Chapter 1131 Rewriting Destiny
“…Before you were born, I had been pregnant twice, but both miscarried.”
“When I was pregnant with you, I was extremely scared. I had to think about the worst case scenario."
"And from that moment on, I thought you were my miracle baby." is a secret.
A secret belonging to Andrea and Jason, a secret from before Evan was born, a painful memory hidden in family history.
So when the astrologer said that Evan should not be in this world, Andrea collapsed and could no longer control her emotions.
Although Evan is still curious about how Jason retrieved his memories back then, he increasingly realizes that he cannot hurt his mother and he needs to find a way on his own.
After dinner, Evan returned to the dormitory, and he decided to start with a diary.
However, Evan's roommate Thumper stopped him.
The chubby goth boy always had weird hairstyles, always brought all kinds of girls back to the dormitory, and was always bohemian and immodest. At this time, he snatched the diary from Evan's hand and was full of emotions. He shook his head seriously.
"I thought about what you did again, and things may be even worse when I wake up."
Evan smiled bitterly, "Is it worse than now?"
< br>Thamp shook his head and tried to stop Evan.
Evan couldn't control himself, "Do you think you understand me? No, even I don't understand myself."
Evan snatched the diary back from Thumper's hand and tried to re-enter the world of the diary. However, he couldn't concentrate, which made him angry and frustrated.
In the end, Evan drove away from the school instead of continuing to read the diary -
This time, he found Keller.
In the screening room, Nicholas was slightly stunned.
Finally, halfway through the movie, Rachel McAdams appeared.
However, it is not as glamorous as imagined.
Haggled and gloomy, broken and cowering, with a curved spine, hunched shoulders, and evasive eyes, you can see the scars left by time in the depths of her soul without words.
At this time, she was just a waiter in a dilapidated restaurant, serving food and coffee. She accidentally broke the plate while the restaurant owner was cursing at her.
She hurriedly cleaned up the mess, but found that the bald middle-aged man took the opportunity to get stuck. She was startled, but she did not dare to announce it, and quickly dodged away, barely exposing herself to the middle-aged man. With a smile, he staggered away and hid in the kitchen pretending to be calm.
Involuntarily, Nicholas thought of Keller's father George and brother Tommy. An unknown premonition gripped his heart tightly and made him breathless.
If even Nicholas had such a reaction, let alone Evan?
On the movie screen, Evan stood outside the restaurant door and witnessed this scene with his own eyes. The smile slowly stiffened at the corners of his mouth, the sadness and sorrow in his eyes slowly revealed, and the brightness of his eyes gradually dimmed. .
Evan did not step forward to disturb Keller.
He thought that maybe Keller didn't want his embarrassment to be seen; so, he hid in the parking lot and waited patiently until Keller got off work.
“Hey.”
Evan called cautiously, with a little nervousness.
When Keller heard it, he stopped and turned around, but subconsciously took two steps back, fully alert, keeping his distance, and ready to escape at any time.
That kind of subconscious defense and resistance really reveals too much information.
Evan walked out of the darkness, not approaching, but keeping a distance. He looked at Keller with a slightly reserved and shy look, carefully concealing the confusion in his eyes, and quietly looked at the figure in front of him with his peripheral vision. .
Keller was stunned. Looking at this slightly unfamiliar yet vaguely familiar face under the moonlight, familiar memories surged in like a tidal wave. I relaxed my guard slightly, and spoke tentatively with hesitation and uncertainty.
"...Evan?"
The big boy wearing a white T-shirt and jeans scratched his head, a smile on his lips slightly raised, "Hey, Caleb."
< br>With a greeting, those lost times surged forward in a mighty way.
Keller was stunned for a moment and stared at Evan quietly. The joy and happiness gently filled the depths of his eyes. He just stood there, letting time and the breeze flow, and the world pressed Press the pause button.
An exchange of glances has changed the world forever.
The next second, Keller came back to his senses and became nervous uncontrollably.
Keller hurriedly took out the cigarette from his pocket and tried to light it, but found that his fingertips were shaking so much that the lighter could not light up no matter how hard he turned it on.
Finally, after many attempts, it finally lit up.
Keller took a deep drag on the cigarette and calmed down a little. Seeing Evan approaching, she still calmly distanced herself slightly, and couldn't help but look up and down, as if she saw something. Novelty items in general.
You come and go and chat casually.
From Keller's understatement, we can know that Tommy was eventually arrested, but because he was underage, he was released from the correctional center for a few years and is now working in a car repair shop. apprentice.
Keller moved out at the age of fifteen in order to stay away from his father, and because his mother had remarried and obviously did not want to have anything to do with her past, Keller had to drop out of school, go out to work early, and start his own business.
A few words, pretending to be relaxed.
Keller's words are without any embellishment or exaggeration, and are as light and gentle as possible. On the contrary, you can feel more pain in the wounds between the lines.
The two of them walked slowly in the night, walking, as if they could go to the end of the world without worrying about tomorrow.
However, Evan cannot.
Despite the struggle, despite the hesitation, Evan still mustered up the courage to ask——
When he was seven years old, that afternoon, George took a camera to shoot a movie, what happened to them, and the results appeared In the basement?
In other words, what happened in the basement?
Why is Keller in tears? Why aren't they wearing their own clothes? Why did George shut him up and have to keep the secret?
The topic was just brought up. Evan didn’t even have time to touch the core of the topic. It stung Keller’s sensitive nerves. He showed off all his spikes like a hedgehog, and his words became intense.
Evan tried to comfort Keller, "No matter what happened, it was not our fault. We are just children, and we don't need to take responsibility for what happened..."
"Close Mouth, Evan." Keller exploded, "You're wasting your time." After saying that, Keller turned around and ran away without giving Evan a chance to continue.
Evan looked at Keller's back. He also wanted to turn around and leave, but took a deep breath and turned back again. "You can't blame yourself for your father's distortion."
However, Keller did the same. He broke out, turned back, and faced Evan angrily, "Who are you trying to convince, Evan?"
"You came all the way back to mess up my life, just because you have something bad. Memories?"
"So, what do you want? Me to cry silently on your shoulder and tell you that everything is fine now?"
"Damn it! Wen, nothing has changed for the better, nothing will ever change for the better.”
Keller turned around and left in grief, but he couldn't hold it back after all. He turned around again, stood in the moonlight, and shouted at Evan from afar.
"You know what? If I'm so perfect, why didn't you call me? Why did you leave me here to rot?"
