Unexpected Arrival save
Wingfield gazed at Za, his demeanor tinged with loneliness and a hint of mncholy, perhaps
influenced by alcohol. Za nodded in understanding. Wingfield gestured toward a spot nearby.
“She’s over there…”
Za followed his gaze to the shimmering sea under the moonlit sky. She felt a slight pang of
confusion, but an unsettling premonition gripped her heart. Choosing not to ask further, she simply
watched Wingfield in silence. Wingfield mustered a bitter smile and spoke again, his voiceden with
sorrow. “She remains forever trapped in the summer when she was thirteen.”
Za’s eyes welled up with a touch of sadness. She bit her lip, her delicate eyebrows furrowing in
concern.
She didn’t know what words to offer as sce to Wingfield, nor did she know how to divert the
conversation… away from this sea of sorrow. She couldn’t either ascertain if this was merely
Wingfield’s emotional release prompted by alcohol.
If sharing his pain provided some relief, then perhaps this discussion needed to continue. But she truly
didn’t know… what to say. Thus, she quietly observed him, attentively listening to his heartfelt
disclosure.
“That year, I was attending university in another city. I promised her that I would return to see her once
novelxo fast updateshe had waited through one thousand and one sunny days. “And that day
happened to mark the one thousand and first sunny day…
“My parents went on a sea voyage, and she waited alone by the shore, yearning for their return and for
me to see her.
“But on that very day, at that very moment, she encountered a group of drunkards. After tormenting her,
they pressed her into the sea until she couldn’t breathe.

“Back then, Aromasouth Ind was awless ce, where the local thugs held sway. I always warned
her never to leave the house at night, and she always
listened… But on that one asion, just that single time… It wasn’t that she disobeyed; she was
waiting for me toe home!
“Even to this day, I dare not to think about it. She can’t speak, she can’t hear anything, and she can’t
even shout for help! “That day… how desperate and frightened was she?”
Wingfield’s voice quivered with intense emotion, his words disjointed and difficult to string together. At
that moment, his emotions crumbledpletely, and an indescribable sorrow consumed him, tears
cascading down his face. A true man does not easily shed tears, except when his heart is truly
wounded.
At this moment, nobody would ridicule him. This burden of guilt and remorse was deeply entrenched in
the heart of a brother, an indelible scar that would persist throughout his lifetime. One thousand and
one sunny days,
reminiscent of “One Thousand and One Nights”, formed nothing more than a brief tale, an unfinished
narrative left by a brother for his sister’s hopeful anticipation.
Who could have fathomed that this anticipation would eventually lead to… her demise? Wingfield was
not to me, nor was his sister. The true culprits were the scoundrels, the beasts who harmed his
sister! Time seemed to stand still at this moment.
Za gazed at Wingfield, desiring to offer sce, to reassure him that he shouldn’t burden himself
excessively, and to convey that his sister wouldn’t wish to witness her brother in such a
state.
However, upon reflection, over a decade had passed, and surely countless others had already spoken
these very words to him… “Wingfield.” Za gently nudged him with her hand. “Let’s take a walk by the
beach.”
Wingfield appeared taken aback. Over all these years, no one who knew the truth had ever mentioned
the sea in his presence, let alone suggesting walking by the beach. Za was the first person to do so.
Faced with her hopeful gaze, Wingfield nodded in agreement.
Side by side, they headed towards the beach. As they stepped onto the soft sandy beach, Za gazed
at the rolling waves and then turned to look at Wingfield.

Wingfield’s expression was solemn, and he closed his eyes a few times,cking the courage to face
the sea. Za smiled and gently tugged at his sleeve, encouraging him to open his eyes.
Standing beneath the moonlight, on the shoreline, embraced by the cool sea breeze, she gestured to
him. You know, this beach holds more than just the memory of your sister’s passing. It also holds the
memories of the one thousand and one sunny days she awaited.” Maintaining her smile, Za asked,
“What did you call your sister?”
“Dane.” This word was uttered with great difficulty, but Wingfield managed to say “Dane, your brother
has returned home.
He’s been back for over a decade, teaching at your school, never straying from Aromasouth Ind. He
has always been by your side, as close as can be. And now, he hase to see you.” She gestured
towards the sea with these words.
Dane was a deaf and mute. She couldn’t hear or speak, but she understood signnguage. Za then
turned to face Wingfield and said, “She will definitely see it.”
Wingfield was filled with a sense of wonder as he observed Za’s hair delicately dancing in the caress
of the ocean breeze. An impulse surged within him, prompting him to extend his hand, intending to
tenderly brush away the stray strands.
However, just as he reached out, his arm was abruptly seized by another hand, gripping it firmly. Bang!
