this is a very slow movie. After watching the movie, I also want to tell two stories.
Very independent at a young age. My mother went out to work since I was in elementary school, because she was dissatisfied with my father's mentality of "not seeking progress". Childhood impression of my mother: strict, hysterical, stubborn. But when I was very young, I still missed her. When I missed her, I hid in the bed and cried, daring my father to hear. I think these are the special treatment of only children, maybe it would be better if they had siblings. Impressions of my father when I was a child: I put meals that were repeatedly cooked for a week, drink heavily, smoke, play on the computer, play at home, and have no communication.
For such families, it is only a matter of time before the outbreak occurs, and there are often small earthquakes. After the police entered my house several times for "burglary" and "domestic violence", I forced them to divorce. I want to talk to my mother, because I don't want to be embarrassed to break into the door, see my father suddenly turn off the monitor, I don't want to pass the door and hear his phone. But my mother asked me to choose my father. She said, "After your father leaves you, he will definitely leave you alone. It is better to spend his money on others than on you." I don't know why, I envy Maggie. When she was abandoned, there was always someone who could help her. I still remember high school. It was very stressful. After they divorced, my mother forced my father to separate the family. , I chose to leave by myself, but legally, I belong to my father. So, one day, my mother "driven" me out too, and told my dad in front of my face that she took my keys and took me back. I really hated my mother at the time, and naively thought that I could live with my father like a movie. I secretly swore that I would save, work hard, and cheer up my father. The fact gave me a slap in the face, and my father threw me to three Uncle, I went with my girlfriend chicly. The third uncle treats me very well, even better than my biological parents. They make me breakfast every morning. This is the only time I can eat breakfast at home when I grow up. They give me a very clean and tidy bedroom. It's very beautiful, but, like Mech, I've never really laughed. Going home from self-study in the evening, riding a bicycle, going around and around, in a small community, but I can't find my home for a long time. Later, my father rented a house, and after drinking and fighting with others, he broke his hand. Once again, I naively thought that my father and I could depend on each other again. My stepmother showed up naturally. I can't like her, although she treats me better than my mother. Every night I study and take a 15-minute bicycle ride. I always think about whether to go to my mother's or my father's. Dad smoked and drank heavily, and he could be smoked out of the house as soon as he opened the door. I want to go to my mother's place, but my mother won't let me stay for a long time. She wants to ask my father for living expenses. So, like a ball again, I pushed it and kicked it. After school every day, just like Maggie, I ride my bike expressionlessly, going around and around, no one cares where a 10-year-old girl will live at night, I tried it, and if I lose it, no one really cares , because they both thought I was at each other's house.
I don’t like hugs, I don’t know how to comfort me, and I’m not very good at asking for help, because when I was a child, whenever I asked for help, my family always sternly scolded me for “solving it myself.” When I refused a lot, I became independent. For everything, I am: if this thing is mine, it will come back when I let it go. So please, it's really not something in my dictionary.
Let me tell you another story about my cousin, her story is closer to Mechi, and more importantly, the protagonist of the story has the same pair of eyes as Mechi.
The first time I saw her was when she was 4 years old. Although I heard that my aunt's family wanted to adopt a child, I was still a little upset. I have always been the youngest in the family, and now there will be a cousin who is even more loved than me. . But when I saw her, it didn't matter, she was really beautiful.
I really don't understand why her parents abandoned her, is it because the sky is jealous of Hongyan? Her parents divorced when she was 4 years old, and then remarried separately. I remember seeing her for the first time with bright eyes, timid eyes, and fear of strangers.
She was with her father, but her father married another and gave birth to a younger brother, so he abandoned him. After her mother left, she tricked her into going to Hainan, a very southern place, and there was no way to see her, but her mother also gave birth to a sister. Her father's sister, my aunt, has never had children, so she was lucky and found another home.
My aunt and uncle are very kind to her. My aunt used to tell me that after my cousin came to her house, she often cried and couldn’t leave people. After 5 minutes of going out, my cousin could cry hysterically. I can understand that the experience of being abandoned has come to her Said it caused a great psychological shadow. My cousin started to call my uncle and aunt my father and mother, my father, my (name) father, my mother, and my (name) aunt. I just chatted with her two days ago. She is 9 years old. She said that she still wants to cry when she thinks about it.
My cousin is very good. She loves to laugh when she comes to my aunt's house. She is a tomboy, but she will still be sad if you can't tell her anything about abandonment.
However, my aunt was diagnosed with uterine cancer this year and has been undergoing chemotherapy. She has lost her energy as she used to, and I don’t know how long she can last. My cousin should not understand, but she really doesn’t want anyone to abandon her again. She smiles like a elf . She doesn't deserve it.
These stories just want to remind myself that when you are faced with a choice, don't bring the same suffering to your children. Happy Mechs.
