135 The Story of Pike and Hepburn

In the evening, Xia Nian and Mo Xize hugged each other and sat on the sofa to watch the most classic and memorable movie, "Roman Holiday", looking at the elegant and mature male protagonist and angelic heroine in the movie, Xia Nian looked up, looked at Mo Xize, and asked, "Do you know the love story between Pike (the real name of the male protagonist in the movie) and Hepburn (the real name of the female protagonist in the movie)?"

Mo Xize lowered his head and kissed Xia Nian's red lips lightly, "Aren't they just a couple on screen?"

Xia Nian nodded, "They are not just a couple on screen, in real life, they have also loved each other for forty years. ”

"Forty years?!" Although it's just a number, but how difficult it is to really do it, he has only been eight years to Xia Nian, and the pain of falling in love but not being able to rely on each other has made him unbearable, not to mention that it has been forty years, thirty-two years later, he and Xia Nian can only be like Pike and Hepburn, or can't they be together?

Looking at the pain that slowly flowed out of Mo Xize's eyes, Xia Nian spoke softly, presenting the real and touching love story about Pike and Hepburn to Mo Xize little by little.

Pike and Hepburn met in 1954 while filming Roman Holiday, when Hepburn was 23 and Parker was 36, but Pike was married. ”

On the day of their first meeting, she admired him with the adoration of a maiden, and he adored her with the grace of a mature gentleman. In the dusty cardamom years, angels meet gentlemen, and on that holiday in the romantic capital of Rome, the purest love in the world quietly sprouts. ”

In that scene, they played the male and female leads. When they were busy, the two of them went for a walk by the river, and the trickling river eavesdropped on the whispers of the couple. ”

Mo Xize listened quietly, his lips lightly imprinted on Xia Nian's forehead, his eyes looked at Pike and Hepburn in the movie, but his heart felt the real story about them.

Pike loved to look at Hepburn, and his eyes were filled with pity that could melt away. Hepburn also loved being with Pike, listening to him and seeing him smile. Occasionally, Hepburn would put his cold little hand into Pike's generous palm, feeling the warmth of this generous man. ”

At that time, Pike's marriage had come to an end, and how he longed for Hepburn's love. However, he is not a man who is good at articulating. He has seen all the things in the world, and he is used to hiding all his joys, sorrows, and sorrows under a calm expression. ”

Hepburn loved Pike, but she didn't dare say it. She knew very well that the man next to her was someone else's husband and the father of 3 children. The shadow of the broken family at an early age and the education Hepburn received made Hepburn shy away from Pike. Hepburn, who was as kind as an angel, could not bear to let his wings of love be stained with the wet memories of others? That summer, Hepburn's love bloomed enthusiastically and desperately again and again in Pike's smile. ”

Xia Nian sighed inaudibly, "Many times, a reserved flower is always destined to fail to bloom a silent branch. So, a story came to an abrupt end that summer, and there was no follow-up."

The release of "Roman Holiday" made Hepburn change from a shy daisy in the mountains to a dazzling rose under the spotlight overnight. Soon, she has love, Meir Figer, a famous Hollywood director, actor and playwright, and a friend of Pike, who Pike introduced to Hepburn. Parker admired the man's talent and hoped that the man's career would bring Hepburn greater success. ”

Sure enough, that year, Hepburn's career and love were both fruitful, she won the Oscar for Best Actress that year, and entered the palace of marriage with Meir. ”

Tears flowed uncontrollably, as if he was not telling a story about someone else, but making a final confiding in Mo Xize.

Pike attended Hepburn's wedding, and Pike was still so gentle and tolerant, responding to everything in front of him with a calm smile. No one knows that under Pike's quiet exterior, there is something called helplessness and resignation. ”

As a gift, Pike gave Hepburn a butterfly brooch. It was 1954, and love for him and her was the beginning and the end. ”

Hepburn at that time naively thought that as soon as he turned around, he could escape thousands of times of sadness. However, she didn't know that in this way, she would miss the scenery of her life. ”

Soon after Hepburn got married, Pike divorced, then married again, and became someone else's husband again. ”

"Come to think of it, the interaction between men and women is indeed very mysterious, from friendship to love is only one step away, but from love back to friendship, it seems to go through thousands of mountains and rivers. However, Pike and Hepburn did it, with respect for fate and faith in friendship, they condensed the distance of thousands of mountains and rivers into the end of the world, and buried all their love and affection in the "Roman Holiday" that summer. ”

Mo Xize raised his hand and gently wiped away the tears on Xia Nian's face, but at the same time, his vision gradually blurred.

Soon after, Hepburn also divorced, and later, she got married again, divorced again, and then later, one man after another, from her life, went around and around, approached and walked away. In the past 40 years, the only thing that has always been by her side is the butterfly brooch. ”

Countless times, Hepburn called Pike and couldn't hold back his tears when he talked about his sadness. He comforted her softly, saying something innocuous and innocuous to her. No one knows that for Pike, every tear of Hepburn is like a falling meteor, piercing into the heart of the sea. ”

Hepburn didn't know until he died, and from the day Pike met her, Hepburn had been the moonlight in Pike's life, day and night, brilliant in the deepest part of Pike's heart. ”

"In 1993, the angel flew back to heaven, and Pike came to see Hepburn off and see her one last time. By this time, Parker was 77 years old, on crutches and faltering. ”

"Hepburn among the flowers, with his eyes slightly closed, is like a water lily after a summer rain, pure and quiet. The years have ruined her face, and what people see is the sadness of the twilight of the beauty. But in Pike's eyes, Hepburn is still the petite and charming girl with infinite sadness in her eyes. He called to her softly, but she didn't answer. She can't hear it, never can hear it, and the gray-haired Pike looked at Hepburn speechlessly for a long time, with tears in his eyes. ”

"At the funeral, the gray-haired Pike burst into tears and choked up and said, 'I was incredibly lucky to be able to dance with Hepburn's hand as my first on-screen couple in that beautiful Roman summer.' ’”

"As he bid farewell to Hepburn, Pike lowered his head, kissed her coffin gently, and said, 'You are the woman I love most of my life. Pike finally said what he had buried in his heart, which Hepburn had wanted all his life, but it was late, a full 40 years late. At this time, Pike didn't know that in the past years, Hepburn had been lowering his head deep into the dust, but until death, Hepburn still couldn't wait for the past and present lives to join hands with Pike. ”

Ten years later, Sotheby's held a charity sale of Hepburn's clothing and jewelry. Again, Pike came, trembling, and the purpose of the 87-year-old Parker's trip was only for the butterfly brooch. Eventually, he got it back. ”

For 40 years, Parker never told Hepburn that the wedding gift he gave her was not an ordinary brooch, but a family heirloom from his grandmother. ”

Forty-nine days later, Parker closed his eyes with a smile, and when his dry hand held the brooch, he touched Hepburn's beautiful heartbeat, holding the years that could not be turned back and the youthful love that would never be restored in the depths of the years, and Pike felt that he had no regrets in this life. ”
