There was only one room left in this homestay. I heard that it was a couple, and the landlord welcomed them warmly.
The room was a bit shabby, and Carlisle felt that he had nowhere to go. He had never lived in such a poor room.
Seeing his disgust, Helene borrowed another set of clean sheets from the landlord to change into.
Helene was busy all by herself, and Carlisle watched from the side. It wasn’t that he didn’t help, but that he really didn’t do these things.
Helene didn’t complain either, she probably got used to
taking care of others, no matter her younger brother Zion or Diego, under her meticulous care, became “unable to take care of themselves“.
After tidying up the room, the landlord sent two packs of instant noodles and pickled mustard.
Carlisle looked at the junk food and lost his appetite for an instant.
He collapsed on the sofa, took out his mobile phone, and suddenly received a birthday greeting from the United States in his mailbox.
His hands trembled.
He opened the mailbox and saw a familiar name, Sylvan.

“What are you looking at?” Seeing that Carlisle was in a daze, Helene walked over with the soaked noodles.
Carlisle immediately closed the mailbox.
Said: “My friend sent me birthday wishes.”
“Your birthday is today?” Helene was surprised.
She looked at the instant noodles in her hand again, and felt that Carlisle was really sorry for eating this for her birthday.
Suddenly she thought of something, put down the bowl and left the room.
When the rainstorm came, the sea wind whistled outside the window, the lightning flashed and the thunder roared, and the raindrops crackled on the glass, which made people tremble with fear.
At this time, a flash of thunder flashed across, and the power grid of the small fishing village was struck by lightning, and it was instantly plunged into darkness.
Carlisle, who was already asleep, sat up from the sofa in a jerk.
Helene, where are you?”
After shouting for a long time and getting no response, Carlisle got up and went to look for her.
At this time, the door opened.
Helene came in with a handmade cake.
A dozen candles were stuck on the cake. Under the

candlelight, Helene ‘s face was enveloped in a warm halo, and she walked towards Carlisle like an angel.
Helene hummed the birthday song softly.
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…”
Carlisle stood there dumbfounded.
He has not celebrated his birthday for twenty years, and no one knows his birthday except for a few close people around him, and he never mentions it to others.
”
Helene, thank you for your kindness, but since my parents passed away, I don’t celebrate my birthday.” Carlisle said coldly, suppressing her inner emotions.
Helene stopped in her tracks.
She looked at the pained look on Carlisle’s face and felt it.
“Carlisle, I know the pain of losing your parents, but today is your birthday, your parents must be watching you in heaven, they want you to be safe and happy, they don’t want to see you in such pain, so for their sake, you have to be kind to you Own.”
“You won’t understand my pain.”
“No, I have experienced your pain. When I learned that I was a child picked up by my grandmother at the seaside, when I knew that my parents abandoned me, my pain was no less than yours.
Although my parents are still alive, I haven’t enjoyed the love of my parents for a day. I didn’t have it before, and I won’t have it in the future. So, at least you are luckier than me.

Carlisle was slightly moved.
“You didn’t want to go and find them?”
Helene shook her head.

“The vast sea of people, where can I find it? If I find my lost love, can I come back?”
“And do you hate them?”
“I don’t hate. I believe that there are no parents in this world who don’t love their children. They must have their own difficulties, so all I can do is to live well and live up to them who brought me into this world.”
Helene put the cake on the table.
“I don’t know my birthday, so I never celebrate it. How about letting us have a birthday together today?”
“This is a cake I made myself, come and try it?”
Carlisle walked over, looking at the birthday cake that didn’t look good but looked very thoughtful, a crack crossed his frozen heart for a long time.
“Let’s make a wish together.” Helene closed her eyes and began to wish.
At this moment, the room was surprisingly quiet, as if there were only the two of them in the whole world.
Seeing Helene’s delicate face under the candlelight, Carlisle also slowly closed her eyes.
Helene granted three wishes.

When she opened her eyes, she found that Carlisle was staring at her blankly.
“Have you made a wish?”
Carlisle nodded.

“Then shall we exchange wishes? I’ll send you my wish on my mobile phone, and yours to me.”
After speaking, Helene sent her three wishes.
But Carlisle did not move for a long time.
“Why don’t you send it?”
“My wish can’t be fulfilled.” Carlisle ‘s only wish now is to hope that grandpa can live a long time.
“Sometimes wishes aren’t made to come true.”
Carlisle looked up in surprise, and met Helene’s eyes that were as bright as night pearls.
“Wish is to give people the courage to live, to make people brave, strong, and not afraid of any difficulties and obstacles.”
“Even if we can’t achieve it in the end, we will not regret it, because we have worked hard. People are actually very small, and there are very few things we can decide, so don’t embarrass yourself in many cases, just do your best.”
Carlisle never thought that a young girl who just stepped into the society would know so many truths.
He now somewhat understands why grandpa chose Helene out of so many applicants at a glance.

Maybe Helene is not the best, but her experience is the most suitable person for Carlisle.
Helene hands Carlisle the knife to cut the cake.
Carlisle came over and held Helene ‘s hand while hugging her from behind. “We cut together.”
Helene’s heart beat faster this time.
She didn’t know if it was an illusion, as if Carlisle was just like him, with rapid heartbeat and shortness of breath.
Moreover, the hands holding the knife together trembled slightly, and they didn’t even cut out a complete cake.
Helene didn’t know whose hands were shaking, she tried her best to focus on the cake, but the heartbeat of the man behind her made her feel distracted.
The whole process of cutting the cake was quick, but Helene felt it was very long, so long that her palms were sweating.
Helene ate a birthday cake for the first time, and she made it herself.
This is all due to the fact that she has to see how the cake master makes cakes every time she passes the cake shop. It just so happens that the daughter of the owner of this homestay sells cakes made on–site on TikTok, with all materials and tools available.
The cakes are delicious.
Carlisle doesn’t like sweets and only ate two small pieces. But he ate up the instant noodles transformed by Helene as birthday noodles.
