Ken looked at Chris suspiciously.

"Then how did you regain custody of your son?"

"I didn't fight for it anymore, because my son Jack told me that he lives very well and is very happy in such a family. In such a family, he will not feel alone. Although I miss my son very much, I also miss him. The life between us. But I understand that some things really cannot be forced by you. Just like feelings cannot be forced. "

Chris shook his head, such an approach would only make his loved ones go further away from him.

Although Ken didn't quite understand what Chris was trying to express, he already felt relieved to have someone to talk about his distress and sadness.

In fact, he has never cried for so many years.He has always felt that a big man, why would he express his cowardice by crying.

After Chris leaves, give him a business card.

"You can come to me for anything. In fact, I know that you are a good person and a good father. It's just that you missed a lot of opportunities and didn't have enough luck. I hope you can take a good look at yourself and start a new life. life."

After she left, Ken sat in the coffee shop for a long time.Looking outside from day to night, from crowds to few streets.He has nowhere to go.Those who are in a hurry are actually happy, because there are people at home waiting for them to go back, they are expected and loved.

He also had such a life before, but at that time, he only felt that life was too boring and monotonous. He only had to work, eat, and sleep every day, and he didn't even have time to spend with his wife.Both space and time are occupied by children.

At that time, he didn't know how precious such simple and ordinary happiness is. He just thought it was just a simple day that everyone was experiencing.

But now, he understands this truth.No matter how ordinary happiness is, it will eventually become a luxury.

He lost too many opportunities and time, but he didn't know how to take the next step.Chris asked him to give up and learn to let go and respect. In fact, it's not that he doesn't understand these principles, but he just doesn't want to.

Happiness has slipped away bit by bit.The children don't need him anymore, how much he misses his daughter when she was six years old, asking him for candy in a childlike voice, and clamoring for the chocolate in the advertisement on Halloween.After clamoring for it all night, he had no choice but to go out to a 24-hour convenience store to buy it.When I came back, my daughter went to hug her teddy bear and fell asleep.

When my son was in elementary school, he wanted a new baseball cap. At that time, he was already struggling financially. The baseball cap was not cheap, and it was a limited-purchase item signed by a celebrity in a flagship store.He worked a week at a fast food restaurant before he could save enough money to buy the hat.

At that time, the two children were very dependent on him, and they both liked to ask him for a hug, and then looked at him with big bright eyes, hoping that he would take them out to play, preferably to Disney.

There were too many things in the past, but recalling them made him sad.

"Sir, this is a rose for you from a lady. It's a bit cold today, she told you to go home early so you don't catch a cold." A waiter brought him a rose.

The lady who delivered the roses left the coffee shop, looking at her back, she seemed to be an old woman.

Maybe it was a sad thing for her to see Ken crying alone in the coffee shop, or maybe she just wanted to comfort a man who was crushed by life.Or, in this cold weather, she wanted to warm a sad passer-by.

Ken got up and went home. He took the rose and kissed the petals.He couldn't remember how long he hadn't touched a rose.It was too long, so long that he would forget the smell of roses.

Chris found Amy at the hotel.

"Why did you leave without saying a word. You know what? Ken cried after you left."

"It's not my fault, I didn't bully him. He is an adult, how can he blame me for crying?"

Amy is worried.Mary's relatives were more unreliable than the other, and their plans could not be realized at all.How will Mary feel if this continues?

At the party when she was released from prison, none of her relatives were present.In such a scene, Amy was really afraid that she would not be able to hold on.

"Amy, I also thought of it, Mary has more than these few relatives."

"Who else? Cousins, cousins? Let's forget it, kisses are unreliable, and you still count on those who can't win? It's definitely a waste of time."

Chris took out the marks and notes they made.

The sketches in that notebook are almost all arrows and names.

"Look, her elder sister and elder brother have given birth to so many children, they are real nephews! And some of them are not much younger than Mary. I think they should have feelings. Maybe we can start from here ?”

In fact, there is really no way to do this, and they are the ones who are desperate.

Amy vetoed the proposal.She believes that although Mary really needs her relatives, she can't just accept anyone.Their purpose of finding relatives for Mary is also to relieve her depression.Give her hope in life.But find a group of people who are a generation younger than her to accompany her.

I'm afraid Mary's situation will be even worse by then.

She felt that in her next life, she really wouldn't have this responsibility, and how old would the juniors be at that time?What deep kinship could they have with Mary?At that time, there will only be a lot of embarrassing scenes, which will make everyone very unhappy.

"Then what do you say? This doesn't work, and that doesn't work either." Chris also felt a little frustrated.This seems like an infinite loop of puzzles.Couldn't find a solution at all.

Amy sighed.

"Maybe, we really can only rely on ourselves. We will accompany Mary by ourselves. What do you think? Instead of forcing those relatives, it is better for us to depend on each other. Live together for a while. Anyway, we are all alone now. Each other There can be a caretaker too. Isn't it?"

Chris felt that Amy had a point.Since the mountain does not come, they will go to the mountain.

The two said good night to each other, and then fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, the two went back home together.

Chris and Amy decided that Mary would live in Chris's new villa after she was released from prison, and Amy would live together for a while.The main task is to let Mary find the meaning of life again.

time flies.Mary's day has come.

Chris and Amy prepared well, and then waited for her to come out at the prison gate.

But I don't know why they waited from morning to afternoon, but they didn't see Mary.

"Did I get the time wrong? I'll check my phone." Amy immediately took out the notes on her phone and took a look. She found that it was indeed ten o'clock in the morning on the [-]th.Not at all wrong.

Chris was a little uneasy.

"Could something be wrong? We'd better ask."

Amy also felt a little frightened, maybe she couldn't think about it before she went out.

The two had no choice but to go to jail and ask the police officers for questioning.

"That Mary in the library. I know, she seemed to be ill last night, and she is in the ambulance hospital today."

The two were startled.

"Then can we go in and have a look?"

"Yes, yes. She's out of prison anyway. Come with me."

Amy and Chris saw Mary who was resting in the hospital. She didn't seem to have much energy, but the nurse said that she actually didn't eat yesterday and had a little hypoglycemia.As long as you replenish your energy, you'll be fine.

The two were relieved.

Mary smiled faintly when she saw them.

There was an air humidifier working on the bedside table, and there was a faint smell of disinfectant in the ward.The person on the nearby bed seemed to be asleep.The nurse also went out and asked them to comfort Mary well.It's not a physical problem for her to get back on her feet, but a psychological problem.

In this hospital, she has seen a lot of patients like this, who don't want to be released from prison, who have been wronged, or who don't want to stay in prison.There is no way for a hospital to treat such a heart disease. Even a psychiatrist has little effect.

You can only rely on the care and care of your loved ones.Before, there were many inmates who committed suicide and were sent here, some died, some were rescued, and they blamed the doctor for saving him.

Many nurses can't stay for a few years, and new nurses will always leave, because this place is more depressing and uncomfortable than ordinary hospitals.The patients here are hopeless, both physically and mentally.

"You are here. I knew you would come to see me. It's a pity that I couldn't make it through. I know, you will definitely educate me and tell me how not to be brave. I am also ready to face a new life , but I was not ready, yesterday I made a lot of cakes and biscuits. I gave it to many people, but I couldn't eat it myself."

Mary smiled wryly.Her life was really full of ridiculousness, she couldn't eat it when she was in prison, and she couldn't eat it when she was released from prison.Her life has been a mistake since she was 28 years old.No, it was probably a mistake from 18 years old.

"You just think too much. We have prepared a party for you. You really don't give us face, and you would rather go to the hospital than participate. No, we can't waste the well-prepared meal. The nurse said you wait You can be discharged from the hospital. We have already loaded your luggage into the car, come on, after drinking this drink, we will go home."

"go home?"

"Yes, Chris allocated a room for me and you, and we treat their house as a resort. We have to have a long vacation. But it's agreed that we will do the housework, so it will be regarded as rent. "

Amy and Chris pulled her up, told her to change, and drank a cup of coffee with sugar, and she was a little bloody too.

After leaving the hospital, the three got into the car and set off.
