After the ceremony, some people left and some stayed to take care of the aftermath. I rushed back to the Municipal People's Hospital, exhausted, but it was not yet time to visit Ye Zhan. Ye Zhan's parents were still discussing what to say to Ye Zhan in the afternoon, selecting stories that might be useful one by one. I walked over without making any noise and continued to sit by the wall, listening to the two adults telling stories. I have heard a lot from them in the past few days, which has given me a deeper understanding of Ye Zhan. The more I understand, the more I can't bear to part with him. He seems to have become an indispensable part of my life. Whenever I think of the lovely, sunny, and kind child in the mouths of Ye Zhan's parents who can no longer smile, I feel a burst of heart-wrenching pain.
When their conversation came to an end, I asked, "Uncle and aunt, have you eaten yet?" They were both stunned, and I immediately knew that they hadn't eaten yet. These days I have been the one who goes out to buy food, but they refuse to leave here. So I stood up and went out to buy food again. There are many small restaurants near the hospital, which are not only expensive but also not delicious. But there is no way, I still have to eat. I bought two servings of shaved noodles and was walking into the hospital when I heard someone behind me calling me, "Brother Hao!"
I turned my head and saw Qi Siyu running towards me. I had seen her once at the funeral in the morning. She was in a hurry and didn't say anything. She came here now, of course, to see Ye Zhan. Qi Siyu saw me holding a meal in my hand and asked me, "Hao, haven't you eaten yet?" I said I had eaten, and this was for Ye Zhan's parents. Qi Siyu was silent for a moment, and said, "When Ye Zhan and I were together before, I went to Ye Zhan's house to play a few times. His parents liked me very much."
I didn't say anything. There was no point in saying these things now. Besides, I instinctively rejected communicating with others these days. I rarely spoke unless it was necessary. I took the elevator to the top floor with Qi Siyu. I walked over and gave the meal to Ye Zhan's parents. Qi Siyu called out, "Uncle, Aunt." They were very tired. They nodded and said, "Well, you do it." As expected, she knew her. I leaned against the wall and didn't want to say a word. Qi Siyu sat next to me, hugged her knees with her arms, and buried her head deeply. Ye Zhan's parents ate a few bites and couldn't eat anymore. It wasn't because they thought it was unpalatable, but they really couldn't eat it. Ye Zhan was still in a deep coma. Even if we set out a full banquet for them, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to eat it.
When it was time for visiting in the afternoon, Qi Siyu wanted to go in too, but the nurse said, "It's already an exception to allow three people in, and you can't let one more in." This was indeed said at the beginning, and in fact, only two people could enter at most. I thought about it and gave this opportunity to Qi Siyu. Maybe a miracle would happen? After the three of them went in, I sat on the ground and waited.
This hour passed extremely long. I hoped that time would pass faster, maybe they would bring good news when they came out; but I also hoped that time would pass slower, because the seven-day deadline was getting closer and closer. Finally, when they came out, I was about to stand up and ask them about the news, but I saw that they still had sad faces, and I knew that there was still no news about Ye Zhan. My heart, which had been hanging in the air, fell again, and fell deeply into the bottomless abyss...
Ye Zhan's parents sat down with great effort. After several days of almost no sleep, no food and no drink, their bodies had been destroyed to a certain extent. Even the action of "standing up and sitting down" made them breathless. As soon as the two sat down, they burst into tears at the same time, each buried their hands between their legs and sobbed softly. Tomorrow, there is only tomorrow, the last day. If Ye Zhan still doesn't wake up tomorrow, there will be no more chances. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shed tears.
Qi Siyu looked at us, and suddenly returned to the door of the ICU, bent her legs and knelt down, as if praying for a miracle. Ye Zhan's parents were still crying, and I didn't care about Qi Siyu. This was the only way.
Time passed by minute by minute. For us now, time has become an absolute torture. Qi Siyu has been kneeling in front of the ICU door. Ye Zhan's mother went to pull her out twice, but Qi Siyu still stubbornly knelt on the ground. There was no choice but to let her kneel like this. In the middle of the night, I woke up in a daze and saw Qi Siyu still kneeling outside the door. How long has she been kneeling? It must have been seven or eight hours. God, if you can see it, please give this girl some hope.
I slept and woke up, but Qi Siyu didn't move at all, just kneeling straight. The nurse had advised her twice before, but it didn't work. In the morning, Qi Siyu was still kneeling there. I went over to pull her, but Qi Siyu still shook her head and said, "Brother Hao, you don't have to worry about me. I have an unshirkable responsibility for what happened to Ye Zhan. My conscience is already very uneasy, can you let me relieve some of the psychological burden?" I sighed and didn't care about her anymore.
I went out to buy some breakfast, came back and forced Ye Zhan's parents to eat some, and then gave some to Qi Siyu, who shook her head and refused to eat. I put the food on the ground and said, "Don't make us take care of you." Then I went back and sat down against the wall. After a while, Qi Siyu picked up the food and started eating. There were quite a few people who came during the day, because it was a critical moment for Ye Zhan to wake up, and Yang Mengying's affairs had also come to an end, so almost everyone came in groups to visit Ye Zhan.
Ye Zhan's parents no longer had the energy or mood to receive so many people, so I went forward to receive them one by one and told them about Ye Zhan's current situation, etc. Because loud noises were not allowed outside the ICU, and too many people were not allowed to stay, everyone stayed for a while and then left. When Yu Chengfei came, he told me that Yang Mengying's side was already settled, and her mother also returned to Beiyuan to live. When I thought about Yang's mother having to live a lonely life in the future, my heart ached even more. Yu Chengfei said: "Don't be too stressed, no one wants this to happen. And to put it in a big way, since you have chosen this path, you must be mentally prepared. Too many people have been injured and died on this road, it is impossible for everyone to be fine."
