"Hey, hello, it's me. Her familiar voice came over the phone, with a hint of melancholy.
"Well, it's been a long time. I responded with some crampedness.
"I just came to your city recently, and I really want to meet you, so I think it's an old party. Her tone was a little expectant.
"I know, I know. But let me see you again, just this last one. She pleaded, "We're all grown up, you don't have to be a burden on me." "
I was silent for a moment, then finally nodded in agreement, "Okay, but we can only meet once." "
"Great, that's it. She happily hung up.
I made up my mind, grabbed my coat and hurried out of the office. Arriving at the café door, I took a deep breath and pushed the door in.
She was sitting in the corner of the café, still looking simple and bright. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw me approaching.
"It's great that you're here. She greeted me warmly and hugged me. I was a little cramped, but I still held her hand back.
"I didn't expect to see you here. I said sincerely, "You're still as beautiful as ever." "
Her face showed a little smugness: "You are the same, more handsome than before." It's been a long time since we've seen each other, how are you doing?"
"Everything is fine, I am married, my wife is pregnant. I replied lightly, secretly hoping that she would not ask any more questions.
"yes, we're all grown up. She nodded thoughtfully, then sat back.
I sat down across from her, but subconsciously moved closer to her. We looked at each other wordlessly, each other's eyes revealing a hint of melancholy. My hand unconsciously rested on the back of her hand, and she didn't dodge it, but grabbed my hand back.
At this ambiguous moment, she suddenly spoke: "We haven't seen each other for too long, let's take it as the last one." "
"What do you mean?" I was shocked.
She happily took my hand and we hurried out of the café.
We hurried to the door of a small hotel, and she took the initiative to hug me and kiss me frantically. I responded forcefully, as if to melt her into my body. We ripped each other's clothes off each other and tangled ourselves together, just like we did when we were young and strong.
Just as I was struggling inside, my phone rang suddenly, and it was a family call. I subconsciously pressed the mute, for fear of disturbing my first girlfriend, who was sleeping soundly. But my family's calls came one after another, so I had to press the answer button.
"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked cautiously.
"Hurry up and get to the hospital! Your wife is in labor suddenly, and the situation is very dangerous!" The family's voices were full of anxiety.
I was startled, and my face instantly turned pale. How could my wife suddenly go into labor? And the situation was still dangerous? I quickly hung up the phone and began to get dressed in a hurry. My first girlfriend was woken up by my movement and looked at me suspiciously.
"I'm sorry, my wife is in labor suddenly, I have to rush over immediately!" I explained anxiously as I got dressed.
She showed a sad look, but then she was relieved: "It's okay, you can go quickly." "
I left the hotel in a hurry and took a taxi straight to the hospital. Along the way, I felt guilty in my heart. If I hadn't fooled around, I might have been able to stay with my wife. What a despicable person I am!
When I came to the hospital, I was told that my wife had a very difficult birth, that the child had been born, but that she was in critical condition. I rushed into the delivery room, only to see my wife lying on the bed, her face pale, and she didn't even have the strength to speak. When she saw me appear, there was a hint of relief in her eyes.
She used her last strength and shook her head, as if to say, "It's okay." Then, her eyes slowly closed, and her hands hung limply.
"Wife! I broke down and screamed, and the doctors and nurses rushed me away and started resuscitating.
I gently stroked the child's cheek, tears welling up in my eyes. The child woke up at my movements and looked at me with his eyes slightly open. My heart was shocked, and I was determined to live well for this child!
I rushed into the delivery room and saw that the doctors and nurses around my wife were scrambling to save my wife. His wife's eyes were closed, her face was as pale as paper, and she could barely breathe. I felt the world spin around, my whole body was weak, and I almost collapsed to the ground on the spot.
"Save her! No matter what you do, you must save her!" I pleaded with the doctor, incoherent.
The doctors were still desperately trying to save them, but soon, a nurse shook her head weakly. My heart sank into the ice cellar, and it was as if all my blood had been drained. My wife left me and this world like this, and I didn't have time to say goodbye to her sincerely.
The nurses tried to pull me out of the delivery room, but I wouldn't leave. I hugged my wife's body tightly and wailed, like a child clinging to a beloved toy. My wife is the only one in my eyes, and everything else has become irrelevant.
Eventually, several strong men were called in and forcibly dragged me out of the delivery room. I struggled and almost broke my heart, but the other party's strength was too great for me to resist. After being dragged out of the delivery room, I collapsed in the hallway, covering my face in pain and crying loudly.
The nurses picked up our baby and wanted me to take care of it myself. But I was powerless to deal with it, and the whole person fell into deep despair. When the child saw me like this, he couldn't stop crying, and his heart-rending cry was extremely harsh.
Just then, my phone rang. I subconsciously picked it up, and it was my first girlfriend who called.
"Are you okay, what's going on?" Her voice of concern came to her.
I was silent for a moment, and then suddenly burst into a shrill laugh: "Hahahaha! You ask me if I'm okay? I'm doing well now! I betrayed my wife, I wasn't there when she gave birth, and in the end she died like this! Hahaha! Do you think I'm doing well?"
"No! Get out of here!" I yelled hysterically, "It's all because of you! It's all because of you, it's because of you, I'm going to betray my wife, I'm going to miss her last moments, get out of here, never be in front of me again!"
I slammed my phone to the ground and stomped on it a few times. The child was frightened by my sudden violent behavior and began to cry. I came to my senses in an instant, looked down at the child, and my eyes became extremely sad.
From that day on, my life went dark. I slept all day and occasionally woke up crying. My family tried their best to persuade me to cheer up, but I had completely lost the courage to survive. After my wife left, my heart felt like it had been hollowed out alive, and I couldn't hold anything.
I began to loathe myself, to hate myself, to resent myself. What a despicable person I am! How can I be worthy of my wife's affection? How can I be worthy of being the father of this child? I only deserve to die!
I staggered to the edge of the balcony with the baby in my arms. A night breeze blew, and I couldn't help but shiver. The child also seemed to feel the danger and cried incessantly.
Just as I was gathering my courage and preparing to jump, my wife's face popped into my mind. With tears in her eyes, she shook her head silently, as if to stop me from doing so.
From that moment on, I made up my mind to get back on my feet for the sake of my wife and children. I started working hard and taking good care of my children. Although I still cry uncontrollably in the dead of night, I never had suicidal thoughts again.
A few years passed, and I finally came out of my wife's death. Although I still think of her occasionally and cry bitterly, I can control my emotions. I am now fully committed to my work and taking care of my children, trying to be a good father.
One day, I received a strange call. After picking it up, a familiar voice came: "Hello, it's me." "
I was stunned, wasn't this the first girlfriend who told me to get out of the way? I had almost forgotten her, I didn't expect her to take the initiative to find me.
"Are you okay?" She asked with concern, "You were so emotional that day, I didn't think much about it and left." Later, I heard from my family that you were doing well, so I was relieved. "
"I just wanted to meet you and find out how you're doing. Her tone was a little hesitant, "If you don't want to, I can understand that." "
I thought about it for a moment and nodded, "Okay, but it's just a meeting." When is it convenient for you?"
Soon, we met in a café. Her appearance has not changed much, she is still the same pure and bright appearance. When she saw me, she had a look of joy on her face.
"You're doing well, your mental state seems to be much better than before. She laughs.
"yes, I've been trying to pick myself up for the last few years. I nodded, "I was so emotional that I said something nasty to you, and I apologize to you here." "
"Don't do that, that's exactly what I understand. She waved her hand, "I can't understand the pain you endured at that time." I'm so happy to see how you're doing now. "
We chatted like this, reminiscing about the past. She talked about the reason why we broke up that year, and I sincerely apologized to her. We used to love each other and end up parting, but now it seems that that relationship also gave us the opportunity to grow.
"How are you doing now? Do you already have a family?" I asked her curiously.
"I'm still alone, I've been working in the field. She lowered her head a little shyly, "Actually, I've always had some thoughts about you, that's why I did something like that back then." But then I figured it out, we've gone our separate ways, and I should bless you too. "
I nodded, mixed in my heart. If I hadn't been easily tempted by her, maybe my wife wouldn't have died. But at the same time, I am also glad that I finally came out of the haze and was not completely crushed by the entanglement of the past.
"Actually, I still have a secret that I haven't told you. She smiled suddenly and mysteriously.
"What's the secret?" I asked, confused.
"I have a daughter who is almost 8 years old. She said slowly, "She's the crystallization of us." "
My eyes widened in shock and I was speechless for a moment. I even have a daughter? This news undoubtedly hit me hard and turned my heart upside down.
"Why are you telling me now?" After a long time, I finally asked this question.
"Because you were at the lowest point in your life at that time, and you couldn't take the blow at all. She said sincerely, "I don't want to force you to be a father, so I keep it hidden." It was only when you came out of the gloom that I decided to let you know the secret. "
I nodded, grateful for her thoughtfulness and understanding. If she had told me the news directly, I was afraid that I would have been completely devastated.
"I just want you to know about it, and it's up to you to decide what the future holds. She said gently, "If you don't want to recognize this daughter, I can understand that." After all, everything back then was our own doing. If you want, we can adopt her over and give her a full family. You think about it slowly. "
I nodded, and suddenly felt a heaviness. I thought I had come out of the gloom, but reality always brought me new challenges. However, this time I was not afraid, because I already had enough courage and strength to face everything.
And just like that, we said goodbye sincerely. I returned home with my baby in my arms and pondered over my first girlfriend's proposal. This news has undoubtedly brought a new turn in my life, but I am not afraid. I am no longer the cowardly self I used to be, but a man who can face everything bravely.
