397 In the Mood for Love
“Haha." Heather laughed loudly, laughing wantonly and heartily. In fact, she laughed so hard that she started coughing violently, but even so, she couldn't stop laughing, and even her eyes oozed. She shed tears and had to raise her hand to wipe away the fallen embarrassment. The hot temperature almost burned the back of her hand..
Sitting on the right side of the square table is Lily. She has laughed so much that she can no longer make a sound. She is holding her stiff belly and slumped in the chair. Her shoulders are shrugging and she has no strength to move anymore..
Sitting on the left side of the square table was Paul. He laughed so suddenly that his beer spurted out. Fortunately, he lowered his head at the last moment, thus avoiding Lily's embarrassment, but Paul himself was in a mess. My hands and chest were all stained with beer, I was so embarrassed.
Sitting directly opposite was Renly, but he had an indifferent expression, as if he didn't know what was going on. He slowly put down the beer in his hand, crossed his hands and supported him on the back of the chair, with a calm look in his eyes. A trace of confusion seems to be saying: You guys, your sense of humor is really too low..
But just this look made Heather smile even brighter. She felt that her abdominal muscles were about to be exercised..
“Hey, hey, guys." Neil Toussaint walked over, with a complaining expression on his face, and said warningly, "This is a jazz bar, not a stand-up comedy bar, so restrain yourself, restrain yourself." Then he put his hand in his hand. Putting the lemonade in front of Heather, he frowned exaggeratedly and said seriously, "You'd better not drink beer secretly, otherwise you'll get us into trouble.".”
Heather raised her hands in a show of surrender and sarcastically said, "Yes, yes, Grandpa.".”
Unexpectedly, Neil didn't care at all, turned around, and then limped away with his back hunched, imitating the grandfather's posture, and leaning on a non-existent crutch..
This cooperative look made Heather stunned, but Lily and Paul sitting next to her started laughing again. However, both of them had no energy left. They laughed too much, and now their voices were a little hoarse..
Heather thought about it for a moment, then burst into laughter..
After watching the movie, what she had been wanting to do for the past few months was finally completed today, but Heather didn’t want to go back to the hospital—at least not so soon..
After spending a lot of effort, she not only stood on the same side as Lily, whom she had just met, but also pulled Paul onto the pirate ship, and even used her trump card to convince Renly to bring her over to pioneer. Take a look at the village.
“If I missed this time, I don’t know when the next time will be. I don’t even know if there will be a next time..”
Heather knew that this sentence was very lethal, but she did it on purpose. She was already sick anyway, and this was a fact that could not be changed. Why didn't she make good use of it? What's more, what she said is also true..
So, they came to the Pioneer Village. They went to have afternoon tea first, and then came to the Pioneer Village to have dinner and enjoy the performance..
This is the happiest day Heather can remember.
Before she got sick, she always had countless expectations and wishes for growing up. She once thought that she could go to a bar with a group of friends to misbehave, tease the handsome bartender at the bar, and dance to her heart's content on the dance floor; she also once thought She once thought that she could make friends through music like a hippie, and then a group of strangers she had just met would sit on the street and chat until dawn; she also thought that she could hold the hand of the boy she liked and stand on the Hudson River. On the riverside, watching the sun rise slowly……
However, before she has time to grow up, her life is about to come to an abrupt end. She may not even be able to wait for the day when she can legally drink..
He raised his head and looked at the jazz singer who was performing on the stage. There was a touch of sadness in his low singing, like a cigarette wrapped around his fingertips. He looked at Neil who was getting busy again at the bar, laughing and joking with the guests next to him. Chatting; looking at a lady not far away, wearing a cheongsam, a pearl necklace, a high bun, dressed up, alone, listening intently to the performance……
Life is so beautiful, every moment is so brilliant, everywhere, and even time becomes gentle. However, an inexplicable sadness invades without warning. She is very happy, she is really happy today I am very happy, but when the happiness reaches the extreme, it begins to feel bitter..
Her legs seemed to be a little swollen. Today, she insisted on walking as much as possible without using a wheelchair. But at this moment, her calves and thighs were spasming uncontrollably; her bones began to protest, and every time Every muscle was so sore that I had never felt tired before. It was always hidden in the cells and seeping out bit by bit..
Raising her hands, she saw her fingers curling up uncontrollably and trembling slightly. She tried her best to control them, but it had no effect. Her hands were still trembling..
Panic, uncontrollable panic, swallowed her up in an instant, and she had no time to react. The suffocation made her breathless. She raised her hands to cover her cheeks, but before her hands could get closer, tears started to fall. , the hot temperature passes through the fingertips, almost scalding the skin.
She is only sixteen years old.
Why? Why is fate so unfair? Why her, why did she suffer from this disease? What did she do wrong to deserve such punishment? She just wanted a normal life, a normal life for a sixteen-year-old girl. Why, why couldn't she? Is she too greedy? Could she just watch herself move towards the end of her life bit by bit like this?？
Why？
Smiling and laughing, tears fell down. That kind of despair, unexpectedly, hit her chest hard, as if she was drowning..
“Heather? Heather? What's wrong? "Renly was sitting directly opposite. He noticed Heather's abnormality for the first time. He quickly stood up and walked over, trying to ask about the situation, but was pushed away by Heather..
However, Renly didn't feel any strength at all on his shoulders. Heather's movements seemed to be unable to exert any strength at all. The powerlessness and helplessness revealed anger and despair. He was trying to struggle, but to no avail..
Renly put down his hands and knelt down next to Heather. Lily and Paul, who were sitting next to him, had encountered such a situation for the first time. They were caught off guard and didn't know what to do..
“Go away, go away." Heather tried her best to shake her head, but she could only shake it in a small arc. Her muscles were tense to the extreme, but weak to the extreme, and she could hardly move. "Leave me alone, alone. Just fine. You can't help. You can't help anything. Go away..”
Heather knew that she was too emotional now and that she had lost control, but she didn't care anymore. She didn't care about anything. She just needed to be alone. She was like a drowning person, desperately shouting for help, but she couldn't help herself. Push away everyone who comes close.
Renly didn't say anything, he just squatted next to him, harvesting quietly. He didn't come near, but he didn't leave either..
Time flows quietly like this, the actress on the stage hums softly, lazily and sexy, and the noise and restlessness in the air slowly settles down..
Heather was tired from crying. She had consumed too much energy all day today and was almost exhausted. Under this crying, it seemed that all her physical strength had burst out in an instant, and she slumped down instantly. Even her shoulders were numb. Can't support it anymore.
However, she still buried her cheek in her palms and was unwilling to look up. Because she knew that she must be in a very embarrassed state now. She didn't want others to see it, and she was even too ashamed to raise her head. She didn't know what was wrong with her. , collapsed instantly, everything happened too suddenly, there was no reason.
Derek walked into the bar, but he had no intention of feeling the atmosphere of the bar. Under the guidance of the usher, he successfully found his target. At a glance, he saw Heather bending down and squatting next to him. Renly.
Could something happen?？
“What's wrong? Heather? Are you okay? "Derek's heart suddenly contracted and he asked nervously. He walked forward quickly. Renly gave up his position knowingly. Then Derek squatted down next to Heather and looked up and down carefully, but He didn’t dare to act rashly, lest his actions would cause more unpredictable consequences, “Heather, don’t scare me, are you okay?？”
Heather covered her cheeks, shook her body, and expressed her denial, "I'm fine. Dad, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm very happy today, everything is fine. I just... just need a little space..”
Heather suddenly started wailing deep in her heart. She felt that she was so embarrassed..
In such a joyful and happy moment, it would be a big embarrassment to suddenly break down and cry until she couldn't help herself; if she was seen with tears on her face and snot in her nose now, she would not be able to do so in the future. Meet Renly in person.
Now, even her father has appeared, and she is even more confused about what to do..
“Heather, do you need to go to the bathroom? "Lily, who was sitting next to her, had an idea and asked..
Heather nodded repeatedly and couldn't wait to express her affirmation, "Yes, yes，”
The other three people present were all men, so naturally they did not understand the needs of girls. After hearing this sentence, the three people reacted and looked at each other..
Derek stood up, got out of the way, and watched Lily pushing Heather into the bathroom. However, Heather kept her hands buried in her palms and refused to raise her head. That look was really worrying..
He waited until the two girls disappeared around the corner before he realized, "Are there any relevant facilities in the bathroom here?" Derek was referring to the disabled access, with enough space for a wheelchair to enter..
Renly nodded in affirmation, but his eyes still stayed in the direction of the bathroom, feeling worried..
In fact, he can understand Heather's mood. The better life is and the more real happiness is, the more difficult it is to control the worry about gains and losses. Because, deep down in their hearts, they all know that all of this is too short-lived, like fireworks. After blooming, it disappears immediately, leaving no trace behind..
