Renly was telling the truth, and he really didn't care about Thor. In the last life, the role of Thor was originally in the hands of Chris; moreover, he also decided to reject the script of "Thor" early on. If Chris asked, he would not mind sharing the script at all.

The real disappointment for Renly was Chris. He thought they were friends.

Maybe not best friends, but at least they should be ordinary friends. They didn't get along as roommates for a long time, but the two got along very well and never had any conflicts. The division of labor and cooperation in daily life was also negotiable; in other words, they were more familiar than ordinary friends. Roommates under the same roof, and roommates with the same dream of being an actor. At least, it shouldn't be a stranger.

Although he has lived in two worlds, he really has little experience in dealing with people.

In the last life, I spent the first half of my life focusing on my mother's schedule, even planning the time to go to the toilet, not to mention meeting new friends; the second half of my life was spent in the hospital bed/on the bed, and the only chance to meet friends was The patients in the hospital bed next door watched them come and go, and he was the only one who stayed where he was.

Friend is not an unfamiliar word to Renly, but it is always fresh. Perhaps, compared to the heat of love and the purity of family affection, friendship seems to have more politeness and alienation, but friendship is an eternal haven, accompanying everyone through different stages of life, from birth to death, not far from Nearly waiting for the distance, but never left.

He thought he and Chris were friends, but obviously, he was wrong.

Perhaps, in Vanity Fair, friendship is different after all.

After leaving the house, Renly had planned to go to the supermarket to find a corner and sit, but then he realized that what he needed now was not a quiet moment that belonged to one person. So, he came all the way to Mount Sinai Hospital.

Many people don't like the hospital, and neither does Renly, but in fact, after getting used to the ups and downs of life and death in the hospital, you can feel the peace that belongs here, because this is a place where miracles occur.

It is true that there is always the end of life, but at the same time the birth of new life; it is true that there is always hope that is destroyed, but at the same time hope is born. Compared with the darkness, Renly always prefers the sunshine in the hospital. It is thin but warm. It can make people happy that they are still healthy, that they have escaped the scythe of death, and they can continue to hope for tomorrow. .

As soon as I entered the inpatient building, the sound of playful sounds roared past, and a group of little guys babbled and ran towards the backyard, "Renly!", "Hey, man", "Big Handsome guy"... The children greeted Renly who didn't have time to come in.

"Catherine!" "George!" "Oh, isn't that Stephanie?" "Eric, you look taller!" "Alix, slow down, slow down, don't run too fast."

Renly squatted down and raised his hands high. The children automatically slapped his palms when they passed by. Renly could accurately call out the names of every child, greet everyone cheerfully and smile. Involuntarily, he climbed up the corner of his mouth, "Hey, look who this is? A stranger?" When he saw the new face, Renly still greeted him with a smile, his brisk tone cheering in the setting sun. on.

"Anita? What's going on?" Behind the children, head nurse Anita Tunissa also took small steps to keep up with the team. Renly stopped her quickly and asked.

Anita grabbed Renly's arm and greeted him to go with him, "Group chorus time, let's go outside today, hurry up, hurry up and join us." Anita had a bright smile on her face, "You came at just the right time, The guitar will be handed over to you, and we were worried just now that Kelly is not the best person."

Renly followed in his footsteps subconsciously, and after hearing the explanation, he pointed in the direction of the elevator, "You go first, I'll visit Heather upstairs, and then join you."

Mount Sinai is a children's hospital. Every once in a while, children will be gathered together, or to celebrate festivals, or to play in groups, or to do outdoor activities, to bring laughter to the children as much as possible, and hope that the disease will not be linked. Their childhood is also deprived.

However, there are still some children who are unable to participate in these activities. In addition to those who need to live in aggravation wards, there are also many children like Heather Cross who are not physically allowed. In this case, after consulting the doctor, parents will push their children in wheelchairs to join the group.

Renly wasn't sure about Heather's current condition and whether he was willing to go downstairs to join the event, so he needed to go upstairs to confirm.

"Cross and his wife are here. They pushed Heather to the backyard just now." Anita explained it simply and quickly. Renly suddenly realized that she did not continue to refuse, and followed the children's footsteps and walked out together.

The setting sun on the horizon is still burning brightly, and the entire courtyard is illuminated in bright orange red. The children’s laughter and laughter walk through the air, pure and simple, without any cover up, without any calculation, and without any burden. , just smiled simply, cheerfully, and wanton.

The inner melancholy and loss were instantly thrown aside, Renly carried the guitar and joined the children, enjoying the moment, music and childhood.

"Renly, 'Hey, Soul-Sister', come on, here's a song 'Life-Sister'." Cheerful shouts from the crowd shouted, following the voice, it was Alex. -The little guy Ricky shouted with sweat all over his head, his ruddy face seemed a little abnormal, the nurse standing next to him stepped forward and grabbed Alex's arm, "Little guy, you Can't be so excited anymore."

Renly raised his chin at Alex, "Man, which girl do you want to confess to? Tell me, and I'll help you do it."

"Hey, Life Girl" is the title track of the new album released by alternative rock band Train late last year. This single combines folk and rock styles. It tells the story of a man confessing his feelings to his beloved girl. When it was just released, the single was unremarkable, but after more than half a year of playing the song, it became very popular, and the rankings on the billboard continued to climb. Just last week, it reached the unbelievable number three. name and create new heights.

It can be said that this song has been one of the hottest singles on the major radio stations recently. Don't look at Alex's young age, obviously the radio has not been listened to less.

The teasing made the children laugh, but Alex was not at all restrained, and said in a loud voice, "Kelly, I want to confess to Kelly!"

Kelly-Patton, the hospital's new nurse this year, is only 24 years old. Originally, she was in charge of the guitar in the collective chorus today, but after Renly came, the guitar responsibility changed hands, and Kelly was responsible for taking care of the children.

Hearing such a high-profile confession, Kelly wrinkled her nose at Alex, as if expressing her dissatisfaction, but before she could speak, the strings of the guitar beside her rang, and Renly outlined the strings, Singing aloud, "Hey...heyyyyyy..." All the kids sang along to the catchy melody, and Kelly gave Renly a helpless look.

Renly shrugged with a big smile, and turned back to greet the children, all of whom scurried behind Renly, lining up like a train. I saw Renly playing the guitar while walking around Kelly, and soon Kelly was surrounded by the children. Alex chased after him and followed Renly. Head up and sing loudly, "Hey girl in my life, I don't want to miss anything you do, just tonight."

The atmosphere is not very lively.

Seeing how everyone was booing, Kelly finally gave up resistance, walked towards Alex, and sent an invitation, and then the two danced in the center. The nurse's white uniform fluttered gently, and Alex's red and tender face showed the happiest smile in the world.

This time, the children were even more excited. They clapped their hands to beat the rhythm, and sang so loudly that the songs began to go out of tune, like a burnt vinyl record, and the distorted tones echoed in the sun. But Renly didn't care, the smile on his face rose along with the dance steps of the children, and his body involuntarily began to beat the beat, joining everyone in the dance.

"Okay, okay, today's event should be over." After the song "Hey, Life Girl" was finished, Anita was reluctant, but she had to walk up to interrupt everyone's carnival, "Let We applaud Kelly and Alex!"

Renly was the first to raise his hands and cheer, and the other children followed suit, cheering loudly, "Oh yeah!"

Alex turned his gaze back, Renly's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded secretly in affirmation, and then saw Alex solemnly perform a noble knightly salute, expressing his respect.

Kelly opened her mouth in surprise, but still couldn't help laughing softly, and then she also pinched the hem of her uniform skirt and politely stepped back and bowed her knees in return.

Everyone started booing together, and Alex felt shy, and ran to Renly's side. Renly crouched down and raised his right hand. Alex jumped up and hit Lanly hard. Li's right palm was in the palm of his hand, and then screaming with great excitement, he ran towards the hospital's inpatient building.

Standing upright again, Renly wiped the sweat from his forehead. Thirty minutes of group chorus was even more exhausting than a sixty-minute performance in Pioneer Village. A gust of wind blew, and it suddenly became much cooler, and then Renly saw the kite in the sky, soaring recklessly under the bright sky, hula-la, hula-la, dragging its long tail, hugging the free wind. .

It was a butterfly kite, the kite Renly had left in Heather's ward.
