[British and American Entertainment] The Road to True Love

The door of the dessert shop was pushed open, and Doris turned around when she heard the sound, with a big smile on her face. She climbed down from the chair, ran to the door and hugged the leg of the visitor, and said happily: "Agle Ya, here you come."

Aglaia knelt down and kissed Doris's little face, and said, "Honey, how are you doing today? Can you wait there obediently, I have something to deal with. By the way, where is Marisa?" , where is she?"

"Here it is." Marisa replied as she walked out of the kitchen, and she was surprised to find that Aglaia, who never liked contact with outsiders, took the initiative to bring a tall, thin, handsome man into her dessert shop .

She put down the kitchen utensils she was washing, and after washing her hands, she quickly walked out of the counter, went up to her, and asked, "Aglaia, who is this?"

Aglaia said: "Marisa, can you take out the medicine box? I just accidentally hit this gentleman on my bicycle and caused him to scrape his hand. I wanted to take him to the hospital, but this The gentleman didn't want to, so I brought him here."

Upon hearing this, Marisa quickly took out the medicine box from a cabinet behind the counter, handed it to Aglaia, and asked, "Let me help this gentleman deal with it."

Aglaia shook her head and said, "No need, I'll do it, you can clean up the kitchen, I'll be fine." She then took the medicine box and treated the man's wound.

The wound area was not large, nor was it stained with too much dirt, so it was not difficult to deal with it, Aglaia relaxed after treating the wound for him, she smiled at the man and said, "Okay, sir. "

The man tried to move his hands, and when he felt that the movement was not hindered, he praised Aglaia: "Good workmanship, thank you, little lady." You hurt, that's what I should do."

The man was about to bid farewell to leave when Marisa came over with a small box. She handed the box to the man and said, "Sorry, boy, Aglaia hurt you recklessly. This is a fresh job I made. Milk puffs, if you don't mind, take some back to eat."

After thinking for a while, the man still accepted it, and thanked Marisa with a smile. Before leaving, he squatted down, looked Aglaia at the same level, and said goodbye to her.

It was also at this time that Aglaia discovered that the man had a pair of beautiful gray-blue eyes. Looking directly at these eyes, it was as if he saw a sky full of stars, so bright and shining.

So Aglaia thought, he must have a heart as beautiful as his eyes.After the man left, Marisa supported Aglaia's shoulders and said with emotion: "He is such a handsome and polite young man, isn't he?" He also nodded in agreement.

This was their first meeting, and they didn't even know each other's names at this time.

Maybe it's because Marisa's craftsmanship is not bad, the man would occasionally come to Marisa's dessert shop to buy some puffs to eat.The fresh milk puffs in Marisa's store are the most famous and the fastest-selling. Sometimes when the man comes, the new batch of puffs has not been baked, so he often needs to sit and wait for a while.

Over time, when the man was waiting for the puffs, Marisa would chat with him a few words.Gradually, the man became familiar with Marisa, and Marisa also knew that his name was Tom Hiddleston, he was 24 years old, and he was an actor.

Marisa smiled and said: "Wow, so you are an actor, so this can explain your good looks. Forgive my blindness, my TV channels are too few, so we usually don't watch TV except news, I'm so sorry I didn't recognize you."

But Tom didn't mind. He said generously: "It's nothing. I haven't acted in many film and television works, and even if I acted, I didn't show my face much. You don't know, it's normal. In recent years, there have been sporadic guest appearances." I did some movies and TV, and then I did a few plays."

Marisa asked with interest: "Drama? What dramas have you acted in?" Tom fiddled with his little curly hair a little embarrassedly, and the tall man, who was close to 190cm, smiled a bit shyly [Note 1 ], making Marisa involuntarily think of Cronus, who also has curly hair.

Tom said: "Actually, I don't act much, but my favorite is to act in Shakespeare's works." Marissa said with a little surprise: "Shakespeare? Oh, boy, this is really a good choice."

Tom showed a big smile when he heard the words, and he said in agreement: "I think it's great too. I love Shakespeare to death."【Note 2】

Marisa smiled and said: "Our family, Aglaia, often reads Shakespeare's works. There are two little girls in my family who are troubled from morning to night. Every night, Aglaia coaxes them to sleep. Graiya didn't like reading fairy tales, she said they were all nonsense, so she would read Shakespeare's works to the two little girls every night, and after reading them, the two girls would calm down and go to sleep. "

Tom asked: "Aglaia? Is that the little blond girl who insisted on sending me here to treat the wound last time? Oh, madam, she is really sensible, your daughter is so caring, you and your husband must love her very much Bar."

Marisa froze for a moment, then said with a smile: "You're half right, I do love my Aglaia very much, but I don't have a husband."

Tom realized that he seemed to have touched someone else's *, and he hurriedly said: "Oh, sorry ma'am, I..." Marisa waved her hand to interrupt Tom's apology, and said casually: "It's no big deal, young man, you don't need to I'm sorry. I'm not married, and I certainly don't have a husband."

She pinned a lock of hair hanging down her cheek behind her ear, and said, "I think I'm actually very lucky. When all my relatives left me, I picked up my Aglaia. You don't know, at that time She was a small ball, her crying sound was as weak as a kitten's cry, the moment I hugged her, I felt my heart melted, she was like God's will."

The oven dinged at this moment, reminding Marisa that the puffs had been baked. She put on anti-scalding gloves, and while taking the baking tray out of the oven, she continued to say to Tom: "It will be a matter of course, I remodeled my house and started taking in the abandoned, homeless kids, now I have a big family, four girls and two boys, although sometimes they give me a headache , but they are the cutest little angels."

Tom looked at Marisa's aging face due to work, and said softly: "Ma'am, you are really an amazing person." Marissa was using a piping bag to squeeze whipped cream into puffs [Note 3], when Tom heard Tom Saying this, she said, "Oh, boy, I'm not so great as you think. I'm only following my heart."

"That means you have a great heart." Tom said sincerely, not about to take back his compliments to Marisa, but Marisa laughed and sighed: "Oh, Tom, you are such an eloquent person." What a gentleman, such a compliment almost makes me giddy."

Saying this on his mouth, he still neatly put the fresh milk puffs into the box and handed them to Tom. Tom took the puffs and said, "You can float up with confidence. I will use this box of puffs." I swear, I will hold you firmly and not let you fly away."

Marisa was amused by him, she patted Tom and said, "Okay, humorous and eloquent young master, you got the puffs too, go home quickly, I should also prepare to close the shop. "

Tom said goodbye to her with a smile. When he walked to the door, he happened to see Aglaia locking the bicycle. After the two of them nodded to each other, Tom turned and left the dessert shop, and Aglaia entered the dessert shop to help.

Tom also vaguely heard Aglaia say in her clear voice, "Marisa, I'll help you." He lowered his head and smiled slightly, and strode home with the puffs. Fortunately, I was hit by Aglaia, at least he met a few very good people, didn't he?

He is a naturally curious person, he is often interested in many things, and he has always tried not to be controlled by pessimistic emotions.He is interested in human beings, and he is naturally interested in all kinds of human nature, which is the fundamental reason why he loves acting.

In his view, acting is like a different-dimensional anthropology, that is to say, when an actor is acting, it is actually like managing human nature. 【Note 4】

He loved making friends, and it was a pleasure to meet Marisa and Aglaia, Marisa was a respectable woman, with a refined mannerisms about her, yet easy, she was not too old He is 16 years old, but he seems to be the same size as his mother. The pain of life has worn Marisa's face prematurely, but it also gave her a tough and tolerant heart.

He thought of Aglaia again. The girl is very similar to Marisa. Although she is young, people can't help but feel that she is reliable. From Marisa's narration, he also feels that she is a very responsible and considerate girl. girls.

Besides, she likes Shakespeare too, what a nice little ally, isn't it, Tom raised his head triumphantly: he knew everybody loved Shakespeare.

In the later days, Tom would still go to Marisa’s dessert shop to buy a box of fresh milk puffs from time to time. Tom’s house is not far from Marissa’s dessert shop, and this is almost the only way he must go home. up.

On this day, after handing the puffs to Tom as usual, Marisa said, "Oh, by the way, Tom, the dessert shop will not be open tomorrow, my dear, don't make a trip in vain."

Tom blinked and exaggeratedly exclaimed: "Ohno! Mrs. Marisa, you are so cruel, which means I will not be able to eat your fresh milk puffs? What a bad news!"

Marisa laughed happily and said, "Okay, cunning Tom, it's just a day's absence, don't pretend to be pitiful, you know Marissa's heart is the softest. However, I still insist that I won't open the store tomorrow. Tomorrow is Aglaia's birthday, and the children and I are going to celebrate her well."

Tom said, "Well, that's nice, well, let's see, tomorrow is June 26th, which means, Aglaia's birthday flower, it's a blue thistle, wow, that's great, 'Old God bless' Ah! Aglaia is such a blessed child."【Note 5】

But Marisa said: "What's the blessing? It's not bad to suffer. In the past few years, the family's situation has been bad, and most of the time it was barely making ends meet. In the past two years, I finally have some money left. I am going to give it to Aglaia. Let's celebrate, this child has never enjoyed any blessings from me since he was a child."

Seeing that Marisa looked a little depressed, Tom patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "Ma'am, don't think so. Look, will Aglaia have a chance to celebrate her birthday soon this year? So, you have to believe , her happiness is yet to come, she will be happy."

After listening to his comfort, Marisa also felt a little better in her heart. She smiled and said, "It makes sense, well, I hope I can lend you a good word. Ah, yes, Tom, if you have nothing to do tomorrow Would you like to come to Aglaia's birthday party if you want to? Come and add some popularity to our party. Apart from you, we don't have any acquaintances in London."

Tom agreed at once, and said, "Okay, Marisa, tell me the time and place, and I will definitely come." Marisa smiled happily, and told Tom the time and address. After hugging Marisa again, he left. It was time for him to prepare the gift he was about to send.

He vaguely remembered that "Romeo and Juliet" happened to be performed at the London Opera House recently [Note 6]. He felt that a ticket to Shakespeare's play should be a pretty good gift for any Shakespeare fan Bar.Thinking of this, he grinned, and took out his mobile phone to make a call to check the show time and specific information.
