Eight Uncles' Beloved Treasure (Lily)

Chater 934

Chater 934

Josh was in a daze, holding the glass bottle. He was silent as he recalled the days without his mother. Jannat knew that she would be leaving, and she could not bring anything to reincarnate with her. The only thing that she left in this world was this bottle of dried flowers. She urged him by saying, “Josh, the star papers are inside the plush doll; hurry up!” Josh quickly held the plush doll and rummaged inside it, and he found the paper. He started to fold paper stars while sitting on the steps. He never expected himself to be doing such a thing in the middle of the night in front of a mortuary.

Lilly and Blake also sat on the steps. Blake’s legs were long, and it seemed like he was protective of them, sitting a few steps higher than them. He took the star paper and stared at it; it was thin and long in a light purple. Josh was holding star papers of different colors. Lilly asked, “Daddy, do you know how to fold it?” Blake stuttered, “Er, there’s nothing that I don’t know of.” Always be calm when you run into a problem. He used his phone to search for a way to fold the star. Josh actually did not know how to do it either; Jannat had been teaching him for a while, and he still could not get it right.

“Josh, you’re so dumb! This is so easy; you just have to fold it there, fold it here, and repeat until it’s done!” Josh had already crumpled the paper in his hands. Lilly was helpless, staring at the paper. The two of them viewed the tutorial video with Blake. Indeed, it’s easy.” Josh clumsily folded his first start, but it was not as plump as it was shown in the video. Blake also did the same.

Lilly showed them the star that she folded. “Look!” Her star was perfectly folded into a perfect shape. Jannat exclaimed, “Lilly, you’re folding it better than me!” Josh asked, “How did you do it?” Lilly replied, “Like this and like that!” Blake and Josh stared at her in silence. She then said, “Just don’t press it too tight, and it will be plump.” The two of them tried again, and it was a little bit better than before, although they were still a little out of shape. “Ninety-one. When can we complete it?” Josh asked, “Can we finish them tonight?” Lilly swung her hand and said, “Don’t you worry, we’ve got a lot of manpower.” All the spirits inside the jar of souls were released. The stairs became cramped with spirits. They were all staring at Josh, and he was terrified. “You… What do you all want from me?” he yelled.

The harem spirit laughed at him. “You’re indeed timid.”

The ghost bride answered, “I’m training your courage!”

Malignant spirits, ghost lords, and ghost generals could sometimes touch items in human worlds. And Lilly’s spirits were all extraordinary. And Lilly would make sure that they could fold the paper with her. Pablo also joined them to fold, but he was kind of having a hard time. With everyone’s help, all the stars were completely folded. They were all put inside the glass bottle with the dried flower petals, and it looked magical. Jannat put in the last star by herself; he used up all her determination and deathly energy to fold it. And she wrote something on it to wish her mother well. She had always been sick, and she had never gone to school before. She secretly learned to write these by herself.

“Alright! Let’s give it to my Mommy!” It was already one day past the Reminisce Festival, so it was her mother’s birthday. Jannat was anxious. Will Mommy be afraid to see me? Will she freak out if she sees the paper stars by the bedside? Lilly grabbed her hand and said, “Let’s go!” Let’s just meet before the dawn breaks, and all shall treat it as a dream.

Blake brought the kids out of the mortuary. Although it was the middle of the night, the hospital was still full of people. The emergency room was full of patients waiting to get their treatments.

He drove his car out of the hospital, across the city, and arrived at Jannat’s neighborhood. “That’s my house.” She pointed at the eighth floor and said, “The one with the light on…” She muttered, “Mommy must still be awake.” She was hesitant when she arrived at the door. “My Mommy is timid; will she be afraid?” She mumbled, “Maybe I can just leave the glass bottle by the door. This should be enough.”

Lilly caressed her head and encouraged her by saying, “It’s okay; I’m sure your parents won’t be scared. Just knock on the door!” She then pointed at the stairs and said, “I’ll be waiting for you over there.”

Jannat gathered her courage and finally knocked on the door.
