My heart had sunk to the bottom, as if the whole world had lost its color. I trembled as I walked to the door of the ICU, knelt down silently, and tears silently slid down my cheeks. There was no hope, no hope!
Oh, God, are you really unwilling to see any miracles? I stroked the door of the ICU, already crying my eyes out. I just attended Yang Mengying's funeral yesterday, and today I got the bad news that Ye Zhan would never wake up again. Oh, God, how are you going to torture me? I banged my head against the door of the ICU, but I didn't feel any pain at all, which was far less than the pain in my heart.
Oh God, what do you want me to do to let such a kind boy go?
I would rather kneel down for the rest of my life just to get a warm smile from him. How about that? How about that?
Tears filled my face. I have cried so many times these days, but I have never been as desperate as I am now.
Several nurses tried to persuade us not to be too sad, but no one listened to them. They were all crying in despair. Those in the yard didn't know that Ye Zhan would never wake up again.
"Don't be too sad." The doctor sighed and said, "According to our professor, vegetative patients live in the safest place they have built themselves, a place where no one and nothing can hurt them. You can say that they like that place and feel happy living there, so they don't want to wake up. You have to be more open-minded. He lives happily in another world, otherwise he would have woken up long ago."
Ye Zhan's parents cried a little less after hearing these words. Yes, isn't it a good thing for Ye Zhan to live in a place where he thinks he is happy and safe? The doctor then said, "The world he builds must be more beautiful than this world. You should be happy for him, because he will never have sorrow, worry, or sadness again..."
Hearing this, my heart suddenly trembled. The world that Ye Zhan didn't want to wake up in was... was...
I stood up and said tremblingly, "Doctor, can you let me go in again?"
The doctor looked at me in confusion and said, "No, the hospital has a rule that you can only visit during permitted hours."
I walked over, trying hard to suppress my emotions, and said, "Doctor, please, let me in for once. I want to talk to him again, maybe... maybe..." I didn't dare to say the words after "maybe". I was afraid that Ye Zhan's parents would rekindle their hope after hearing it, and if their hope was dashed in the end, it would be too much of a blow to them.
"This..." The doctor was still a little embarrassed.
"Please!" I knelt down in front of the doctor, tears welling up again: "After today, he will become a complete vegetable, right? Let me talk to him again, please, please!"
"Hey, don't." The doctor immediately helped me up: "Just go in, there's no need to kneel down. Well, then you go quickly and come back quickly. If anything happens, I can't take the responsibility." Then he called a nurse next to him and asked her to take me in.
In the cubicle inside the ICU, I put on a mask, a cap, disposable sterile clothing, and shoe covers, and tremblingly walked towards Ye Zhan's bed. The ventilator was still operating steadily, and Ye Zhan still closed his eyes and looked pale.
"Ye Zhan..." I called softly, bent down, leaned over his bed, looked at his face, and said, "Can you hear my voice? I'm Wang Hao." Ye Zhan didn't move, didn't respond at all, as if he had been isolated from the world.
"Ye Zhan, I know you can hear me." I breathed heavily, but made my voice soft. "Besides, I know where you are. I've been to that place, right?"
Ye Zhan still didn't move. I continued, "In front of you is the blue, calm, endless sea, and under your feet is the white, soft sand. The sun shines warmly on you, and the breeze gently brushes your cheeks. The whole world is empty, and here you are the only one. You can sing, run and jump here, and no one can hurt you or approach you. Right, are you in such a place?"
It was very hot in the ICU, and I was sweating in a short while. Ye Zhan still didn't respond, so I continued, "You hid here alone, have you forgotten me? Didn't you say that I am the person you trust most in this world? I have been looking for you for a long time, braving the wind and waves, crossing mountains and rivers. Ye Zhan, do you see it? There is a lonely boat on the ocean, and I am standing on the deck of that boat, riding the wind steadily towards you. Ye Zhan, you can hide from everyone, but you can't hide from me."
"Ye Zhan, you said we would be good brothers for life, so how could you leave me alone and hide here? Now I have reached the shore and gently jumped off the beach. Ye Zhan, look at me, I have been looking for you for a long time. I am so happy now, don't you want to talk to me?"
"Ye Zhan, talk to me. I am your best brother in this world, and I am willing to bear all the suffering and sorrow with you..." I stared at Ye Zhan nervously. I didn't know if this would work, but I had to give it a try.
"Ye Zhan, I'm so tired. I've been drifting on the sea for seven days and seven nights just to find you and talk to you. Don't you want to pay attention to me? You're sitting on the beach, enjoying the sunshine and breeze. Don't you want to share these with me?"
"Hmm..." Ye Zhan's mouth suddenly moved. My heart beat several times faster!
"Do you... want to eat coconut?" Ye Zhan said softly.
My tears suddenly welled up, and my whole body was
My blood started boiling and my hands and feet were shaking.
I couldn't wait to say, "I'll eat it, of course. I'll eat as much as you pick for me. If you can, you can stuff me to death!"
