In the middle of the night, my sister woke up my brother with a pillow, one second, my sister was still dancing awkwardly, and the next second my brother couldn't help screaming, my mother appeared, and the sister and brother just stopped for a while, and my mother Xiaoli and her new boyfriend quarreled again.

The little boyfriend is playful and always likes to pull Xiaoli out to hi, but Xiaoli's mind is on a pair of children, and she thinks that this is a responsibility that parents cannot escape.

"Why are you responsible for the mistakes you made?" The little boyfriend asked.

"Don't say my child is wrong, not allowed!" Xiaoli said.

The philosophy of life did not match, and this boyfriend soon blew it.

Xiaoli also realized that she couldn't go on like this, and she was going to move to Houston to finish the college she had abandoned halfway. Only in this way can we earn more money in the future and create a better life for the siblings. And the children's grandmother is in Houston, and she can usually take care of the siblings.

Upon hearing the news, my sister was firmly opposed. The next day, the family packed up their things, my sister forced me to chatter, reluctant to yard, reluctant to flowers, reluctant to toys, bala bala, and my younger brother was reluctant to let him still be an iron buddy, he kept looking back at his good buddy, riding a car to wave to his younger brother, which was considered to have completed the farewell ceremony.

Soon after, the family settled down in Houston, the siblings enrolled in a new school, and Xiaoli went to college to catch up on classes, and they stayed at her grandmother's house.

When his biological father learned that they had moved to Houston, he immediately rushed over from Alaska, and he hadn't seen the siblings for a long time.

His father was a passionate big boy, drove a classic American sports car, loved music and travel, and gave birth to two siblings with Xiaoli at a young age, but later realized that it was not suitable and divorced early.

My father took my sister and brother to play crazy for a day, and my sister performed well and hit all the bowling balls, but my younger brother returned to eat and could only mumble: "It's the crash bar that affects my performance." ”

His father immediately taught him, "Only children need bumpers." "My father's principles are a set, but my sister's impression of my father is basically that she is quarreling with her mother. The father was a little embarrassed, so he had to ask: "But it doesn't mean that the father doesn't love the mother, does it?" It happens when we grow up, we get angry at people a lot, and that's not a big deal, so I'm the same with your mom. ”

The younger brother followed the topic and asked, "Then will you still be with your mother?" ”

My father wanted to come up with the idea, but he wasn't alone.

At the end of the day, his father insisted on sending his siblings home directly, he still wanted to see his ex-wife again, maybe he could continue the front edge and wipe the rusty sparks. As a result, as soon as they met, the two didn't talk a few words, and almost pinched.

Mom and Dad's reunion seems hopeless, and the siblings also accept this fact. In the days that followed, my sister often followed her mother to the university to brush up on classes. The younger brother found that his mother was a little close to his psychology teacher, and the doctor was also divorced, and he also had a pair of children, several children of the same age, just enough to play together.

Later, the teacher asked his grandmother to help him take care of the children, anyway, two is to bring four to bring, and it turns out that with the carry, it becomes a family.

The mother and the doctor remarried, formed a new family, and added a stepfather and two half-siblings.

At first, the family was full of laughter, the stepfather was fair and humorous, impartial, and the family atmosphere was harmonious. But after a long time, his stepfather's problems were gradually exposed, and he liked to scold his mother whenever he got into trouble, and often secretly drank alcohol, and the whole family knew that he was a bad drunkard. Moreover, the stepfather's patriarchy is very serious, and he strictly requires the children to do a lot of housework, and if they fail to do it, they will be punished, and both siblings feel very depressed. Fortunately, every weekend, my father would come from out of town to pick them up and play for two days, and they didn't have much time to get along, so the sisters and brothers didn't want to make trouble. When my father asked, he responded politely, but if he didn't ask, they both fell silent.

The father felt that this was not good, very bad, and the father asked the sisters and brothers to speak freely, not to hide it from him, the parents of the children are friends who can always talk about everything.

The younger brother then put forward his opinion, "You can't just talk about it, you also have to talk about your own business, what have you been doing lately?" Got a girlfriend? So, in this week's parent-child companionship, the younger brother learned a lot of additional information, and with his father, the sister and brother will never be bored.

After another crazy day, the siblings came to their father's residence for the night, which was like a kennel, and in order to entertain the siblings, the father also sang an original song.

At the end of the happy weekend, time went on, and the younger brother and his half-brother had grown up a little more, and they began to browse some websites that were not suitable for children. The stepfather felt that it was time for a boy of his age to become a man, so he forcibly cut off his brother's hair. Because of his mother's absence, his younger brother didn't dare to express his opinion in person, and he didn't regret it until afterwards, and he didn't even want to go to school. His mother also thought this was too much, and said that he would talk to his stepfather.

The younger brother told his mother that his stepfather was a bastard, but he was not wrong, and it turned out that his stepfather was indeed a bastard. Because one day when he came home, he bumped into it, since that domestic violence, his stepfather's true nature began to be revealed, and he no longer concealed his drinking, and went to the table with a wine bottle, and loudly asked who still had opinions, and everyone dared not speak.

After this incident, for the safety of the children, Xiaoli finally made up her mind to divorce, did not pack any luggage, and only left the drunkard's house with her sister and brother.

Temporarily lived in Xiaoli's friend's house, and in order to completely get rid of his stepparents, he also transferred his sister and brother to another school. My sister was a little devastated, it was all so sudden that he didn't even have time to say goodbye to his former friends, so he had to change to a completely unfamiliar school, and he had to send someone to the fence. The younger brother is not sad or happy, he doesn't think it's bad, and of course he doesn't think it's good, anyway, it's barely acceptable.

In the blink of an eye, it was another three years, the white horse passed the gap, the elder sister grew into a young girl, reserved and slanted, and the younger brother did not change much except for the long beard.

The weekend is still her biological father's home turf, and this time she wants to take her siblings camping, but her sister politely refuses her father on the grounds that she is going to a party. The father knew that Samantha had someone at a glance, and it must have been her little boyfriend who also went to the party, because the father had already seen on Facebook that his sister was having an affair with a boy.

Under the pressure of her father, her sister admitted that it was true, and the old father immediately became energetic, and she had to give her sister and brother a compulsory lesson in life. "Well, I know it's embarrassing to talk about this kind of thing, but it's a parent's responsibility. In my own case, I had a child too early and was very immature, which led to a lot of deficiencies in parenthood. I hope you will learn from my mistakes. ”

In the face of such an enlightened father, the younger brother also opened his heart. In fact, he also has a potential girlfriend, a very cute girl, but I don't know how to talk, every time I talk to her about music, video games, new movies, what Batman is spinning fast, but the girl is not interested at all.

Father immediately pointed out the maze after hearing it, you don't need to find a topic at all, girls of this age like to listen the most, let her speak, listen to her, keep listening, nine out of ten. Learn this trick and blow up the other kids. Dad's theory is quite twisted, but it's a pity that the younger brother didn't inherit the merry brother's talent for the younger sister, and he collapsed when it came to actual combat, and he was defeated again and again, until he was 15 years old, he was still a manual transmission warrior.

Most of the regrets of adolescent boys are like this, the wind of time continues to blow, his younger brother Mason and sister Samantha have grown into little adults, and his mother Xiaoli has also changed a lot, and after finishing college, he got a master's degree, and he taught at a university, and his relationship also opened a third village, and he formed a new family with his students.

And the change in his own father is also earth-shaking, he also remarried and gave birth to a boy. The sports car was sold and replaced with a family-friendly MPV, which made Matson very unhappy, because he always remembered that when he was in the third grade of elementary school, his father promised him that he would give him the sports car when he was 16 years old. Unexpectedly, my father didn't remember it at all.

Seeing Mason's face stink like eating, his father was a little angry, to be honest, he didn't remember it at all, and even if he did, it was just a joke. My father felt that Mason should not have such fantasies and demands for nothing, they were just ordinary families, they wanted cars to earn their own money, and they could buy whatever cars they wanted.

In order to educate Mason to calm down a lot, his father gave a realistic birthday gift, a Beatles CD, a collection of records after flying solo, the price is not expensive, the friendship is worth a thousand dollars, the songs in it are carefully selected by the old father, in addition to records, Mason's 16th birthday also received his first suit, the first Bible and the first shot, but now he is not very interested in these things. He is obsessed with photography and positions himself as an artistic youth. So, on the basis of perming the studs, Mason also put on a manicure, which he thought was cool, and his stepfather thought it was spicy.

I think he had already shared a car loan when he was in high school and was financially independent. The implication is that Mason is a sissy, and father and son have always been enemies, let alone father and son who are not related by blood.

Mason and his stepfather intensified, no matter what kind of trivial things, the two could break out into a quarrel, and the final result was that the stepfather and mother were divorced again. Divorced and reorganized families are like this, they will always part ways because of the problem of their children, which makes Xiaoli completely tired of married life and never plans to get married again.

In his sophomore year of high school, Mason began to do odd jobs in restaurants, earning money to buy a broken pickup card, and at the same time he was busy applying to college, while his sister had already gone to college in other places.

Mason took his girlfriend to visit his sister, and by the way, he experienced an unfettered college life, and Samantha also taught her brother her experience, and soon you will be able to live like this, no longer have to be controlled by your parents, but the price of freedom is that you have to earn your own living expenses.

Mason felt that it was all too sudden, as if it had been arranged. Maybe soon they will graduate from college again, get their degrees, find a job to support their family, and follow the same routine as his mother.

Then another year, in the snap of his fingers, Mason applied to the ideal university as he wished, but he and his girlfriend failed to survive the breakup season of graduation, and the university that his girlfriend was going to study was not in the same city as Mason, and his girlfriend felt that the long-distance relationship would definitely not last long, so it was better to break it off as soon as possible.

Mason asked his father what he was wrong, and his father said indifferently, "You didn't do anything wrong, because probability has determined that your relationship will not bear good fruit." This age group is in a period of rapid change, and the probability of wanting two young people to stay on the same channel for a long time is very small. Even if you don't separate now, you will still break up after two months, and the result is the same, so you don't need to worry about it at all, it won't be long before you forget about this girl, go to college, there are many good girls, the most important thing is that you have to continue to improve yourself, feelings are practical problems in the final analysis. The right person at the right time can last a long time. ”

The father said: "With Mason's mother's good temper now, she can definitely tolerate his debauchery at the beginning, and maybe they will be able to go through the rest of their lives." It's a pity that the timing of the two meeting is not right, and the order of appearance with life is too important. But there's nothing to regret, after all, as I get older, my perception is getting more and more numb, like a layer of calluses that are thickening year by year. ”

On the day of the graduation ceremony, both parents and friends gathered together to celebrate the important moment of Mason's life. Both of them suddenly had a sense of relief, and finally boiled this pair of enemies into adults, as if they had completed the most difficult main quest in the game of life.

Xiaoli plans to reduce her burden and take a long vacation, and the first thing she does is to sell her big house and replace it with a small apartment. Because Samantha has been living on campus for more than two years, Mason will also go to the university to report after the start of school, it is too wasteful to live alone in such a big house, he has spent the first half of his life paying off the mortgage, and the second half of his life has to change his way of life. Salaza was very upset, but she didn't expect them to move again, and her mother corrected that she was just moving.

Soon after, his mother moved into a small apartment, and Mason was about to start school, and while he packed his bags, he kept telling his mother about chatting with his new roommate on social media. When his mother listened, she suddenly burst into tears, because she suddenly realized that her life was over.

Xiaoli just thinks that there should be more things in her life, but why is she already old before she is young enough? Time is a great river that flows endlessly, and it does not stop because of anyone's joys and sorrows.

It wasn't long before Mason started his college life, with cool roommates and a lot of activities. Soon, Mason also meets a new girl, and they hike together, bathing in the sunset, and feel the softness of this world. Mason really forgot about his ex-girlfriend out of the sky, maybe this is what his father said he met the right person at the right time, and the girl almost felt the same way, both of them felt that it was not they who seized this moment, but this moment that caught them.

The growth and transformation of a teenager and a family. Does it feel familiar? The children have grown up, the parents have grown old, and generation after generation seems to repeat it. The same trajectory, but it seems to have a lot of differences.

The most touching thing is that these parents are trying to be good parents, although their own lives are also unsatisfactory, but they have been doing their best to make their children not repeat their mistakes.

Even so, life is still a road of no return, and we will always be haunted by that path without choice. So what's the best arrangement in life? Maybe it's at the right time, doing the right thing, meeting the right person, don't look back, time will give you an answer, if not, then keep moving forward.
