For Jenny's question, Jennis has already thought about it. She had been preparing for this day, and she had encountered many obstacles, and finally thought of a way to solve them.

Janis looked into the distance and said with a smile, "You don't need so much!" I've been saving up for a year now, and in a week I'll be saving up $100. When the time comes, I'll quit my job and go to a concert in Houston. ”

Such an answer surprised Jenny: "$100? Wouldn't it be impossible to afford food and shelter? That's not good! ”

"Yes! I'm going to work all the way there, and when I get there, I'll work and earn money back. ”

"Oh, that's fine!"

Soon after their conversation, Jenny cried and ran over to Jennis's to borrow money: "I, my father is sick and hospitalized, and I continue to pay $100. Yes, can I borrow your money to use it? I'll pay you back in a few days, really! ”

Jennith hesitated at first, but she quickly agreed: "Okay, you can use this money to save your life first." Just be sure to pay me back within seven days! I can't miss Alex's concert! ”

"No problem!"

Jenny took the money and ran away, so flustered that she almost tripped over a stone on the side of the road.

Looking at the other party's distant figure, Jennis was a little worried about Jenny's father, for fear that he would encounter misfortune.

The next day, Jenny didn't show up for work. The third day was the same, and on the fourth day, Jennis, who couldn't hold back any longer, asked her boss, only to find out that Jenny had resigned and left.

"Huh? Don't you know what happened, Jenny said that she was going to see a concert in Houston, so she resigned a long time ago! ”

"Performances, concerts?"

When Janis heard this, he felt that the world was spinning, like a bucket of cold water splashed from head to toe. I felt cold and cold, as if I had fallen into an ice cave all at once.

"Well, what about her father......"

"Jenny's father? Her father is long gone, and it is said that he was hit and killed in a car accident. Hey, poor boy. ”

Wretched? She is pitiful, so who will pity me?

Janis was furious and wanted to laugh, but she couldn't laugh or cry. She knew that she had been tricked and deceived.

It's hateful that he was deceived by someone who likes carpenter music.

She wanted to settle accounts with Jenny, but she didn't know where the other party lived, and only after asking the old version did she get the address.

ran over angrily, only to find that the other party had already left. As for asking Jenny's family to repay the money, she didn't know Jenny's family, and second, she didn't have an IOU or anything.

That's how good! How to be good!

Jennith felt that the sky had suddenly darkened, and life had suddenly lost its meaning.

She walked home like a walking corpse, and she felt bored doing anything. Even if she continues to save money, it is impossible to watch the concert, after all, Alex can't tour every day.

This is the opportunity of a lifetime, and it was deceived like this.

She hates it, hates it! She hated herself for being too naïve and too gullible to trust others.

Normally, when she is in a bad mood, she feels better when she listens to music, but this time it doesn't work anymore. The more I listened to the music, the more irritable I became, and the more I wanted to cry and grab the ground, and happily vented the stuffiness in my chest.

Jennis's family didn't notice anything wrong with her, after all, her daughter was often like this, and she would become depressed when she was teased and bullied. Sometimes I don't talk for days and I don't want to move.

"Jennis, it's time to eat. Don't listen to music, those music sounds like it's annoying. ”

Music? How many pieces of music?

Jenniz didn't react for a moment, she was stunned for a moment, and suddenly an idea came to mind.

"Aha! I've got a way, I've got a way. I can go to the concert! ”

"Are you crazy, you don't eat yet, you want to starve yourself to death!"

When she finished eating, she turned off the record and put it away. Then, while the family is not paying attention, put these things in a cardboard box and move them outside.

"Woohoo!"

Ugly followed, wagging its tail and chasing after Janis and refusing to leave.

"Go back, go back!"

Jennis's wants to chase the dog away, but unfortunately, no matter what she does, Ugly doesn't want to go back. There was no way, so she had to give up her efforts and let Ugly follow behind.

The concert plan was planned, and she never mentioned it to her family. Anyway, her parents don't care much about her ugly child, it's the same whether she says it or not, even if she disappears one day, it is estimated that the parents will be sad at most, and then they will completely forget her and continue to live.

"Well, I'm running away from home. Ugly, do you want to follow too? ”

"Woohoo!"

For Ugly's answer, Jennis agreed in front of it. So a man carried a heavy record player and record case vigorously, followed by a dirt dog.

There's a second-hand recycling shop in the port town, and when Jennis moved her stuff here, she's so exhausted that she's almost on the verge of getting down.

"Old, boss, I'm going to sell these things."

"Well, a dilapidated record player, a few rotten records, it's not worth much."

"You, how much do you say you can give?"

"Well, I'll give you $20 at most!"

Hearing this price, Janis almost jumped up: "What did you say? Only $20? Make no mistake, my record player has been used for a few years at most, and eighty percent of it is new, and it costs $100 when I buy it. And these records, do you know how precious these records are, they are the early records of the Carpenter brothers, and you can't buy them now. ”

"Add another $25 to you, don't pull it down!"

$25! This money is not enough to pay for the journey, let alone buy tickets for the concert.

Jenniz gritted his teeth and relented: "Okay! Boss, you give me $25 first, and I'll be back in a month to redeem it! ”

"Sorry, we're in a second-hand store here, and we can't redeem it."

"Okay, okay, you can say anything, give me $25, hurry!"

After getting the money, Jennis was a little dazed, and she rushed to Houston desperately, wondering if Lu Dao could fulfill her life's greatest wish. Maybe this is a road of no return, but she still decided to go on resolutely.

"Ugly, you see it's only $25, would you still like to go with me?"

"Woohoo!"

Ugly still only wagging his tail and shouting! It seems that I understood, but I didn't seem to understand. However, it will not leave Janiss, no matter where it goes.

$25 is only enough for a one-way ticket, and if you bring a dog, I don't know if the people of Lu Dao will want it.

Fortunately, the ticket inspector at the train station was accommodating and did not stop her from bringing a dog on the bus.

The ticket inspector also asked a little strangely, "This is your pet dog?" It doesn't look very good! ”

"Yes, it's ugly, that's why it's called ugly!"

"Ha Luha, it's a good name, ugly! Well, good, you can get your ticket and go up, find a seat and sit casually. Remember not to let your dog run around, it will not be good if it bites someone. ”

"Well, I'll be careful!"

Janis was prepared, she used a necklace loop to encircle Ugly, and then walked onto the train with a rope in one hand. There were a lot of people on the train, and it seemed that there had never been so many people who had done this train together.

"Maybe they're all going to a concert in Houston!" Janis thought to herself.

There were people smoking on the train, and there was smoke everywhere and the smell was very choking. Janis led Ugly through carriage after carriage, trying to find an empty seat to sit down.

When I passed some people, I heard them talking about Alex's concert in Houston, and sure enough, they were heading for the concert.

"I said that of the three Carpenter siblings, Alex was the only one on tour. If Richard and Cullen were together, the car would probably be packed. ”

"Well, it's possible. After all, the three Carpenter siblings each have die-hard fans, and if those people are gathered together, they will definitely be full. ”

"It's a pity, it's a pity! Why did Alex put on a show with black people, so many people didn't want to go to see it. ”

"There must be such people. However, I've heard that the black singers also attract a lot of black people. ”

"It's good that there was no big mess, otherwise ......"

Janis stood in front of an empty seat, she looked at the others and asked, "Is there anyone in this seat?" ”

The men were teenagers, and they looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. The whole train was almost full, and they had a vacant seat here. One of the teenagers placed his stuff on his seat, and from the outside, it looked like a guitar.

The teenager had messy hair, some old clothes, and jeans. He stared at Janis for a moment with a pair of pale yellow eyes, took the guitar from his seat, and said, "No one, you can sit." ”

The other two teenagers also glanced at Janis and said nothing, before talking loudly about Alex's concert.

Janis didn't bring anything with her, she had run out of money, and only a dog followed. Once you sit down, calm down a little and listen to the people around you chatting.

Maybe it was because she noticed that Jennith was eavesdropping, and the man with messy hair suddenly said to her, "Hey, you're going to the concert in Houston too, right?" ”

"Huh? Uh, yes! I also went to see Alex's concert. ”

Janis was taken aback, but quickly reacted. She was a little happy in her heart, for the first time in many years, someone had accosted her.

The other looked at her face with some strange surprise and asked, "You, are you a man or a woman?" ”

Jennith was a little embarrassed after hearing this, her appearance was relatively ugly, and she also appeared very neutral, and people often mistook her for a man.

"Nonsense, of course she's a girl pull! Can't you see, fool! The man with messy hair replied immediately.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to ask you that. ”

"It's okay! I've been misgendered a lot, and I'm used to it. ”

After getting the other party's apology, the embarrassment in her heart quickly disappeared. At least they didn't turn away from themselves and didn't laugh at her ugliness. It was a great start, and she began to feel that she had made the right choice to run away from home.
