Chapter 255: Dou Dou Seeks Recognition
"So late already? Why aren’t you staying at home, running over to my place for what?" Shen Siyuan got out of bed and poured himself a glass of water.
"Being at home is so boring, I’ve watched cartoons over and over again. Mom and Dad want to sleep, and no one is there to play with me."
Dou Dou was bouncing around on the bed, not treating herself like a stranger at all.
"Then you could go find your Sister Mei Qi," Shen Siyuan said as he took a sip of water.
"That’s boring too. We can only sit there in a daze, and the streets are so quiet, it’s scary," Dou Dou said.
Shen Siyuan was stunned by what she said and after a long pause, he slowly spoke: "Then perhaps you could go find Sister Duoduo and Sister Xiao Yue to play with."
The most painful thing about being a ghost is actually loneliness, but after the three little ones became her Fan Souls, this problem didn’t seem to have been resolved. They still do not fit into this society and humanity.
Other than at home, they cannot appear in front of others at will, so besides their parents, they hardly make any other friends or communicate with others.
And most other ghosts are contaminated by desires, carrying a certain degree of danger, even without any sanity, and also unable to touch anything. Besides talking to each other and pouring out their troubles, there’s nothing else they could do.
But for a child like Dou Dou, there’s really no need for heart-to-heart talks.
"Yeah, I just wanted to go find Duoduo to play."
