Chapter 201
"Hi honey." Mom knocked on the open door. "Come down for lunch."
"Okay, mom, I'll come." Natalie turned her head and replied, then closed the book, cleaned up the table, and came downstairs, saying hello to her father who was reading the newspaper , she automatically went to the kitchen to help her mother.
"Nat, are you angry with Angie?" After her daughter took out the tableware and came back, Shirley suddenly asked, which made Natalie slightly startled, and then turned her head: "I— You're not angry anymore, Mom."
"Then why didn't you call her or answer her phone?" Shirley looked at her daughter.
"Okay, mom, don't ask this, okay?" Natalie sighed, "I just don't want to talk to her for the time being, probably because—I don't know what to say to her yet."
"Well, dear, I just want to say that Angie has called and apologized many times for whatever reason you guys are fighting. If you keep doing this, it will not only be rude, but also make Angie sad. Do you really want to Lost this friend?"
That's because you don't know what she did!Natalie said this in her stomach, but on the surface she nodded as if nothing had happened: "I know mom, I will." She picked up the large glass bowl on the chopping board and left the kitchen.
"Dad, you can come over here." After putting the large glass bowl on the table, Natalie greeted her father on the sofa.
"Hmm. It smells delicious, what is it?" Evner walked over with a newspaper.
"I think this bowl is transparent." Natalie said with a grin.
"Okay, okay, I saw it." The father shrugged and followed him to look at his daughter: "Honey, how long are you going to have a cold war with Angie?"
Natalie's mouth twitched.Reluctantly replied: "Okay, Dad. Can you not mention this at dinner?"
"Okay, okay, I just said the last thing, I don't know anything between you girls that can be so bad, but I turned a blind eye to Angie's behavior of calling and apologizing several times. It's not polite behavior " Evner shrugged, seeing her daughter frowning and about to say something, immediately added: "Okay, I won't say anything."
The dinner was quite harmonious, and Natalie went back to her room directly after finishing the meal. She still had a lot of books to read.Reading is another hobby of hers besides acting. The good reading habits she has developed since she was a child make Natalie very fond of the world in books. This allows her to learn a lot and complete her homework when she has no film appointments. Finally, if no friends come to play with her, she will stay quietly in her room and read a book.
But today, she obviously couldn't calm down.My heart, which was already a little calm, was stirred up again because of what my parents said.Damn Angela, what the hell did she say to her parents to make them all speak for her!Natalie thought angrily in her stomach.
In fact, she also knows that this is because she neither answered Angela's phone call nor told her parents the truth, which caused the current situation. In any case, two calls a week for one and a half consecutive months will deceive some parents' sympathy. As for the truth, she really didn't know whether to say it or not.
According to the books Natalie checked and some information found on the Internet, it is in the United States. The proportion of girls between the ages of 14 and 18 who have had preliminary sex with each other is quite high.From a psychological point of view, this can be regarded as a manifestation of curiosity about oneself.After the girls have boyfriends, most of them will get back on track. Only a small number of girls become gay due to some other factors, so from this point of view, Angela's behavior is still within the normal range.
However, what worried or feared Natalie was that the feeling of being one with them when they made love made her lose her heart. While masturbating in the bathroom and muttering her name, how could she be agitated by Angela's "nasty" words on the phone.
This is really scary, what if... what if I become gay? !She has read countless books, but none of them can tell her what to do, so she dare not answer Angela's call.
But what if she keeps calling like this?Natalie was thinking with some annoyance, or should she just give her a call and speak clearly?
The girl stands up and sits down, stands up and sits down, has never been so difficult to make a decision, others say that she is precocious, and can think for herself at a young age, but why is she so hesitant about this matter?
In the end, Natalie gritted her teeth, turned around and walked out, went to the stairs and looked down, and found that her parents were not in the living room, so she hurried down to the phone, and was about to pick up the receiver, but hesitated again Woke up, thinking about the few days she was with Angela, she always had an uncomfortable feeling.
What happened to me?The girl squeezed her fist and showed a wry smile. She slowly picked up the receiver and put it next to her ear, but she didn't have the desire to press the number with her fingers. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the receiver: " Excuse me, who... is there?"
This sudden voice made Natalie jump, almost threw the microphone out, and hurriedly asked, "Who are you?!"
There was silence for two seconds over there, and a voice of surprise came immediately: "Thank God, Nat, you finally answered my call!"
"An...Anji?!" Natalie was more and more surprised, and couldn't turn her head for a while, "I haven't dialed the number for you yet, how did the call just go through?"
"It's God's will, dear Nat." Angela's giggles came from the phone.
"Angie!" Natalie emphasized.
"But what I'm telling is the truth. You know, I was just about to call you, so I pressed the number. Before the connected voice rang. I heard someone over there, so I asked. That's it. What if it wasn't God's will, oh Nat, forgive me? I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have said those things. I swore I would never do it again."
Natalie opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything. She already understood that the phone should be connected at the same time as she picked up the receiver, but this is really too coincidental. Could it be God's intention? ?Or did God want to make a break with Angela?
Just when she was thinking wildly.Angela's voice came again: "By the way, Nat, can you refer to something for me? I really don't know how to make a decision."
"This is ridiculous. Is there a decision that a genius girl can't make?" Natalie, who was troubled by her heart, said unceremoniously.
"Come on, Nat, I think if there is a girl my age who thinks maturely to help me, maybe it will be easier for me to make a decision." Angela pleaded softly, and then did not wait for Natalie to speak , and continued on his own: "You know, I received an invitation from Mr. Yitzhak today. He is going to hold a charity concert at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, and invited me to be his guest performer. This really surprised me , I really don't know whether I should accept it, you know..."
"Wait! Angie! Are you talking about Yitzhak? Yitzhak Perlman?! A famous contemporary violin master!" Natalie almost called out, how could she not know about this famous Jewish violinist? Grandmaster!It's also one of her favorite musicians!
"Yes, I don't think there is another violin master named Yitzhak besides him." Natalie, who was surprised and puzzled, did not hear a little pride hidden in the other party's words.
"You mean that Mr. Yitzhak Perlman is going to hold a concert in Los Angeles and invite you to be a guest performer?" She repeated Angela's words, and then patted her forehead hard. "God, is he crazy?"
"Hey, Nat! I know my level is not as good as Mr. Yitzhak's. But you don't have to hit me like this!" An unhappy voice came from the microphone.
"Well, I mean... how could he invite you to be his guest performer?" Natalie switched to the microphone, and all her thoughts were now focused on this matter.
"Remember what I told you before, I met Mr. Yitzhak when we were filming Schindler's List in Poland, and we had a great chat - and Mr. Williams - I played the violin in front of him, which is the soundtrack in the movie, and he praised me, I didn't expect him to remember me, that's it." Angela was a little unnatural when she said this , This is the oriental modesty in her bones, but Natalie sounds like she is exaggerating herself.
"That is to say, Mr. Yitzhak remembered you after such a meeting, that's why he sent the invitation. I should really congratulate you, shouldn't I?" There was a touch of sarcasm in his tone.
But Angela came here with a reconciliation attitude, and didn't care: "Okay, don't hit me anymore, do you think I should agree or refuse?"
Natalie fell silent. Angela still has some strength in instrumental music. The pure music EP of "Reminiscence" is still on her record rack. She is still very picky about music sometimes. , but if she really wants to be Yitzhak's guest performer, can she do it?At this time, she had unknowingly considered Angela's position. Although she didn't know the full strength of the other party's instrumental music, since Mr. Yitzhak invited her...
"Well, Angie, I think you should make your own decision. Accept it if you want to accept it, and reject it if you want to, because you can measure yourself."
There was a moment of silence over the microphone: "Okay, I see, then when I come to New York, will you come to watch it live?"
"You're coming to New York?"
"Yes, I promised Mr. Yitzhak to be a guest performer at the beginning and end of his American tour. Don't worry, I will send the ticket to your home."
"But..." Natalie hesitated, and then she woke up in the next second: "Wait! You have already agreed!"
"Promise? Oh, yes, no! No!" The other side said in a panic, "Okay, I'm going to practice, that's it, goodbye!"
"Hey! Wait! Angela! You lied to me again!" Natalie yelled angrily, but there was only a beeping sound from the microphone.
At this time, the mother came out from the back room: "What's the matter, dear."
"No mom, Angie's call, she lied to me again!" Natalie said angrily.
Shirley blinked: "So, you have reconciled?"
Natalie was stunned, and then realized that she had forgotten what she wanted to say to Angela, and being disturbed by her, the worry she had been worrying for a while disappeared temporarily. She couldn't help but spread her hands and sighed, put down the phone and went upstairs Walk up, leaving only the mother who chuckled and said nothing behind her.
