Childish Flower

Mu Jin ran a little hurriedly, his little shoes rattling on the stone road, immature and firm in the sun.

Passing through the low bushes at the edge of the garden, he slowed down and stopped at a distance of about ten meters from the two of them. He pinched his fists and stared straight at the backs of the two of them, a little hesitant. He’s afraid he will disturb them, he’s afraid this little guest doesn’t like him.

“Brother!” Mu Ze seemed to feel something, turned around, and a big smile appeared on his face when he saw his brother.

“Tianchen, this is my elder brother.” Mu Jin stared awkwardly at the little guest who listened to his younger brother’s introduction. He felt that he looked better recently, and the gentle sunlight shone a little bit in his eyes, reflecting the twinkling of his eyes. 

“Hello, my name is Gao Tianchen, please take care of me in the future.” Gao Tianchen looked at Mu Ze’s brother, a little taller, but thinner than Mu Ze, and his skin was a little pale. His hair is all light brown, and he doesn’t look good, but his eyes are bright and energetic.

When he stepped forward to hold his hand, Gao Tianchen felt Mu Jin’s whole body tremble suddenly, thinking that he was abrupt, and was about to withdraw his hand, but was grasped by the person in front of him, although his hands trembled slightly, his strength was not small.

“My…My name is Mu Jin…” Mu Jin organized his language a little nervously, but only intermittently suffocated his name out. Looking at the smile of the person in front of him, his brain went blank, and he couldn’t remember anything. he just felt that this person’s hands were so warm and that this person’s smile looked good, standing against the gentle sunlight, dazzling his eyes. It softened his heart.

The young Mu Jin still doesn’t understand what love is and what love at first sight is. He just feels that he like Gao Tianchen very much. He wants to play with him and wants to be with him. This idea started from the first meeting, and in the years that followed It hasn’t changed, until many years later, after many things happened, this love was wiped out a little bit.

The Mu family and the Gao family are also family friends. Gao Tianchen met the two Omegas of the Mu family. In the days that followed, he always liked to choose various reasons to visit the Mu family. He said he was a guest, but every time he followed Mu Ze like a large dog, or he brought all kinds of novelties to make Mu Ze happy.

There have been more contacts with the Mu family, and Mu Jin and Gao Tianchen have gradually become acquainted with each other. Every time Gao Tianchen talks to Mu Jin, although most of the topics are about his younger brother, what his younger brother likes, what his younger brother has done recently, Mu Jin is still very happy. It’s enough to be able to talk to him, and what he says doesn’t matter.

After a long time, the two people gradually became close. The families have a good judgement, Gao Tianchen is Alpha, Mu Ze is Omega, and the two are family friends. This is a natural fate!

Although the two families didn’t say it clearly, they had already decided this in their hearts. Mrs Mu loves this alpha who has grown up excellent since childhood. Not to mention Mr Gao. She can be at ease. Everyone is waiting for Mu Ze to reach adulthood, and the two childhood sweethearts can achieve a good marriage.

But in many things in the world, impermanence cannot be controlled by others, and sometimes destiny will not let happiness go on forever, and it is necessary to leave some regrets that hurt the bones.

Mu Ze was diagnosed with uremia when he was 14 years old. The violent illness crushed this lovely and delicate porcelain doll. His thin cheeks sank rapidly, and even the dimples were invisible. The skinny appearance of this boy lying on the hospital bed stung the heart of everyone who loved him.

Master Mu asked famous doctors at home and abroad for diagnosis and treatment regardless of the cost, but could not find a treatment other than a kidney transplant. Mu Ze’s match was very special, and it was almost impossible to find a suitable kidney source. The head of the family’s usual upright back is also tainted with despair. Mrs Mu had been guarding her little son’s bed for a few days, her godlike eyes were flushed with tears.

The whole family’s kidneys are not matched. Without a proper kidney source, in the face of illness, even the reincarnation of Hua Tuo can’t rejuvenate this weak life. (T/N Hua Tuo 華佗 is a Chinese physician of14th century)

There are not many days for Mu Ze. Gao Tianchen does not believe or accept this result. He almost madly used his relationship with his father to find a suitable kidney source, but the result is still upsetting. Mu Ze’s condition deteriorates day by day. Hope gradually extinguished like a little spark.

On the day when Mu Ze left, the sky was wrapped in dark clouds like a curtain, and the darkness was so heavy that the cold air was soaked by the pattering raindrops. Everyone in the ward was silent, revealing the despair of death.

“Tianchen…” Mu Ze, who was thin and inhuman on the bed, seemed to feel something, opened his tired eyes, and muttered the name of his sweetheart.

With tears in Gao Tianchen’s eyes, he tremblingly stretched out his hand and gently stroked Mu Ze’s head. This person, someone who he had never forgotten from the first glance, was about to be unable to catch him. Those who are carved in the depths of their souls are about to leave the world.

“Don’t cry…” Mu Ze’s breath was already weak, and he softly comforted the people in front of him weakly. “I… the first time I saw you… you were smiling, the last time I see you… how could you cry?”

Leaning his head gently against the warm palm of his lover, Mu Ze’s fear of death in his heart is already very weak,  but he just can’t bear it, he dreamt about the future of the two of them. he(MZ) want to hold hands with him for the rest of his life. He also wanted to give himself(MZ) to him(GT) as an adult and give him some lovely children…he didn’t expect at last all of them are his foolish dreams.

Seeing the bitter smile of the person in front of him who was forced to endure the heart-wrenching pain, Mu Ze felt a little relieved and felt that he was too lucky. Although his life is not long, he can have so much love.

The tiredness that had never happened before hit, and the last strength faded away bit by bit. Mu Ze closed those dark and bright eyes, unable to see Gao Tianchen’s increasingly desperate and sad face.

Madam Mu had already fainted from crying, and Mu Jin, who was standing at the door, covered his mouth with trembling hands. His body slowly slid down the wall and curled up by the door. Big tears fell down his cheeks like rain, and his heart seemed to be dug out and he was about to lose consciousness in pain.

Mu Ze left, with Gao Tianchen’s love, leaving him with endless loneliness. Gao Tianchen’s heart was full of love for Mu Ze. He has poached away, and his heart was empty. No matter what, he could no longer fill his dissatisfaction.
