I smiled brightly at Marlon, but I was just about to take a step away when my mind went blank… my mom?
Who is my mother?
Where is my home?
My head suddenly hurt so much that I squatted on the ground and held my head so hard.
“What’s wrong with you?” Marlon came over to help me.
I covered my head with all my strength and said to Marlon in aggravation, “Marlon, my head hurts so much, I, I can’t remember my mother, I can’t remember where my home is, I …”
Suddenly, my eyes went black, and I knew nothing else.
Hospital.
I obviously feel like I have woken up, but I want to open my eyes but how can not open, I am suddenly a little uncertain, is it possible that I am actually dreaming, the TV said, when children have nightmares is to wake up but how can not wake up?
“Mr. Redford, this young lady is not in any serious condition. Her sudden coma is what I said before out of the extreme self-protection of the pre-conscious, in touch with similar or related memories, things, in order to prevent their own pain and pre-conscious choice of coma, so that no need to continue to think, but this young lady absolutely can not be subject to such stimulation, and then stimulated by the words will cause her a complete mental breakdown or permanent long sleep, either one of the consequences are serious! ”
“You’re saying she fainted this time because she touched a similar or related memory and fainted out of protection?”
“Yes Mr. Redford, but the lady is fine this time, but because she just had a miscarriage before, she is very weak and needs to recuperate well!”
“She had a miscarriage?”
“Yes Mr. Redford, just in the near future, so the young lady needs to recuperate well or she will have after-effects later!”
It was Marlon’s voice! Is Marlon in my dream, but I look around and it’s nothing but darkness, and I hate darkness.
Marlon!
I tried to shout, but no one answered me at all, except for the pitch black, and I was a little scared.
They say on TV that the big bad wolf will appear in the dark.
So, I was anxious to wake myself up, I didn’t like the darkness at all, even if it was a nightmare I didn’t want to meet the big bad wolf.
But I just couldn’t wake up.
“I got it! Get out!”
“Yes, Mr. Redford!”
Marlon, Marlon! I shouted more and more anxiously. I don’t know why I could hear Marlon’s voice, but I couldn’t wake up. In this darkness, I felt as if I had fallen into a hole and would be dropped dead at any moment.
“Rachael, what have you been through to become what you are now?”
Although I couldn’t hear what Marlon was saying, I felt that Marlon’s voice became sad. Could it be that Marlon was actually calling me to wake up and was not inside my dream?
I think it must be Marlon yelling at me to wake up!
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and I finally opened my eyes, and I saw Marlon standing in front of me. I heard Marlon’s voice. Marlon, did you see me having a nightmare and tried to wake me up?
Marlon’s face suddenly froze and his dark eyes looked at me in a complicated way, “You, just heard what we said?”
I nodded, but felt wrong and immediately shook my head again, “I did hear Marlon’s voice, but I couldn’t hear what you were saying Marlon, but I think Marlon must have been trying to wake me up, right”
Marlon stared at me, answered, and then said, “You rest here now!” And with that he turned to go.
The moment Marlon turned around I just felt suddenly scared, I couldn’t think much about it and rushed to jump out of bed and follow Marlon.
“You …” Marlon turned back.
I hurriedly took Marlon’s hand: “Marlon, where are you going? Don’t leave me alone, okay? I’ll go with you. I’ll be good, really, I’ll be good!”
Marlon looked down at his hand, which I was holding tightly, and his eyes lagged.
I felt more and more scared and promised, “Really, Marlon, I will not make any noise, I will be good and listen to you, really, Marlon, don’t leave me, okay?”
Marlon’s gaze flickered and flickered, finally landing on my feet, which were wearing nothing, and finally said, “Put your shoes on!”
I suddenly smiled brightly, “That means Marlon you’re taking me with you aren’t you?” I looked at Marlon with bright black eyes.
Marlon let out a soft sigh and said, “Yes!”
I jumped happily into Marlon’s arms and hugged him tightly, “Marlon you are so nice!”
Marlon’s tall body jolted, but I noticed nothing and happily turned to put on my shoes. Marlon stared at my crouching back, his eyes were more complicated than ever.
“Okay, Marlon!” I put on my shoes and stood obediently in front of Marlon.
Marlon looked down at my shoes, frowned, gave me a look, came over and squatted in front of me, “Sit down!”
I then sat down nicely and wiggled my two feet.
Marlon took off my flip-flops, which were upside down from side to side, and put them back on, before getting up.
I jumped off the bed with joy and took Marlon’s hand in mine.
Once again, Marlon was shaken hard and looked back at me.
I cocked my head and smiled at Marlon.
The afternoon sun cast in from the window, falling on my body, enveloping my entire being, against the light, making my smile shine, as if an angel from heaven.
Marlon was viciously shocked and flabbergasted for a moment, and finally said in a weak voice, “Let’s go!” But did not shake off my hand.
I was happy to hold Marlon’s palm tightly and followed Marlon. I didn’t know where Marlon was going, but following Marlon gave me somehow peace of mind.
The hospital corridor, walking on both sides of the doctors and nurses saw the scene in front of them were shocked, dumbfounded, staring at Marlon and I, with the statue general petrified not to move.
“This, how is this possible, how could Mr. Redford hold such an ordinary looking woman!”
“I, I’ve never seen a woman around Mr. Redford before, and, and looking like a fool!” The nurses stammered in shock.
As soon as I looked up, I saw all the big brothers and sisters around me looking at Marlon and I. I raised my smile and waved warmly to them, “Hello, brothers and sisters!”
“Surely there is something wrong with intelligence!”
“Really, and older siblings, as old as us, and actually older siblings, oh my God!” As soon as I opened my mouth, instantly the nurses around me lowered their voices and talked.
I looked at these brothers and sisters strangely, I couldn’t hear what they were saying, I only saw them whispering one by one, so I asked Marlon curiously, “Marlon, what are these brothers and sisters saying, are they talking about me?”
Marlon’s eyes coldly swept around, instantly all the people no longer dared to speak, respectfully lowered their heads, Marlon looked at me the moment, all the coldness on his face converged, softly said: “They are talking about work, let’s go!” He said and led me out.
I was happy every day, Marlon was with me every day, gave me lots of good food every day, and was obedient to me.
One day, he was peeling an apple for me. After I finished eating the apple, I saw that Marlon didn’t have any apples to eat, so I did what he did and tried to peel it for him. He tried to stop me, saying that I didn’t have to do this kind of thing for fear that I would get hurt, and I grinned and said that I wanted to thank Marlon and let him try it for me.
Sure enough he agreed and told me to be careful.
I struggled to finish peeling an apple and brought it to Marlon, who did smile happily, and then I also happily inserted that fruit knife into his heart and let his blood slowly flow out. Strangely enough, he didn’t yell or scream, he just looked at me quietly with a strange expression.
Before he died, his last words were, “I’m sorry, Rachael, I love you.”
I slowly wiped the fruit knife and left.
