126 Call Father

Hugo looked at the small piece of paper he had stuffed into the script of the "Dead Poets Society", looked at the string of phone numbers on it, and there was no response in his mind, if it hadn't been for the label "Adam Lancaster. laer)" name, Hugo would have thought that this was what lottery numbers were. It can be seen that the phone number of his predecessor is so unfamiliar, and it is estimated that he has not called a few times after getting the number.

It's Tuesday, and the day after tomorrow is Thanksgiving, so if Hugo doesn't call again, there's a good chance he'll miss it. In fact, Hugo was subconsciously avoiding this matter, and he dragged on until now, if Joseph hadn't mentioned it, it was estimated that he would not have "remembered" until Thanksgiving.

Before the crossing, the relationship between Hugo and his father had not improved, although Hugo and his mother had many phone calls, but he was never able to have a real 'exchange' with his father, which also became the biggest regret in Hugo's heart. Hugo knew that he should call his parents in this body, because he was now a Lancaster in Hugo, and Hugo's regret should not be carried over to Lancaster. But for Hugo, he seems to have forgotten how to 'communicate' with his father, so he hesitates and timid.

After taking several deep breaths in a row, Hugo knew that there was no way to escape, and unless he wanted to ignore this Thanksgiving, the call was imperative. Besides, it has been ten months since Hugo crossed over, and he has never been in contact with his parents, which is too much to say. Therefore, Hugo finally picked up the receiver of the landline phone and dialed the phone number as soon as he gritted his teeth.

The phone rang only two crisply, and then it was answered, so fast that Hugo was startled, and a rough and deep voice came from the other end of the phone, and the neatness of cutting the golden stone seemed to make the earpieces tremble, "Adam Lancaster, speak." This hearty voice at least proves that my father's body is very strong.

"Hey, Dad." Hugo hesitated for a moment and shouted, although it felt a little strange that a "stranger" was his father, but after shouting, it magically did not make Hugo feel repulsed, but could feel the resonance in his blood. Hugo didn't know if it was because the other party was very similar to his father, or because he felt the maintenance of blood in his body.

"Hugo?" Adam's voice was full of confusion on the other end, "Today is not Thanksgiving or Christmas. "It seems that it was very surprising that Hugo would call at this time

"Yes, it's Thanksgiving in two days." Hugo was a little embarrassed by his father's 'forced' question, as if Adam didn't welcome his call.

"Yes, I know. That's why I'm confused, isn't there two days left?" Adam said angrily, even with a hint of impatience, "So, call me today, something?" Adam still didn't drag his feet and asked directly.

"Oh, no......" Hugo already felt that this phone call was very difficult, but he endured so much resistance that Hugo felt even more difficult to move an inch, "I, I just wanted to ask you about your plans for Thanksgiving." ”

"I'm not going to eat with you anyway." Adam's words made Hugo directly stunned, and he didn't know what to do to respond, "Or do you need money?" How long has it been since you got a job? For God's sake, if you need money, be direct, don't beat around the bush and act like a damn sissy. ”

"Dad!" Hugo was 'provoked' by Adam's rough tone, he just wanted to communicate with his father, but his father distorted his meaning in this way, to be precise, his father did not even give him a chance to explain. This reminded Hugo of his father before he crossed over, and so did he. "I'm not asking you for money, I have a job......"

"You mean actors? Hum. Adam's voice was full of disdain, and he even tugged at the corners of his mouth with disdain. Hugo probably knew that this was the reason why they never contacted, because Adam did not support Hugo to become an actor, or even rejected it, so their father-son relationship was basically stiff. Hugo experienced this before, and now he has experienced it again.

"Yes, actors." Hugo's voice involuntarily raised, not only because he was 'provoked' by his father, but also because of his father's disdainful 'kiss', "I want to sue you that my current work as an actor is going very smoothly......"

"Well, it's your business. If it's okay, I'm hanging. Adam didn't wait for Hugo to continue, and hung up directly with a "bang".

Hugo looked at the telephone receiver that kept coming out of the busy tone, dumbfounded, this was definitely a situation he didn't expect, but a stubborn temper suddenly came up, he looked at the phone number on the desktop, and dialed it again.

When the phone was answered, Hugo didn't wait for his father to speak, and said directly, "I called you to ask if you would like to come to Los Angeles to spend Thanksgiving with me, you know we haven't seen each other for a long time." If you don't want to, then sue me for no need to condemn my work......"

"I also want to tell you that I not only have a job now, but also do a very good job, not long ago my film 'Smell the Fragrance' Female 'Man' has just been released, and next month another 'Yihai Xiongfeng' will be released, and I am still preparing for auditions for other jobs. I'm good, I'm really good. I am not short of money, on the contrary, I am now doing very well at my job and I am praised by many people. So, if you can show respect for my work, thank you very much. ”

Hugo said a lot in a crackling voice, and then gasped and stopped after saying it in one breath.

"You're done?" Adam's voice was still lukewarm, and after he finished speaking, he snorted again, as if he didn't care at all about Hugo's many words just now, "So, what do you want, do you want me to praise you for doing a good job?" You're an adult, not Taylor's dog, you don't need this kind of compliment, and I won't give it. I sued you, I don't care about your work, and if you don't have money, I'm your father, and I won't let you starve to death at least but other than that, don't try to convince me. Speaking of the back, Adam's voice also became stronger, like a sharp dagger, galloping mercilessly towards Hugo's shoulder, and then 'finely' pierced the side of Hugo's face.

"As for Thanksgiving, I'm not available." Adam took a breath and said simply, "It's okay to meet or something, it's not that I don't know what you look like, and there is no need to meet." ”

Hugo was directly blocked by his father's words, and he couldn't go down in a breath, "What does it mean that there is no need to meet, you are my father, I am your son, I want to see you, isn't this normal?"

"But do you want to?" Adam's rhetorical question made Hugo speechless: a "yes" stuck in his throat but couldn't speak, and missed the first point in time, Adam didn't give Hugo more chance to react, "Is there anything else?" If it's okay......"

Sensing that his father was about to hang up the phone, Hugo quickly interrupted him, "What about Mom?" Do you have any news of her?" Hugo carefully checked the inside and outside of the script of the "Dead Poets Society", and there was no news about his mother, telephone, address, photos, nothing. If Hugo weren't sure that his mother, Lena, hadn't had any accidents, he would have even suspected that Lena had died.

Hugo's words immediately silenced Adam, and then he suddenly became irritable and gritted his teeth angrily, "I said, don't mention her in front of me, you'd better keep that in mind." The categorical tone made Hugo's brows furrow, and Hugo wanted to say something more, "But ......"

But before the voice came out, it was brutally suppressed by Adam, "There are customers in the store, hang up." After a pause of about half a second, Adam then said in a gruff voice, "Also, since you've called today, don't call back on Thanksgiving." After saying that, he simply hung up the phone neatly.

Hugo looked at the earpiece in his hand, not knowing how to react, just standing still.

It seems that the relationship between Hugo and his parents is worse than imagined, no matter what happened between Adam and Lena, but at least Lena did not take the initiative to contact Hugo, and Hugo did not find any signs of contact between the predecessor and his mother, which shows that the relationship between Hugo and his father and mother is not good. It can even be said that Hugo and his father are a little more closely connected.

In this way, Hugo has not been in contact with his parents for almost a year, and there is nothing unusual about it, which is explained.

Hugo couldn't help but 'rub' his ears, and the roar of Yazhong made Hugo feel that his ears were ringing a little, which was really not good. Originally, he thought that he should take the initiative to contact his family on Thanksgiving, but Hugo was still worried about how to deal with his family, and his soul who had traveled over could deceive his friends, but it was not so simple to deceive his family, and Hugo's worries were all useless. Now it seems that even if Hugo takes the initiative to go back to contact his father, it is estimated that he will break up unhappily, and he will be glad that he was not swept out of the 'door'.

Should this be good news? At least there is no need to deal with family relationships, anyway, Hugo has no real feelings for Adam and Lena's parents. But why does Hugo always feel empty in his heart? Is it because of the relationship between his predecessors, or because of the regrets of his previous family.

Although the development of his career has now seen the light of day, there are still many problems around Hugo, and none of them can be easily solved. Now that I think about it, poison. Addiction, the strictest problem, is the simplest, relying on Hugo's own willpower to get through the difficulties, the hardship, pain, and torture experienced during the withdrawal reaction at that time, now that I think about it, it seems that it is not so difficult.
