner, but now it's already so late and she hasn't come back, I'm really worried about her!" Although Rosemary is not very clear about the real situation of The Smith Family, she knows that she has a half-sister and a stepfather, and what she can guess from her words is that her stepfather seems to treat the sisters particularly badly.
"So you know her ......" Before Marcy could finish her sentence, she saw Fred come through the door with Heidi in his arms.
© ore” Rosemary was about to speak when she was interrupted by a look from Fred, rushing forward to help Fred open the door to the room and put Heidi on the bed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking at Heidi, whose eyes were still a little red and swollen from crying, Rosemary's heart flashed with a hint of suspicion, helping her cover up and gently closing the door before walking out with Fred.
When she came into the living room, Rosemary spoke up and said, "Fred, what's going on? Why are you with Heidi?" Fred shrugged helplessly, then told how he met Heidi.
"As for what exactly happened, | don't know!" "Thank you, Fred!" Looking at Fred, Rosemary said.
During the time she lived with Heidi, although the two were called sharing partners, they were actually no different from good sisters. During this time, Heidi's careful care and unfailing concern had already made her a part of the family.
"I'm not really sure about Heidi, she just told me that she has a younger sister, like ten years old this year, but from what she said, her stepfather doesn't seem to be very nice to her brother!" Looking at them, Rosemary slowly spelled out what she knew.
Fred leaned back on the sofa, frowning, and said after a moment of contemplation, "I think she should have run into something that can't be solved?" In his mind, the scene of Heidi hugging the tombstone while crying and talking was deeply imprinted in his mind, and every time he thought of it, Fred's heart jerked violently.
"Heidi basically every month, send back the money, | have seen her several times after answering the phone, will secretly hide inside the room crying, | also tried to ask her, she said nothing!" Every time she saw her hiding inside her room and crying, Rosemary's heart was hard, helpless in her own limited ability.
"Well, it's getting late, you have to work tomorrow, everything is better to wait until she wakes up!" With those words, Marcy stood up from the couch and turned to Rosemary.
"That's all we can do now!" With those words, Marcy gave Rosemary a look and left with Fred.
Seeing that they had all left, Rosemary heated a glass of milk from the kitchen and carried it upstairs.
Gently pushing open the door of the room, Rosemary gently walked in.
Looking at Heidi, who was curled up in bed, Rosemary placed the milk in her hand on the table.
