At the beginning of seven in the morning, the grass-green curtains still closed the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the master bedroom. The room was still dark, but the sound of running water in the bathroom had long since broken this tranquil atmosphere.

Everything was running as usual, and it was still the most ordinary daily life for the Yu family.

Two shadows, one big and one small, were warmly nesting in the jacquard purple-gold king-sized bed. The sleeping Li Qiao was awakened by the crisp sound of the glass suddenly falling, followed by the muffled sound of heavy objects overturning.

She seemed to have foreseen something, shouted "Yu Xiaoyang！" and rushed into the bathroom immediately.

Yu Ruoling closed her eyes and heard the disturbance from the outside world, and she woke up long ago when the sound of water flow started.

Feeling that the seat beside her was empty, she immediately opened her eyes and sat up from the bed to listen carefully to the movement in the bathroom next door.

She didn't really want to be found out that she was awake, she thought, but she heard Li Qiao's voice getting louder and louder, as if someone was urging her in a hurry.

She lifted the quilt, turned over, jumped out of bed and hurriedly walked away, while Yu Xiaoyang was paralyzed on the stool in the bathroom.

"What's wrong？"

"Ling, hurry up to the first floor and get daddy's usual medicine！"

Since the beating speed of the heart is still stable, and perhaps experiencing too much in an emergency situation, it is most beneficial to learn to control the brain early to achieve complete rationality in order to calmly analyze the whole situation.

She saw with her own eyes that her father, who had strong hands, could not even hold the cup, and only two-thirds of the water was full.

Yu went to the study, picked up the wireless phone in the room, turned around and asked Li Qiao.

"Do you want to call an ambulance？"

Naturally, she got a more urgent and urgent answer.

It may be just general high blood pressure and chronic myocardial infarction.

Two years ago, when she came back from school, her dad had a sudden attack in the company and drove from Zuoying back to Xiaogang to seek medical treatment.

Immediately after the diagnosis, he was sent to the operating room for a heart stenting operation. The doctor said that there was too much unclean excess fat blocking the blood vessels of the aortic branches, causing chronic myocardial infarction.

Later, after finishing the stent, father continued to do what he had to do. Maybe it shouldn't matter this time.

Yu Ruoling thought in a mess while guiding the ambulance staff to carry the stretcher into the living room.

This situation is quite familiar. The last time a stretcher came into the house was 4 or 5 years ago. Although the place is different, the time is different, and the characters are different, the purpose is always the same, and the destination is always...the same.

Li Qiao followed the two ambulance personnel downstairs anxiously, "Ling, you stay at home and wait for my call！"

"Okay."

Yu Ruoling took a deep breath, walked to the study, gently shaking the crimson cloth on the table, and a long water-sleeved dress unfolded impressively.

This is what He Xiyun has studied for a long time, and thought it is better to present the song in this form.

She picked up the same-color needle and thread prepared in the drawer and sewed it up slowly. Fortunately, the teacher said that the time was too late, so the test date was logically moved to the first section test of the next semester of the fifth grade, and she had a whole winter vacation to do well.

Looking at the half-finished clothes, she feels inexplicably...like -

Kind of ugly.

...

Yu was waiting, waiting for the phone to ring.

"How's it going？"

"Ling, the doctor said that Dad suffered from a brain stem stroke. We are now taking the ambulance to another hospital. You stay at home and wait. The group leader of the church home will pick you up. You should go to grandma's house first."

Yu Ruoling pretended not to hear Li Qiao's obviously crying nasal voice on the other end of the phone, obeyed and hung up the connection.

"I'm leaving here. "She looked back at the whole room, feeling a slight soreness between her breaths, "How long will it take to come back？"

Naturally, no one would answer her in the entire empty house.

*

"Teacher？...I want to suspend classes first. Just...I have a lot of homework to do at school. I want to get it done first. Yes, okay, let's go to dinner next time~"

Yu Ruoling hung up the phone expressionlessly, not wanting to admit that the half-coquettish voice just now was her own.

Go die, that's wicked, the whole family breathed a sigh of relief since dad went into stabilization in the ICU. Although Yu Xiaoyang's consciousness has not yet recovered, the coma index still remains around 4, but perhaps the closure of the five senses stimulates the soul's response to the outside world - there are many such examples, such as the dying patient suddenly speaks at the last moment, or says goodbye - Yu Xiaohui was sitting in the family lounge of the ICU while weeping and smiling.

"Brother reacted to what I said just now！"

Yu Hong Axiu was the first to get up and ask, "Really？How is he？"

"Brother is crying！"

"That's good, "Yu Xiaoyu breathed deeply, even her eyes brightened, "It's good news if it's okay, and tears also mean that he has a reaction to us, don't worry！"

Yu Ruoling browsing her phone on the cot in the lounge.

The attending doctor had indicated that the father's brain stem stroke was extremely severe, and that such symptoms would not normally survive for three to five days. However, her father recovered quickly within three months, with normal brain waves, normal heartbeat, and normal blood pressure.

Except for the large and small equipment and tubes on his body, almost everything was normal. All the medical staff in the ICU unanimously said "This is a miracle".

"A miracle. "She murmured, “My Lord, what is your will？"

She threw away the ukulele, and now threw away the guzheng, many and many...it was like entering a new era.

So...what's next？

*

A silver Ford sped through the gates of the Diane Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic.

The driver opened the car door and looked anxiously to help another woman who got out of the car from the back seat on her own. From the obvious bulging belly and the almost soaked skirt hem, it was almost certain that she was a pregnant woman who was about to give birth.

The woman's face was pale, and even her lips could not help trembling slightly.

"Doctor！Someone's going to deliver！"

The nurse at the counter hurried forward and brought Yu Xiaohui into the inner room.

After the phone call with her attending doctor, she found a wheelchair and worked with Yu Xiaoyu to transfer Yu Xiaohui.

Yu Xiaoyu stood outside the delivery room and couldn't do anything. She took out her mobile phone and dialed casually, totally out of mood.

As a result, Yu Xiaohui's husband, Wei Xiaowen, should have been notified first, but subconsciously called Yu Hong Axiu's mobile phone, and then Yu Hong Axiu communicated to Yu Ruoling, and Yu Ruoling contacted Wei Xiaowen.

"Hey uncle, auntie are about to 'come with that great thing'."She conveyed the most important information in a succinct manner.

So Wei Xiaowen, who was also at work, hurriedly asked for a leave from the company, and was anxious and excited to take the high-speed train all the way from Taoyuan to Kaohsiung.

Three hours later, he finally showed up at the door of the delivery room on the fifth floor of the clinic, wearing his uniform in a mess.

As a result, he found that it's turned out to be the most nervous person was himself only. The chilling of the three Yu family calmed him down, and then they began to discuss what to eat for lunch.

Within 10 minutes, Yu Xiaoyu and Yu Ruoling finally went out to buy lunch with inexplicable comfortable emotion, leaving a mother-in-law and a son-in-law waiting for the meal in the clinic.

Yu was sitting on the back seat of the motorcycle that big auntie had changed from home while waiting for Wei Xiaowen.

Her thoughts were a little vague, and she felt that everything that happened just now had a very strange feeling.

Trance, daze, isolation, dreaming, not in the same time and space at all, her back was straight in a daze.

Time and space are confused, modern and ancient are intertwined, separated and evolved into two independent individuals, like a crazy universe.

"Ling, it's here！"

She suddenly returned to her senses, and she got out of the car as if she had returned to normal, but there was still no answer to the question in her heart.

Yu Ruoling thought very seriously that according to scientists and science fiction worldviews, human beings may be just a bunch of data, then she may just be a "data disorder" or "fuse broken".

But that is wrong.

Her God said that human beings were created in His image. Therefore, this kind of weird feeling of being separated from the world, like being covered with a glass curtain, makes one seem to be standing on a high place looking down on all this, and the strange feeling of the soul being separated from the body is definitely not the reason for the wierd of the data circuit.

She and Yu Xiaoyu finished their meal ordering.

Yu Ruoling continued to think vaguely. Recently, she has become more and more strange, so strange that she feels that something is wrong. It was as if the connection with the human was broken, and the connection with the non-human deepened, and it was like being immersed in the sea.

All this is confusing.

Strange, she thought, but she liked it. Back at the clinic, Yu Ruoling solved the lunch like without taste it. For the first time in her life, she found that "eating" didn't seem to be a problem that should be taken seriously.

Even if she still likes to be close to delicious foods, but... as long as she doesn't die, what's the point of eating？

Satisfying personal desires is not a very important thing.

She drank the lemon black tea slowly, bit the straw unconsciously, and consciously knew a little more about the difference between "life" and "alive".

*

An elegant sound echoed in the living room on the second floor, the friction between the tortoise shell and the strings was almost inaudible, and the complex technique became fluid to use, jumping between different notes.

A "Usuli Boat Song" came along with the water, and burst out under the white fluorescent lamps, as if those songs, the sound of the boat and the water were only close at hand.

The music was cut off abruptly and stopped on a beat that should not have stopped.

She stood up, her right knee accidentally hit the protruding part of the tripod, Yu Ruoling cursed "by the way".

"Shit."

A day has passed, and there is still no news from Yu Xiaohui entering the delivery room yesterday afternoon until this morning.

She pressed her face down on the strings of Reddy, which had moved from home to her grandmother's house.

She deeply felt what "give birth" was, and was tired just thinking about it, and suddenly hurried downstairs and picked up the phone.

At 10:47, it was finally over.

Yu Ruoling slowly raised a smile, revealing a rare softness.

"What about the name？"

"I don't know. "Yu Xiaoyu said in a good mood, "They haven't taken it yet, it may take a while."

Hanging up the phone, Yu Ruoling sat on the black leather sofa for a while, took the paper bag that was placed on the keyboard, and took out a crimson long skirt with water sleeves and a fox mask that only covered half of her face.

"It's summer vacation and I still don't know where to put this."She muttered to herself.

This costume is a wonderful medium, allowing her to face up to her abnormality involuntarily, Yu thought.

Maybe she has always felt that she is inhuman in her mind and identity, just because she is out of tune with her peers or with......the whole world.
