"Well, I'll take my leave, Aunt Martha." Adrian stood up and bowed politely.
"It's true that you've only been here one day," she sighed, but she didn't say much. "Come and see us often when you're free. Ed and Victor hardly go home these years."
Victor, the only son of Anderson and Martha, is four years older than Adrian. He started his own business after graduating from Yale University. Now he has a medium-sized company. Although he is not far from New York, he has little time to go home. As for the reason, we can know from the fact that he would rather take his mother to live in the past than come back. Anderson's rigid and stubborn, and his brother's relationship is not very good, not to mention, no hatred, no father and son.
"I will, auntie, and I'll see Victor when I'm free." Adrian hinted that although he is a family, there are some things that he can't change, and the key is
"I hope the next time I see you, you're not like this." Anderson walked out of the inner room, still in the unpleasant shape, until his wife glared at him, then slowed down: "do well, ED, determined his goal."
"Thank you, uncle Anderson. I understand." Adrian nodded and left the luxury apartment of his uncles and aunts.
Aunt Martha is right, but Uncle Anderson is used to having absolute authority at home, so even if it is good to say, it is still very harsh. Walking down the streets of Manhattan, Adrian thought. He pulled his windbreaker. In September, the temperature in New York was much lower than that in Los Angeles.
For the time being, come to talk about feelings regularly. As for Victor In any case, they seldom meet each other. If they meet, they can only solve it by themselves. Adrian, who made up his mind, began to wander around Manhattan. I've never been abroad in a previous life, let alone New York. Although I've been here before this life, I've all become memories. Now it's interesting to walk around times square and Fifth Avenue while checking with my memory.
Before he knew it, Adrian came to the mouth of the Hudson River. Looking at the statue of liberty in the distance gave him a dreamlike feeling. Since he woke up in February, he has been busy. Although his life is very organized, he has hardly had such a thorough relaxation, probably because he has just completed his first step.
Adrian shook his head slightly, remembering that there was a bench not far behind him. He stepped back to sit down. Who knows buttocks did not touch the chair, a rebuke rang: "Hey! Who told you to sit down. "
Adrian was startled by the sudden sound and turned to see that a man was sitting on the bench. It was a young girl who looked 15 or 6 years old. Her pink T-shirt was covered with a light gray coat. She had soft and bright blonde hair. Her facial features were quite delicate. She was a real beauty.
"Excuse me, may I sit here?" After glancing at the bags on the bench and some strange things, Adrian said. The girl wanted to refuse, and he added, "I don't think you need to occupy the whole chair?"
The girl looked at him with a mixture of vigilance and disgust. She dropped those things into the bag without saying a word. The action seemed to be venting. Finally, she held the bag in her arms and moved to the side.
Adrian laughed and shook his head. After sitting down, Adrian did not speak any more. However, although sitting here to see the scenery on the Hudson River was just right, it was a bit boring because of what happened just now. After a few minutes' rest, Adrian decided to leave. Before he got up, he subconsciously turned his head and looked at the girl on the other side. He was stunned.
The beautiful girl looked at the distance with depression, one hand holding her bag while the other hand on her knee gently kneaded, looking depressed as if she had lost something important.
"What's on your mind?" Adrian asked.
The girl was slightly surprised, turned around and looked at Adrian with a strange look. Then she sneered with disgust: "what's the matter with you?"
"Well OK, sorry. " Adrian spread out his hand, he is indeed a bit rash, but was about to get up to leave, but heard the girl disdained to say: "what do you know about people like you!"
The girl Adrian frowned and turned his head again: "what do you think I don't know? Your pain, your frustration? God, everyone has his own pain and frustration, but can everyone vent his dissatisfaction to the people who are kind enough to remind them? Or do you have a persecution delusion that the people who talk to you don't mean you well? "
"You The girl's face suddenly rose red, perhaps because she had been suppressed for a long time, she suddenly roared out: "you know how long I have worked hard in this ghost place?! You know how easy it is to see the dawn and fall into the abyss because of an accident?! I've been practicing ballet since I was a child. I've been to Europe, Italy, and New York. It's easy to get into that damned ballet company, but I can't get on the stage because of my knee injury! You know what! "
Excited mood let the girl's eyes are red, she immediately aware of this point, indignantly twisted her head to one side."Tell me? It will make you feel better. " Adrian laughed and waited a few seconds before saying, "do you know what I looked like two years ago?"
"Who cares what you looked like two years ago." The girl lost a word that was a little angry.
Adrian was silent and sat there waiting. After a while, the girl finally turned the other's head back and looked at Adrian with complicated eyes: "so, what were you like two years ago?"
"Well..." Adrian thought, "it should be the same to describe a fool who has nothing to do all day."
The girl frowned and didn't speak, while Adrian's eyes turned to the statue of liberty in the distance: "at that time, I was hanging out all day, doing nothing, doing whatever I wanted. In fact, I've been like this since high school. Until I graduated from college, my best friend had already taken over his father's company, and I was still the same. My parents told me many times, but I never heard of it until two years ago I can't hear them any more. "
A long pause.
"I'm still fooling around. Although my parents changed their wills, they still left some for me. However, the degree of fooling around is far more than before. If I don't drink too much, I will never go home. Whether it's the godfather or the diehards, I can't listen to it. I think I'm a waste. I'm born to be like this. Maybe one day I'll die if I muddle around But I don't know what happened. In February today, I suddenly Wake up, yes, suddenly wake up, a lot of things in that moment to understand. I know I can do something. I know I'm not a waste. I find my best friend. I start planning step by step. I have my own goal. In only 7 months, I have my own company. Although it is still very small and weak, I know I can succeed! I know that I will definitely stand at the top of the world and look down at those who have ridiculed me and think that I am just a waste person
A long breath, a kind of exhilaration after the spread of the chest, Adrian unconsciously expanded the chest. Then he looked at the girl. She was staring at her. After a long time, she asked, "are you venting too?"
"It is." Adrian shrugged. "I ask you, girl, can you do anything but ballet?"
"Well..." The girl thought, "I also I've been a model for a few days. Maybe I can go to play a drama... "
"Oh, hell, why do you have to go around those? Don't you have a choice? " Adrian said, waving his hand, "don't tell me that I won't. I spent the last 20 years of my life eating, drinking and playing, and I have no management experience at all, but I still become the boss of a small company, even if I still need help. You can't learn. Are you stupid? Don't you think you are smarter than others? Come on, you can get your part by practicing ballet hard. Why not in other fields? You can find a professional university, and then do assistants, journalists, analysts and so on, and then step by step to break their own sky! What matters is whether you dare, not whether you can! "
Although he waved his hand vigorously, the sonorous and powerful words suddenly stopped, and the girl who had already heard it was also shocked back to God. They did not speak again. Adrian gazed at the long breath of the Hudson River, and the girl gazed at him.
After a long time, the girl finally said, "frankly speaking, your speech is not bad."
"Thank you. How do you compare me to Martin Luther King's famous" I have a dream "
"Much better than" I have a dream. "
"Really?"
"Really, because you have a dream."
Two people looked at each other for a moment, the girl first chuckled out, followed by Adrian also burst out laughing, attracted the passers-by to look around.
"Thank you, sir. You are a good man." The girl stood up and let out a long breath, blushing to Adrian, her eyes seemed very sincere, "you will achieve your goals."
"So do you." Adrian nodded with a smile.
"Goodbye." The girl waved her hand and grabbed her back on her back and ran to the distance.
It still looks lovely. Adrian looked at the back of the girl who had gone away, and then he picked his eyebrows. What did she say just now? I'm a good man? Why does this sentence sound strange?
He shook his head and then was stunned. He slapped his thigh fiercely: "Damn it! Forget to ask her name and phone number
