The Abandoned Empress - Chapter 359
As I walked through the quiet hallway, I suddenly came to recall a special memory about my father. When I opened that door, my father used to welcome me, emitting the peculiar smell of books in his study. While he was reading a book, I used to brew tea for him with a throbbing heart. When he said with a smile that my tea tasted good, I smiled at him, too, with a sigh of relief. All those memories came back to my aching heart while I walked along the hallway.
When I could not sleep at night, he came into my room and gently patted my chest until I went to sleep, and gave me a goodnight kiss. He stroked my hair gently and spoke to me kindly all the time. His navy blue eyes looked sometimes icy, and sometimes kind to me…and I could lean on his broad chest for comfort.
All those days when I shared joy and sorrow with him now became a distant memory. As I walked through the spacious hallway, I buried all those dear memories of my father in my heart.
Although a lot of time had passed since his funeral took place, I felt I could now let him rest in peace only now.
