834 The song ends and everyone disperses
In Manhattan at midnight, the lights are bright and stay up all night. Even in the middle of the night when the cold wave hits, the milky-yellow halo revealed in the rich night is still connected with branches and branches, carefully drawn out under the navy blue sky. A quiet and peaceful harbor, where you can faintly hear the noisy laughter, but the snowy night makes it even more peaceful..
Mount Sinai Hospital, which does not stop for 24 hours, the light of incandescent lamps is like a pencil sketch, and a few strokes outline the shape of a castle in the snow, revealing a touch of loneliness; but inside the hospital, in the quiet corridors, the lightness The sound of footsteps and the rumble of the cart are still echoing softly, as if there is no essential difference between day and night..
From a distance, the sound of laughter and discussion came from the ward, sometimes mixed with a few "shhh" sounds to indicate silence, but then the excitement and excitement flowed out uncontrollably, in the night. Echoing gently, adding a touch of life.
“After "One Person's Concert" ended, members of the Mount Sinai Hospital team escorted Heather back to the hospital. It was so bustling and bustling that even though they tried their best to control it and avoid disturbing the rest of other patients, the blood flowed rapidly. The surging joy and enthusiasm can't help but roll over.
Involuntarily, Renly slowed down. Out of politeness, he did not disturb the joyful atmosphere in the ward. However, he just had time to stand firm when the door of the ward opened and a young woman came out holding a child..
The young woman looked to be under thirty years old, and her long golden hair was slightly loose at the moment. It seemed that she had just experienced a crazy night and had not had time to fix her hair. "Hey, Renly, why are you here?" the woman revealed. With a bright smile, "Tonight's performance was wonderful! Thank you for your hard work.".”
Joss-Seliman, mother of Anne Silliman.
“Come and see Heather." Renly replied with a smile. After Heather woke up, he had not visited her face to face. Joss raised her chin and nodded to express understanding, "Is Anne asleep already? Take her back quickly.”
Anne, who was lying on her mother's shoulder, seemed to hear her name. She got up in a daze, rubbed her eyes, and looked around. She vaguely saw Renly's appearance and muttered, "Mom, I I'm going to a concert..." With flushed cheeks, blurry eyes, pouty lips, and curly hair like instant noodles, he looks like a Barbie doll.
As she spoke, Annie got into Qiao Si's shoulder again, mumbling vaguely, "Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow..." The voice behind completely disappeared into the murmur, and she was so sleepy that Just fell asleep.
Joss patted Annie's back gently and put Annie to sleep peacefully, with a smile in her eyes, "She went completely crazy tonight and spent the craziest night in her childhood. She didn't want it at all." She kept thinking about going to bed and wanted to go to the concert again. She kept trying to keep her eyes wide open and didn't dare to sleep. She was worried that when she woke up, the day would be over..”
The childish actions, reflected in Qiao Si’s words, were filled with a hint of pampering.
“You should tell her to go to sleep quickly, so that you can keep the good memories in your dreams." Renly's eyes also fell on the pink face, and the smile at the corner of his mouth naturally rose. "Hurry up and take her to rest. You're going to have a hard time tonight..”
Annie's illness is directly related to metabolism, so a regular schedule is crucial. Today, Annie went to bed later than usual, and she needs more attention from her parents and nurses in the evening and tomorrow morning..
Joss didn't expect that Renly would still remember it. She was stunned for a moment, nodded in panic, and walked toward the ward with Annie in her arms. After walking a few steps, Joss stopped again and turned around. The body called out, "Renly.”
The Renly in front of him seemed to be no different from the one on the stage. He had just changed into a set of clothes, a simple white shirt and blue jeans, paired with a smoky gray long windbreaker. There was no extra dress or cumbersome cover-up. Clean and refreshing.
However, it is completely different from the one on the stage. He has a warm and gentle gentleman's temperament, which outlines a touch of fragility in the middle of the night. It seems that he is not the dazzling performer on the stage, but just a person familiar to Mount Sinai Hospital. the volunteer.
“Thank you." Qiao Si said, thousands of words, but in the end, they are not worth these simple words..
The smile on Renly's lips rose. He was not modest, but nodded slightly to express his understanding. That calm gesture made Joss chuckle, "Hurry up and see Heather. She must also hurry up." Get some rest. I think she'll want to see you before falling asleep.”
This time, Joss didn’t stay any longer and left with Annie in her arms..
Looking away, Renly quietly took a deep breath, then opened the door to the ward and walked in..
Almost immediately, Heather spotted Renly, showed a big smile, raised her hands high, "I surrender." Heather said this, she winked playfully, "I surrender. , a promise that has been reminded to me so many times, why don’t I give up? Really, a grown man, he’s so hesitant..”
In fact, Heather's words were a bit vague, and some of the articulations were not clear, but the overall meaning was still expressed clearly..
Renly took a look at Ellie and Derek's faces, and both of them looked pleased and excited. This meant that Heather's condition had improved tonight? "At least, the effect is achieved." Renly looked away and said with a smile..
“Humph." Heather rolled her eyes exaggeratedly, then deliberately raised her chin high and knocked on the bed board, making a muffled sound to express her protest, "Also, and...use my essay as a Inspired and completed the song creation without the consent of the person involved, did this violate any laws? Do I need to invite a lawyer to handle it?？”
That arrogant gesture made Renly laugh..
“"Say you won't give up", this song with profound meaning hides Heather's confession of secret love. However, Heather is not shy and reserved, but takes the initiative to mention it in a joking way, without any flinching or timidity in her eyes. , looked at Renly calmly, confident and calm, bold and straightforward, "Heather Cross" was the familiar Heather again.
Renly gently retracted his chin and suppressed his smile, "The articulation is so clear, there is no problem at all. I have fulfilled my agreement, and now it seems that you have also kept your promise..”
Without avoidance, without circumvention, without caution, Renly faced the fact that Heather had been in a coma for several days with a magnanimous attitude, which almost made people fall into despair. Not only did he mention it, but he also spoke in a relaxed tone..
Others standing nearby were stunned, especially Ellie and Derek, whose faces turned pale and were at a loss. This was something they had been avoiding for fear of hurting Heather, fear of scaring Heather, and even more fear of the truth. Once they speak out, they themselves will be unable to bear it.
After the concert, they were always immersed in the atmosphere of joy, trying to avoid potential possibilities and dangers. It seemed that as long as they continued to laugh like this, the coma time would disappear. But now, Renly actually said it so easily out.
In an instant, all eyes were focused on Heather.
Heather didn't feel any sadness or nervousness at all, but laughed softly and gently. The laughter gradually became louder and louder, and finally her shoulders couldn't be suppressed and she laughed loudly. That look, that posture, Ai Rei and Derek both looked at each other, not knowing how to deal with it. They looked at Renly and couldn't help but feel a touch of anger and reproach..
Then, Heather waved her hand and stopped her parents, "I'm fine. In fact, I'm fine. I know what I've experienced, and I also know what I'm going to experience. If I don't have courage, I won't wake up." ." The words were still a little vague, and some syllables were swallowed by the throat, but the meaning couldn't be clearer..
Heather raised her head and looked at Renly again, their eyes communicating silently, and then she spoke, word by word, very clearly, "I won't give up." The words were so easy, yet so firm..
There was a smile in Renly's eyes. Only those who have truly experienced life and death, only those who are truly in it, can feel the pain and torture, and can understand each other's determination and choices. He cannot understand the feelings of his parents, Because he has never become a father; but he can understand the patient's mood because he feels the same.
“So, can I understand that I can still use that song? "Renly changed the subject and said half-jokingly, "Of course, I will pay the copyright fees to your account regularly..”
“Wait, wait." Derek couldn't keep up and interrupted the conversation between the two people, "What are you talking about? Which song? What copyright? What lawyer？”
Renly and Heather exchanged glances, and then both of them showed awkward expressions. How to explain this?：
“The source of inspiration for "Say You Won't Give Up" was Heather's diary, and Renly composed this song based on those essays; Heather's crush was Renly, but the problem was that Renly only regarded Heather as a friend; creation This song outlines Heather's longing and beauty for the future, and also tells the bitterness and happiness of secret love. Of course, the most important thing is to refuse to give up..
This situation is really complicated and confusing. Not only that, but they also have to explain it in front of Heather's father? This doesn't sound like a good idea.
What's more, this is Heather's secret. It's one thing to hide it in a song, but it's another thing to make the story behind the song public now. Renly chose to shut up, remain a gentleman, and leave the decision-making power to Leave it to Heather.
Renly and Heather both chuckled, but Heather took the initiative and said, "I told you, your performance on the concert stage will definitely be great. It's a pity that you won't be performing at the Grammys, otherwise The whole world can see it. By the way, you will be attending the Grammy Awards, right?？”
He actually changed the topic! Derek, who was standing nearby, was anxious and scratching his head..
