"I'll go first. It's a rare weekend, so you should stop working and relax. By the way, maybe this afternoon, we will go for a ride in the Hudson River. We have finally found an opportunity to fulfill our previous promise. September is better than January. If you want to participate, go straight to the Pioneer Village. "

Half of the words said so, and the rest of the vacancy was not filled. Lan Li changed his shoes, grabbed the skateboard left behind the shoe rack at the door, carried a backpack and ran out. When Matthew looked back, the room was empty, but he had been used to it for a long time.

Step into the hall, looking at the box of albums placed on the tea table, raised his hand to pick up one and looked at it carefully.

This is Langley's handwriting, which Matthew can recognize at a glance. He carefully browses the list of songs on the back. He knows that the arrangement of songs in this way is meaningful, not for the sake of commercial considerations of the record companies, but according to the creative intention of lenley. Even the "a side" and "B side" of the album are meaningful. It's just that Matthew hasn't heard these songs, so he can't judge.

Thinking about it, Matthew unwrapped his album, went to the desk in front of the sofa, put the disc in the player, and pressed the play button. Then, sitting on the sofa, the turbulent and clear guitar string sound, is "Cleopatra". The light and moving melody, with poetic sadness and regret, burst out a charming halo in the jubilant music.

From "Cleopatra" to "beast", that's the first step on the road of dream; From "your bones" to "nothingness", that is the wanton and unrestrained life on the road; From a side to B side, that is the crazy cry of lonely soul.

The man in my memory, wearing a white shirt and riding a bicycle, was flying through the alleys and arch bridges of Cambridge College. The golden sunshine fell on the fluttering clothes, and the bright and gentle smile melted into the April breeze. Slowly, slowly, he opened his arms, and the wind was like a gurgling water. Then he opened his wings, Free to fly.

His eyes fell on the cover of Don Quixote's album again, and Matthew fell into meditation. Maybe George and Elizabeth never really understood their children. The significance of dreams to him is not the dream itself or life, but his soul, which defines the meaning of his existence; Perhaps, even he never really entered the colorful world.

The fingertips whirl and the lingering charm curls.

Matthew is beginning to like this album.

At this moment, on the other side of Manhattan Island, Mount Sinai Hospital is quiet. The sunshine in early autumn is peaceful and quiet, but the hustle and bustle of midsummer are not completely faded. There is a trace of joy in the silence. Lanli stepped on the skateboard and flew all the way. There was an emergency brake at the door of the hospital. He stepped on the end of the board with his right foot and grasped the skateboard in his hand. He walked in skillfully, greeting the familiar faces and walking towards the destination.

Originally, lanli was going to go directly to heather. Langley is not a high-profile personality, but he knows that Heather has always wanted his album and talked about it at least three times. Now, the album has finally come out. He doesn't intend to publicize it. Mount Sinai Hospital has a copy, but at least he can give one to heather. It was delivered at the first time today.

However, when passing by the stairwell, she saw Anne silyman sitting on the stairwell crying and alone, which made Langley's steps stop. She carefully pushed open the movable door of the stairwell and walked in quietly. "What's the matter? Who bullied the most lovely Anne in the world? Come and tell the devil that he will punish him instead of you. "

Annie raised her head and looked at Lan Li's ferocious smile. She broke her tears into a smile. She raised her chubby little hand and wiped the tears on her cheek. But her mouth still tooted and looked aggrieved.

Lanli sat down beside Annie and didn't say much. He just looked down at her. Annie immediately took the initiative to tell the whole story, "Langley, do you think Alex is going to die?"

Alex? Alex Ricky, the little boy with congenital heart disease, the little girl who has a crush on Kelly Barton.

Lanli was stunned. Annie pursed her mouth and tears fell down again. "If Alex dies, is it me next? Am I going to die, too? "

The childish children's words made Lan Li's nose sour. In their world, they begin to face life and death early, which many people can't understand in their life. Life is too cruel“ Annie, Annie, why do you say something happened to Alex? I haven't heard of that. "

When he just went upstairs, he met Kelly. Kelly didn't mention anything. She looked in a good mood. Langley thought it might be Annie's fault.

Annie raised her tearful eyes, tried to bite her mouth and hold back her tears. "But... But... Alex is going to enter that small room... Isn't everyone unable to get out after they go in? Johnson is like this, Alison is like this... "As she said this, Annie began to sob," Alex is going to be unable to get out... "She cried so sad that her words began to break up," am I going in and can't get out? "

The muddled words made Lan Li feel sad. He gently held Anne in his arms, raised his hand and gently patted her on the shoulder. The little girl buried her head in lanli's chest and cried heartily. The sad cry made lanli's eyes turn red.

"Annie, it's not like that." "That's the operating room. It was a room full of magic, in which doctors would perform magic. Some children were very kind and gentle, so they became angels to accompany God; Some children are very cheerful and actively face the disease, so they come back again and spread the magic effect to more people. "

Lanli knew that his explanation was very poor. He was a man of two generations, but he was defeated in front of the simplest problem of a child, and he was at a loss.

He doesn't know how to make children understand the problem of life and death, because they should be carefree, unrestrained or willful. If they miss it, they will never go back. But now, they are forced to face the problem that human beings can't see through all their lives.

Annie was stunned. She raised her head and bit her lower lip. Tears were still hanging on her long eyelashes. She hesitated for a moment, and then said, "lanli, will Alex come back?"

Lanli didn't know much about Alex's condition, but he knew that his congenital heart disease had been operated on several times, but it couldn't be repaired. The best choice was to transplant a matching heart. Lanli was not sure whether it was another operation or whether he had found a matching heart.

In the face of Annie's question, Langley could only say, "since Annie is so concerned about Alex, why don't you go and ask him directly? Then make him strong and come out quickly so that Annie and Alex can continue to grow up together. " Growing up together is a natural thing for many people, but it is a distant dream for them.

Annie did not answer, but thought for a while, "lanli, Annie is very cheerful, Annie is also very strong, Annie will come back again, right? Grandfather God already has many angels. Without Annie, he won't be sad, will he? "

Suddenly unable to defend the ground, Lan Li's eyes turned red slightly. He raised his head in embarrassment, and then laughed on purpose, "yes, I think so, too! Annie is the strongest of all the children I know, just like Alex

All of a sudden, lanli felt a small hand holding his hand. He lowered his head, and then he could see Annie's tender face, showing a brilliant smile again. "Lanli, let's go and cheer for Alex together!" Annie stood up and pulled lanli's arm. Lanli stood up and ran all the way to Alex's room.

At the door of the ward, Alex's parents are communicating with the doctor. Lanli and Annie's pace has slowed down a little. Alex's mother gave a smile to lenley, which were all familiar faces. "Come on in, Alex's friends are all in it."

Lan Li gently closed his jaw, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "today's operation?"

"A heart transplant." The gentle and elegant lady showed a happy smile. Just a word, her eyes began to turn red. She quickly raised her right hand, wiped off the tears on her cheek, and nodded shyly to Lan Li.

Lanli knew that Alex had been waiting for three years for this heart. Three years, it seems very short to say, but only when we really experience it, can we know how difficult, painful and suffering it was.

Langley said with a smile, "I wish it was just the beginning of good luck." Good luck will continue, along with the healthy growth of Alex.

Then, lanli and Annie enter the ward together. Alex is sitting on the bed, surrounded by seven or eight little friends, chatting and laughing.

Annie got rid of Langley's hand and ran all the way to Alex, shouting, "Alex, Alex, you must be strong! And bring the magic back, will you? "

Alex didn't know why, but he followed him blankly and said, "of course, of course, I'm sure I'll do magic!"

I saw Heather standing at the end of the bed with a smile on his face, full of hope and uncontrollable sadness. Seeing the appearance of lanli, Heather nodded. Without saying much, her eyes fell on Alex again.

Lanli quickly stepped forward, raised his right hand high, "tell me, who is the strongest, most handsome and most capable superhero in Mount Sinai Hospital!"

"Me! I don't know Alex tried his best to raise his right hand and collided with Langley's right hand in the air. PA, crisp sound, cheerful and vigorous.
