My aunt always smiled at me and said, "Good child, you are different from your parents."
"You are a very, very good girl."
"You won't be like them; in your next life, you will go to a good family."
"You will be safe and sound, living without worries for your entire life."
I didn't quite understand what my aunt meant.
But I always felt that I probably would never see her again.
That day, my aunt comforted me for a long time, telling me that she was going to a very far place.
There were many girls there, all of whom, like her, had been harmed by others.
They were all waiting for her to take them away.
"But Aunt, I don't want to part with you."
"I don't want you to leave."
I cried as I held her hand.
"Aunt, take me with you; I want to be with you."
My aunt patted my head.
"Silly child, I don't want to leave you either."
"But you must live well."
"You need to replace me and live well."
My aunt said I was the best girl she had ever seen.
She said she hoped that in the future, I could be safe and sound, living without worries for my entire life.
But Aunt, how can I feel happy without you?
After that, I never saw my aunt again.
I also didn't know where she went.
But I always felt that in this lifetime, I probably would never see her again.
I don't know how long it has been. My aunt and I were locked in a place without day or night. The sky was always gray and dim. The number of people there kept decreasing until only the two of us remained. Sometimes I would ask my aunt where those people had gone. She would always pat my head and say, "They went to where they were supposed to go."
Later, my aunt and I were called out as well. It felt like I had slept for a very long time. When I woke up, I heard joyful laughter around me. A soft little hand touched my face. "She's touching her sister!" "So small, yet she knows to touch her sister; how clever!"
I turned my head and saw the face of a baby. That little face was smiling happily. Although I had forgotten many things, the moment I saw that face, I immediately knew. This was my aunt.
As time went on, I slowly realized that I had forgotten many people and many events. Those memories turned into photographs in my mind. Gradually, those photographs faded in color. I began to doubt whether I had been dreaming for a long time. I even forgot my aunt's true identity. All I knew was that she was my sister.
We live in a loving family.
Our new parents have never hit us.
They always speak gently to the children, buy us beautiful clothes, and tasty snacks.
They take us to the park and to see Underwater World.
I saw big fish swimming around in the aquarium.
I was so happy that I couldn't stop babbling.
Sometimes I would disturb others.
My new dad would pat my head and gently say, "Little one, don't disturb others."
My new mom would say, "She's still young; what child isn't noisy?"
"Our Yuting is the cutest girl."
Mom and Dad also took me and my sister on the train.
I watched the scenery outside the window zoom by.
"Wow, it's so fast!"
"Do you like riding the train, Yuting?"
"Yes, I do!"
"Then how about if Mom and Dad take you and your sister on the train often in the future?"
"Okay!"
I am immersed in a happy love.
I have a lovely name, Li Yuting, and my sister's name is Li Yufang.
