Chapter 79 Chapter 79 [VIP]
Now it's time for Megan and Killer Croc to reunite.
When she asked, "Is he a child too?", the reliable adult Killer Croc replied, "Yes, a child about your age."
Megan said "Oh" slowly, and she didn't care much about it. She didn't like her peers, she didn't like other children. On the other side, the kid with the bright yellow cape was obviously unaware of their conversation. His plan failed, and he lost the person. After all, Killer Croc was an old Arkham man. However, he rarely felt curious and planned to hide it from Batman - he would definitely find out about this matter!
Young people are always full of enthusiasm, and accompanied by some small flaws, such as naivety, arrogance, and self-righteousness. Especially as "Robin", all his luck suddenly fell from the sky. The change of identity will bring excitement and make people excited. The identity of Robin alone is enough to be amazing!
Who doesn't like Robin?! Everyone doesn't like Robin!
Especially for street thugs, they are forced to make a living and do things that will get them scolded and beaten, but if they don't do them, they will starve to death... In fact, this is a beautified statement. To put it bluntly, what he did before was stealing and cheating. As for robbery, it is also a good way to make a living, but his age is there. Anyone who is taller and stronger than him can easily knock him down.
When his life takes a turn for the better... he just took the tire off the Batmobile and was caught by Batman.
But who says he can't like Robin? In fact, Robin is the favorite character of street kids. He's a teen idol, and they all aspire to him. He's a bit of a celebrity, with a lovable personality, a wisecracking tongue, and special abilities. He fights crime—how cool is that! He's also Batman's sidekick!
With the dream of becoming Robin, especially since he was chosen by Batman and became Robin after going through many tests, no young man would not be proud and excited about it, thinking that he must have considerable talent and ability to have achieved all this.
The unyielding young man made a decision, and even though the night run was interrupted, Megan still wanted to run enough mileage.
She completely forgot what happened before and finished her run seriously. However, since she had stopped exercising for a while, she found it difficult to run. In the end, Killer Croc was walking in front of her. She stared at the tip of the crocodile's tail on the ground in front of her before she finished her run. She was then brought back to the small building by Killer Croc.
So I spent Sunday like this, but luckily no one came to disturb me this time.
Megan returned to the special children's care center on Monday and continued to attend classes and play as usual. She still kept her plastic fish. One day, the lady who had given her the fish tank before gave her another fish.
But Megan doesn't want that.
Her eyes were emerald green, incredibly clear and bright, but most of the time they were empty. Megan saw the outside world, but she didn't necessarily have any cognition or perception of it. Such cognition and such gaze were extremely shallow, like a trace of water that quickly evaporated.
Looking at the little koi in the fish tank in the lady's hand, it was very beautiful and lively, swinging its tail and moving back and forth. At a certain moment, its head turned towards her, and they 'looked at each other'.
Megan said, “No minnows.”
The lady was a little surprised that she answered so quickly, "It has life, it's a lively little fish." The plastic fish has no life and will never respond, but Megan said nothing and just shook her head.
But she was prepared and took out a small plastic fish from behind her back, and said with a gentle smile: "If you have a partner, your little fish will not be lonely."
Megan still shook her head, but was a little confused, "Xiaoyu, I'm not alone." What is loneliness?
Megan didn't understand the adults' thoughts. After refusing, she returned to her dormitory. She picked up the small fish tank and took a look. Due to the movement, the fish tank tilted, the water inside swayed, and the small fish began to drift with the current. She put her hand in the water and shook it. The small fish bumped into her hand, which was a response to her.
Xiaoyu has responded to her, but only Megan knows it, and only she feels this way.
Then there was another painting class, and this time the teacher introduced herself to her, or rather, this time she only introduced herself to Megan, "My name is Misha Perez." Because in the process of getting along, she had discovered many problems. Megan's social skills were very weak. She ignored many people most of the time and was reluctant to respond.
But Misha thought she was a very polite and lovely child. Sure enough, after introducing herself, Megan looked at her seriously and pointed at herself with one hand, "Megan, Megan Damon."
The child was obviously waiting for a response, so Misha said, "Nice to meet you." The child nodded vigorously.
So this is the social way that she approves of. Using other methods or processes will only be ignored by Megan because she will not recognize or understand that it is also a way of understanding.
The painting class lasted two hours, and this time we changed the painting tools to pencils and crayons.
There are no longer easels in the classroom. Instead, there are desks corresponding to the number of students in the class. There is a large piece of sketch paper on each desk. Many children know what they want to draw, how to use the tools, and how to draw lines and colors to present it. Only Megan has an empty head.
She still had no expression and could not draw a single stroke with the pen. She did not think of anything with a concrete shape and did not want to draw at all.
After looking at the other children, Misha walked over to her and asked, "Still don't know what to draw?"
Megan looked up at her and nodded slightly, she looked aggrieved.
Misha had seen her holding a pen, at a loss, looking around, and finally realized that she was the only one who had not drawn. She seemed confused and wanted to hide herself. For a moment, she felt that she was out of tune with the other children.
So she stayed with Megan and said to her, "This is nothing, Megan, just follow me and learn, okay?"
“Learn some skills first, and when you have something you want to keep, or when you have people, things, and scenery you like, and you are moved by them and want to do something about it, you will be able to do it.”
"I think you may not understand yet. You are still a child, like a small seed that has just sprouted and is actually still absorbing nutrients. But in this way, there is more to look forward to in the future."
Misha brought a chair and sat next to Megan. Just as she was about to draw, she turned around and asked Megan, "Do you have a favorite animal?"
Megan: "Bear."
She smiled in surprise, her eyes filled with tenderness, stretched out a hand and placed it on Megan's head, and said to her: "It turns out that Megan is a little bear!"
It was the first time Megan heard such words, and she suddenly opened her eyes wide. Misha seemed to be thinking of something else, and her eyes showed love and compassion that was almost turning into substance and flowing out like honey. But the "honey" she expressed had already been received by Megan. The hot honey fell into her heart and activated a part of her emotions.
She was a little happy, "Bear, Megan Bear!" She expressed herself awkwardly.
Misha was also happy that she could express her emotions. After smiling, she asked Megan to watch her draw a teddy bear. It was very simple to paint the teddy bear with crayons. She used brown, and then added green eyes, a pink nose and mouth. It looked very cute.
The first time was a demonstration, and then Misha taught Megan how to draw step by step. However, Megan had to take a white crayon and draw a stroke on the paper, only to find that white paper and white crayon... are invisible.
Megan touched her hair and slowly realized that other colors were needed to show it, but she stubbornly refused to change crayons, so Misha taught her a little trick.
"Start with a white crayon, then paint a very light spot of the other color on the surface, and use your finger or a tissue to blend it out..." The white will not be white anymore.
The order can be changed, but the other colors must be lighter. Misha demonstrated to her and let Megan try it herself before she started teaching. Misha said as she painted, "Megan, um... little white bear."
"So do you live in the Arctic?" The polar bear is a symbol of white.
Megan, who had seen Animal World, followed along and drew. She had to finish one thing before taking care of another. She shook her head only after she finished drawing. Misha asked with a smile, but her response was serious.
Megan is a little white bear who came into the world ignorantly. She has to adapt to human society, but before that she has already traveled a long distance, and she still has a long way to go. Even if she already has a landing point, she still needs a direction to move forward so that her soul will no longer be lost.
She was going to find her North Star.
After this class, there were no other classes in the afternoon. After Misha packed up her things, she asked Megan, "Can I go with you?"
It looked like she had more to say, but Megan knew her and had more patience with people she knew, so she nodded. Then they went to Megan's dormitory together. Before going in, Misha asked if it was okay.
Megan didn't reject her. After they went in together, Misha also saw the small fish tank on the low table and the plastic fish inside. She squatted down and took a look, "It's a cute little fish." So is it really cute?
It was a plastic toy. Ever since Megan got it, she had only stared at it meaninglessly, never thinking about whether it was cute or good-looking. Now, after hearing Misha say it was cute, she suddenly said, "My friend."
It is Megan's very quiet friend, which does not need to have any meaning or life.
Misha did not question it, but just said, "That's great, can I be your friend?" She came to Megan and squatted down, trying her best to look at her at eye level. Now she asked very seriously, wanting to be friends with the child she liked.
Megan looked back at her quietly, and after exhaling, she looked down at her hands, then stretched them out with her palms facing forward.
Misha understood what she meant and put her hand print on it. When their palms were placed together, they became friends.
The older friend said, "Thank you for being my friend." Because being friends was Misha's wish, and Megan agreed to her request.
The child didn't respond and turned away silently. It was the first time someone said that to her... and then her furry head was touched.
The author has something to say:
It’s Megan the Bear! And Megan’s ideal is her North Star.
There is one thing I forgot to mention. Last week, Gemi told me that most variety shows with British and American themes can be released separately.
Originally, this was going to be the main DC, with a little bit of other stuff in mind (it's so hard to come up with themes), but thankfully I never got around to writing about the other themes, so now it's just DC! Happy!
