Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 357 The Crying Girl

Montana is located in the northwest of the United States on the border with Canada. It is only separated from California by Idaho and Nevada. It has a nickname of the state of wealth, but this wealth does not refer to how rich the economy is. The rolling mountains at the northern end of the Key Mountains and the magnificent prairies that cover two-thirds of the entire state!

There are 10 national forests and 13 wild reserves, as well as Glacier National Park and part of Yellowstone National Park. The beautiful natural landscape makes everyone who travels here linger, and it is also the scene of many movies with natural scenery as the location. The filming location, such as "Brokeback Mountain" that Angela had considered in the plan.

It was already afternoon when we arrived at the horse farm outside the small town of Gardner. The afternoon sun shines through the layers of branches and leaves and sprinkles on the grass, changing with the breeze, which looks quite emotional.

After following the horse farm owner Ronald Lane's car and turning a corner, the crew had already appeared in front of them. It seemed that Angela and the others had come at just the right time, and the people on the set were coming and going back and forth just in time for a break.

"Hi, Darryl, how are you?" Ronald, who got out of the car, laughed, raised his thick arms and hugged the young assistant who looked dry and thin.

"Don't worry about Ron, your horse is fine, Peter won't allow us to use it if there is a slight problem, what a stingy and excellent assistant." Darryl said jokingly.

"I'm not here to see my horses," Ronald waved his hand, "I'm bringing people here to visit the class."

"Visiting the class? Which big thing do you need to bring to visit? Bill Clinton? Or Madeleine Albright?" Darryl was still joking.

"Believe me, she is much more welcoming than those people." The owner of the racecourse said seriously, and stepped aside.

Darryl didn't take it seriously at first, but after recognizing the front of the two girls, he immediately changed to a surprised expression: "Miss Angela Mason?"

"Yes." Gila nodded politely, "Nice to meet you, Darryl..."

"Darryl Cobbs." The young man happily introduced himself, "I didn't expect to meet you here! You came here..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly patted his head: "By the way, you are friends, I'm sorry, I should have thought of it earlier, please wait a moment, and then I will inform Mr. Radford."

"I think if it's okay, don't bother Mr. Director for the time being." The girl quickly stopped him, "I'm here to visit her class."

"Of course." The assistant nodded suddenly, and then waved to the distance, "Terry, come here!"

A mixed-race young woman about his age with a few freckles came over: "What's the matter, Darryl?"

"Is Miss Johnson there? Someone's coming to see her."

"She's probably over there," the young woman named Terri pointed to the dense forest not far away, where a clear river flows through, "She said she wanted to be alone for a while, I see her doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

"Then let's go over there." Angela said after Darryl turned around, and then said goodbye to the owner of the racecourse, Ronald, and then took Avril's hand and walked towards the woods. Two bodyguards Still follow from afar.

"It's hard to imagine that you would be afraid of the enthusiasm of fans." Weiwei said jokingly, Angela immediately turned her head to make a look of glaring, and the little guy quickly stuck out his tongue: "Okay, okay, Mr. Ronald The family is really too enthusiastic."

Angela was too lazy to talk to her and just quickened her pace, so Weiwei had to keep her mouth shut and trot along.Walking into the woods, a feeling of coolness came to my heart immediately. This place is much denser than before, and the climate in Montana is not stable. Although it is summer, the temperature is still lower than other areas, so it is quite cool in autumn. feel.

After walking a few steps among the trees, Angela finally found a small leg protruding from behind a certain yew tree. She smiled and ran over shaking her head, and it was Scarlett who was sitting there after turning around the tree. ?

The girl was wearing a red and white plaid shirt and jeans with a strappy jumpsuit. She didn't look very pretty, but she was leaning against the tree trunk with her legs buried in her head, not knowing what she was doing.

"Hey, Manny, I finally found you. God, why did you come here? Isn't it cold?" Although she was surprised by her behavior, Angela immediately knelt down beside her, smiling While asking, she raised her hands to give her a bear hug when she exclaimed. However, when Scarlett raised her head, Angela couldn't laugh anymore.

The girl's eyes were red, and tears kept rolling down her cheeks. The mixed expression of anger, helplessness, and sadness made people feel distressed. Angela held her face sadly: "What happened, Manny? Who Bullied you?"

Scarlett didn't answer, but jumped into her arms, hugged Angela tightly with both hands, then buried her face in her chest and twitched her shoulders slightly, obviously in extreme sadness.

Avril, who was also surprised and distressed beside her, also knelt down at this time. She was about to speak when she saw Angela shook her head slightly and made an apology gesture. Weiwei smiled and said it was okay, and then turned to Scarlett After making a few hand gestures as a supplement, Angela tiptoed away after nodding.

"If you are sad, cry out loud. There is no one else here but me. It will make you feel better if you cry out loud." Angela patted Scarlett's back lightly and whispered softly in her ear Said in English, over and over again.

The trembling frequency of the small body in his arms became faster and faster, and the arms holding Angela became tighter and tighter. The sound of choking came from the head buried deep in the chest, and then slowly turned into a low whimper. Finally, she lay in Angela's arms and cried loudly. The deep and painful whine made people feel sad.

At this moment, Angela was very sad. It was the first time in her past and present life that she faced helpless crying like a life-saving straw from a friend. Even Kate was just a vent after the sadness, while Scarlett was like flood control. The dam finally collapsed after cracking, and the flood flooded out.

So she could only try to keep the posture so that the girl in her arms could be more comfortable, and at the same time, the soft voice that comforted her back kept saying in her ear: It's okay, it will be fine.

Finally, Scarlett's crying subsided, and she slowly raised her head. Although her eyes were still red, she was still sobbing slightly, and her pretty face was stained with tears, but she finally got better.

"I'm sorry..." She wiped her tears and looked at Angela's chest in embarrassment, which was wet a lot.

"It's okay," Angela smiled and gently wiped away the remaining tears on her face, "Did something happen?"

Scarlett opened her mouth but turned her head away, with a rather hesitant look on her face, as if it was a little difficult to speak.Angela sighed softly and grabbed the little girl's shoulders, looked at her and said seriously: "The Manny I know is strong, confident, and has the advantages that all New York girls have. She must have met her when she was so sad." It's very painful, her heart must be hurt very badly, maybe I can't help her, maybe she just doesn't want me to worry, then it's okay if she doesn't want to say it, but I hope she knows, no matter what she has Wronged, her friends—me, Nat, Jessie, Lindsay, Liv—will stand behind her! Even if the sky falls, we will guard her!"

The girl stared at Angela in a daze, biting her lips, not knowing what she was thinking, Angela still stroked her hair with a gentle smile: "Okay, then we..."

Without any warning, Carrie hugged Angela tightly again, her body began to tremble again, her beautiful facial features twisted together, as if caught in a painful memory, but Angela remained as light as before without saying a word Gently stroking her back.

"I hate him! I hate him! Why did he do this! Why! Why did he and his mother have a good life, why did he still have to divorce! Is he still my father! Is he the father of four children! I don't forgive him ! Never forgive him!"

The hoarse voice echoed in the woods, and Scarlett completely shouted out, which shows how resentful and unwilling she is.From these few sentences, Angela roughly knew what was going on, but after figuring out the reason, she didn't know how to comfort the little girl. Scarlett's situation was different from Xia Xia's. She was only four years old when Xia Xia's parents divorced. At the age of five, I still can't understand why my parents are not together. At this time, as long as I give more enlightenment, it will not have any bad consequences for the child.

But Scarlett is already 13 years old, and the divorce of parents at this age is undoubtedly the biggest blow to them. At this time, the child's outlook on life, world outlook and values ​​have just begun to form. Suddenly encountering great changes in the family, it is easy to guide them accidentally. Become extreme, just like Scarlett now.It is certain that Mr. Johnson filed the divorce request, and it may even be because of an extramarital affair, so the little girl feels that her father has betrayed her.

"...In the past few months, I have to go to school, comfort my mother with my brothers and sisters, pretend to be calm in front of Adrian, pretend to be nonchalant in front of my family, and even when my father comes back to see us. Always greeted with a smiling face... I cried secretly under the quilt more than once, it was really uncomfortable...Why did this happen!"

"It's okay, Manny," Angela held Scarlett's shoulders again, looked at her still tearful eyes, and stroked her face pityingly, "We can't comment on the behavior of our parents, and we can't correct their actions. decision, but we can choose whether to carry these on our shoulders all the time, or let it go and go our own way! You are not alone, you have your mother, and Hunter, Vanessa, Adrian, and Us! We all love you, so, even for us, you should cheer up, the storm will pass, and the rainbow will eventually appear."

Speaking of which, she leaned over and kissed the little girl's smooth forehead lightly. Scarlett had completely stopped crying. She looked at Angela blankly, and many things seemed to flash in her pale green eyes. There was nothing, and then the corners of her mouth slightly turned up, it was so soft that it looked particularly beautiful in the twinkling tears.

The girl slowly hugged Angela's waist, and leaned her head against her chest again, so tightly that she seemed to never want to separate, followed by the two girls sneered at the same time: "Ah !"

"What's wrong?" the two asked in unison.

"My legs are numb!" Again in unison.

The two girls looked at each other with weird expressions, and then both couldn't help giggling. The clear laughter echoed in the woods, and the previous sadness seemed to disappear.
