This statement was understood by me at the time as the realization of dreams and the satisfaction of all wishes, of course, temporary. At that time, I actually knew people who sucked fans, but I was always timid and didn't dare to look.
Later, Xiaoyan also started to attract fans. Her mother repeatedly found someone to take her home, locked her in the house, and forced her to quit, but she would always find a way to escape. Do this again and again. In the meantime, she went to the school to find me. I was in class at the time. Looking out the window, the pale Xiaoyan was thin into a piece of paper. She asked me for money. But I was very poor, and the money was basically used to buy pirated books, so I only bought her cigarettes, and then watched her go.
I saw her again. It is said that her mother used some ruthless tricks, and she hasn't escaped for months. She has gained weight, her face is flushed, and her complexion is good. Seems to have a blind date with the arrangement at home. I think Xiaoyan should be fine, and she will have a plain and simple life like most people soon.
However, a few months later, I learned from my dad. Xiaoyan committed suicide by turning on gas in Wuhan.
This is almost the deepest memory of my entire adolescence, about others.
In fact, many things were out of control from the beginning, such as attracting fans, such as gambling.
I think I know Xiaoyan, including her lonely childhood before the age of thirteen, and her embarrassing youth after the age of thirteen. She seemed to have no choice.
If a person can achieve their wishes in a normal way, and if this way is not too difficult and fast enough, maybe no one will get fans and no one will sell drugs. The crux of the problem is the attitude of facing frustration.
Harry is very young. He loves Marion and Sarah. He wants to open a clothing store with Marion and buy a new TV for Sarah. But all this requires money. So he went to drug trafficking, and he had already smoked it before anyway. He has no other way to go.
I don't think how depraved he was in the end, because Xiaoyan, I think when drug addiction comes, people will do a lot of things out of control. He called Marion at the most desperate moment. Love has always existed. That dream also shows that the best part of his heart is still Marian.
The most innocent person should be Sarah. I've been thinking that if there is a child, if Harry and Marianne give birth to a child for her, maybe everything will be different. She will be busy with her children, and will not have so much time to be obsessed with TV, which is just an object she uses to fight against emptiness. The husband is gone, the son is gone, everything she has lost her brilliance, she can only place hope on the TV show, hoping that she will be radiant again and become the glory of her son again.
The most uncuttable thing for a person is to be blank. It is invisible and intangible. Love can be forgotten, fame and fortune can be weak, but emptiness, it is difficult for you to find an outlet. The illusion that she does not exist is the most terrifying. Perhaps Sarah is just looking for a clear sense of existence.
Don't talk about friends. Friends are just friends, not home. Not a harbor, nor a shore.
So Sarah’s loss of control is not just a trash doctor’s diet pill, but also a lack of belonging. She made me think this was a sad story, and if Harry and Marion had any vigilant significance, Sarah's story was just sad. Sadness with nowhere to rest.
