[American Entertainment] Crazy ex-boyfriend

Chapter 40 Love On The Brain (2)

Music is joyful, but it is impossible to count on music to bring him all the happiness 24 hours a day.

anything else?It seems that we can only count on those white powders.

But that's not good,? It's not really a solution to the problem.

He is in pain.

This pain stems from the difference between life and ideals, the split between "I must" and "I want".He didn't know how to solve this problem, and he didn't know who to ask.

Iris once said that family is very important, but family should not be a burden to him.

Now, Hailey asks him, are you happy?real joy.

Film critics say that he has played himself in several of his previous critically acclaimed films—"Mosquito Coast", a responsible eldest son; "Unlimited Wanted", another responsible eldest son; "Peering Together",? A juvenile with a sense of justice who wants to break away from his family background.

These characters are more or less a part of himself.

A lot of child stars can't handle these things when they are in the stage between teenagers and young adults: family and personal,? Responsibility and ego.They have come into contact with all the things and things that they should not be exposed to in the big dye vat of Hollywood. Sometimes family can help them resist bad influences, and sometimes it pushes them into the abyss.

On the point of protecting him from the corruption of Hollywood,? Arlene tried her best,? But she didn't completely put an end to it.From this point of view, he thanked his mother for his protection and contribution.But he also knows that he is different from other child stars, even from ordinary kids.

His psychiatrist said,? He should learn to be "selfish",? Learn to think more about himself,? "I? need,? I? Want", so that he will not be driven crazy by himself.He has anxiety disorder, and the panic disorder of being afraid of flying alone is a form of anxiety disorder. He is always worried that he is not doing well enough and will disappoint his parents and his younger siblings.

He always dreamed that he and his family would go back to the time when they couldn’t eat enough. Every morning when he got up, he would think about how much money he would have to get today to feed the whole family. where.He is still a baby and shouldn't be responsible for the whole family's livelihood, it is too heavy for him.

"Hayley," he said in a low voice, "I don't know what to do. I can't imagine what it would be like to be away from home, away from Arlene."

Hai Li sighed, "It's not that I stopped contacting after leaving home. Don't tell me you're not Arlene's child if you're not at home?" She pulled her hand from behind and stroked his cheek, "It's like this in the animal world, child When they grow up, the big birds will push the chicks out of the nest and let them learn to fly by themselves. You are a big boy, it is time to learn to live by yourself."

"I'm very scared, very scared." He grabbed her hand and kissed her palm lightly.

Warm tears dripped on the palm of her hand.

"You have to figure it out for yourself, don't think about me, only think about yourself. I can't tell you what to do, and I can't always stay where you are. You and I are independent individuals, and no one leaves. I can't live. If you can live a more self-sufficient and happier life in the future, I will be happy for you. Now, you go, go back and sleep." Fingers gently wiped his tears.

He closed his eyes, feeling the gentle touch of her fingers, as if brushing against his heart, numb, crisp, melancholy, and painful.

Haili returned to the bedroom and put the birthday present from Rui Fan in the drawer of the bedside table, but did not open it.

He took off his nightgown and lay down again.

6 points in the early hours.

What is love?

Like mom and dad, love and trust each other?The love between boys and girls must be as hot as fire and inseparable, but even that kind of love will inevitably be shattered by emergencies and separated by human greed.

Does she love Rui Fan?

It seems that they are also in love, but they should not trust each other like parents.Both she and Rui Fan are not people who can open their hearts to others. Even if they say "I love you" every day, they still can't "trust" in reality.

Love, what a strange thing!

On Monday, Hayley returned to Berkeley.

Exam week begins, and Robert Downey Jr. arrives in San Francisco on Monday.

The shooting of the new film has not officially started, so he went to Berkeley in the afternoon.

Hailey received him at the apartment.

"Baby," handing over the bouquet, "white roses, yellow roses, I remember you like these two kinds of flowers."

"Thank you." Hayley took the bouquet, "Come in."

"I thought you went to school."

"I've been there. I have an exam in the morning and a rest in the afternoon. Tomorrow, I'll still have an exam."

"Then I shouldn't come." Even though he said so, he didn't turn around and leave, but walked into the door instead.

"What are you doing? Reading?"

"No," she sat down with a smile, "I only read books when the exam is coming? That's not me."

It was not the first time for little Robert to come to her apartment, and he had never seen her read a book. He was surprised, "I thought Berkeley would be very stressful to study."

"There are 5 days of classes every week. As long as you make good use of these 5 days, there is actually no course that is too difficult to learn." She said indifferently: "Harvard and Yale are the same, as long as you study more at ordinary times. , the exam week was easy."

Little Robert still admired her for that.No matter what class or occupation, people will still treat smart children who are good at studying and can do things differently.

"I used to think that you—" He smiled, "It seems that legends cannot be trusted."

"Did you hear what people said about me? Said that I can only play?"

"Probably." He didn't need to tell her exactly what he had heard.

"I don't have to spend every minute of my spare time studying." She flipped her hair casually, "Do you want to take me out for dinner?"

"I've made a reservation for the restaurant, can you leave now?"

"Wait a minute, I'm going to change clothes."

Hailey's dating status has subtly turned into dating two people at the same time.

After the exam, when she returned to Los Angeles, it probably became the rhythm of Savannah, Jim, and Robert Jr. taking turns asking her out to play.

Savannah was very strange, "Accordingly, you don't go to those Hollywood parties very much now, and they shouldn't be around you. Isn't Hollywood full of beauties? Can't they go to other girls? They put you time is taken up!"

"Don't you need to fall in love?"

"It's boring! The boys in school are so boring!" Savannah was furious. "I want to kiss after two dates, and it's even worse after dinner. I just expect to have sex with you. Tell me! These men Don’t they all use the little heads below to think about problems?”

Hai Li laughed loudly, "It's not too late for you to find out now."

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. What are your plans for Christmas?"

"Helen is going to Spain with Alexander for vacation."

"Huh? What about you?"

"Me? I'm definitely not going with them. Where would you like to go on vacation? I have a little vacation budget, how much do you have?"

"Hundreds of dollars." Savannah looked embarrassed.

"You are responsible for the meals, let me book the air tickets and hotels, let's go to less popular places, or, to Las Vegas?"

Savannah agreed right away, "Let's go to Las Vegas! We can drive."

"You won't be home for Christmas Eve, can you?"

"I want to live at home, but you can live with us. I'll go back and talk to my mother. Then we can leave overnight after dinner." Savannah smiled, "Is this a good plan?"

"Very good, that's the decision, I'll call and book a hotel."

They quickly made plans for their Christmas vacation.

Savannah asked, "You don't want to be with Jim, or—Bob?" She said "Bob" in a weird way.

"Jim's coming home for Christmas and he's leaving the day after tomorrow. Bob, he's probably going to spend a few days in New York, where his sister lives."

"Does Jim have siblings?"

"Yes, there are three sisters and a brother."

"Tsk tsk, look! They all have brothers and sisters, only you are the only child."

"So?" Hailey was puzzled.

"You don't understand what it's like to have siblings."

"Ah, you also have brothers and sisters, you can explain to me."

"You know Bill and I used to fight a lot when we were kids, right?" It's the way it is in families with multiple siblings, the kids fight each other and yell all the time.

"Yes, you beat Luke." Luke is Savannah's younger brother.

"The point isn't that we fight a lot, it's that even though we beat each other up all day long, we're still brother and sister, you know? I mean, there's nothing between me and them that gets to the point where we just want to fire-flame-spray- Boys are very annoying to the point of killing each other with a shooting weapon, but if someone dares to bully me, Bill and Luke will help me, instead of considering the problem of face in front of the friends. I am their sister, yes Blood relatives."

Hai Li thought for a while, "So, I don't understand how you treat siblings."

"You don't have this experience, and you don't understand what we think."

Hailey was very distressed, "I can't figure it out." She has no such experience, and Helen is an atypical mother. It is really difficult for her to understand the children in these multi-children families.

"Bill is a jerk sometimes, but he's the older brother, he's the eldest son, and he's responsible for me, Luke, Amy, and at least until we're adults and we leave the house, he's going to take care of us."

"Rui Fan is the same, but Rui Fan is not a bastard."

Savannah laughed straight, "Yes, Rui Fan is very good. I am willing to use Luke and Bill together to exchange for a brother like Rui Fan."

"Ah, didn't you just say that they are your blood relatives?"

"That doesn't prevent me from thinking that other people's brothers are better." Savannah said with a smile.

"I want my brother too." Haili said sullenly.
