The cold wind, with damp water vapor, kept beating on her cheek. Her skin seemed to be tearing. But Heather didn't care. She opened her eyes and mouth as hard as she could. She couldn't help shouting, "hurry up, hurry up
Paul ran wildly ahead and opened the way; Langley is pushing his wheelchair behind him. He's following. At this time, the three people had left the gate of the hospital and came to the street. The wet street was full of stone blue. Even the dark red brick wall lost its original color. However, the three people didn't mind. They were running fast and their happy smile circled over the street.
Heather opened her hands and her face was like a flower
All the excitement, all the joy, all the happiness turned into a scream, cheerfully and wantonly called out, the cold air along the throat into the lungs, but quietly dissipated in the boiling hot breathing, like a train general, rushing, whistling past, towards the spring, towards hope, towards tomorrow, running away.
After running for a block, they stopped at the traffic lights at the intersection. Both Raleigh and Paul were panting. Even Heather's breath became short and urgent. They looked back to make sure that no one was following. Then the three exchanged sight and laughed together.
"Come on, walk down this street, two blocks away, and there's a cinema." Among the three, lanli was the one who was familiar with the streets of Manhattan and took the initiative to lead the way.
Heather greedily looked at the scene in front of her, the desolate, dilapidated, bleak winter scene of New York, as if the whole city had fallen into a mess, but for her, it was so beautiful, even the dirty snow piles piled up on the street could make her eyes stay for a long time.
The whole world was fresh, and her mood began to fly.
Within a short ten minute walk, they arrived at the cinema smoothly. Entering the room from the outside, Heather was a little disappointed. She still wanted to stay outside for a little longer, even if she just walked one more street. However, the thought that she would be able to see a movie soon made her depressed and excited again.
Before you get sick, everything is taken for granted. It's taken for granted to watch movies, to go shopping, and to go to school. But now, even simple things like walking and breathing have become difficult. Entering the cinema again, Heather was in a different mood.
She looked curiously at the old decor of the cinema. On the walls were posters of the latest popular works, "thunder of the earth", "no return" and so on; There is an art works column in the corner next to it. The posters on display are all the recent works that are being screened, "Four Lions", "howl", "animal kingdom" and so on.
Then Heather saw the poster of "buried alive", and she began to get excited. She has been waiting for this film for too long. Can she watch it today?
From a distance, Heather saw Paul coming with popcorn and coke in his arms. His frantic posture made people laugh. Heather stretched his neck and searched everywhere. Then he saw Paul's movie ticket in his mouth, which showed his satisfaction.
"Langley, are you sure I can go in?" Heather suddenly thought of something and asked anxiously.
It's mindless. Langley doesn't understand it very well. He looks at it suspiciously. Heather explains, "I mean, 'buried alive' is an R-rated movie, right? May I go in? " However, this sentence just said, Heather regretted, if blue li really because of worry, refused to take her to watch, then how to do?
Lan Li's expression was a little strange.
The so-called R-rated movies can be translated into "restricted movies", which are recommended to be watched over the age of 17. In other words, children under the age of 17 must be accompanied by adults to watch. However, it is not forbidden to watch children under the age of 17 - if it is forbidden, it is "NC-17".
In most cases, parents do not allow their children to watch R-rated movies. After all, it contains a lot of content that is not conducive to children's education. Therefore, in the absence of adult accompaniment, the cinema naturally does not allow children to watch R-rated films.
However, today's move to watch the film, lenley not only asked Derek's consent, but also obtained permission to watch "buried alive". After all, Heather's situation is too special. For her, R-rated movies are not what Derek and Ellie need to worry about.
All the actions just now are just a play. Originally, I just wanted to mobilize Heather's enthusiasm, but I didn't expect that Heather would cooperate so much, so Langley and Paul kept performing, really making the day's outing special.
Looking at Heather, who is really worried, Lan Li understands that Heather is only 16 years old this year.
Before she fell ill, she was banned from watching R-rated movies - the age at which she was allowed to watch R-rated movies when accompanied by adults was 13 to 17. So, for Heather, there's no difference between R-rated movies and NC-17, that's the movies she can't watch.
After he figured it out, lanli's idea of mischief rose again, and he shook his head at Heather with a straight face, "what should I do then? Otherwise, we'll switch to other movies now. " Narnia legend or Harry Potter
"No!" Heather flatly vetoed it. She took the initiative and said urgently, "otherwise, I can lie. I cheat the ticket collector. I'm 17 years old. Anyway, I'm in a wheelchair. If he refuses, I'll say he discriminates against the disabled!"
Paul, who only had time to stand firm, was confused.
Langley winked at Paul, then said anxiously, "you don't look like you're seventeen years old. What if he asks you to show me your ID card and the disabled certificate?"
Paul stared at lanli's letter. In this ordinary cinema, the ticket examiners would not be so strict. It's not unusual for children aged 12 or 3 to sneak into the cinema and watch restricted adult movies. It's more like the customs than the cinema.
But Heather didn't know the bend and asked eagerly, "what should I do?"
Lan Li just blinked, and he had an idea. Since today's game is the kid's version of the victory escape, why not go to the end?
"Later Paul will go to divert the attention of the ticket collector, and then I'll push you around from behind. Anyway, we've already bought tickets. It's not a ticket evasion." Blue Li looked at Paul's stunned expression, the corners of his mouth could not help but flick. It was very amusing to describe Paul's clumsy lying in his mind.
Heather's eyes swept back before Langley and Paul, but he said anxiously, "but Paul seems to be an honest man and can't speak. What if he is seen through? Otherwise, you'd better go? "
Lan Li's smile froze on his lips. What does that mean? Isn't he an honest man?
Paul seemed to recognize the meaning of it, but he couldn't help laughing. He was worried about breaking the rules, so he had to turn his head and smile.
Heather immediately realized the ambiguity in his words. He couldn't help laughing, but he quickly explained, "I don't mean that. I mean, you're more stable. You're always more relaxed in dealing with crisis situations. You can certainly succeed."
"That's it." Paul stood by, nodding his head solemnly in affirmation.
Lanli didn't say anything more. He just took a deep look at Heather, as if to say, "just keep talking nonsense, and see who will believe you." Heather knew that he should continue to explain, but looking at the appearance of blue ritual Tucao make complaints about it.
Originally, lanli wanted to make fun of Paul, and then let Heather have a good time, but he was caught. However, since we are going to have a good time today, it is also a rare and interesting thing to really let go of the shackles and enjoy it wantonly.
Lanli went to Paul and took the popcorn and coke one by one. After all, Paul's way of doing was not enough. He didn't hold back his smile, but he had to pretend to be serious and said with concern, "Heather and I can help you with these things..."
"No, I just want to take these things and divert the attention of the ticket collector." Lanli held everything in his arms, two barrels of popcorn, three barrels of coke, and a marshmallow. The whole person was crammed, "you put the movie tickets in the pocket behind my pants."
When it's ready, Lan Li looks at the two, "you act according to the circumstances." With that, Lan Li did not hesitate any more and strode toward the ticket gate.
Paul went around to the back of the wheelchair, holding the handle in both hands, and both of them were looking at the back of Langley.
In the middle of his walk, lanli began to step down, and the popcorn in his arms began to bump. It seemed that something was about to fall. Heather could not help exclaiming, but then he realized that lanli was intentional - even they thought lanli was really facing difficulties, let alone other people?
At this time, it was only two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still a weekday. There was no one in the cinema, so the ticket collector strode up to help. However, Lan Li laughed and expressed his thanks. Then he turned around and said something. The ticket collector looked at Lan Li's pants pocket.
Although both Paul and Heather are very curious about the follow-up development of the story, they know that the play can't be continued. So Paul pushes Heather's wheelchair and quickly walks around the back of the ticket collector. They can still hear the voice of the conversation
"... thank you very much. My friend was late and threw all the heavy work to me. I said not to buy popcorn. They bought it themselves, but they didn't want to..."
"Yes, yes, I know."
Heather couldn't help it. She burst into laughter and almost made a sound. Fortunately, she bit her lower lip tightly to avoid being found. Then Paul pushed her wheelchair and ran all the way around the ticket gate, across the corridor and soared.
