Seeing him, Huong quickly withdrew her hand, her face clearly showing concern. She secretly looked at him and then at the other man. As if afraid he would do something detrimental to he
Cuong pretended not to see her, his cold eyes did not look at her, he headed straight towards the front desk to pay. The other man also said to Huong:
– Go outside and wait for me. I’ll pay and we’ll go home.
Huong nodded slightly and said “yes” and quickly went out. As soon as she walked out the door, Huong saw Cuong’s familiar back. She quickly ran to grab his hand.
– I…
Cuong forcefully pushed Huong’s hand away, his voice became cold:
– Please respect yourself! One should not be too greedy. Don’t step on two boats with one foot or you will fall into the water. Please get out of my way and let me go!
After saying that, Cuong walked past her, opened the door and sat in the car
Watching the taxi disappear, the corners of Huong’s eyes suddenly became wet. She doesn’t know how she feels now. While she was lost, suddenly a voice startled her:
– Done, let’s go!
Huong pretended to yawn, raised her hand to wipe her tears, smiled brightly, turned around and gently looked at the man.
– Yes, let’s go home.
…
I don’t know how much Cuong drank. I only saw empty bottles on the floor. The burning feeling in my throat doesn’t ease the pain in my heart. My heart hurts so much, it hurts so much! I don’t know why I feel this pain. It choked his breath. Cuong was going crazy right now, he wanted to destroy everything.
People say alcohol helps people forget everything, he also drank a lot to forget her. But why, the more I drink, the more I remember? Images from the past came rushing back one after another, her figure became more and more sharp, the more she wanted to forget, the more deeply imprinted it became in her mind.
He cried again, crying like a child, not knowing how to forget her. He just knows how to drink, drink and drink.
Suddenly, an uncomfortable feeling arose, he covered his mouth and rushed towards the toilet, Cuong vomited a foul-smelling black and red mucus. The body involuntarily went limp, lost all strength, and fell unconscious. Not knowing how long it had been, the room echoed with the sound of pounding on the door and calling his name. Ignoring the call, he continued drinking. The calling and banging on the door also began to fade and disappear. Maybe they’ve given up, given up like you, determined to forget their first love. The space became quiet again, with nothing but the sound of drinking that Cuong made
A while later,
The room suddenly echoed with a rumbling sound, as if someone was trying to break down his door. That sound broke the silence in his heart. He brought the bottle of wine to his lips, took another large sip, and staggered to open the door. But the alcohol did not let Cuong do so. Before he could step forward, he fell down and was unable to get up.
Just as he was about to stand up again, the door collapsed and a group of people rushed inside. The atmosphere in the room made everyone grimace and cover their noses. A foul smell, fishy and sour, that smell is difficult to describe in words. Just as he was about to ask, an uncomfortable feeling rose from his throat. Unable to control himself, he vomited everything in his stomach. Again that black and red water gushed out. The body lost its strength and was about to fall.
Seeing Cuong’s condition, a figure rushed to help him. In my ear is Khac’s call:
– Strong! Are you okay?
– I’m okay.
Having said that, Cuong had exhausted his last strength, and he gradually fainted.
– Strong!…
That call grew fainter and fainter according to his vague consciousness, everything became terrifyingly quiet. Cuong no longer knew what was happening around him.
…
When Cuong woke up, he found himself in a completely strange place. Thanks to the necklace stuck on his wrist, Cuong knew he was in the hospital. Looking around, there was no one else here besides him. He sighed, sat up, raised his hand to pull out the pendant, when there was a shout:
– Hey, that guy! What are you doing, do you want to die? Lay!
The shouting startled Cuong, he looked in the direction where the shouting came from. The person who just arrived was a girl wearing a white blouse, wearing thick glasses, holding a file in her hand and walking in quickly. Cuong didn’t pay attention to the girl. He raised his hand to snatch the necklace again. Seeing him do that, the girl quickly ran over, threw Cuong’s hand away, and shouted loudly:
– Hey you! If you want to die, then finish your treatment, leave the hospital, and then die. Don’t die now, to avoid affecting the reputation of our hospital!
Having said that, she roughly pushed Cuong down on the bed. Because he was afraid of girls, before her hands could touch him, Cuong quickly lay down on the bed. He lay still without moving even his arms. Her face showed fear. Looking at his unsightly expression, she laughed and said as if to comfort him:
– That’s right, lie still for me. When you leave the hospital, you can do whatever you want.
Cuong nodded slightly, then lay still like a statue. She briefly checked the IV needle, saw it was okay, then turned to ask:
– Now, how do you feel inside?
His voice trembling slightly, he softly answered:
– I… I’m okay. When can I leave the hospital?
When the girl saw Cuong asking that, she changed her attitude and said as if shouting:
– You still want to go home after being like this? What are you going back to? If you want to die then just go home?
He was already afraid of girls, but being yelled at made him even more afraid. He said in a faltering voice:
– I… I… I…
