679 Words
Lily's eyes were sour. At the moment when her mother grabbed her hand, tears fell down. She smiled at her mother and comforted her: "Mom, it's okay. I am not hurt. I really don't hurt at all." Her mother looked at Lily, and her lips were trembling and wiped tears. Lily was hit and made such a loud sound. How could it not hurt? She blamed herself for getting such a disease. She looked at the suitcase at Lily's feet and looked behind her: "Lily, what are you doing with the suitcase. Where is Zack? Why didn't he come with you? " Lily was stunned. She dared not tell her mother about her divorce with Zack. "I miss you and come and see you. Zack is busy. He took me downstairs and left." Her mother looked at her embarrassed face and pulled her into the house. Lily quickly stepped back: "Mom, no. As long as I can hear your voice, I'm very satisfied. Zack hasn't gone far. I'll call him downstairs and ask him to pick me up." She said, ignoring her mother's obstruction, she hurried out carrying her suitcase. Her mother looked at Lily’s back and felt guilty. Her condition was unstable. If she stayed in the same room with Lily and she had an attack, Lily can't see and won’t know where to hide. It's fine if she left. Lily pulled her suitcase out of the gate of the community and stood blankly on the roadside. She had no home and no place to go. The world was vast, but there was no place for her. "The girl in front, step aside. Don’t stand here to affect the traffic." Behind her, she heard the shout of the security guard. Lily hurried stepped aside to make way and apologized in a low voice. The cold wind roared and Lily shivered. She carefully groped a small corner of the security booth and squatted down. She buried her head in her knees to keep herself warm. Randall sat in the car and watched her nest in the corner like a child who couldn't find home. He was stung hard in his heart. He sighed helplessly and got out of the car. When he asked her where she was going, Lily hesitated. He knew the she hid something, so he had been waiting at the gate of the community. Sure enough, he saw her helpless and embarrassed side. "Lily !" He held an umbrella to help her block the snowflakes falling overhead. Lily raised her head. Randall did see that her eyes were full of tears, and her little face flushed with tears. She sniffed, wiped the tears off her face, and asked in surprise, "Dr. Lee, you didn't go?!" Randall squatted down and looked at her lovingly: "Lily, if you don't have a place to stay , you can stay with me." Lily quickly shook her head: "No, I can’t. We're not relatives. I can't trouble you. Dr. Lee , you don't have to worry about me. I have a place to go. I'm just tired and want to have a rest... " Randall looked at her being stubborn, paused for a moment, and suddenly said, "Lily , you can play the piano, can't you? A friend of mine has opened a restaurant and is recruiting a pianist. Do you want to try? Food and housing will be provided." "Really?" Lily was happy and then hesitated: "But I am blind. It will cause trouble to your friend." "Don't worry. You are qualified for the job." In the hospital, Zack was waiting at the door of the ward. The picture of Randall and Lily standing together just now always appeared in his mind. He was upset. His mother had been walking around next to him. Looking at his cold face, her eyes flashed : "Zack, Shirley fainted because she saw you chasing Lily. She was in a coma for three years and finally woke up. You can't let her down." Zack's eyes moved and said after a long time, "I won’t!"
