'If only you were still truly alive…'
Qin Tou hugged each tree, his smile reaching the ends of his face.
It looked stupid.
But Lin Diyu did the same, crying tears of laughter.
All the other kids stared at Lin Diyu; their eyes sparkled, and some tilted their heads in wonder. They even stopped reading their manuscripts.
"That kid is acting weird. Is it really so amazing to hug every tree like that?" a kid asked her friend. "Is it? Is it? Tell me! Tell me!"
"I don't know…" the boy timidly answered. "I mean… should we try it, too?"
All the other kids were also curious as they put down whatever they were holding. They ran over to Lin Diyu and looked at him; their gazes filled with questions.
"Does it feel good?" one kid asked.
"Hey, hey, why are you laughing so much?"
"Tell us! Tell us!"
