[British and American Entertainment] Sonnets to Olivia

~~~~~ Love to me is not a skin-to-skin relationship, not a vegetable or a meal, it is an immortal desire, a heroic dream in a tired life.And my dream is to die with you. ~~~~~ Olivia got out of the car with a pile of materials. She has been working as a teaching assistant at Stanford for several months now.During the holidays she goes to Africa and continues to work in the reserve.And Tom will come to Los Angeles as long as he has time, but he has to act in both plays and movies, so the two don't spend a lot of time together.

After turning the key around, Olivia pushed open a crack in the door, and she suddenly smelled a fragrance, "Tom?"

"You came back just in time, I just finished the potato and beef pie." Tom was wearing Olivia's apron, with anti-scald gloves in his hands, and he was almost wearing a chef's hat on his head.

"Potato beef pie, oh, is that the burnt pie you had last time?" Tom had volunteered to cook when Olivia first moved here, but they ended up eating out anyway.

"I've practiced hard many times in the past few months, and I will never fail again!" Tom turned and walked into the kitchen. He sat down and stared at the pie in the oven, obviously he was not completely confident yet.

Olivia also walked into the kitchen and knelt down beside him, "Can we have dinner at six?"

"I miss Song a little." Tom raised his eyebrows, but his eyes were full of helplessness.

"I miss her too." Olivia leaned her head on Tom's shoulder. She regretted a little at this moment, why she didn't learn Chinese food from Song Ye.

"When will you go back?" Tom turned his head and kissed her forehead casually.

"Next month, I'll go after the summer vacation." Olivia had already planned, but she didn't know Tom's arrangement. "Where are you going to spend Independence Day?"

"Oh, I don't make it to Independence Day," Tom laughed back, "but I'll go to Kilimanjaro."

"What?" Olivia didn't realize it for a moment. The only Kilimanjaro she knew was the Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania.

"I'll come to Africa, honey." Tom kissed Olivia again, and he jumped up, turning on the oven. "Oh, we can have beef and potato pie!"

"No, now I want to eat you even more." Olivia threw herself directly on Tom's body. She lowered her head and kissed his lips, then closed the oven door smoothly.

The two rolled back and forth on the floor several times before they realized that Tom's potato and beef pie was burnt again.

The time together was very short, Tom returned to the UK, and Olivia continued to work at Stanford.But as soon as the summer vacation came, she immediately set off for Africa.After staying in the reserve for a while, she went to Tanzania to join Tom.

Hiring a trusty guide, Olivia and Tom set off for Mount Kilimanjaro.Because of safety reasons, many people in the camp also came to play together, a group of more than a dozen people, the team is very strong.

Passing through a tropical rainforest, stepping on moss and various lichens, mushrooms, insects, and fallen leaves, they came to the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro.

"Today we can climb to the c3780 camp at 2 meters. Tomorrow, we will climb to the top, then go down the mountain, and rest at c2 again." The guide explained the plan to them again, and did not want any troubles on this journey.

"Have you ever been to any place above 4000 meters above sea level?" Olivia herself often climbed mountains, so she was a little worried about Tom.Although the muscles on his body are still good, for mountaineering, muscles alone are not enough.

"Don't worry, Ollie, I've been to Mount Everest anyway." Tom was carrying a big backpack, and his physical strength was pretty good, and he still hadn't gasped for breath yet, "Base Camp."

"Hahaha." Grant laughed from behind. Someone like him who has already reached the summit of Mount Everest sees Tom as a kid from Novice Village.

"Oh, Brandon, not everyone has the attributes of Tarzan." Olivia wouldn't let him laugh at Tom.

"Aren't I Superman?" Grant realized that he had committed suicide. He was obviously a bachelor, and he went to run on others for cash.

"The next time Hollywood wants to shoot Superman vs. Batman, you must go to the audition." Tom followed Olivia and became proud. He patted Grant on the shoulder, and then hugged Olivia.

The group traveled very fast, and when they arrived at the c2 camp, the sky had just begun to darken.

"What's that?" Tom narrowed his eyes. He saw many dead trees near the camp without any branches or leaves.Their branches stretched towards the sky, like magic hands climbing upwards.

"Iokilimarjari, woody Senecio, it looks like a palm tree with smaller leaves when you get closer. But they only live here, at an altitude of 3000-4000 meters." Olivia took Tom to one of them Next to it, she raised her head and pointed to its top, "This one is relatively small, and there are a few around the camp that are almost five meters long."

"It's amazing." Tom walked around the thousand-mile light obsessively. He felt as if he was a human being who broke into an alien world, and he didn't feel familiar with everything here.Different from the feeling on the grassland, it is more desolate here, but it is not lonely at all.There are also many lives here, and there is also infinite vitality.

The sun had completely set, but it didn't get dark here.Climbers from all over the world have gathered to wait for the chef to serve.

Different languages, but everyone's laughter is the same.

Tom sat on the edge of the fire ring, and he looked at each one carefully, and read an infinite number of emotions in their faces.

"This camp is called Bo. It is said that a porter from Bo village saw the snow on Mount Kilimanjaro a long time ago. He was very curious and started to climb the mountain. When he climbed here, there began to be snow. He felt that It's so cold, let's go down the mountain. Then this camp is called Bo." Olivia brought a cup of tea and handed it to Tom.

"Thank you." Tom smelled a fragrance, but it was very sweet, especially in such a cold night, "So there was snow here before?"

"Hehe, are you going to start discussing the topic of global warming?" Olivia has also studied climate issues, but it's more complicated to talk about, and she doesn't want to talk about such academic topics with Tom.

"Of course not." Tom lowered his head and took a sip of his tea. He pursed his lips and asked, "There's also milk tea here?"

"No, I'll ask those Chinese people for it." Olivia smiled, "I've learned a few words of Sichuan dialect from Song Ye, but pandas can't understand it, but humans can understand it."

"Haha, it seems that your Sichuanese is as charming as your Latin." Tom looked at the young Chinese men next to him, obviously they had a good impression of Olivia.Meeting a beautiful woman in such a place with thin air is almost as likely as encountering a plane crash.

"The chef will be busy for a while, I'll take you out for a walk." Olivia pulled her hat, she didn't have time to deal with these glances right now.

Tom followed her out of the camp, and the two of them walked slowly across the field towards the top of the hill.Under the starlight, the white top of the mountain was very obvious.Looking up, the stars are like drops of water on a spider's web after rain, so dense that it is impossible to distinguish the constellations.

Olivia found a pad of flora and lay down on it, with Tom sleeping next to her.He found that the plants were so soft and dry that he even had the illusion of sleeping on a wool blanket.

The two looked at the star curtain above their heads and did not speak for a long time.

"Kilimanjaro is a snow-covered mountain at an altitude of 19710 feet. It is said that it is the highest mountain in Africa. The west peak is called the Maasai's "Jaw Achi-Jaw Ayi", which is the temple of God. In the west Near the peak, there is a dried and frozen carcass of a leopard, and no one has explained what the leopard is looking for in such an alpine place." Tom suddenly read a sentence from Hemingway's famous book "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" Come.

"Maybe it is as curious about snow as that bo man." Olivia laughed, "I was also crazy when I saw snow for the first time. And it was still in Alaska, the snow fell like the sky It's like the clouds are falling."

"Then you won't be able to see the aurora." Tom blinked, as if he saw a shooting star.

"We can go to Norway, we can go to Iceland, or the North Pole, the South Pole..." Olivia counted softly, and suddenly there was a surge of heat in her heart.She wants to travel to every corner of the world with Tom and see all the beauties.

Tom turned his head sideways, and he put his hand on Olivia's cold face.He is thinking about the same as Olivia at the moment, he wants to take her to all the beautiful, magnificent, poor, and harsh places, whether it is sweet or happy, bitter or spicy, he wants to share it with her, "As long as you don't fly with an African airline."

"Hahaha, are you scared, Mr. Hiddleston?" Olivia turned over and lay on Tom's chest.

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't see you again, and I'm afraid I'm on the way to see you. Then I will turn into a lonely soul, lost in your direction forever." Tom stretched out his hand On her back, he looked at the starry sky, as if he was reciting a poem.

"When a person dies, he is dead." Olivia suddenly had a sore nose, and tears welled up.She experienced dying, but she never imagined that one day Tom would leave her forever.

"What's the matter, Olivia?" Tom felt a drop of warm liquid hit his face, he hugged her quickly, and asked softly.

"Never, never talk about life and death, Tom?" Olivia rubbed her head in his arms, wiping away her tears.

"Oh, Ollie, shouldn't you accept the laws of nature so deeply, why are you still afraid of death?" Tom didn't mind his cashmere sweater being stained with Olivia's tears and snot.

"You are not a zebra, a lion, or a rhinoceros on the prairie. You are Tom. Hiddleston, you are the only existence in this world. And, I love you too, Tom." Olivia said Not a sentimental person, but she still can't accept talking about life and death with the people closest to her.

"I love you too, Olivia." Tom didn't kiss her this time, he just hugged her tightly, as if she was a ghost who would slip away at any moment if he didn't hold her tightly in his arms.

He glanced down casually, and saw her scars again.And this time he saw more, all the way to the stamina.Just when he was about to ask, Grant's voice came from a distance.

"Dinner is ready, if you two don't come to eat, I won't leave it for you!"
