960 pressure relief
“Huh...huh..." The hot and bloody breath came from behind, rolling up large waves of air, rushing towards my face, like thunder; but when I turned my head, I could only see the boundless darkness, which was rolling faintly. , the bloody atmosphere is approaching step by step.
Running, running wildly, trying with all his strength to escape from the thick fog, like a monster with no end in sight; but his feet seem to have no strength, and no matter how he runs, he still cannot get rid of the lingering feeling in his heart. Crisis and fear; gasping for air, only to find that the oxygen is decreasing, and the feeling of suffocation makes people more panic.
Without any warning, his feet missed the stage, and he was hit hard by the impact of free fall. Every muscle in his body was roaring and screaming. But the next moment, he was standing on the stage, with a bustling crowd in front of him. The crowd, all the audience stood up, clapped their hands vigorously, and thunderous applause swept in from all directions. The sound of "papapapa" was like the echo of the valley, constantly echoing in the ears, and then echoing again..
“"Drink." He took a sharp breath and woke up from his dream. Renly sat up with a groan, his chest heaving rapidly, and the cold oxygen penetrated into his lungs. The anxious and burning stinging feeling gradually disappeared, and he quickly looked around. After looking around for a moment, I realized that everything just now was just a dream..
The sultry sweat wetted my hair, and my whole head seemed extremely heavy; my back was covered with cold sweat, and a cold wind blew from nowhere. I couldn't help but shivered twice in a row, and then I realized that my whole body was already covered with cold sweat. I'm soaked. I haven't changed out of my clothes from last night. My muscles are sore and my head is heavy. Every cell in my body is full of fatigue after physical exhaustion..
He picked up the glass water glass placed on the bedside table. His fingertips were so sore and weak that he almost lost his grip. Fortunately, he didn't knock the water glass over awkwardly. He poured all the water into his mouth in one breath, and the cold feeling came. Filling every cell in the body bit by bit, the whole person can truly recover..
Lifting the quilt, getting out of bed barefoot, then walked into the bathroom, turned on the hot water faucet, and started to pour water. Thick steam rose, and the tight muscles were slightly relieved, and the tense nerves were also slightly relaxed..
Pressure is still pressure after all.
The pressure for theater performances in London's West End is really too great. You have to give 100% performance every day. The slightest negligence is not allowed, otherwise it may lead to the failure of the day's performance; not only because of the six hours of It was a long performance, but also because the core and main theme of the entire drama fell on Renly alone. Before he knew it, the heavy burden had already fallen on him..
Renly is a perfectionist, at least when it comes to performance, he longs for perfection. Therefore, in addition to external pressure, he is constantly adding pressure on himself. After every performance, he needs to self-examine and test himself. The long performance lasted for two weeks without even a moment to breathe..
The physical consumption is increasing and increasing exponentially. The mental tension is getting tighter and tighter. It seems that even the instinct of breathing is gradually forgotten..
After last night's performance, his nerves suddenly relaxed, and the sudden free fall brought more anxiety and uneasiness. The whole night, Renly was dreaming, with bizarre dreams, from illusion to reality. Reality became more and more real, and finally it simply evolved into a stage.
After putting in the hot water, he soaked his whole body in it. The water was a little hot and his skin stung slightly, but Renly enjoyed it, as if he could feel the soreness of his muscles dissolving little by little in the hot water. Even the fatigue was gradually disappearing. Only at this moment did the tense emotions finally truly relax..
Lying in the bathtub, I completely relaxed and fell asleep again. After being exhausted to the extreme, I finally felt comfortable, as if floating on the clouds, bathing in the lazy sunshine and enjoying a moment of leisure. and freedom.
There was a roar of applause in my ears, echoing for a long time. After closing my eyes, the memory fragments of last night seemed to reappear in my mind. The whole audience stood up and applauded enthusiastically for a long time. It was warm and exciting. The applause kept lingering in my ears, hitting my eardrums hard, as if the blood all over my body was boiling..
Stress is inevitable, but it can always be motivation.
If he could do it all over again, Renly would still choose London's West End without hesitation. In just over two weeks, he has learned more than he has in the past three years. The greater the pressure, the greater the motivation, and the greater the harvest. And the more; fortunately, the performance contract still has two and a half months, he must cherish every performance that follows and truly enjoy this stage.
Quietly, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose.
“"Knock, knock." There was a knock on the bathroom door, and Matthew's voice rang outside, "Renly, are you awake?" Are you okay? "I just came over to check on Renly's condition, but found that there was no one on the bed, and the quilt and sheets were soaked with sweat..
“I'm fine." Renly replied loudly, "I just need a cup of hot milk." After saying that, Renly chuckled. Hot milk, the taste of children, "Matthew? Have the guests already arrived? "Otherwise, Matthew wouldn't have disturbed his sleeping time.
“Don't worry, you still have enough time." Matthew said in a deep voice, then turned and left..
After staying in the bathtub for about five minutes, Renly chose to get up and officially started to bathe. He fell asleep without washing up last night. Now there is green stubble on his chin, which must be taken care of now. It takes a while.
After finishing cleaning up, he changed into a set of relatively comfortable clothes, then left the room and went downstairs along the stairs. Then Renly showed a look of surprise and laughed dumbly, "Hey, guys, how's lunch? "It's already a quarter past ten, and there's not much time left before eleven o'clock..
Obviously, Renly did not expect such a scene. So many people gathered in the small apartment, it was like a small private party. This scene is reminiscent of Paris, where a group of friends gathered together on a Sunday morning. , chatting, drinking, smoking and joking, wasting time, wasting life, just talking about non-nutritious topics comfortably.
“Renly! "Bill and Tom, who were originally sitting on the sofa, stood up quickly, as if soldiers had seen their commander. Their well-behaved posture really made people laugh..
In addition, Alfonso Cuaron, who was sitting at the dining table, also stood up in a panic. His movements were still a bit reserved and he didn't speak. He just looked at Renly with a smile, and then nervously pulled the hem of his suit, as if Worrying that my appearance is not good enough.
This actually made Paul on the side laugh. "Be casual, no need to stand up." The first sentence was said to Alfonso, and then Paul looked at Renly, nodded and said hello, "Why? So, are you having a good rest?？”
“Very good. It would be even better if I could sleep all day." Renly said jokingly, but only Paul laughed cheerfully, and the others seemed a little reserved, which made Renly shake his head, "Hey, Meadow, you're making me feel strange like this. Relax, I'm not some monster..”
Looking at Renly in front of her, Mei Duo smiled shyly..
Today is Sunday, a rare break for the past few days, and Renly has truly relaxed..
A smoky gray sweater paired with black jeans. The sleeves of the sweater were rolled up to the elbows. Her slightly curly hair seemed to have not been trimmed for a while. The wet hair had already vaguely covered her eyebrows. She was lazy and casual. Friendly and natural, he seems to be a completely different person from the man on stage last night..
“Director." Renly came to the hall, took the initiative to say hello, pulled out a chair, and sat down next to it..
“Alfonso, you can call me by my name." Alfonso said cautiously, hesitated for a moment, and then sat down..
Matthew left the kitchen, holding a transparent glass in his hand, filled with milk, and placed it on the dining table. The warm milk was emitting light smoke, and its milky white luster was reflected on the log tabletop and brown woven coasters. A touch of warmth is outlined between.
Renly picked up the milk and took a big sip. He felt a hint of warmth in his empty stomach, "Sorry, I seem to be late. Everyone has already arrived, but I am the only one absent. This is really rude. "Renly said with a chuckle, picked up the dinner plate next to him, and began to add bacon, eggs and pancakes to the plate..
“No, no, no, it was too early." Alfonso waved his hands repeatedly, "Are you okay? I mean, are you resting well?？”
“Perfect." Renly said with a smile, but he had no intention of keeping the topic on himself. After serving breakfast, Renly picked up the plate and milk, "How about we go outside and talk? Although there isn’t much sunshine in London, it’s always refreshing to breathe some fresh air.”
Alfonso nodded quickly and picked up his own plate..
“Guys, you can just treat this place as your own home. That's what I do." Renly joked - this is Matthew's apartment, not his, and then Renly invited Alfonso to come On the balcony outside, he placed things on a small round iron table made of bright red, just like a coffee shop table in the streets of Paris, and sat down face to face with Alfonso..
Parisian cafes are all about this kind of atmosphere. At a small table, two people’s knees touch each other. During the chat, the ambiguity between each other is brewed bit by bit, and it is eliminated invisibly. The barrier between strangers.
Bill stood in the hall, dumbfounded. It took less than three minutes from Renly's appearance to Renly's departure. Before he had time to react, Renly was already outside the balcony. It was as if...as if he was not a guest, but Renly's best friend..
This illusion made Bill happy and shocked at the same time. He turned his head and caught similar emotions in the eyes of Tom and Meadow. Then Bill laughed stupidly..
