449 A punch
Looking at himself in the mirror, Adam felt very unfamiliar, as if he had seen a face for the first time since he was born, which made him a little stunned. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoFrom this moment on, cancer was no longer a secret, it had become a part of his body - more accurately, it had been hidden inside his body, but now it had surfaced in his head.
He, after all, is still different.
The bare head made him stunned for a moment, and his eyes were slightly moist, but he didn't pause for too long, took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and cheered himself on, but he still didn't have the confidence, and couldn't help asking, "Looks pretty good, right?"
However, he did not wait for Kyle's answer, Kyle happily immersed himself in his thoughts, staring intently at Adam's bald head, and then couldn't help but reach out and touch it, and his smile bloomed greatly, feeling the fluffy touch, it was really wonderful, he looked in the mirror, and then at Adam, and laughed contentmently.
"Not bad. Adam didn't notice Kyle's expression, not even Kyle's movements, he was completely caught up in that wandering emotion, he had to take two big breaths, trying to let the agitation that was surging in his chest settle, nodding his head, affirming, firming-
Adam himself touched his head and removed all the broken hair on it, the short, hard touch was really strange, and he looked at himself in the mirror again, trying to find the familiar self from the contours of his face, but it was really difficult.
Kyle was constipated again, the corners of his mouth twitched, his smile faded, he shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "No, it's/weird." ”
With a single sentence, the confidence that Adam had just built up collapsed, "We shouldn't have done this." His eyes widened, his watery eyes were full of doubts and hesitation, and he looked carefully, and couldn't help but raise his hand again and touch his head, rubbing back and forth, round and round. It looked like he was touching a ball.
"Yes, a big mistake. Kyle's eyes were already straight, and he looked at the blue head that had left behind like a scumbag, and felt like his thoughts had flown to the clouds.
"Why don't we go to the barbershop?" asked Adam, turning his head away, uncertain.
In the mirror, Adam's movements touched the reflection, and even Kyle came back to his senses, tugging at the corners of his mouth, "That's a good idea, find someone to take care of it for you." But then, watching Adam turn around again, Kyle's gaze fell on the bald head again, and his voice grew quieter.
Adam pursed the corners of his mouth and looked at the bald head carefully, a faint loss surging in his eyes.
He knew that he had cancer because the doctors pronounced the verdict, because he was undergoing chemotherapy, because he was undergoing psychotherapy, because he was vomiting, because he was starting to lose his hair, because everyone around him was looking at him with the eyes of a dead man, because his mother treated him with care, as if he were a fragile glass doll......
But, at this moment, that sense of reality came over me so deeply that it was like throwing two lead lumps into my stomach. His whole body floated and sank under the cold bottom of the lake, and the speed of sinking was accelerated by this weight, but the dream-like illusion faded a little, and the real and cruel reality was slightly more obvious, and his skin could feel the cold moisture beginning to invade.
Ever since the doctors pronounced his condition, everything seemed to be false, as if it had never really happened, as if it were just a fictional story played out on a television screen. Then, little by little, the realism slowly seeped out, the first time it was vomiting after chemotherapy, the second time it was the hair that fell out in the early morning wash, and the third time it was now.
The sense of realism was like a heavy punch, hitting the stomach again and again, and the pain that slowly spread gradually spread like a spider's web, and the whole body began to curl up and spasm in pain, but still had to straighten up and stand up straight, hiding the depths of the soul.
Each time, the illusory fog of dreams cleared a little, and the desolate scene of reality became clearer.
Looking at the bare head, there was a moment of stunned in the depths of his eyes, the bitter taste danced gently on the tip of his tongue, and inexplicably, a piece of water appeared under his eyes, and the fragility and panic of that moment hit him fiercely.
The strange self in the mirror seems to be the same, it seems to be completely different, it seems that there is something missing, it seems that there is something more. Something distorted, some deformed, some rusty, which made him panic, quickly lowered his eyes, hid all his emotions, and when he raised his gaze again, the clutter had regained its calm, and all the water light converged into the depths of his eyes.
Will Riesel, who was standing by and watching, easily captured the loss in Lan Li's eyes. The realism of the slow sinking, suddenly accelerating at every turning point, accelerating again, each time heavier, each more ferocious, each deeper and deeper, that suffocation and dullness of drowning, but unable to vent, no one understands but himself, no one can help.
With just one look, Will was hit hard, and before he could catch off guard, tears slid down, and he didn't even have time to move, he didn't have time to suffer, and he realized his embarrassment when his cheeks were burned. But Will didn't want to turn around, and didn't dare to turn around, just stared at Lan Li blankly.
The loss of consciousness in that moment flashed by, but it was as heavy as a thousand pounds!
Raising his gaze again, Adam looked at his bald head seriously, and his eyes showed a look of disgust, "I thought that after shaving, it would be shiny and shiny, leaving no traces." There was nothing unusual about the calm voice, but the clear eyes had already changed the sea.
Kyle didn't notice, and couldn't.
A bystander, after all, is still a bystander, and the so-called empathy is nothing more than his own wishful thinking. Adam knows this, this is his path, he must go on his own after all, Kyle's company, the company of his family, is his motivation, but every step, he still has to take by himself.
Kyle only noticed Adam's disgust, frowned slightly, and said suspiciously, "You mean, like Vin Diesel?" Seeing Adam nod, Kyle shook his head repeatedly, "No." Then he made up his head, gave a disgusted expression, and said aloud again, "No! that's not for you, you look like you're Charles-Xavier, and you're in a wheelchair too." ”
Charles Xavier, Professor X in "X-Men"
Adam rolled his eyes, "Hah! That's funny." The dry smile was really sarcastic, and the tone of the words revealed a disdain, "You should be glad that I didn't kill you with my mind now." He joked, "What the hell am I thinking, instead of going to the barbershop, I used your shaver!"
Hearing this, Kyle picked up the electric push shears and looked at them, showing a smug smile, "I've never cleaned them. Moreover, it is not used to scrape eggs, but to clean up/chrysanthemums/flowers. ”
Adam pursed his lips slightly, looked at Kyle speechlessly, and then spat out, "Did you mean the last time you played with Jonathan?"
Game night, but to clean up / chrysanthemum / flowers, this ......
"Poof. Jonathan Levine, who was standing behind the monitor, didn't hold back for a while, and the saliva squirted out directly, but fortunately he didn't stand next to the radio microphone to avoid the noise, otherwise it would have been bad.
Unexpectedly, it was completely unexpected, Lan Li actually made fun of Jonathan - the next few lines and dialogues are not in the script, and they are completely free to play by Seth and Lan Li. But...... It's nice to laugh. In addition to the embarrassment, Jonathan also had to admire Lan Li's whimsy!
The other staff members standing next to him were already in a state of panic and didn't know how to react at all, and the amount of information was a bit large. It's just that the violently vibrating pupils leaked their surging emotions at the moment.
Kyle was caught off guard by the sudden counterattack, shook his head slightly, smiled dumbly, and said in an angry voice, "I'm joking." ”
Adam retracted the smile on his lips and shook his head firmly, "I'm not kidding. ”
Kyle was countered, looking at Adam's extremely serious and focused expression, he opened his mouth slightly, and froze in place, not knowing how to respond for a while.
"Ka!" Jonathan's voice rang out, and then Seth was depressed, and shouted loudly complainingly, "Hey, hey, I haven't responded yet, how can I just get stuck here?"
Jonathan couldn't help but laugh, but he still had to restrain his smile and said seriously, "I don't mind, what do you mind." ”
When these words were spoken, the staff at the scene finally came back to their senses a little and let out a low laugh. Looking back, they can't seem to remember what happened, but they just feel that the filming of this scene is smooth, humorous, and interesting, as if everything is really playing out in front of their eyes.
And so it is.
The eyes of everyone in the audience fell on Lan Li. On the head, to be exact, the bare head looks too conspicuous, although it doesn't shine like Vin Diesel, but it's so eye-catching that it's too hard to ignore.
Although Jonathan interrupted the shooting, Lan Li still stood in front of the mirror, looking at the strange self inside. It reminded him of the years after his rebirth, looking at his projection in the mirror, the small baby body, the strange hair and eyes, the unfamiliar Chinese language, all of which were brand new but also impactful.
Now, he felt as if he had been reborn again, which made Lan Li a little in a trance.
In a sense, cancer, this is also the beginning of a new life. Either you die and die, or you live and turn the world upside down. This is a change from which there is no turning back, and it is a change that cannot be refused.
Loss, that faint loss stirred in the chest, and it was impossible to find a landing site.
