Chapter 179: Father and son wrestling

"Morning." After Uma got up in the morning, she saw Charlize sitting on the sofa and read the newspaper, and said politely.

"Morning." Charlize looked up from the newspaper and ‘showed’ a friendly smile to Uma.

Uma noticed Charlize's friendly smile. As a'female', she keenly caught this smile and was sincere and friendly, which is really weird. Uma met Charlize several times before, but Charlize never showed her friendliness, so that Uma once thought Charlize liked Hugo, so she showed jealousy, although she later denied it. This kind of'sex' is possible, but today's attitude has never appeared before.

Uma wanted to explore the specific reasons, because the ‘female’ people knew the ‘female’ people, and Charlize’s change could not be unreasonable. But then Uma thought for a while, and was overwhelmed by inner curiosity. No matter what the reason, Charlize was able to show kindness to himself now, which couldn't be better. Uma knows that Hugo has a very good relationship with friends like Charlize and Alex, and she does not want to be excluded from Hugo’s circle of friends, so the situation is indeed very good now.

"I'm really sorry last night, let you stay upstairs for the surprise I prepared for the ‘door’." Uma paused slightly and expressed her apology in a friendly manner.

Charlize put the newspaper down and looked at Uma politely, "Hehe, nothing, just upstairs."

Charlize actually still doesn't like Uma. It's not that Uma did something wrong, nor is it because Uma and Hugo are developing smoothly, but simply because the aura between the'women' is incompatible. She doesn't hate Uma. But it does not mean that she can live peacefully with Uma. But after the events of last night, Charlize knew that although Uma and Hugo did not know if they were formally dating, the two of them had indeed developed from dating, so she had to make a good one. The duty of a friend.

As a friend, especially a friend of the opposite sex, if you care too much about each other’s emotional life, it is easy to cause the “girl” to become jealous and cause unnecessary misunderstandings; similarly, if you make inappropriate comments to your friend’s “girl” friend Remarks, this also depends on the occasion, otherwise it will trigger friends’ landmines and cause unpleasant troubles, and in the end, you will end up looking in the mirror-inside and outside are not people, and the friendship between friends will also be tested.

Now, Hugo and Uma’s relationship is in love, whether it’s just developing, anyway, it’s a benign development, Charlize knows that he doesn’t need to express too much opinion, especially when Hugo didn’t ask himself. In the case of her opinion, she showed appropriate friendliness, and it was the most sensible choice if she didn’t intervene without asking.

Therefore, Charlize put away his unkindness and showed basic respect to Uma, as well as proper kindness.

Uma received Charlize’s friendliness. She originally wanted to have a few more ‘friends’, but found that there was no way, because the aura between her and Charlize was still wrong. That's how ‘girl’s’ students ‘made’ friends, so in the end Uma just walked towards Charlize, smiled, nodded, and then walked quickly to the kitchen, started pouring coffee, and then returned to Hugo’s room with the coffee.

Charlize looked at the corridor leading to Hugo's room and was sluggish for about a second, then withdrew his attention and read the newspaper again. When Carl came downstairs to call her, he got up quickly and was ready to work on the crew-Charlize was not late today, she got up early and was ready, and even had time to read the newspaper.

Uma didn't stay for long, and soon began to re-dress and prepare to leave. Hugo holding the quilt, crawling on the ‘bed’, said pitifully, "Can’t you stay longer?"

When Uma looked back, she saw Hugo’s pitiful expression, her mouth slightly bowed, and her long and narrow peach blossoms with watery eyes. The innocent and sad eyes made people really unbearable. Uma renewed her mind. Sitting on the edge of the'bed', I gently scratched Hugo's nose with my fingers, "I must go home for Christmas, you know."

Hugo hugged the quilt and made two muffled noises, "You can go back tomorrow."

Seeing this man acting like a five-year-old child, Uma couldn't help but chuckled, and couldn't help but lower her head and stamped a ‘kiss’ on the man’s forehead. "Tickets to New York are not so easy to buy. It's Christmas." Uma's father is a professor at Columbia University. Her family lives in New York. Uma came to Los Angeles to develop her career as an actress.

Hugo bit his'lip' and whispered something like "you can drive". Uma couldn't hear her clearly, but looking at Hugo's childish and cute appearance, her smile opened up. "It's not that I won't come back. I will come back after Christmas. This year we can celebrate the New Year together."

Hugo realized that 1992 was about to pass, and his first year in Los Angeles was about to turn the page. Um, when he got here, he was more serious, raised his head and gently bit Uma’s ‘lip’, "Stay at home for a few more days, and be with your family.

"

"Don't tell me to come back soon?" Uma chuckled lightly.

"I'll clean up you when you come back to see you." Hugo whispered carefully.

"How about you, don't you go home for Christmas?" Uma said with a smile.

Hugo paused, and then took it with a specious words, "My home is not in New York, so don't worry." After that, Hugo directly'kissed' Uma's'lip' flap. , Swallowed the rest of the words.

Soon the two people noticed the tightness of their breath, and Uma quickly stopped Hugo, "I can't continue, otherwise I will really be late."

Hugo didn't stop him this time, let go and let Uma tidy up her clothes, and then escorted Uma away. Looking at the empty hall, his eyes widened. The festive atmosphere of this Christmas is finally invading. Up.

In the next two days, Alex, Carl, and Joseph all went home one after another, and the friends Neil and Pedro whom Hugo had just met also went home one after another. Los Angeles seemed to have become overnight. An empty city, which reminds Hugo of what it looked like when he spent the Lunar New Year in the city.

After careful consideration, Hugo decided to call his father again. Although the idea of ​​going home on Thanksgiving was rejected, this time it is Christmas. Maybe it will be different, right?

The phone rang twice and was picked up. Adam's irritable and vicissitudes of voice came over, "Adam Lancaster, speak."

"Hey, Dad, it's me, Hugo." Hugo tried to lighten his voice, "How are you doing recently, how is everything?"

"I can't die." Adam became impatient after only one sentence, "What's the matter, just say it. You didn't say last time that your job is ‘good’ now, why, what’s the problem?"

At least he still remembers what Hugo said when he called him last time. This gave Hugo a little more confidence, "Oh, no, it's not about work..."

"So?" Adam interrupted Hugo's words roughly, but this is used to Hugo, this is Adam's style, "Tomorrow is Christmas, I want to go back and see you."

"Do you want to come back? For what, there is nothing here." Adam's voice was rough, like a bellows next to a stove, pulling roughly, creaking.

Faced with Adam’s words, Hugo suddenly felt powerless. He was sure that his father just didn’t want him to go home. Maybe he was worried that he would have nothing to say when the father and son meet. Communication on the phone is so difficult. It is estimated that after the actual meeting The scene will be even more horrible, "You are my father, I just want to spend Christmas with you, what's wrong?"

This time, Adam fell silent and did not answer for the first time. He just breathed silently, and the heavy breath was clearly transmitted from the telephone receiver. Just as Hugo was about to say something more, Adam's voice came over, "You are an adult, and you have the right to make a decision. If you want to come back, can I stop you? Of course not. I just think , You don’t have to come back, it doesn’t make any sense at all."

Adam’s style of saying this is really easy to'irritate' others. Hugo is not usually so easy to get angry. But I don’t know if Adam’s words are too hurtful, or because he has already taken the role of a son. ', family members are always unscrupulous when talking, so Hugo is also very angry, "What do you mean, what is meant by it does not make any sense? Christmas, this is Christmas!"

"Don't yell at me, I can hear you!" Adam yelled back angrily, making Hugo feel his ears buzzing, "Our family has no tradition of Christmas. If you want to celebrate the holidays, you can be like you Like my mother, I have been to Jewish holidays. Christmas? I don’t know how to cook for you or prepare gifts for you, so what?"

This is the first time Hugo heard from Adam that he took the initiative to mention his mother~www.readwn.com~ and it is still a fact that Hugo does not know. Is his mother Jewish? Or is he of Jewish descent?

But Hugo didn’t have the mind to do more thinking, so he could only follow Adam’s words and continue to say, “Then according to what you mean, we don’t want to meet again? We won’t meet again on Thanksgiving, Christmas. Don’t meet either? So, what are you going to do to sever ties with me?"

"Don't push the mistakes on me! Don't!" Adam's voice was full of anger, "You know that all of this is your choice. You chose to leave me and leave home to go to the **** Los Angeles. You chose Becoming that kind of ghost actor but you don’t want to do something down-to-earth. It’s because you don’t want to go home and you don’t want to call even if it’s a holiday. You know all this! So don’t get angry at me just because you have achieved a little , Don’t be as weak and incompetent as your mother but have big dreams that are useless, know nothing but blame others, don’t!"

Hugo was struck by Adam’s series of words and breathed out, but Adam still did not end, "So, if you want to come back, it is your freedom, but I will not deliberately entertain you; so, so... …The **** Christmas, the **** hell!"

Boom! Beep...beep...beep...
