"You know because ......
Did I lose a whole party of fun, maybe I was able to meet ...... like at this party" "Hey, no complaints, Steve, you didn't see Andrew already fainting. ”"If his condition is serious, we can send him to the hospital......"
"I have already said that kind of place is not something that can be entered casually, don't you see the situation in the tunnel, God knows how long it has been around, there may be strange things in it that we don't know about......"
Lying in the back seat of the car, Andrew's originally unconscious consciousness gradually woke up.He opened his blurred eyes and looked at Matt and Steve in the driver's seat, hearing the sound of their two arguing on and off.The sharp headache in his brain began to subside, and Andrew shook his head and struggled to sit up."
Andrew, wake up!"
In the driver's seat, seeing Andrew, Matt immediately let out a cry of joy and turned his head to him and said."
Look at the road, Matt, I don't want to die with you!"
In the passenger seat, Steve watched such a thrilling scene and immediately reached out to help the steering wheel.Under Steve's reminder, Matt realized that now was not a good time to speak.He hurriedly turned his head and put his gaze back on the road he was driving on, and at the same time glanced up at Andrew in the rear-view mirror, and said with concern."
How are you feeling now Andrew, you passed out by the waterhole before, we thought something had happened to you.""
To be honest, that scene before was really scary, dude."
Looking back at Andrew, who was sitting in the back, Steve couldn't help but say something."
It's nothing, I'm just ......"
Hearing Matt's inquiry, Andrew looked down and touched his wrist, his memory only stayed on the moment when he collapsed in the waterhole before.Thinking of this, Andrew glanced up at the backward scenery outside the car, and subconsciously said, "What about the waterhole, where are we going now?"
”"You're still thinking about that tunnel, man, that thing almost killed you."
Seeing that the first thing Andrew did when he woke up was to ask about the waterhole, Steve's face couldn't help but show a speechless expression.If he had heard Steve's words before, Andrew would have undoubtedly opened his mouth to argue with him.It's just that I touched my wrist and remembered the strange scene I encountered by the waterhole before."......," Andrew was rarely silent.......
"See you tomorrow, Andrew. ”"See you tomorrow."
Parking the car near Andrew's apartment, Matt glanced at Andrew in the back seat and couldn't help but ask."
Are you sure, you don't have to go to the hospital, Andrew, after all, you passed out by that weird pool not long ago......"
Reaching out to open the handle of the rear door, Andrew shook his head and glanced up at the location of the apartment when he heard Matt's inquiry."
No, I'm feeling better now.""
Well, you have the final say, Andrew."
Hearing Andrew's insistence, Matt didn't continue to persuade him, he shrugged his shoulders and said goodbye to Andrew, and then drove away with Steve.Watching the car disappear from its back, Andrew silently withdrew his gaze.He turned his head to look at the 'home' behind him, took a deep breath, and walked away.…… Coming to the door, Andrew cautiously opened the door."
Who do you think you are, Andrew!"
However, in the next second, he was greeted by the heavy fists of the man named Father.A punch slammed into Andrew's head, and the man was full of alcohol and asked: "Who gave you the courage to come back at this time!"
”"I'm just hanging out with my friends."
Holding his fist-punched head, Andrew leaned against the wall and said."
Friend, you think those people are your friends, what kind of friends can you have......
"Andrew's explanation didn't stop in his ears, and the man still stretched out his fist and punched and kicked him a few times.The man's fists rained down on Andrew's body, and he curled up his thin body in silence to endure the punches and kicks again, gritting his teeth and trying not to let tears flow from his eyes.The constant sharp pain in his body made him ignore the terrible screams that sounded in his head.At this moment, Andrew even felt that the scream was made by himself."
Whew, Whew......" leaned against the wall and punched and kicked Andrew for a while."
Also, remember for me in the future, if I tell you to open the door, you must open the door!"
The man gasped and stopped his fist, leaving a harsh word to Andrew, who was cowering in the corner, before shaking his body and leaving with the smell of alcohol.With his arms tightly on his face, looking at the man's departing back through the gap in his arms, Andrew's hands were clenched into fists, and his eyes were full of hatred.......
"hiss~" sat on the bed and lifted his shirt.Andrew gasped as he looked at the bruises left on his body.The man's fist didn't leave any hands, and each blow left clear bruises on Andrew's body, which looked ugly and conspicuous on top of his healed scars."
Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......"
From the next bedroom, there was a violent coughing sound and a mother's cry of pain.This was followed by a series of rings, and the sound of a phone call.“…… She is in pain, the previous medicine has not been able to relieve her pain, we need stronger medicine, since a week ago, her breathing has become painful, and the respirator has no way to relieve her symptoms......"
"Sir, she is in pain, please help me ......"
"No, sir, I can't afford to pay more, we rely on disability assistance funds to barely maintain the medicine, don't make me wait, okay, I have no choice but to turn to you, sir, sir......"
"Why, Didn't the new president already promise that everyone would have access to health care, and I voted for him, why is it that our lives have not changed at all, or even worse?
”On the phone, the man who was full of arrogance towards Andrew looked extremely humble.He pleaded bitterly, but in exchange for an indifferent response on the other side of the phone.Hearing all this in his ears, the expression on Andrew's face became a little more gloomy.Everything in this family made him feel even more pain.Putting down the clothes he had lifted, Andrew lay down on the bed while enduring the stinging pain from various wounds on his body.While listening to the coughing and pleading in the next room, he closed his eyes.
