- So that's how it is.
That's it. That's it.I sorted out my confusion, tried to calm down and asked:- Why did you come here to tell this story?- I want to review the treatment notes.I was angry in my heart, I didn't watch it then, what's the point of watching it now?- It's been five years. All have been destroyed.He was stunned for a moment, trying to continue:- Or do you search a little, maybe there is still something left?- There's nothing left. - I said ironically, looking at his slowly sinking face.Finally he politely said a few words to me and left.I leaned back in my chair, rubbed my temples, and closed my eyes in annoyance.
The curtains fluttered open again.What happened in the past, why is it still as clear as it was recently?- Doctor, the second wish is a bit wild...
- She said go.- All medical records about me, give me.Really all? – Looking at the notebook, the recording pen on the table, she asked. Seeing me nod, she smiled bitterly:- A whole life, but only these few pages. – Then she put everything in the sink, flooded with water. In a panic, I asked:- What do you do?- Doctor, you gave it to me, let me go.I stared blankly at the smudged pages in ink. But she still didn't see enough, continued to wring it out like a towel, twisting it to shreds.- I think it's okay. In the accident that day, I didn't think I could survive, moreover, my last wish was to make him happy. Now consider that I have died in an accident, and she is the person he loves later, I know that he is happy, and it is also considered satisfied. Now everyone is willing, don't keep anything in your heart, just forget it. My story never needs to be repeated, okay?- ...- Doctor?- Is that the third condition?- Yes, it's the last one.- Okay.- Forget it, thank you, goodbye.I opened my eyes, watching the darkness gradually creep into the sky in front of me, feeling a little unstable.
- Coc! Coc! There were two knocks on the door, along with my name being called. I softly said:The door isn't locked, come in.- The person who just left was your patient? Is he okay? – As soon as Murakami entered, he asked. I am a bit uneasy asking:- What happened, what happened?- It's okay, because he's your old patient, I just wanted to ask about it.- When are you? What's wrong with him? – I relaxed the questioner.- About six years ago, melancholy was quite severe, prone to depression. His wife was in a deep coma for three months after the accident when he couldn't bear to go to the clinic. Six months later, I had to go abroad to exchange, remember, at that time I also brought the documents to you, but he said he would not come anymore. Why is he here now?- Nothing, not sick, just ask me something.- I guess so. The mood was much better than the unfinished life form, dying could not make others want to be melancholy at that time. I don't know if his wife is still there?- Woke up from an accident.- That's too good. – He said, hearing the phone ring across the room, patted me on the shoulder and left.I didn't tell him, she survived the accident, but not the disaster.Not anymore.I couldn't help but open the file on my computer, go to the "2014" folder to find a name, click open. A voice very hoarse, seemingly powerless resounded:“It was the tenth year we met. She's been with me for ten years. How many ten years are there in a person's life? But that day, the moment the wheels screeched to cling to the road, when everything in front of her eyes was spinning, she jumped up and hugged me tightly, wanting to spend all the remaining years on her body. I. In that infinitely long moment, like a living shield, the frail body wrapped itself above me, buckling down to take in the countless shards of broken glass that ferociously ravaged space. Don't let go of your hand until the car comes to a stop. The horror passed, when she fell to her knees on my shoulder, a liquid that wasn't clear whether it was blood or cold sweat soaked her whole body, half awake and half asleep. However, as soon as she was held in my arms, she still smiled when she saw me. Not aware of the pain, just realizing the moment of separation, still smiling like that, ten years unchanged, no resentment, no regrets, no problems, just like the beginning, such a gentle heart. She said to me, "Be happy", a sentence as light as a feather, and then passed out. I was in pain, I couldn't breathe. What should I do to…”
I quickly turned it off, unable to hear any more choked, trembling voice that made the listener feel equally heavy. He was really suffering.I have two mixed emotions in my heart. Sad for her. Sad for him.Well, there's also grief for them.But, it doesn't make any sense anymore.It's been a long time, and it's still lingering in my heart.I think, today he suddenly came here, certainly not without reason.Again, without warning, a malicious gloom arose in his heart.The person who can misunderstand the girl who has loved him for ten years, can't really make me completely pity. Maybe he just wanted to ease his guilt, make up for that girl, and didn't really care who she was. Ten years of not turning back is wrong, but turning back later is even more wrong.Forgive me for my narrow-mindedness, Erin. I was content she wouldn't tell. Thing…tell him, make him suffer to death,or not tell him, let him live his whole life in that fake happiness,It's all a punishment.The punishment he deserves.***- Erin… Lewis... – The typing hand finally stopped and said:- Oh, I see, you used to use our clinic five years ago, right?- There was a Ruo Fan used.- Huh?The same face sat in the sunlight, but I knew it wasn't her.
- Who are you again? - I said coldly.- I don't know what she told you, but I'm Erin Lewis.- You have heard her story, just listen to my story to be objective.When I heard her say that, I suddenly remembered the old conversation between me and that man."I've heard the other girl's story, you should also listen to this girl's story to be able to make an objective judgment..."I understand how he felt then. No need to be objective. There's really no need to be objective. Objective consideration is only necessary when the balance in the heart has not been decided yet.But I still let her tell. Maybe, just to listen to that voice a little longer."I love him. Clinging for five years, being married for five years is a full ten years, until the accident happened, I was still alone.After opening my eyes, I realized that I was lost in a desert.I wandered in that wilderness for a long time.I knew that I was coming to the end of my life. But I don't want to leave him, and I don't want to leave in a situation like this.Actually, at that moment, when I received that broken glass, I thought, dying in the arms of the person you love is also a kind of happiness. But the deeper I went into the wilderness, the more I understood, if I died for him, he would probably suffer for the rest of his life. I don't want to leave him, and I don't want to be a burden in the heart of the person I love.So when a demon's voice came up from the ground, asking me to exchange half of my existence for return, I did not hesitate to agree. At that time, I wondered to myself, why should I take half of the life span of a person who should have lost his life
- I just don't understand, what is it that incited her, to turn me off to kill me?He must have hidden the existence of the other fetus from her, I thought to myself, if she knew, how perfect would the story be?She guessed correctly, she did not know the existence of the fetus, so she murdered her own child. I suddenly had the malicious thought to let her know, to see a little bit of her true feelings, if she had any.But at that moment, I suddenly remembered the cry that echoed the first night I met her. So it was she who cried. Even though the other fetus belonged to the person she loved with the personality that had taken over her body, in her deepest sleep, she still cried with such heartbreaking pain. I had a bit of a lump in my throat, had to tilt my head to adjust my emotions. Unexpectedly when I looked up, I suddenly realized that she was looking up at me. I don't know what my expression was at that time, but she seemed surprised. Perhaps I am expressing irony, or profoundne
I once had a very scary dream, like a movie, about a world with shape-shifting creatures, mingling with the people around us. I don't remember the details, only the last scene, in the night, when humanity somehow lured all those creatures into an old school and set fire to destruction. I was finally forced to choose the younger brother out of two identical children and then hugged him and ran back to the assembly point. After that life gradually returned to normal, the family was happy and warm, but I will forever remember the child left in the sea of fire, his last look and tear, forever wondering whether the choice is correct.Waking up to realize, I never had a brother.- Helia, you should look at this file. A man in white with a handsome face, but unfortunately wearing a serious look beyond his age, put a file on my desk. I opened it up, it was a very thin girl.- Is it your patient? What happen?- Are you familiar?- No, what's wrong?- Take a closer look.- Not really famili
It was a rainy day. The road is wet and cold.I walked down the street with my cano, looking at the dry roots of despair that surrounded them.There is no one who does not have, more or less, no matter what expression they are showing on their faces, happy or sad, laughing or crying. It turned out that the desperate race had quietly taken over the world. It turned out that we weren't the only ones who had to suffer and despair. Turns out, we're all Tree People.Tree Man? Why do you remember this word?Ah, come to think of it, I saw that word on a TV news report about rare diseases. There was a man who was turned into a Treeman after a knee surgery. I still remember the look of him, from the elbows out, all over his feet were rough, dry, rough bark; On his knees, on his neck, and on his face, there were spots and cracks like hollow hollows of a tree. At that time, I thought, maybe like petrified warriors when meeting Medusa's eyes, he was cursed by some witch, gradually turning into a
It is a sad story. When that girl opened her eyes again, I saw nothing but emptiness. There was not a single tear. There seemed to be a barren pit inside her. Used to be helpless. Used to be painful. But the emotions were exhausted.- There is no Tung Bach. There is no such person in this world, nor is there such a Thanh Dang.- I know. This world does not exist. So this world is not real.- You always say my other memories are fake, due to the trauma caused by the accident. Did you ever think that this world could also be a fake, created by my brain after the injury from the accident to convince me that Tung Bach had never come to my world, like that, never left my world. go, and should I go on living or not?You never thought that, did you? Because this is the world you've lived in ever since, without a doubt, and I'm just a person falling from the sky who suddenly came to say, this world is fake.But, you know what, I would feel the same way. A world that I've lived in all my life,
We rushed to the terrace, no. Divided to look everywhere, also did not find.- Helia, go down, don't look anymore.- What do you mean? – I seemed to have no strength left to speak, leaning slightly against the wall.- Not that. She's down.- We saw the extracted camera, she left the building, took a MaLin taxi, went on. We are contacting that party to ask.- So many cars, know when to find...People stood by the roadside waiting for the phone. It was getting dark, the street lights were starting to turn on, the mood was getting more and more gloomy.I accidentally looked at the big clock hanging in the store opposite, turned to say to the person next to me:- You go first.- ...- Here with me and everyone looking for it, without her, the market is still crowded, you can rest assured.Hurry up, don't wait any longer! I pushed him into the driver's seat.Ring Ring! The phone rang, I quickly picked it up.- Baby, are you coming back soon? My friend has been waiting for my meal.- I have
Smoke. Suddenly there was a lot of smoke. Gray and white smoke rose from nowhere, covering every corner of my world.From my nose, mouth, ears, smoke wriggled into my chest, like an army of foreign invaders violently expelling the air in my body, compressing the internal organs, constantly expanding the territory. I was like a balloon doll that was constantly being pumped with smoke, inflated into a gray mass.Just as I was about to explode, an invisible force shoved me forward.I dashed into a cold granite wall, hurried after it, running aimlessly for my life.Then in the distance I saw a gap of light. I walked over and pushed the door open.And I woke up in a white hospital bed.I hissed. A fierce cough came like a bombardment of the pharynx, the intestines and liver seemed to be pulled back. A nurse came up to me, lifted my chin, sprayed me, and instructed me to calm my breathing.Someone told me it was after the car accident.And that I was in a coma in a hospital bed for a year.
I looked up at the clear blue sky, and the thin clouds drifted by. Turns out my sky is no different from their sky.Stepping off the bus, I walked slowly. This road I have passed many times but have never walked, nor have ever looked. A gust of wind blew with a yellow rain and soft falling sounds. A few tiny leaves landed on my shirt. I looked up, the rows of tamarind on both sides of the road were in fruit season. I bent down to pick up the healthiest of the fallen fruit on the cobblestone pavement, with a crunch that peeled off the skin, blinked and popped it into my mouth. The sweet and sour taste of ripe fruit on the branch blends on the tip of the tongue, the beauty of the world.Seeing a strange uncle watering his plants naked with a snake-skin faucet, a sense of disappointment gripped my heart.I stood in front of that person's house, the house was still the same, silent and silent behind the red brick wall. I rang the bell. Unlike the last time, after only two rings, someone o
“This lamp, some people say it is a wish-fulfilling magic lamp, others say it is just an old, useless lamp. Miracle or not, is from the heart of each person.”The magic lamp was inherently a fantasy. And yet this person didn't even add any magic to convince people to buy.It's even more absurd that I bought it. Rubbing all sorts of things doesn't make any move, it's a scam. In times of dire straits, people do illogical things. Not because of faith, just because of hope. Clinging to hope, even if it's something illusory, is better than despair.I stared blankly out of the old glass window in front of me, at the branches that protruded from my withered body.The bell woke me up from my wandering thoughts. It's time now.I walked down the street with my cano, looking at the dry roots of despair that surrounded them.There is no one who does not have, more or less, no matter what expression they are showing on their faces, happy or sad, laughi
The first time I smelled it, I thought it was a pleasant scent. A soft, warm, pungent, slightly acidic scent that drifts in the wind. It is unlike any perfume in the world, very natural, easy to make people relax, also very familiar.Maybe it was the scent of the Rain God. Every time it rains, that scent comes. On the street, in the supermarket, in the bookstore, in the coffee shop, at home, that gentle scent pervades every corner of my world.But on a white rainy day, when icy water molecules wafting through the air amplified that scent, it started to make me feel uneasy. On the old stone stairs, in the midst of a crowd of colorful umbrellas, as soon as that very light scent passed, I was pushed back by a hand. That hand was very hot. I tumbled downhill. I hugged my head and rolled on each slick, sharp, cold, visceral visceral like being crushed by a roller, and in the afterglow, I still saw that red umbrella upstream, quickly leaving my sight. . My head is buzzing every
I am Donald. Because of this name, I often dream that I transform into a duck wearing a blue sailor shirt and no pants. Coincidentally, the dream of not wearing pants represents deep shame, deep hurt, or subconscious anxiety. Does this coincidence mean anything?I am Donald. I am a psychiatrist. I have a secret that seems to be turning me into a psychopath. It all started when someone contacted me who wanted to buy the old house my family lived in until I was five years old, before moving to the big city. Both of my parents had gone abroad to attend conferences, and I was reluctant to take the responsibility of showing people the house. I opened the gate, looked at the garden, hired a plumber to clean and decorate a bit first, it didn't look too bad.I was very afraid of this house, never returned, but every few years I dream that I unconsciously walk in in the mist and enter. The yellow oil lamp flickered overhead, swaying back and forth, causing a long shadow to fall

Okay, I count from five to one, wake up.Five…Four…Three…Two…One…Cup.I opened my eyes again and was met with bright hazel eyes. It took a few seconds to remember that he wasn't Rio, or at least, not the genius scientist Rio. He is a psychologist who commented that I should see a doctor in my Reddit post, who told my story to Thang, and co-ordinator of treatment. It seems that they are still very close, before he vehemently accused me of intentionally killing Thang (I don't have any memory of it, only heard from them), but now he is trying to convince convince the police that a mental patient like me would not be held criminally responsible by my full treatment notes and numerous recordings. Obviously, Thang had secretly recorded it. Every moment he and I are together. Even though I knew it, I was still a little flustered. Oh, medical. Neurologist, psychiatrist, psychologist. Their academic network is huge. Big but tight.Rio got into some trouble for no
I'm standing in front of the big screen. The picture of a small family in it is so cozy. Yesterday was the child's birthday, the whole family of three were gathering to blow out the candles.Miss my parents so much.Suddenly, not the time, but my mind only had that thought, miss my parents so much.Remember the gentle eyes, the warm voice, the loving arms. Remember the mushroom porridge, remember the custard, remember the hot meals, remember the potato buried in the corner of the kitchen. Remember the busy days harvesting potatoes, cutting banana flowers, feeding the geese, washing the pigsty, remembering the nights when we gathered under the lights to clean the rice tray, watch TV together, I would clean their ears and pull out their gray hair. Human life is indeed a chain of devaluation, when… but no, it's not true, it's because people never know enough. When in the wagon, I could not feel the speed of the car. When you are in happiness, you never know how happy you are.
And then I stood up, my throat still with the feeling of being plowed through by the flames.What caught my eye was a pair of hazel eyes with rays so clear that they could see through the eyes of the other person and read all the emotions in them, sucking their souls. But I was not surprised. In these eyes I felt a strange sense of familiarity and security.- Ria, did you sleep well? - The owner of the eyes said, the corners of his lips curved up very slightly. I don't know who he is, but I know I used to know him. I've known him for a long time.He was surprised to hear that I didn't remember anything, but it was very mild. He said it was only temporary amnesia due to the D.E system having a slight bump while I was entering the virtual world, and we will wait two weeks to see if the situation improves.Virtual world, a phrase as light as a feather.My sadness, my confusion, my panic, my inner torment, just summed it up. Not paranoid, but virtual. - So before
I don't know how long it's been, but I've come to my senses. By the call of parents.I raised my head, saw my parents running over, didn't need to find out the situation, but hugged me and said it's okay, my parents are here. Then all three of us burst into tears.I don't know how long I was stunned by that thesis, because it took me a day and night by train to go through many stops. I also don't know which side suggested that my parents stay in the hospital to take care of me. My mother cooks mushroom porridge, and my father makes young chicken custard for me. The two of them kept regretting that they were in a hurry to bring me home food, and lamented that the quality of vegetables and meat in this city was terrible, no wonder I was getting thinner and thinner outside. It's not the right time, but I'm happy. How happy it feels to be a child protected by parents again.Rainy days still cover this city. This hospital is quite old. Everywhere there was an old musty t
When I woke up, I saw Thang sitting by the bed. I slept for a few hours and broke my right arm, my head was bandaged, my body was scratched. Someone nice took my phone to the nearest number, but was not kind enough to return my belongings. Or it's two different people.I feel guilty for bothering you, and even more guilty when I can't help but bother. My phone and bank card are both lost, my parents forgot, and I don't have any closer friends. It's awful.In the afternoon, I borrowed Thang's phone to arrange work and call my parents. Same question, same answer, same advice.- Do you mind if I don't tell my parents about the accident and leave you here to take care of me? - I ask.- I will too. Far away. – Thang replied.Turns out it wasn't just me. Maybe the young people far from home are all like that? We talk every day, but don't mention important things, so we can't say anything new but side questions and small jokes, hide sad stories with half-false and half-true
