Memories unfold like scenes from the past, and my heart feels as if it has been pierced by a thousand silver needles.
That year, on the night Yi Jun went to participate in the competition, I pushed open my parents' bedroom door.
I saw my father holding another woman in his arms.
From that moment on, my life began to crumble.
My parents started to argue.
During the fiercest fight, my father slammed the door and left.
After that, I never saw him again.
Not long after he left, people started coming to our house to collect debts.
The debt collectors were fierce and destructive, smashing anything they could find.
My mother desperately tried to stop them but was pushed aside.
She fell down, hitting her head on the coffee table and bleeding profusely.
I screamed in terror.
Those debt collectors finally got scared and fled like frightened animals.
I rushed over, holding my mother's head and crying, "Mom, you're bleeding so much, what should we do..."
My mother's face was pale, her expression filled with despair: "Lanlan, I'm sorry for you..."
I shook my head vigorously: "Mom, you won't be hurt. I won't let anything happen to you."
My mother stroked my face, tears streaming down: "Lanlan, I really can't hold on any longer..."
"Mom, please don't leave me..."
I cried uncontrollably.
"Lanlan, forget about me," my mother said, suddenly standing up and rushing towards the bathroom.
"Mom!" I hurried after her.
My mother had already laid down in the bathtub.
She glanced at me, then picked up a kitchen knife and cut her wrist.
"Ah!" I screamed.
My mother looked at me with a crazed smile on her face.
She turned on the showerhead, and water sprayed out, washing away the blood.
The blood spread in the water like vibrant flowers.
I watched helplessly as my mother closed her eyes.
"Mom!" I knelt on the floor, crying heart-wrenchingly.
Xiaolin found me.
She took me away to the distant Southern City.
On a drizzly day, I curled up in a corner of the hospital, dressed in mourning clothes, looking dispirited.
The doctor said to me, "Miss Luo, you have a hereditary form of depression and a significant tendency towards suicide. The treatment will be difficult, and you will need long-term support from your family."
That day, Yi Jun won an award in a competition.
He earned a chance to study abroad.
He called me and said, "Lanlan, wait for me for three years. After three years, I will come back and marry you."
I looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and said, "Yi Jun, I might not be able to be with you."
How could I bear to trap him in Southern City for the rest of his life?
He is so outstanding; his future should be bright and expansive.
Not burdened by me.
He must hate me, right?
After all, I abandoned him.
But he could have a better future, couldn't he?
On the third day of my high fever, I woke up from a nightmare.
I actually saw Yi Jun.
He was sitting on the sofa in the ward, quietly peeling an apple with his head down.
The sunset streamed through the slats of the blinds and fell upon him.
His long fingers were pale and slender, skillfully rotating the apple.
A few minutes later, a peeled apple appeared in his hand.
He looked up and saw that I was awake, then got up to press the call button.
A few minutes later, the doctor walked into the room.
"Awake?"
The doctor came over to examine me.
"That's good. Just make sure to increase your protein intake in your diet over the next few days."
"Okay."
Yi Jun thanked him and handed me the peeled apple, gently saying, "Have something to eat first."
I didn't take the apple; instead, I got out of bed to look for my phone and jacket.
Yi Jun allowed me to wander around the room, looking relaxed.
I searched all around but couldn't find my phone or jacket.
Standing barefoot on the floor, sunlight streamed through the glass and illuminated my face.
I turned back to look at him, feeling haggard.
