Adam, has a social barrier, because of his simplicity, pure and direct, and because of this Beth, he likes him. He is different, and it is interesting to get along with two different people, because there will be unexpected collisions. As a result, they constantly marveled at each other in the temptation. This is also how Adam's black friend Harlan gets along with him. And Beth and Harlan are both kind and patient people. Beth is not only to Adam A girlfriend, more like a mother, Harlan is not only a friend, but a father. They helped Adam grow up, opened the door to the world for this autistic child, and their unintentional good deeds took Adam from the dull and closed life. Pulling back to the world, let him experience the joys and sorrows of the world.

Adam may bring some happiness and surprises to Beth, but he is just like a child who needs to be taken care of. Beth can't communicate her inner feelings with him, and Beth can't communicate with him. Staying together. Because Adam is just a little pet, Beth may feel that he is playing with herself all the time.

Of course, in the end, Adam can overcome his cowardice and face the world that makes him fearful, or rely on his own courage and determination, because no one will sacrifice so selflessly for another person.

It's a heart-wrenching but inevitable scene:
Beth says: i'm sorry. i can't go.
In Beth After refusing to continue to give selflessly, Adam suffered for a while and finally picked up his luggage and went to California alone.

Is there an Adam alive in everyone's heart, there are times when he is cowardly, but if lucky, there is Beth or Harlan around , just enough to stretch out a hand to pull you out of the darkness, maybe you can climb back to the bright world, start to face reality, and learn to get along with the world. This is the process of a person's growth, from a fragile, willful, careless A child becomes an independent adult who can live in harmony with the world.

The relationship between men and women must be built on the basis of two independent people who can live well by themselves. This is unfair. One party will always take care of the other party, to spoil the other party, and tolerate the other party's childishness.

This story touched me too much, because I seemed to be the Adam, very simple, frank and timid, and my eldest son, like Beth. He has always taken care of me, and he is also a teacher, a friend, a lover, and a family member. Has been paying for me, has been helping me grow. Yes, we get along very well sometimes, but we also often quarrel because of my ignorance, just like Adam caught Beth's lies and attacked each other badly. I am growing, I hope that I can become independent, and no longer just demand, shout to him: I need you. I can't survive without you. He is not a translator between me and the world, I have to communicate with the world myself, and become His solid backing.
