393 Home Alone
Heather Cross lay sullenly on the hospital bed, closing her eyes tightly, trying to make herself fall asleep, but the more she slept, the more energetic she became. She knew that her mother was sick, she knew that her father was exhausted at work, and she knew that she could not should ask for more.
However, if she is still healthy, she will not be a burden to the family; if she is still healthy, she can go to school normally, make friends normally, and... go to the movies normally. But, this is just if.
“Heather." A low call came to her ears. The whisper was like a whisper, which made her ears itch. Heather's eyes rolled, but she didn't open them. She still pretended that she was sleeping, and then that The voice got closer and whispered again, "Heather.”
The London accent and the mellow accent were like the strings of a cello. Heather could tell that the person coming was Renly..
Heather resisted the urge to open her eyes, but remained indifferent. She didn't want to move today, she just wanted to stay quietly in bed. No one wanted to talk to her, not even Renly..
After a slight pause, Heather heard two more calls, and then Renly seemed to give up, whispering in a low voice, "She is resting, so forget it..”
“Didn't the doctor say that her physical condition has been excellent in recent days? Why have you been sleeping so hard today?.”
“I don’t know, maybe it’s because of the weather..”
……
Heather couldn't help but stretch her ears. Renly was not alone. There was another companion beside him. But Heather couldn't recognize this voice. She had a curious impulse and wanted to open her eyes directly and take a look. Look. Then she heard the topic she was most interested in：
“What about the movie?？”
“Let's go by ourselves. We originally wanted to take her with us, but the weather was not good and the nurse didn't agree, so let's forget it. Don't take risks, in case her condition deteriorates further..”
“However, wasn’t it because of Heather that I wanted to go to the movie in the first place? If Heather doesn't go, we can take Annie and Alex to the museum..”
“don't want! "Heather sat up straight, and the atrophied muscles exploded with energy that shocked even herself. She spent almost no effort, but she didn't care about it at this time, and her eyes widened. Looking at Renly standing next to the hospital bed, and... Paul Walker？
Why was Paul in the hospital?？
Heather didn't have time to think deeply, and said eagerly, "My physical condition is very good. I mean, I slept all morning, and I can't feel better now." After saying that, Heather stretched out her arms in a pretentious manner. Lazy, as if Sleeping Beauty had awakened from her slumber, "I'm ready now. I want to go to a movie this afternoon. What do you think?"？”
But after she said it, Heather realized that there were too many loopholes in her words, which directly exposed the fact that she had just pretended to sleep, and quickly made up for it, "How about it? I mean, what do you think of this proposal? Let's Let's go see a movie together this afternoon? I heard that 'Buried Alive' is still showing.？”
Heather's eyes were filled with anticipation, and she looked at Renly with burning eyes, fearing that she would hear a rejection..
Heather's words were full of loopholes, but Renly didn't reveal her intention. He and Paul exchanged glances, and both of them showed embarrassed expressions, "Heather, if it's in the entertainment room, use the projector to play it." Old movies, that's no problem. But if I take you out, this……”
Paul also stood by and cooperated with the performance, "Yes, the weather in New York is really bad today. Going out to watch movies is not a wise choice..”
Renly continued to be jealous, "What's more, we need to ask Derek and Ellie for permission to take you out. Taking you out privately is against hospital regulations. If they call the police..." Renly looked at Looking at Paul, the two of them nodded repeatedly, looking worried. Only they could understand the narrow light in their eyes..
“No, no." Heather was afraid that she would miss this opportunity. "I have been in good health recently. Not only has my condition not worsened, but my rehabilitation has also achieved great results. The doctors have all praised me. Dad wants to The doctor also agreed with taking me out to watch a movie. Originally, my father wanted to take me out to watch a movie today, but he canceled it because he had an impromptu meeting. So, no problem, absolutely no problem.！”
Heather's eager posture didn't even notice that she was kneeling on the bed, standing up straight with her upper body, her eyes were full of desire and expectation, mixed with a hint of pleading, that lively and exciting vitality was Renly had never seen it before. If it weren't for the hospital gown on her body, one would have forgotten the fact that she was sick..
Heather looked at Renly and Paul seriously. They clasped their hands tightly and put them on their chests, making a posture of praying and supplicating. Then she saw the two people exchanged glances. Renly lightly Sighing, her appearance seemed to have been shaken. She knew that she had to add more fire..
So, Heather quickly added, "I promise, I will keep warm, and I will be careful, no matter how careful I am. If you feel uncomfortable, I will tell you as soon as possible. Don't worry, we will go to two blocks away." The movie theater outside is not too far away, really! A movie only lasts two hours..”
Renly put his hands on his hips and let out a long sigh, "The premise is……”
As soon as these words were spoken, Heather screamed, "Ah!" She knew that Renly agreed, Renly really agreed! But she quickly covered her mouth with both hands to prevent herself from shouting, and nodded vigorously towards Renly. Her eyes full of joy and happiness seemed to say: I will listen to you, no matter what you ask for. Can！
Renly laughed dumbly, "The premise is that you must keep it a secret. Otherwise, if Derek and Ellie find out, Paul and I will suffer..”
Heather couldn't say a word, she just nodded vigorously and kept nodding..
“Then, we must be careful not to be discovered by Anita." Renly seemed to have finally made up his mind. Heather raised her hands high in excitement, and her whole face shone with gleaming light, "Today's patrol Has the time for the room passed?？”
Heather nodded vigorously. The house tour ended twenty minutes ago..
“We must first find you some clothes that can keep you warm and warm." Renly seemed to be starting to think, his eyes fell on Paul, and he said jokingly, "And we must also find a thick coat for Paul." That complaint His tone made Heather burst out laughing, especially when she saw Paul’s awkward and jerky smile..
“You change your clothes first. Paul and I will go to the staff locker room to look for clothes. We will be back soon." Renly asked again, "Remember, you must be careful not to be discovered." After that, Renly and Paul then turned and left the ward..
However, the two of them did not go far, but quietly looked around through the glass of the ward, and then saw Heather kneeling on the bed, waving her hands vigorously, shouting silently with her mouth wide open, venting her heart out. After feeling so happy, I started to look for my own clothes, starting with my socks, step by step, and started to dress myself..
This is not an easy thing. Even if she just puts on one sock, she has already begun to pant. But, what does it matter? She's going out! She is leaving this hospital! She's going to the movies! Just thinking about it in her mind made her want to scream with excitement.
Looking at Heather's back, she was so focused, so devoted, clumsily and difficultly putting on the two socks, and then showed a satisfied and happy expression, and even started to hum a song softly..
Paul's eyes couldn't help but feel a little moist, and then there was a gentle tapping on his shoulder, followed by Renly's voice, "Let's go, you really need a coat. Anita said there are two in the dressing room. pieces, check to see if it’s your size.”
What others could do in only five minutes, Heather spent a full twenty-five minutes, but she still couldn't put on her coat. She put on her base layer shirt and sweater, and her body became even more clumsy, but she still couldn't put on her coat. After half of it, the other half still couldn't be put on. Heather stopped temporarily and breathed heavily..
Looking back at the door of the ward, Renly and Paul still hadn't come back, which made Heather a little uneasy. She wasn't worried that Renly would break his promise. But what if Renly was discovered? What if Anita comes in next second?？
Worrying about gains and losses, her mind was filled with all kinds of conjectures. Heather gritted her teeth, looked away, and started fighting with the coat again. She couldn't give up, and she wouldn't give up..
“Heather, are you ready? "Renly's low voice came from behind, and Heather's emotions immediately rose again, and she nodded, "Okay! "She couldn't help but said in a whisper, "Anita didn't notice you, did she?？”
“No. But we have to be careful." Renly held a black down jacket in his hand and gestured towards Heather, "A bit ugly, but low-key enough and warm enough, don't you mind?？”
“Don’t you know that girls all love beauty? " Heather wrinkled her nose and retorted, but her playful tone revealed her true thoughts..
With Renly's help, Heather first put on her thin coat, then her thick coat, and then saw Paul pushing a wheelchair over..
“We need to run wild in a moment, and I don’t want to leave you alone and get caught. Don’t abandon, don’t give up, Corporal Cross.” Renly’s words made Heather laugh. This joke came from “ "Saving Private Ryan".
After everything was prepared, Renly explored the way in front, and Paul pushed Heather and followed closely. The tense and exciting atmosphere was like "Mission: Impossible". Heather felt that her whole body was starting to get excited, and thoughts came to her mind. But it's the plot of the movie "Home Alone": Today, New York City is going to be in charge of her, isn't it?？
“No one! Walk! "Renly whispered rigorously like a combat unit, and then the two of them pushed the wheelchair, bent their waists, and trotted towards the elevator entrance..
