The Tapes She Left Behind

"Watch me brave the kitchen once again!"Saying this, I picked up the phone to film, only to find something furry at my feet.The camera tilted down. Biscuit was lying by my feet, his eyelids drooping."Are you hungry?"I handed him a sausage. He rested his mouth on it but just continued to lie heavily across my feet, unmoving."Good boy, Biscuit. I need to go to the kitchen to see Paigey. Get up."He didn't move."What's wrong? Why are you being so clingy today?"I stroked his dry, brittle fur."I know, Biscuit is getting old too~ Too lazy to move, right?""Alright, I'll stay with you a little longer today~"I leaned back against the sofa. "I won't have the chance to be with you anymore, anyway."Biscuit let out a low, soft whimper.…[Goodbye, World, 2023.4.17, 11:21 AM — Is a home without people still a home?]When I woke up on the sofa, Paigey was crouching by my feet.Hearing my voice, she looked up, tears streaming down her face."Claire... I've heard that dogs c

[Goodbye, World, 2024.5.21, 10:01 PM -- The hardest words to say in this lifetime turn out to be 'I love you']At the concert venue, glow sticks waved frantically.Paige held the camera, but she wasn't filming Adrian Cole. Instead, she pointed it at me, who was waving a glow stick like crazy:"My lady, slow down, don't shake your wig off!"I pulled my mask down a bit: "It's fine, I checked it multiple times before coming. Besides, doesn't my makeup look pretty good today? You can't tell I'm a patient at all, right?"Paige laughed, choking up slightly: "Your makeup skills haven't improved at all.""Tch, you just don't know how to appreciate it~"I turned my head to avoid the camera. The next second, Adrian's singing voice came through the footage:"Mornings with you make the world vast, you appeared in my world, and love suddenly had color."I clapped my hands at Paige: "Incredible vocal transition! He sings so much better than before, not just by a little! That's my boy!"The

"Do you think people just walk and walk through life, only to realize at some unknown point that they are completely alone?"After thinking for a moment, I started laughing again: "Well, isn't that pretty good too? "Like right now, I only have to worry about Paigey. Being all alone means that when it's my time to go, at least I won't have so many attachments holding me back, right?"Speaking of this, I immediately waved my hands at the camera: "No, no, Paigey can't hear these words. "I'll hide this footage. By the time Paigey finds it after I die, even if she wants to scold me, I won't be able to hear it. "You guys don't know this, but she holds back a lot when she's filming. "When she really starts cursing, it's incredibly harsh. I absolutely cannot let you guys hear that."I paused and waved at the camera: "Alright, that's all for today. "I love you guys. I love you, my Paigey."…[Goodbye, World, 2024.6.25, 12:47 PM -- I never thought of abandoning you]Paige held the camera,

Saying that, Mia threw down some takeout, turned, and walked away.Adrian sat there, staring at that guitar for a long time.He tried to stand, but his legs gave out and he collapsed to the floor.He had survived on nothing but alcohol for nearly three days; for a moment, he had no strength left.After forcing himself to eat a few bites of the food Mia brought, he finally had the strength to pick up the guitar.He plucked a few notes.It was The Color of Love.That same day, Adrian's Twitter account updated.It was a photo of a piece of paper.On it was written a single line:[Mornings with you make the world vast, you appeared in my world, and love suddenly had color.][-- 2023.3.12]Netizens immediately caught the implication:[This song was written for Claire Whitman? At this date, they hadn't broken up yet!][So he was singing 'I love you' to Claire all along.][I can't take it anymore, why would God do this to Claire?]Overnight, Claire's Twitter account gained mil
