But all this change seems to start from Maisie out of things, after waking up the whole person has become sensitive and suspicious, afraid of the wolf before and after the tiger, too many factors to consider.
Olive can also understand, after all, out of such a big thing, more or less have a psychological impact, if it were her, it is impossible to easily turn things over.
Maisie’s knuckles are white, she tightly clasped the edge of the bed, the whole body is some slight trembling.
Olive saw this scene and had an idea in her mind, in that case, why not just say the worst possible outcome, or better yet, go on day by day with anxiety.
“Then I think that you should just leave Ocan, so that you do not have to worry so much every day in, it is good for all of you. It’s no one’s fault if you pull out in time.”
Before everyone hoped that Maisie could go on well with Ocan, after all, people who love each other should be together in the first place. She heard only this one suggestion from the beginning to the end, since she still can’t decide now, why not stimulate her with another idea, maybe the answer she wants will appear naturally.
“How can that be! Are you kidding me? If I lose the existence of Ocan in my life, then what is the point of living! It’s something I can’t even think about!”
Maisie grabbed her collar with both hands and her eyes were red, it seemed that just hearing that was enough to make her heart ache into a ball, let alone talking about actually leaving.
Olive laughed out loud as she patted Maisie’s hand, gesturing for her to relax. See, the answer was obvious.
“Is it clear to you now? Do you know what you want in your heart? You see, you can’t accept being separated from him, so you have to be ready to do everything to be with him! If you go on like this, do you think you’re the only one who’s going to feel bad, Ocan will feel bad too.”
Olive’s words made Maisie a little unconscious for a while, but when she came to her senses, she understood the reasoning behind it, and a light smile appeared on her face.
But soon, the light on her face darkened again, Olive exhaled a long breath, how come she didn’t realize Maisie was such a torn person before.
“What’s wrong? If you have anything, just say it, I will help you analyze ah.”
Maisie looked up embarrassed and asked, “Olive, are you sure this is okay? Can I really go all the way with Ocan?”
Olive raised her hand and slapped her head, God, it was so difficult to convince Maisie, I thought she had already understood, but I didn’t think it was just a moment of excitement.
Olive was about to say something when Maisie got up one step faster. She looked Olive in the eyes and said seriously, “Let me tell you the story of Ocan and me, and you will understand why I am so hesitant. I believe that you will understand me after listening to it.”
Olive was already a very curious person, besides, girls like to gossip, but before Maisie closed her mouth, Olive will not deliberately ask, after all, digging into other people’s private affairs is not a good habit, now Maisie is willing to take the initiative to tell, Olive naturally want to listen to some.
“Okay, you are willing to be the narrator, I am willing to be the listener. After listening, I will help you analyze.”
Maisie was quiet at this point, her hands squeezing the corners of the quilt, caught up in the memories of the past, and to make a long story short, everything has to be told from the beginning.
“I’ve loved acting since I was a kid, learning all kinds of bridges from TV shows. Although the family conditions are not good, but my parents have always loved me, will be carefully in my hands, as precious. Even if they were not well-off or even strapped for cash, they never denied the dream in my heart, but instead gave me unlimited support.”
“Take me to participate in competitions and performances around the country, give me a lot of affirmation.”
Speaking of this, Olive’s heart tightened, seeing Maisie with tears in her eyes already, probably thinking of her family.
“The year of the college entrance exams, I succeeded in getting into a university, at that time I was a college student in our whole street, unlike nowadays, ten out of ten people are college students. So I am the pride of the whole street, but also the pride of my parents. But to their disappointment, I still chose to major in acting, but they are still behind me all the time.”
“You should also know that the path of an art student is not a good one, and it also costs a lot of money, but my family is just an ordinary family, and for my parents, the tuition fees and the usual living expenses have exceeded their daily expenses.”
“Looking at my parents’ hair gradually graying, my heart is especially bad, I hope that time can pass faster, and when I graduate and become a big star, I will bring them to eat and drink, and live a good life.”
Olive as a qualified listener, that is to maintain absolute silence during the other party’s speech, Maisie every finished a paragraph will stop and choke for a while, this time Olive will pass a look, indicating that in listening.
“However I thought it was all too naive, the entertainment industry is not that good at all, and not something that an ordinary person like me can just step into. But since I chose this path from the beginning, and my parents have paid a lot for it, I naturally will not give up easily, that is my dream for most of my life.”
“I went to run in the crew, to play underhand, to the director and actors to serve tea and water, all the things I can do, but the monthly salary can not even support the usual living expenses, not to mention what free money to pay respect to Mom and Dad.”
“The days lasted for about half a year, my parents would call me every month to ask if I had enough money on me, and from time to time they would play a little to my card, and I felt like a waste of life in those days, no time to go home, and no money to subsidize the family. I was lying in bed in my rented room every night, losing sleep all night long.”
The smile on Maisie’s face was tinged with sarcasm, still vivid after all these years of mentioning it.
“Do you know what I was holding on to at the time? I always felt that if I worked hard enough, I would have the day to shine. I always felt I was a thousand-horse, just waiting for my uncle to come. But all of that was defeated by reality. That afternoon I just returned home from the set, I received a call from my father, saying that my mother was admitted to the hospital and the doctor gave a notice of critical illness.”
“My mom has been so worried about me and my dad all these years, and I was so heartbroken to hear the news that if we didn’t hurry up with the treatment, we might not have much time left.”
Maisie sighed, closed her eyes, tears seeped out of the corners of her eyes, soon, she sucked her nose and said, “My mom was overworked for years, her physical problems all broke out at once, the treatment at that time required a large amount of money, but our family could not get any money.”
