[Two thousand four hundred and ninety swept]
what happened?
Why won’t the refrigerator door close?
Why?
Anxiety is burning fiercely, and the beating of the heart is slamming against the chest, getting faster and harder, and the savage force seems to be trying to break out of the ground. He trembled slightly, and even his breathing began to quicken.
what happened?
What exactly is going on?
Why won’t the refrigerator door close?
Why?
Damn chicken breast, damn it!
Those damn chicken breasts!
Why doesn’t the refrigerator door always close?
Breathing, he was about to be unable to breathe, his heart seemed to be bursting, and the pain without warning swept through like this.
What to do, what should he do?
boom!
Boom!
boom!
What the hell happened to the refrigerator door?
The damn refrigerator!
He felt like he was about to suffocate.
…
Standing in the study, Renly heard the sound of the refrigerator slamming. At first, he thought it was just Matthew who missed and closed the door of the refrigerator. More and more panic, more and more rapid, revealing a strong sense of unease.
Putting down the book quickly, Renly rushed all the way towards the kitchen, and then saw Matthew standing blankly at the door of the refrigerator, covering his chest with his hands, breathing extremely fast, as if he was starved of oxygen, on top of his cold face Filled with panic, it even captures the breath of fear.
“Matthew?” Renly called out, but Matthew didn’t answer. This kind of Matthew was too abnormal, which made Renly have a ominous premonition, and called out repeatedly, “Charles? Charles!”
“I feel like I Something’s wrong.” Matthew gasped, shaking uncontrollably.
“What do you mean? What’s wrong? Are you sick?” Renly tried to help, but didn’t dare to approach easily, because Matthew looked like he was going to collapse at any moment.
“…” Matthew shook his head, and shook his head like this, “I don’t know…I…” Matthew’s voice disappeared in his throat, and then suddenly burst into tears, he clenched his fists and tried to let He straightened himself up, but the tears still fell uncontrollably,
“I don’t think something is right with me.”
“What’s wrong?” Renly asked anxiously, scrambling to find the phone in the corner, trying to ask for help.
But the phone wasn’t on him at all, which made Renly panic too.
“I think I just felt a panic, I can’t stop…” Matthew also felt so unfamiliar, never experienced himself like this, “I don’t know, Renly, I don’t know…you… Can you take these things away? Please, all of them.”
“What? What?” Renly wondered.
“I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know!” Matthew couldn’t breathe at all, even with his mouth wide open, he still couldn’t feel the oxygen.
“What? Chicken breasts? Do you want me to remove them?” Renly noticed the chicken breasts scattered all over the floor.
But Matthew couldn’t answer.
“Charles! Do I need to call 911? Do we need to go to the hospital? What the hell happened, Charles? Did you have a Heart-Attack?” Renly panicked.
“No, I don’t know, no, no no no.” Matthew just shook his head, just confused, he couldn’t take it any longer, he pushed Renly away, turned and left the kitchen.
Renly stood there, his eyes blank: he knew something was wrong, but he didn’t know how to help. Matthew was so unfamiliar.
Renly bent down, quickly picked up the chicken breasts scattered all over the floor, and stuffed them into the refrigerator, only to find a box of chicken breasts tucked in the crack of the door, so that the refrigerator door could not be closed. After taking it out, he closed the refrigerator door smoothly. , then walked upstairs quickly and knocked on Matthew’s room door.
The door was locked.
“Matthew, are you ready to go to bed?” Renly said loudly, knocking on the door.
“I need silence.” Matthew’s voice came from behind the door panel, but it was looming and very faint.
“Matthew, I don’t think this is the best time for you to be alone.” Renly shook his head and refused. “If you’re going to bed, then unlock the door.”
“…” Matthew didn’t answer .
.
“Matthew, I’ll be leaving now, and you’ll be quiet, but you must unlock the door,” said Renly again.
Matthew still didn’t answer.
“Bang!”
The door panel of the room was kicked open from the front, and the loud sound exploded like thunder. Matthew, who was lying on the bed, sat up abruptly, looking at Ren Li who broke into the door in disbelief. , “Are you crazy? Sebastian! I’m not a ten-year-old! I don’t need your supervision! Do you know what the hell you’re doing?”
“I said, unlock the door! Charles, you know I refuse to accept ‘no’ as the answer, and you shouldn’t challenge my bottom line.” Renly didn’t flinch at all, fighting back, his voice even over Matthew, “Are you having a mental breakdown? We need it now. Going to the hospital? I know the experience…”
In “Mind Hunter”, Horton experienced such a moment at the last moment, and Renly knew exactly what it was like.
“No! No no no no!” Matthew stopped Renly again and again, “Don’t use your acting experience to simulate my state! No! You know I don’t like it!” After venting, Matthew only felt tired for a while , that deep tiredness was pulling at his ankle, and he didn’t even have the energy to maintain basic etiquette, “I’m just… I’m just a little crazy.”
“No problem, everyone is allowed to be crazy, but I can’t make you crazy with the door closed. Remember? The door to the room in the Prince’s Garden was never locked. I didn’t do it, and you don’t allow it.” Renly still refused to compromise, looking at Matthew, who had taken off his disguise, as if he had returned to Eton again.
At that time, Matthew had learned to disguise, but he was not good at it. He always defeated the mask easily, and then Matthew couldn’t do anything about him, and he was helpless beside him.
It used to be his favorite prank.
“If you go crazy every time you see a frozen chicken breast, then I think we might need to find a psychiatrist,” Renly said solemnly.
Matthew raised his head speechlessly, looking at Renly with chagrin, anger, shame and irritability, and then he couldn’t control his eyes turning red again, “I don’t want him to stay in the freezer, You understand? It’s like…like that damn frozen chicken breast. He’s not…he’s not…”
Renly’s shoulders relaxed a little, “I know he’s not. But there’s nothing we can do, no Is it? That’s his children’s decision.”
Matthew just sat on the edge of the bed, breaking down little by little.
Renly let out a light breath, walked into the room, and sat down on the sofa opposite the bed.
Time passes slowly.
Then Renly’s voice gently broke the calm, “Did you crash last time at Eaton? It seems that I doodled because of your reading notes?”
“Go away.” Matthew didn’t even lift his head, it was simple Roughly cutting off Renly’s words, the room fell into peace again.
Indistinctly, it seemed that the sound of strong winds could be heard surging outside.
Matthew sat quietly in the same place, his turbulent emotions gradually calmed down, the panic and fear of the heart palpitations disappeared, and his reason finally came back, but he still couldn’t think, just felt so tired and tired, and he didn’t want to say a word of tiredness. That deep sleepiness was slowly eating away at his energy.
“The refrigerator isn’t finished,” Matthew whispered.
“I’ll sort it out.” Renly took the initiative to take over the job.
Matthew raised his eyes and gave Renly a speechless look, expressing deep suspicion.
Renly raised his hands, “Okay, I’ll have the apartment manager come upstairs to help, I’ll just play by the side, how about that? Is that more satisfying?”
Matthew nodded in satisfaction.
“…” Renly was speechless.
After a short pause, Matthew continued, “Renly, I’m going back to London for the funeral, or Glasgow.”
“Well, do you need me to accompany you?” Renly nodded, not surprised.
Matthew lay back on the bed/on the bed, willfully maintaining a prone position – this is an incorrect sleeping position for nobles, and then said, “No, no.” His voice became more and more lazy, It’s getting heavier and heavier, like drooping eyelids, drowsy escaping into the darkness, “I…I want to give him a ride myself. I need…to face Henry, to face his children, I need to… Do it yourself, as if you were escorting Heather.”
“Yeah.” Renly replied in a deep voice.
Matthew didn’t speak any more, just fell into a deep sleep like this, his breathing gradually stabilized, his heartbeat gradually stabilized, and he finally found stability again.
But Renly still didn’t leave, just sat quietly where he was, guarding Matthew like that, listening to the sound of time slipping away from his fingertips.
It wasn’t until it was confirmed that Matthew was really asleep with exhaustion, that he had no nightmares or panic, and that his steady breathing sounded softly in the night, and then Renly stood up and left the room lightly.
But he still didn’t turn off the light, but left the cream-yellow lamp on the bedside table to dispel the darkness.
Standing at the door of the room, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Renly let out a light breath: Parting is still so difficult after all, even after experiencing it again and again.
Looking back at the door lock that was kicked and broken, now I finally don’t have to worry about locking the door.
Back in the hall, wandering around, and finally found his cell phone in the key bowl at the door – although Renly didn’t know why the phone was there, and then dialed Philip Demba’s number.
“Well, I’m not going back. Matthew needs to go through this section by himself, but he’s not in good shape. If Henry comes, don’t let him see Matthew, I don’t like the way he handles things.”
Renly The footsteps slowly came to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the lights of the thousands of houses outside the window.
“Philip, can I ask you one thing? Please talk to Haight’s children and let them accept Matthew’s sponsorship to help Haight return to Glasgow. This is his last wish. I know this is a bit too much to ask for. , after all, your position is also a bit special, but I really hope you can help.”
“Thank you, Philip.”
“Also, please offer a bouquet of flowers for Haight in my place.”
