Miles woke up, but Nancy left. Lu Ke didn't understand what happened at all.
Since you can't find the answer, just let nature take its course. Now is not the best time to think calmly.
Lu Ke came back to the hospital bed and quietly looked at Miles' face that was bloodless due to pain. His tightly furrowed brows once again revealed the unimaginable torture and suffering. Even if he was just watching, he couldn't bear it. , Lu Ke couldn't imagine how Miles's parents persisted.
"Mom...Mom..." Miles murmured in a low voice, and tears fell from his closed eyes. This made Lu Ke at a loss again. He turned his head and looked at the door of the ward. He wanted to call Nancy. come back? Miles is looking for his mom now, isn't he?
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu He was in a ball, sobbing softly and muttering, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry...wuwuwu..."
"Miles? Miles, are you okay?" Lu Ke tried to suppress his anxiety and asked gently.
"I'm sorry, wuwuwu, I can't cry. Good children can't cry. Miles is the bravest. Miles can't cry." The childish voice said vaguely, but the crying couldn't stop at all. , crying so much that Lu Ke felt sad.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Ke squatted down next to the hospital bed, put his chin on the edge of the bed, and asked in a low voice, "Miles, do you need me to call mom over?"
"No... don't," Miles whimpered.
Lu Ke couldn't understand, "But... why?"
"I can't cry." Miles clenched his hands into fists and kept wiping the tears on his cheeks, but because he had no strength, he could hardly lift his hands. It seemed that every movement was so painful, "Because...because Every time I cry, my mother, my mother will be very sad. I saw my mother hiding in the kitchen and crying. I don’t want... I don’t want my mother to be sad for me. Miles wants to be a brave boy. Miles wants to be a spotted boy. Than the same hero, let mom stop being sad for me. Miles doesn’t feel pain. Miles doesn’t cry.”
Lu Ke was stunned and just froze on the spot.
Miles was worried that his mother would be sad, and even though he was in extreme pain, he still didn't want his mother to see it; while Nancy knew how strong Miles was, and she didn't want her son to see her fragility and suffering, even if she couldn't stop worrying. He still left the ward and even begged Lu Ke to stay.
Looking at the little bloodless face in front of him, Lu Ke turned his head away in embarrassment and quickly wiped the hot tears swirling in his eyes.
Although Miles admires superheroes, in Lu Ke's view, Miles is the real superhero. His fragility and strength make Lu Ke feel his own insignificance. Just like Ryan Baldwin, they use their own His persistence, fighting against the disease and fate step by step, proves with his own personal experience that even if the end of life is the same, everyone has the opportunity to interpret life in a different way.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Ke forced himself to calm down and whispered to Miles, "Miles, you know what? You are a very, very brave boy, definitely braver than me. Miles is like a superhero. , no matter what difficulties you encounter, you can defeat them, right? Because Miles is a warrior! Like Batman, even without superpowers, he can defeat evil warriors."
"Really?" Miles slowly opened his eyes and asked in a murmur. In the blur of tears, he saw Lu Ke nodding heavily in affirmation.
Miles was still sobbing a little. He was breathing heavily, trying to calm down, and asked with a choked voice, "Bambi, can I really not get sick again?"
Lu Ke was stunned for a moment, how should he answer this?
"Can I stop taking medicine in the future? Can I go to school like other children? Can I go to the yard to play with my brother by myself? Can I stop coming to the hospital? Bambi, can I not die? ? I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to leave my mother, and I don’t want to leave my father and brother. Can I not want to die? Bambi, can I not want to die? "
In those sobbing childish words, Lu Ke was defeated, and his whole heart was twisted.
They thought that the children knew nothing, but the children knew far more than they imagined. The complexity and pain of life and death also had powerful destructive power in the children's clean and pure eyes, but the children There is no heart as strong as theirs to bear the pain.
Looking at Miles in front of him, Lu Ke couldn't help but think of Ryan Baldwin again and the days when he was absent due to injury. Mixed emotions surged up and grabbed his throat, and all his words were lost. Turning pale, he didn't know how to answer Miles' question.
Of course, Lu Ke can use those adult tricks to fool Miles, or use chicken soup for the soul to perfuse Miles. This is not a difficult task. As long as he leaves this ward, it has nothing to do with Miles's life. He can easily put aside his psychological baggage and return to his life; but Lu Ke doesn't want to deceive this little guy, because he doesn't want to leave Miles behind, and he hopes to invite Miles to join the nine-person team. Join the ranks and become a true warrior, just like Ryan.
Lu Ke's eyes couldn't help but turn red, but he still took a deep breath to keep himself calm, then carefully raised his right hand and gently patted Miles' arm, "Miles, you know what? In this world, no one believes that I can become a quarterback, and no one believes that I can stand on the professional field, but there are only two exceptions, my father and my mother."
Miles' eyes widened, still full of tears, but his eyes were completely focused on Lu Ke, as if even the pain had slowly disappeared.
"They have never doubted my dreams and always stood behind me, facing all difficulties with me and giving me the strength to move forward. Even in the most difficult and darkest times, they never gave up and encouraged me. I continued to persevere, and then I continued to work hard step by step, and thus won support one after another. Now more and more people are willing to stand behind me and fight side by side, just like the red ocean at Candlestick Stadium. ." Today, Lu Ke's words were slower and firmer than ever before, pouring out his true thoughts bit by bit.
Miles's eyes brightened slightly, "Me too! I'm also a member of the red ocean!"
Lu Ke nodded heavily, "There is also Ryan Baldwin. It is precisely because of his existence that I understand the power of courage and the importance of faith. He allowed me to witness the golden ocean and also made me realize Yeah, maybe there are still some things in this world that we can’t overcome, but even those things can’t cut off our courage and belief!”
"You know? Every time I stand on the field of Candlestick Stadium, I will not be afraid, because I know that I am not fighting alone. As long as there is someone standing behind me, I will never be afraid." I will stop fighting! Not fighting for victory, but fighting for faith and dreams!"
After a pause, Lu Ke looked at Miles's eyes seriously. In those dark brown eyes, he could clearly see his own reflection. Now, he was lighting a fire in those pupils, and then I pray that this little spark will eventually start a prairie fire.
Lu Ke's eyes also burst out with a light of perseverance, as if he were standing on the court and transformed into a bloody Bambi, "Miles, you know? Your father, your mother, and you Your brothers, they will always stand behind you, no matter what happens, they will always stick to your side. They are your greatest strength to keep moving forward. One day, you will have more people on your side. Supporters, fight with you! You will never be alone!"
Death, this is the end of everyone's life, and the ending has been written long ago; but before reaching the end, the chapter of life is still blank, leaving everyone to write, the chapter belonging to Ryan Baldwin, short but gorgeous, The golden ocean that ignited this city, now, Lu Ke sincerely prays that the chapter belonging to Miles Scott can ignite the golden ocean again brightly and magnificently.
As never before, Lu Ke hopes that more people can join in the "Gotham Town Day" activities, letting Miles know that there are so many people standing behind him and that he is definitely not alone; and let Miles know that he is not alone; Every child who is suffering from the disease can believe that miracles exist. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, they should fight to the end.
For Miles, for every child who is tortured by fate, and for every ordinary person struggling in life, in this city and this land, everyone clenches their fists and shouts The ordinary people surrounding the "Nine People" all hugged each other tightly, igniting a ray of hope!
"Is it like Batman and you?" Miles's eyes shined brightly, his tone became brisk again, and he said full of hope.
Lu Ke nodded, "Yes, it's just like Batman and I. Do you know? Batman, I, and you all have one thing in common. What is that?"
"We are all warriors!" Miles clenched his immature fists and cheered.
"We are all warriors!" Lu Ke also roared in a low voice. Looking at Miles's bright smiling face, his belief became stronger bit by bit.
Standing outside the ward, Nancy covered her mouth tightly and burst into tears. A faint hope gradually brightened deep in her eyes: Yes, they are warriors, they are all warriors! A warrior who never gives up!
