"Why did you throw the skirt? Is it necessary? Why didn't you throw me and Jimmy out together? Catherine, what are you doing? Jimmy and I don't owe you anything!"
"Are you sure you want to cause trouble on Jimmy's fifth birthday? Then just sleep here and wait to die! Kristina and I can also make Jimmy happy today!"
I didn't have the strength to reply but could only sob.
I was wrapped in a quilt, and he kicked me impatiently with his leather shoes.
"Are you pretending to be dead? Can't you hear me? Jimmy has been calling you. Who did you ignore him?
"Look at you, how can you be a mother? I was blind to marry you!"
After he finished speaking, seeing that I still didn't respond, he slammed the door.
I couldn't hear or see anything.
Then, he and Kristina took Jimmy, carrying the snacks and yogurt, and walked out of the room as intimately as a family.
As the door closed, I closed my eyes forever.
At the last moment, I thought, "If I hadn't been so persistent at the beginning, would I not have to come to this point?"
As the clock struck midnight, colorful fireworks bloomed in the amusement park.
When I opened my eyes, I met Jimmy's surprised eyes.
I excitedly wanted to hug him tightly in my arms, but my hands went straight through his body.
It turned out that I was already dead.
I died in our home.
I died on Jimmy's birthday.
My soul followed them uncontrollably, floating in the air.
I watched Jonathan buy the same snacks for Jimmy and Kristina and pay for them to play.
He was holding their bags, standing on the ground with a smile, waiting.
The happy smiles on the three people's faces made my heart ache.
Kristina bought an ice cream for Jimmy, and Jimmy excitedly asked her to hug him.
Jonathan spoke in a blaming tone, but he looked doting.
"You're five years old now, you'll make Kristina tired.
"When you grow up a little bit, it will be your turn to hug Kristina. Do you want to be a real man, Jimmy?"
I watched Jimmy become anticipated.
He raised his hand and promised solemnly, "In the future, I will protect Kristina and dad like a Superman!"
At that moment I realized that Jimmy could also speak sweetly.
He just didn't want to tell me.
I followed them to walk in the amusement park. When Jimmy was tired of walking, Jonathan carried Jimmy on his back.
After making sure Jimmy was asleep, he took Kristina's hand tenderly.
"Thank you, this is the happiest birthday Jimmy has ever had."
