Everyone has his own monster deep in his heart. There are adults and children. Many times, adults always laugh at children, "What's there to be afraid of?" Because of their maturity and wisdom, they also have their own monsters. Because of their own experience and resume, they often laugh at children's monsters for being too naive; but adults forget that when they were children, they were also afraid of the same things. More importantly, even as adults, they are afraid of the same things. Some monsters will never disappear, just squatting in the darkness, waiting for a fatal moment of slack.
Even the most insignificant monster is an insurmountable target in some people's world.
But compared to the monster itself, how to face the monster is the decisive factor in life and future, just like character determines destiny. There is no right or wrong, only your own choice. Everyone has their own way of facing monsters, but there is no distinction between adults and children at this time, because everyone has their own battle to complete, and there are different battles at different stages of life, and no one can replace them.
It's just that some people's battles are more difficult, like Ryan Baldwin and Miles Scott. Their hard battles even make people wonder if this is a joke of God; but no one can find the answer. , similarly, no one can complete the battle on their behalf.
Now, Miles asked a question to his hero. He hoped that he could find a chance to persist in this battle and even win; slowly, Miles raised his head and looked at it with his peripheral vision. Lu Ke was vaguely looking forward to it: Even his superhero was afraid of something?
Lu Ke seemed to understand Miles's eyes, and he gave a silly smile, "Miles, you know? I used to be very, very afraid of beds."
bed? Why?
"Every night after turning off the lights, I always imagine that there might be monsters under the bed. It seems that as long as I close my eyes, they will come out and eat me." Lu Ke's lifelike tone made Miles slowly raise his head. , looking at Lu Ke with all his attention, the corners of his mouth could not help but slightly raised.
"At first, I always begged my mother not to turn off the lights; but then I realized that if I didn't defeat the monster, the fear would never go away. So, I took the initiative to turn off the desk lamp, and then held a flashlight and forced myself to Look under the bed, trying to find the shadow of the monster."
The vivid description and lifelike expression made Miles completely immersed in it. He even couldn't help interrupting Lu Ke's words and asked excitedly, "Then have you found it?" His expression was even a little nervous, It seems that he is worried that Lu Ke will confront the monster head-on.
"No." Lu Ke didn't show off and said with all his heart. "When I used the flashlight to look under the bed, I found nothing. Everything was just me scaring myself."
"But at the beginning, I still didn't believe it. I thought it might just be that the monster was not there that day, so I decided to take the initiative and catch the monster. I made sudden attacks every now and then, hoping to find the monster under the bed. Unfortunately, I never found it. Success, and then I finally believed that the monster under the bed did not exist until I watched a cartoon called 'Monsters University', and then I realized that the monster was hiding in the closet."
The ups and downs of Lu Ke's story made Miles laugh happily - the monster under the bed, isn't this every child's childhood nightmare? Even a nightmare for many adults. However, how many people can muster the courage to uncover the mystery of the monster?
Miles completely empathizes with Lu Ke's story, and he still suspects that there is a giant hairy monster hidden under his bed.
Miles was about to share his story with Lu Ke, but because he laughed so hard, he coughed violently again. Then a burst of severe pain caused his body to convulse, and Miles's little body completely curled up into a The appearance of the little shrimp and the tangled cheeks clearly showed the unbearable pain. Even if you were just watching, you could deeply feel the pain that was like soul tearing coming from you.
"Miles? Miles, are you okay?" Lu Ke was a little confused. He had no idea what was going on and how to deal with it. "Nurse? Mom? Do you need me to find someone for help?" Panic Among them, Lu Ke's only thought was to ask for help.
"No." Miles' weak voice came out mixed with a painful groan. Lu Ke's first reaction was that he was hallucinating, but then Miles held on tightly. The small palm of Lu Ke's right hand curled up due to the severe pain, which made Lu Ke's right hand hurt slightly. "No. No, no, no. No nurse. No mother. No." Miles exhausted his last words. A trace of energy kept repeating.
Lu Ke panicked, "Okay, okay, no." He sat on the edge of the bed like a fool, at a loss, "Miles, how can I help you, Miles?"
"I hurt so much. I really, really hurt, mom, mom, I hurt so much." Miles seemed to be in a trance, just curling up on the hospital bed and calling in a low voice, one weak and weak call after another, Like a newborn kitten, Lu Ke's whole heart curled up.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Miles' entire little face was pale and pale with no blood at all, and he loosened his grip on Lu Ke's right hand. Lu Ke didn't hesitate anymore, turned around and left the ward, and quickly replaced the nurse and Miles's parents. The uncontrollable panic and confusion made Lu Ke look like a fool, but at this time it was already He couldn't care less, he just hoped that Miles would be fine.
In an instant, the ward became busy, but orderly in the chaos. Compared to Lu Ke's panic, the nurses immediately started checking and handling things in a familiar manner. Even Miles's parents seemed relatively calm.
"Bambi, don't worry." Miles' mother Nancy-Scott (Nancy-Scott) comforted him in turn, "This is just...just some normal reactions. After each treatment, Miles Sid will, um... experience some pain, and his physical condition will be very weak, and those pains will be magnified, but, as long as you get through it, everything will be fine."
Although Nancy tried hard to remain calm, her slightly trembling voice betrayed her pain and suffering.
Lu Ke was stunned: he had been diagnosed since he was an 18-month-old baby and had to receive treatment every month. Until now, he could not imagine how much pain Miles had gone through, let alone how much pain this family had experienced. How much torture he endured. This is all really cruel, "You mean, is it like this every time?"
Lu Ke realized that he had asked a stupid question.
But Nancy didn't care at all. Lu Chi gave a strong smile, "Sometimes it's better, sometimes it's worse, because his physical condition is always changing. If possible, I would rather bear it myself..." The voice Being cut off like this, Nancy took a deep breath, "But everything is over, and today is the last treatment. What follows is a long observation period. If the cancer cells will not grow again, then Miles You can live like a normal child, if it doesn't relapse."
Lu Ke once again found that he was so stupid. He couldn't find the right words to comfort Nancy. Those chicken soups for the soul such as "everything will be fine" were of no help at all. Only by truly experiencing the painful process personally, Only then can we understand how perfunctory and hurtful this sentence is.
"You know? Miles is a warrior and a hero. You know he will fight to the end, right?" Lu Ke said firmly, but found that his voice began to tremble slightly.
Nancy rubbed her slightly red eyes, then showed a big smile, "Of course! Definitely!"
After the normal examination, the doctor confirmed that Miles was fine and just needed to rest. When the doctors and nurses left the ward, Lu Ke also expressed his intention to say goodbye. He did not want his presence to affect Miles's health. Rest, that was not his original intention.
"Don't worry, really, I'm serious." Nancy waved her hands repeatedly to emphasize her attitude, "Believe me, Miles is really, really happy to see you. You and Batman are his superheroes. , it is the best gift for him that you can appear here. If it will not delay daily training, I sincerely hope that you can continue to stay..."
"Don't worry about training." Lu Ke took over, "I'm just worried that it would be too bad if I disturbed Miles' rest."
"It's okay, at least you can stay and say goodbye to him." Nancy looked at Lu Ke with eager anticipation and even some sincerity.
Lu Ke did not continue to decline politely, "Then I will wait for Miles to wake up, say goodbye, and then leave."
Nancy stepped forward and gave Lu Ke a big hug, and said sincerely, "Thank you, really thank you. I know that now is the busiest time of the season, and it is the best that you can make a special trip to visit Miles. It’s a Thanksgiving gift.” As she spoke, Nancy’s voice became choked up.
The two of them chatted politely for a while, and then they could hear Miles seeming to wake up. Unexpectedly, Nancy wanted to leave in a panic, which made Lu Ke confused again - from Miles to Nancy, there are really many unsolved mysteries, and Lu Ke has no idea what happened.
But Nancy had no time to explain. She said hello in a hurry, then left the ward and closed the door again. Then only Lu Ke and Miles were left in the noisy room again.
What's going on? Everything happened too fast, and the turns were too sharp. Lu Ke felt that his thoughts could not keep up with the pace of development. Before he could react, he had to face Miles alone again.
