Anthony was very concerned about Laura coming, but he didn't have time to change clothes.
For this reason, he tried his best to adjust his posture behind the dining table so that the other party could not tell that he was wearing pajamas.
Annie opened the door and greeted Laura.
They walked towards the kitchen, but to Anthony's surprise, this person was not Laura, but the woman from before.
Anthony looked stunned: "Wait...who is she?"
Annie: "Here we are, we just got dressed!"
Woman: "Hello, Anthony."
Anthony: "But, Anne...this is not her."
Annie was a little helpless: "Dad."
She turned to the woman: "Would you like something to drink? Coffee?"
Woman: "No, thank you."
Annie: "Have you had breakfast? I..."
Anthony resisted: "I don't want her to come. Where is the one I like? Where is she?"
Annie: "Dad, what are you talking about? Say hello to Laura."
Anthony was confused: "Some things are too inexplicable, too inexplicable!"
He was frightened by this illogical situation.
However, the woman whom Anne called Laura said: "Do you remember me? We met yesterday."
But Anthony remained silent because the Laura he saw yesterday was not the woman in front of him.
This troubled him extremely.
Woman: "We just met..."
But Anthony looked panicked and took a step back.
The woman continued: "Then I said I would come back to see how you were doing and see if I could help you."
Anthony remained silent. He didn't remember it at all, or in other words, the woman in his confused memory was not Laura at all.
So he could only remain silent.
The woman said patiently: "Do you remember?"
But Anthony obviously didn't understand what was going on. He left the kitchen in panic and rushed into his bedroom.
Anne looked at the woman with a sad and apologetic expression.
The camera switches and this is obviously another bedroom.
Anthony sat on the bed, staring blankly ahead, trying to figure out what was happening around him.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door and Anne appeared. The strange thing was that she was wearing a coat.
Annie: "Dad? Can I talk to you?"
She entered the room. The woman followed and entered Anthony's room.
Anne sat on the bed next to Anthony.
Annie: "What should I say?"
Anthony didn't know what she was going to say.
Anne: "Do you remember, at first, you came to live with us, it was just, I mean, just a stopgap measure. Because you and Angela had a dispute. But I was wondering if this would be better?
"
She was too emotional to speak. She thought about how to discuss the topic in a more tactful way.
"What do you think of this room? It's nice, isn't it?"
She stood up.
Woman: "It faces the garden."
Annie: "Really?"
Anne opened the curtains and could see a garden outside the window.
Annie: "Pretty nice. It's like staying in a hotel, don't you think?"
The woman laughed: "All the tenants say that."
Anne turned to face her father and summoned up her courage: "I think it would be better for you here."
Anthony looked completely confused: "Where?"
She sat down next to him and said, "Here! I wonder if it would be more reassuring...better for you if we decided together to move you here."
After a short silence, she found that Anthony did not answer, and she asked again: "What do you think?"
Anthony: "What about you? What do you do? Where do you sleep? Which room?"
Anne said: "You haven't forgotten, I'm going to live in Paris."
Anthony: "No, you won't."
Annie: "I will. Have you forgotten? I told you...you forgot?"
Anthony: "But you said...are you sure?"
Annie: "Sure."
Anthony's eyes filled with tears: "You told me you would stay here...accompany me..."
Annie: "No, I have to go. This is very important. I've already explained it to you, but I will come back to see you, make time, and come back on the weekend."
Anthony was a little flustered: "What should I do?"
Anne held back: "You will stay here, in London."
Anthony is like an abandoned child.
Anthony: "Myself?"
Anne was silent. After the silence, Anne choked up and couldn't speak.
Anthony suddenly asked: "Where is your sister? Where is she?"
Annie didn't know what to say to him and just shouted: "Dad..."
Anthony couldn't help but sob.
Anthony: "Do you know how much I miss her..."
Annie: "Me too, Dad, I miss her too. We all miss her."
Anthony realized that Anne was sad. He immediately resumed his father's role - he stroked Anne's cheek gently, as if to comfort her. Anne closed her eyes with a smile, and clasped her hand on her father's hand that was stroking her cheek.
The camera cuts to a still shot, letting everyone know that we are obviously in a hospital now.
Anne walked out of the building. She left the hospital and walked forward. She walked out of the gate and hailed a taxi, which stopped in front of her.
She took one last look at the hospital before getting in the car.
The taxi drove away, and Annie sat down in the taxi and held back her tears.
In the hospital ward, Anthony woke up peacefully from his nap. It took him a while to realize where he was.
There was medicine on the bedside table, but his watch was not there. He touched his wrist and couldn't find the watch... He was a little annoyed.
He stood up and tried to call his daughter: "Annie?"
He wanted to leave the bedroom and go to the kitchen.
But when he opened the door, he came to the hospital corridor he had seen in his nightmare.
The woman walked in behind him. She was wearing a white coat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Woman: "Have you slept well?"
Anthony was a little confused: "Why am I here?"
The woman said: "It's time."
Anthony: "I didn't ask about the time. I asked you why I am here. Where is Annie?"
Woman: "Look, I brought your medicine."
Anthony: "Why don't you take your medicine and get out? Who are you, nurse?"
The woman replied: "Yes."
Anthony looked at her and realized that she had all the characteristics of a nurse.
Anthony was a little confused: "Oh, you are...Oh, so that's it...Oh, I understand, you are a nurse."
Woman: "Yes."
Anthony: "Oh, I see, that's what I thought, obviously, you're a nurse. So what are you doing here?"
The woman couldn't keep up with Anthony's thinking: "What?"
Anthony repeated: "What are you doing here?"
The woman said matter-of-factly: "I'll take care of you."
Anthony felt something was wrong: "You are right! Take care of me! When did I first hear about this?"
The woman said: "It's been weeks."
Anthony felt ridiculous: "How many weeks? I'm glad to hear that. Strange! No one told me anything in this house. I thought there would be a new one."
The woman wondered: "What's the new one?"
Anthony: "Nurse, a new nurse."
The woman was silent. She didn't know how to answer Anthony's question, or she didn't understand and couldn't understand what Anthony said.
Anthony continued: "The one who looks a bit like Lucy, my other daughter."
After a brief silence, Anthony added: "I saw her a few days ago. She was here, wasn't she?"
The woman calmed down and said, "Can you take the medicine?"
Anthony was still saying, "She was supposed to come this morning. Laura, wasn't she?"
But the woman shook her head: "I think you are confused, Anthony."
But Anthony still kept chattering: "The one who reminds me of Lucy!"
The woman gradually lost her patience: "Okay!"
Anthony also realized the other party's impatience and said quickly: "Okay, it's okay, just take the medicine. You don't have to race against time, right?"
He glanced at his wrist and realized he wasn't wearing a watch.
Anthony couldn't help it anymore: "Where's Anne?"
The woman replied: "Your daughter is not here, Anthony."
Anthony: "Oh? Where is she? Is she out?"
Woman: "You remember, she lives in Paris."
Anthony didn't believe it: "What? No, no, she thought about going, but she didn't go in the end."
Woman: "She has been living in Paris for several months."
Anthony was stunned: "My daughter? In Paris? No, listen, they don't even speak English there."
The woman showed him a postcard that was on the bedside table.
Woman: "Look, it arrived yesterday. This is the postcard she sent you. We read it together. Do you remember it?"
Anthony: "What nonsense is this?"
The woman pointed to the postcard: "Look."
He read the postcard, then turned it over and recognized it as the French poster he had first seen in his kitchen.
The woman said: "I tell you every day, she went to Paris because she met a man named Paul, and they lived together. But she sometimes comes to see you."
Anthony became even more confused: "Annie?"
Woman: "Yes, she comes sometimes on weekends. When she comes here, you go for a walk in the garden. She tells you about her new life and what she is busy with. Once, she brought you tea,
Because you like tea."
Anthony felt like he had seen a ghost: "Me? I hate tea. I only drink coffee."
At this time the man came in. He was also wearing a white coat. Anthony was very scared when he saw him.
The man asked: "Is everything okay?"
Woman: "Very good. We are just about to get dressed."
The man asked Anthony again: "Is everything okay?"
Anthony didn't answer. The man handed the woman a document, which she signed and handed back to him.
"alright."
The man left, and Anthony couldn't help but ask who this man was.
However, the answer he got gave him a headache. The woman told him: "Bill!"
But Anthony was confused again: "Are you sure?"
"Why do you say that?"
"No why. But, what do you say? What is he doing here? I mean, in my apartment, do I know him?" Anthony obviously forgot that he was in the hospital again.
The woman told Anthony that he saw Bill every day.
And her own name is Catherine!
However, the next scene left everyone confused.
Anthony: "Okay, okay, what about...me?"
She looked at him, not sure if she heard him correctly.
Anthony: "I...who am I?"
She smiled gently at him: "You? You are Anthony."
Anthony: "Anthony? Are you sure?"
Woman: "OK."
Anthony trembled and murmured: "Anthony? That's a good name, Anthony...don't you think?"
Woman: "That's a very nice name."
Anthony: "My mom named me that, I guess. Do you know her?"
The woman was confused again: "Who?"
"My mother!"
"do not know!"
"She is very... She has big eyes. Yes... I remember her appearance. I hope she can come to see me, my mother, what do you think? You just said she sometimes
The weekend will come..." Anthony said.
At this moment, the audience completely understood.
Anthony forgot again and confused the identity of his daughter Anne and her mother again.
He even forgot who he was.
Woman: "Your daughter?"
He suddenly felt sad.
Anthony was as helpless as a child: "No, mom. I...I want mom. I want mom. I want...I want to get out of here. Someone to pick me up."
Woman: "Don't do this, shush!"
At this moment, Anthony is as fragile as a babbling child looking for his mother: "I want my mother, I want her to pick me up, and I want to go home."
Anthony began to cry.
The woman was surprised. She had not expected this sudden sadness.
The woman was also a little nervous: "What's wrong with you? Anthony, come here, come to me. Tell me what's wrong..."
"I......"
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like...I feel like I'm losing all my leaves, one after another."
Woman: "Your leaves? What are you talking about?"
Anthony: "Those branches! And the wind... I have no idea what's going on. Do you know what's going on? Everything about this apartment? You don't know what's going on for sure,
I know where my watch is, on my wrist, I know this, otherwise, I don’t know when I should..."
Woman: "Let's put our clothes on first, okay?"
Anthony: "Okay."
Woman: "Let's go for a walk in the garden after we put on our clothes, okay?"
Anthony: "Okay."
Woman: "Great, there are trees and leaves there, and then we come back and have something to eat, and then you take a nap, okay? If you're in good spirits, we can go for a walk again, to the garden, just the two of us, because
It's a nice day today, isn't it?"
Anthony: "Yes."
Woman: "The sun is out, and we have to enjoy it. It doesn't happen every day. The weather never lasts long, does it? So let's put on some clothes, okay?"
He grabbed her and wouldn't let go.
Anthony was like a child: "No."
Woman: "Don't, don't be like a child. Come on, come with me, okay? Come on, relax, relax, shush, shush. You'll be fine soon. You'll be fine. Shh..."
He calmed down and lay in her arms. Catherine shook him gently, and he was like a child in his mother's arms.
The camera moves away, towards the window.
In the garden, the wind blew through the trees and the leaves rustled.
