【Angel Night】Shrub

Kurt's talent was far stronger than he had imagined. They escaped from Worthington's house and landed on the deck of the freighter.

At that time, the boat was in the middle of the vast ocean, and they hid in the cracks of the container full of bananas. Everything seemed to happen in a dream. The happiness came so suddenly that neither of them was ready to welcome it.

They couldn't move around on the freighter, and they didn't know where their destination would be, so they told each other their visions for the future.

A few days later, the freighter docked temporarily, and Warren and Kurt finally disembarked.Warren sold his watch for two boat tickets to Paris.

They took only each other, a Bible and a cross, and drifted in the sea.The other passengers cast strange glances at them, and Warren stared back one by one. After that, Kurt was unwilling to appear in front of people, and Warren also accompanied him. The two often appeared on the deck when there was no one in the middle of the night or at dawn.Countless young girls or gorgeously dressed women cast shy or ambiguous glances at Warren, but he turned a blind eye to them.They stick together all the time, confide in each other, and share all the little secrets in their hearts.Back in their room on a stormy day, Warren listened quietly to Kurt reading the Bible softly, and then pressed him on the bed while the sound was drowned out by the waves until the book in his hand fell to the ground. On the ground, until it can no longer be held.

They made fun of each other for being Romeo, and fought over who was Juliet, fantasizing about life after going ashore, and using scattered sentences to piece together the desired future.That was probably the happiest time of his life.

However, good luck will not always be with him.

Facing the language barrier at first, rash decisions began to take their toll.When they got off the freighter, Warren only wanted to leave the United States as soon as possible, and didn't care about the destination at all. Now that they arrived at the destination, they were suddenly overwhelmed by unfamiliar languages, and only then did they feel the difficulty of the problem.Their combined French vocabulary is not enough for everyday life, and Warren plans to immediately transfer to a plane or another boat, at least to an English-speaking country.

More serious problems lay ahead of him, and they didn't have much money left.They are all minors, and Kurt is a mutant. To take him out of the country, he spent more than half of the watch money, and spent a lot of money on the ferry for more than ten days. They simply discussed , decided to stay in France first, at least make enough money to travel to England, and then make other plans.

Kurt advised him to find a place to stay first.

They took a lot of effort to find an intermediary who could speak English. Kurt was inconvenient to see people, so he hid on the ceiling.The man looked at him for a long time. Although Warren was wearing exquisitely crafted clothes, they were shabby and dusty due to the bumpy journey.Most likely it was the play of the troubled son, the agent thought about it, and saw that he was in a hurry to find a place to live. He negotiated with Warren a few times, and finally settled on a basement with an expensive rent.

The agent took the money, bragged about the basement, gave Warren the keys and address, and left.Warren took Kurt with him, and it was inconvenient for an intermediary to guide him.When he actually arrived at the house, he was so angry that he blurted out swear words. There was a small bar for cooking in the small room, a simple public bathroom in the corridor, and the rest was a dilapidated double bed. The only place better than the ordinary basement was a small window.He was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he has never seen such a room where it is difficult to breathe even when he turns around. He just thinks that this is not a place for people to live in, and he is so angry that he wants to find an intermediary to trouble him.Kurt stopped him, and persuaded him for a long time. He thought it would be good to find a place that would accept mutants, so Warren had to give up. Kurt probably cleaned up the dusty room, at least The beds were made, their dusty coats and clothes washed, and Warren agreed to rest for the day before looking for work tomorrow.

"You know you're not going to get a job, right?" Warren sighs, wrapping him in his arms, and they both fall into the freshly laundered bed.

Kurt's Bible lay neatly on the table.He raised his head and kissed Warren's forehead, hugged him back, and whispered dreamily: "Things will always get better."

The next day, Warren went to find a job full of confidence. He felt that he was omnipotent, and was quickly thrown cold water by reality.

Not being able to speak French made him lose a lot of opportunities, but several modeling agencies offered him an olive branch, but he was afraid that his family would find him if he appeared in an advertisement.He didn't have any special skills, and in the end he could only run into walls everywhere.He wandered through the streets and alleys of Paris in a state of desperation, and finally agreed to have only one nightclub and bar for him.

The shop owner is a well-informed person. Although Warren can't speak French and likes to put on a bad face, he has outstanding looks. As long as he stands there and doesn't speak, customers are willing to buy it.He negotiated the working hours and salary with Warren, asked him to start working tomorrow, and boldly advanced half of the salary in advance at Warren's request.Warren held the money, although he was unwilling to nod and bow to others, but he finally felt at ease, thinking that they would soon save enough money to get rid of that completely non-soundproof basement, and the pace was fast. Much lighter.

Kurt had nowhere to go during the day and could only stay in his room.As the time in France grew longer, his schedule became more regular.After seeing Warren off each morning, he began to slowly clean the small room.He also goes out, usually around seven in the afternoon, and every time he goes out, he has to pack himself tightly to attract attention, otherwise it will cause more unnecessary troubles.Kurt’s route is also very fixed. After going out, go to the small supermarket within a 15-minute walk, buy some cheap potatoes and cauliflower, then turn back, pass by the bakery, go in and buy a few baguettes, and then go home. They don’t have much money left. Much, every dollar Kurt didn't want to waste.

Their difficult neighbors hadn't met him face to face, and hoped they would never meet, Kurt made a silent wish in his heart.

Warren returned with a wide smile on his lips.

"I found a job!" He dashed into the room, bringing back a pack of rose seeds and good news.The fragile door lock was vulnerable under his impact, he hugged Kurt and spun around happily.

Kurt also showed a pleasant smile on his face: "Congratulations!"

"Everything will be fine." They pressed their foreheads against each other, immersed in joy, and before the bag of seeds was planted, it had already taken root in their hearts and grown dazzling flowers.
