But Cecil was very focused. When he saw exciting scenes, he would be very excited. I noticed a few times that he wanted to turn his head and share something with me, but he held back.
I thought he didn't want to disturb me while I was watching this movie.
I could see that he really wanted to share something with me, so I took the initiative to say that the movie was quite good.
Cecil immediately became very happy, and a childlike joy instantly appeared in his eyes. He gave me a big smile.
He said, "Right? You also think this is impressive, right?"
I replied, "Yeah. It's indeed very impressive. It's also quite interesting."
I looked at Cecil's innocent smile and felt a bit envious.
At his age, he still had such a childish side. I thought he must have been well protected by the people around him.
This was also a kind of happiness.
Somehow, I suddenly recalled my childhood.
Actually, Janet was quite special in my heart.
I knew we should be close, but I just couldn't feel that way.
Janet and I were the only two girls in our generation of the family.
We should be very close to each other, but somehow, she always liked to show that she was superior to me in front of others since childhood.
My father, Ronald Flint, had four siblings. Only my aunt, Marlene Flint, was the female among them, so she had been spoiled since childhood. As Marlene's only daughter, Janet was the most precious grandchild of our grandma, Georgina Flint.
But Georgina had a very bad attitude towards my mom, Patricia Flint. She used to complain that my mom couldn't get pregnant with a boy, and she even thought that the girl my mom gave birth to didn't look good.
Ronald was an honest and kind man. But he was too obedient to her mom, Georgina. He had always told me to be considerate of Janet and not to make Georgina unhappy.
But I was the younger one. As the elder one, shouldn't Janet take care of her younger sister, which was me?
Janet was indeed likable. She had been beautiful since she was young.
When Janet and I went back to the village together for the summer vacation, the neighbors only played with Janet. Whenever they got something delicious, they would give it to Janet first, and I could only stand awkwardly on the side, swallowing my saliva.
Georgina once said I was a boring girl who was not well-liked.
But I was just afraid of being looked down upon by others.
