Hollywood Secret Garden

"Are you okay, Angela?" George Lucas, who sent the girl to the car, asked worriedly.

"It's okay...I'm fine..." The pale-faced girl shook her head in dismay, then remembered something and asked, "Are you sure no one saw me?"

"Sure, those guys just got the news, and they only had time to block the front door." Lucas spread his hands, "Besides, there are other people attracting attention-when did you start to be afraid of these guys?"

"No, it's not... I just have other things." Angela forced a smile and waved goodbye to the old man.It's just that she slumped in the position as soon as she got into the car, only feeling dizzy in her head, and her whole body seemed to be circling and falling forever without end in sight.

"Miss, where are we going?" Bucket, who was driving, asked at this moment, but Angela didn't reply for a while, and he glanced at the rearview mirror and asked several times.The girl finally came back to her senses, but she still stared blankly at the front with a pale face. After a while, she sat up straight and said in a hasty tone, "Go to 128 Brenket Street!"

Although it only took more than ten minutes to arrive at the destination, Angela urged Bucket to drive faster along the way. Although the sadness in her heart increased every time she got closer, the "Hurry up" on her lips always Didn't stop.

Finally coming to the gate, looking through the iron bars at the brightly lit villa where she once lived, Angela bit her lip for a long time before pressing the communicator.

"Who?" A tired voice came from the communicator after a while.

"...It's me, Kate, don't interrupt the call." Angela swallowed, trying to calm her trembling tone, "Let me in, please? I'll be fine in just a few minutes, please, Kate... ..."

A few minutes later, the door opened automatically. Facing the lights in the dark, Angela took a deep breath and walked in a few steps.It was not far from the gate to the entrance of the villa, so the girl quickly spotted the figure standing at the gate.

"Hi, Kate." Angela greeted timidly, but the other party didn't answer or move, with her back to the light, she couldn't see her expression clearly, obviously she didn't intend to let her in.

"What do you want to say?" Kate finally spoke, her voice was cold and hard but trembling imperceptibly.

"I want...I want to apologize...Kate, I'm sorry..." Angela stammered.

"Apologize? Did I hear you right, dear Miss Angela, are you apologizing to me?!" Kate's mocking voice sounded, with indescribable sharpness in her tone.

Angela's face turned pale, but she defended herself calmly: "I know I've been hiding it for too long..."

"Hiding it for too long?" Kate interrupted her unceremoniously, the tremor in her voice was so obvious, "Do you know how long I have been waiting for you, Angela! I kept telling myself before last year, I It’s just that I’m too suspicious, I should believe you, because I’m under a lot of pressure not to see you, what can I get?! Even so, even if I’m sad and sad, I still stubbornly believe that you will confess everything, and the relationship between you and them is just an accident ...And now, today, I realize how stupid I am! You have maintained a relationship with them for several years at the same time!"

With a bang, Kate slammed her fist heavily on the wall. Although Kate's expression could not be seen clearly, her wide-open eyes in the dark still clearly expressed her anger and sadness.Angela's body trembled. She knew Kate's irritable temper very well, but Kate had always been accommodating herself. Such an outbreak had only happened a long time ago. The helpless girl could only beg and repeat: : "Kate, Kate, let me explain..."

"Do you know how worried I was when I saw you and gangsters fighting in the street on TV? Do you know how touched I was by what you said on the phone on 911?! Know how happy I was when you said that after graduation, you invited everyone to go to sea for vacation Do you!" The other party's tone finally slowed down, and then choked up, "I love you, Angie, I love you...but, do you love me?"

As if a knife had been pierced into the heart and kept stirring viciously, Angela covered her chest with her pale face and almost arched her body, she still pleaded with a weak voice: "Kate, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I Really really wrong, I was going to wait a few more days...give me a chance, please..."

"Get out of here." Kate shook her head slightly, her voice finally brought tears into her voice, "Leave me alone."

As Kate said, she turned and covered her mouth and walked into the villa, the lights flashed, and her face was full of tears.

"No, Kate, please..." Angela wanted to step forward and grab him, but she couldn't move her limp feet.

"Get out of here." After a heartbroken sentence, the door of the villa was shut heavily in front of the girl's eyes.

Angela stared blankly at the villa, watching the lights inside go out one by one, tears rolled down her face unconsciously.Why... is this so?If... If I were earlier... Is it just...

She turned around abruptly, wiped her tears and hurried out of the vestibule to get into the car.

"Go to 71 Lennells Street, hurry up." Angela said with a choked voice.No matter how she wiped it off, tears would keep rolling out of her eyes.In the end, the girl simply gave up wiping, regardless of her image, picked up the phone and made a call, but the bodyguard in front was silent.

After arriving at the destination, the message from the mobile phone was either that the dialed mobile phone was turned off, or that the landline phone was not answered.Almost desperate, Angela jumped out before the car stopped, rushed to the door and rang the bell.

"Please, Jessie, don't do this, open the door, Jessie." Angela choked and muttered and rang the doorbell desperately. She knew that Jessica must be inside, just when the doorbell rang for the third time. One window had been turned on, only to be turned off again immediately.

But no matter how Angela pressed it, there was no response at all. In the end, an old man who lived next to him was so quarreled that he opened the door and leaned out half of his body and shouted: "If you press it again, I will call the police!"

The girl shivered, and finally stopped, lowered her head, tried her best to control her emotions, and said in an excuse, "Yes... I'm sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you, I just... want to find the girl who lives here."

"No one responded after pressing for so long, she must not be at home." The old man said impatiently.

"I just... have an urgent matter with her..." Angela wanted to say something, but the other party interrupted unceremoniously: "You can come tomorrow! Don't even look at what time it is, you young people Will wander outside all night and all night. As long as you press again, I will call the police immediately!"

After the old man finished speaking, he entered the independent apartment cursing, while the girl stood there for a while and finally returned to the car, with tears rolling down her face again.Why...why won't you give me a chance, Jesse?

"Miss, where are we going?" Bucket's deep voice sounded again.

Angela didn't answer, but just stared blankly ahead with blurry eyes. She didn't wipe away her tears until he asked again, and searched for the address book from her handbag.

"Hello, this is the Monte Carlo Hotel, what can I do for you?" The voice of a male receptionist in the hotel's lobby soon came over the phone.

"Please pick up Miss Natalie Portman." Angela controlled her emotions and said in a calm tone.

A few seconds later, an apologetic voice came from the other side: "I'm sorry, Miss Natalie checked out three or ten minutes ago."

The phone almost fell from her hand, and the girl holding her chest firmly asked calmly, "Where did she go? I'm her friend. I have urgent business with her. She shouldn't be staying outside at such a late hour."

"It should be to the airport. According to Miss Natalie herself, she needs to go back immediately because of something at home."

Pata, the phone was dropped in the car, and Angela, who was slowly slumping on the seat, flashed despair in her eyes.She curled up her legs, stepped on the seat, hugged her knees and buried her head deeply. It took a long time before she let out a heart-stopping sob. The trembling figure was so lonely, as if she had been abandoned by the world. .

The bodyguards were still sitting in front, silent as if petrified.

As the last syllable of the speaker fell, the sound of crackling balloon explosions and spraying of colored stripes sounded immediately.The graduates who were still sitting on the chairs cheered and took off their hats and threw them into the sky. The lively graduation ceremony will always belong to them.

"Please smile." The photographer said so and pressed the shutter, leaving a group photo of the girl in a bachelor's uniform and her mother, but the girl's smile still seemed uncomfortable.

"You don't seem to be in a good mood, Chris." Elena, who was tidying her daughter's sideburns, asked worriedly.

"Probably because I haven't slept very well these days, so I look a little tired." Angela, who was a little pale, forced a smile, and hugged her mother comfortingly, "Don't worry, Mom, I'm fine."

"It's really all right?" Elena looked at her daughter without blinking her eyes, "Then why did Kate suddenly ask me to quit the Brenket villa?"

"She quit the lease?" Angela showed a look of astonishment, but immediately adjusted, "She probably wants to buy a villa of her own in Los Angeles, so she can't keep renting a house like this?"

Seeing that her mother was still looking at her with questioning eyes, the girl sighed and pressed her shoulders: "Okay, Mom, everyone has their own secrets, you can't always want to know everything."

"Okay, okay, I won't ask anything, so it's okay?" Elena opened her hand helplessly, and Jared finally walked over from the crowd: "Hi, honey. "

"You are finally willing to come here, Jedi, should I thank God?" Elena said calmly.

"Come on, Mary, I definitely need to have a few words with them on this occasion." Jared hurriedly defended.

"Is there anything more important than your daughter's graduation ceremony?" Elena asked.

"Okay, Mom," Angela smoothed things over, "Daddy has been busy all the time, we all know that."

"Hey, Chris, are you helping me or blaming me?" the father said dissatisfied.

"I'm just telling the truth." Angela shrugged mischievously.

Jared looked at his daughter with his hands on his hips for a while, then shook his head with a smile, and said apologetically, "By the way, Chris, I'm afraid we won't be able to have dinner with you tonight."

"Why?!" Elena asked first, frowning.

"Because there is a reception that we must attend tonight, we have to rush back to Los Angeles. You have to attend, too, Mary." Jared said and mouthed his wife, and Elena frowned even deeper. Saying something, the daughter's voice sounded first: "It's okay, Mom, you go back first, anyway, I'm going to be back in a few days, and I'll just make up for it at that time - and, I think Willie and Ike will agree with this opinion of."

After thinking for a few seconds the mother accepted the advice: "Well, honey, be careful with everything."

"We're waiting for you to come back, Chrissy," said the father as well.

After the two sides hugged, the parents said goodbye to their daughter and left.When the backs of her parents disappeared into the crowd, Angela quickly left the scene of the graduation ceremony, leaving no one who wanted to strike up a conversation.

She found a secluded corner and took off her bachelor's robe, then sat down on a bench beside her and fell into a daze quietly.The joy of graduation and the presence of parents for the ceremony evaporates when the hustle and bustle fades away.What was replaced was the confusion, entanglement and pain deep in my heart.

When she rushed back to Cambridge a few days ago, she found that everything related to Natalie had disappeared from the dormitory. The administrator said that it was because Natalie rented an apartment outside.

Facing the vacant bedroom, Angela's heart seemed to be torn into pieces. She went to the classroom, the library, and the places where she had been together in the past to find Natalie, wanting to apologize and explain clearly to her, but unfortunately the other party Although the color is pleasant to answer, the eyes are always cold, and they don't give her a chance to be alone at all.

Why did you hesitate so much in the first place? Why?Angela covered her face and let out a long sigh. She had never hated her indecision so much.At this time, the cell phone rang suddenly, and the girl took it out gloomily and immediately revealed the light of surprise after seeing the phone number clearly, and pressed the answer button tremblingly: "Kai... Kate?"

After a long time, a faint sigh came from the other side, hitting Angela's heart with great force with sadness and heartache: "Angie...let's end it."

The feeling of dizziness rushed into her mind, and Angela shook. If she hadn't been sitting on the bench, she might have fallen to the ground.The girl was breathing heavily with a pale face, and the cold sweat on her forehead kept breaking out. After a long time, she opened her mouth with difficulty and jerky: "You...you are joking... Kate..."

"I didn't," Kate over there sighed again, with a kind of sadness that was greater than the weight of death, "let's end it, I can't... I can't be with a..."

"Don't... don't do this to me, Kate..." Angela desperately covered her mouth to keep herself from crying.

"I'm sorry...I wanted to say I wish you happiness in the future...but I couldn't say it...goodbye..." Kate's tone was filled with tears, and she hung up the phone.

"How could this be...how could this be!" Angela gritted her teeth and dialed the number, but unfortunately there was a voice that the user had turned off the phone.

hateful!Anxious Angela suddenly raised the phone and was about to throw it down, but in the end she put it down slowly and hugged her head dejectedly.She wants to cry but dare not cry, she wants to yell but dare not yell, because although the place is remote, there are still many people passing by from a distance, she is a genius, a national idol, and she has her own plan to carry out, How could she do something that damaged her image? !

No, no, there is still a way, and it can be redeemed.Angela suddenly raised her head and began to pack her things quickly.Go back to Los Angeles immediately and ask Kate to forgive herself if she begs.

At this moment, the cell phone rang again suddenly, startling the girl.Angela picked it up with some trepidation, and her face turned pale after seeing the phone number clearly.

Shouldn't you...

She pressed the answer button and tried to hold her breath: "Jessie...Hi..."

After a long while, there was a low sob over there, and Angela's heart was moved immediately, and she comforted her with kind words: "Don't do this, Jesse, I...I apologize..."

The crying over there was even more intense, each sound was like a knife was carved on the girl's heart.

"It's over between us..." Jessica's heartbroken voice came from the other side.

"J...Jessie!" Angela, who had just emerged from the abyss, was grabbed by the neck by a fierce big hand and pushed into the water violently. She was so cold that she could barely breathe.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to be sad anymore, I don't want to be sad, I don't want to cry anymore...I'm sorry, Angie...please..." she whimpered, appearing to be in great pain.

A tear fell from Angela's dazed face. Jessica's begging cut her heart full of holes into countless pieces. She never thought that she would bring such great pain to Jessica.

Hanging up again, the phone slipped and fell on the chair. For a moment, the world seemed to lose all color, leaving only numbness and confusion. Angela stood up like a walking dead, and staggered forward.

After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly realized that she was in front of the dormitory.Twitching the corners of her mouth and smiling bitterly, she walked into the dormitory and came to her room, opened it and walked in.

"Miss Natalie?" As the professor reminded her, Natalie, who was looking out the window, finally came to her senses.

She smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry, Professor Bovill, I want to go to something else."

"It's okay." Professor Bovill looked out of the window, showing a clear smile, "You will be one of them in the next few days, I even think you have the ability to graduate now, this paper I Definitely an A+."

He didn't notice the awkward look on Natalie's face when she heard the word "graduation."

"Thank you, Professor," Natalie immediately adjusted her emotions, "It's an honor to receive such a comment from you."

"You deserve it." The old man shrugged.

"Then..." Natalie was about to get up and leave the other party's office, when she suddenly thought of something and sat down again, "Professor, can you agree to my presumptuous request?"

"What is it?"

"I want to analyze the psychology of a... lesbian..."
