Godfather Of Champions

    Chapter 18 Hey george

    Three days later, Nottingham Forest FC vs. Charlton, George Wood returned to the starting lineup, and he was very strong in the game. Both the defense and the organization attack swept the previous downturn, and his supporters were delighted. Shouting "Saint George is back!"

    In the end, relying on his excellent play, the Forest team beat the visiting Charlton at home 2-0, and finally ushered in the first victory in two months.  After the game, the media speculated that Wood's mother had a better condition, so Wood had such outstanding performance.

    In fact, when Wood scored the first goal at Crimson Arena Assists Mitchel, his mother fell into a deep coma in the hospital, and she had been in a coma for a whole day.

    Twain once thought that Sophia was in a coma again, and it would definitely make Wood miss the game.  However, Wood unexpectedly announced that he would participate in the competition and was ready.

    Before the expedition, there was a conversation between Wood and Twain, and this conversation was confusing for Twain.

    "I am still the Captain of the Forest team and the team needs me.  ”

    The poor performance of the previous team also touched Wood, but fortunately he still remembers Captain of this team.

    Just as Twain thought that Wood had finally figured it out, he was going to change his mind.  He added: "I will stick to my post before I retire.  But I will make a decision as soon as possible.  ”

    Twain knows that Sophia is running out of time, has recently been in a coma very often, and has been in a coma for a long time.  The doctor nurse waited for twenty-four hours in front of her bed and was ready to be rescued.  He didn't want to lose Sophia and lost Wood.  Although Wood does not die, but a wood that does not play, what is the difference between death and death? People like Wood don’t have a sense of existence when they don’t play.  Twain really can't think of what Wood wouldn't play like.

    But then, even if Wood suddenly decided to follow his mother, Twain would not be surprised…

    Twain stood at the door of the ward, unaware that he had blocked a lot of people, and the body was hit by the constant doctors who went in and out, and he stood there again, as if he had no consciousness.  Looking at the empty bed in front.

    Two days after the victory of the Forest team, Sophia has been in a coma, which briefly woke up once.  It was late at night, Wood was resting outside, Twain was not in the hospital, only Vivian was with her.

    Twain didn't know what Sophia had said to Vivian, and he didn't know what it was like when the woman was awake.

    Does she love her long-suffering, happy but short-lived life? Or will it be a great relief for death? She could have reluctantly her own child, George? There are too few people in the world who can make her care…

    Wood stood in front of the thick glass window.  Quietly watching the busy doctors in the ward, they are taking the instrument and taking off the items used by the mother on the bed.  A bunch of flowers inserted in the vase of the bedside table has withered, and a nurse has hugged it out together with the vase.

    She seems to be planning to dispose of it as normal waste, but it was stopped by Vivian.

    Vivian took the bouquet from the vase.  I found a card inside.  She smashed out, which said, "Your son is a real professional player. After waking up and complimenting him, he will be very happy.  Sophia."

    This bouquet was sent to Twain yesterday. From this message, Twain found out that Wood had not improved after winning the game. He hoped that Wood would be happy with his mother's compliment.  It was only Sophia who did not notice the bunch of flowers when she woke up briefly.  Wood also lost the last chance to listen to her mother's compliments.  His mother will never smile and touch her son's head and say, "My George is the best in the world.  ”

    Vivian looked down at her left wrist and there was some redness that was picked up by Wood's mother.  Sophia suddenly woke up late that night, and Vivian was right next to her.

    It was a very, very brief waking.  Sophia didn't even see who this person was, and grabbed Vivian's hand.  Shouted: "I don't want to die…"

    The flowers are so fast that they are as fast as the lady's life.

    Shania received a call from Twain and asked her to take Teressa back to Nottingham to attend Sophia's funeral.

    Evan .Doughty is reporting to the England Football Association, and the application can be a minute of silence for Wood's mother at the start of the next round of the Forest team.  By the time the entire team of the Forest team will wear black jersey on the jersey sleeve.  This proposal has been approved by the Sunderland AFC Club, the opponent of the Forest team.

    Wood stared at himself in front of the mirror in the bathroom.  He has not taken care of his looks for several days, his hair is messy, his beard is pulling.  But now the scene appears in the mirror is a clean and clean George Wood, short hair has been carefully managed.  The beard on the chin was also wiped out.

    The shape is impeccable.  But the eyes are full of blood, which means that the people in the mirror are actually very tired.

    "George!"

    Agent Woods called his name outside.

    Wood pushed the door open.  Found that Knicks was carrying a black suit and said to him: "Change clothes, we should set off.  ”

    The old gentleman of Knicks has always attached great importance to his own instrument. He used to be a big fan of entertainment industry. He used to wear fashion gentlemen in his usual gentleman's fashion, but today he has thrown away unnecessary decorations. I only wore a very normal black suit.

    Wood took the suit and put it on the body, and went out with the woods.

    Out of the door, looking at some wet street, Woodton paused.

    Is it raining?

    umbrellaWoods thought Wood was stopping to worry about the weather.

    “Nah.  Wood walked into the rain.

    Twain didn't worry at all that the daughter would make things that didn't match the atmosphere at the funeral. The sensible Teressa saw her parents both look solemn.

    This is a very private and very small funeral.  Sophia alone has no relatives and friends in United Kingdom. Her family has long had a relationship with her. Even if Wood became famous in the world, she did not see any news from Jamaica.  However, it is estimated that Wood's temper, even if there are people to recognize.  Wood will only knock them out of the house…

    Woods only invited the Twain family, and the doctors at the Royal College of Medicine at Nottingham University. They were taking care of the care during the time they were hospitalized in Sophia. Although they were not able to rescue Sophia's life, they did their best.  Also invited were representatives of Nottingham Forest FC Club and Wood's friends in the team.

    The representative of Club turned out to be Chairman Evan.Doughty myself.  However, Twain thinks that Evan is "the meaning of drunkenness is not in the wine." His real purpose is probably not just to attend Sophia's funeral.

    Wood's friends on the team are only Gareth Bale and Aaron.Mitchel has two people.  Although he has a good relationship with the team, there are not many people who have a "friend" rating.

    The priest ended his eulogy in front of Sophia's tombstone: "She is a good person.  May she sleep for a long time…"

    Twain thought, it is customary for the funeral pastors to say this, but this time the pastor is right.  Sophia is really a good person, but unfortunately, good lives are not long.  During this time, Twain will be cranky when he is alone.  Sophia, the woman who walked around in the world, what is it for? Before Wood met herself, her life was basically suffering.  If you fall in love with someone, you will be abandoned. You will grow up alone and pull up your child. For this job, you have to do whatever you want, even if you are selling your own body.  It’s hard to wait for your child to succeed, and you don’t have to worry about your livelihood.  The body has deteriorated rapidly and basically has not enjoyed any blessings.  Family, she did not have love before she gave birth to Wood.  It was gone after Wood was born.  This kind of life must be uninteresting for the average person, but Wood has become the whole faith that supports her to survive.

    Maybe she appeared in the world just to be George Wood's mother.

    Wood stood by the grave and received the people who came to the funeral.  Everyone queued up to throw the flowers in their hands into the grave, and then they had to hug with Wood, say a few words, and then leave.  The Twain family of three is also in the team. He actually saw Vivian in the hospital representative.Miller Miss figure.  She is wearing a long black dress today.  The hem has been wet by the rain, but she is unaware.  After gently putting the flowers in her hand into the grave, she walked over to Wood.

    In Twain's position, he couldn't hear what Vivian and Wood said.  However, guessing can be guessed, nothing more than words like "sacred sorrow".  It’s just that others turned away after saying this, and Vivian went around Wood and stood there and left.

    In fact, the relationship between the person who can stand there and Wood is extraordinary. For example, Bale and Mitchel are standing behind Wood.  Accompany him.  The relationship between Vivian and Wood is obviously not intimate to that point.

    Twain looks at Vivian again.  The girl’s expression was very natural, standing among the three men.  Did not appear to be embarrassed.

    Evan .Doughty also completed the necessary etiquette. After comforting Wood, he did not rush to leave, but went to Whisks to whisper.  It is estimated that things should be discussed in the retirement of Wood.  With the departure of Sophia, the last person who could hold down Wood was gone, and he obviously had to revisit the old things.  Evan .Doughty looked worried, he was not saddened by the death of Sophia, he was worried about the future of his team.

    After Shania threw the flowers in his hand, he walked over to Wood.  She had tears on her face and just cried.  Among the people who came to the funeral, except Wood and Twain, I am afraid that only her and Sophia had the best feelings.  Although she knows a little about some things that Sophia once loved Twain, it has become a thing of the past.  She is really saddened by the death of Sophia, and also worried about Wood's life later – she knows what kind of person Wood is.

    She is a few years old, she has always regarded Wood as her best friend.

    Walking to Wood, Shania didn't just say a few words of "sorrow and change" like everyone else, but hugged Wood and whispered in his ear.  Wood kept his lips pressed and tried to control his emotions, but in Shania's whisper.  His eyes are still getting red.

    The hug was a bit long, and after Shania lowered his head and released Wood, it was Twain's turn.

    Since his wife has embraced Wood, Twain himself does not need to hug again.  He stood in front of Wood in the red circle and was going to say something.

    "Hey, George…"

    I didn't expect Wood to interrupt him, hoarse and swearing and asking: "Would you like to comfort me?"

    It was suddenly said that Twain was awkward.  He touched his nose and didn't know how he should pick this sentence.

    "In the past few days, I have heard too much comfort.  If you really want to comfort me, for me, take some practical action.  ”

    Operative actions: Let me hug you like my wife? Twain asked in his heart.

    "I have lost my mother, I don't want to lose you again!"It’s very rare for Wood’s voice to choke, and it’s so horrible in front of the public. The content is even more surprising.  "The funeral is over.  You have to go back to United States of America, right? ”

    Twain didn't expect Wood to say such things in such a situation.  He was kneeling at the three people behind Wood.  AroonMitchel and Gareth Bale apparently didn't expect Wood to say such things, but looking at their expressions, they were very interested in Wood's words because they knew what it meant.  Vivian .Miller Miss is curious about the relationship between Twain and Wood.

    "You should have your own new life, George…"

    Twain can only say so.  I avoided the problem of Wood.

    Wood is not willing to speak more, shut up and stop talking.

    Twain noticed that the atmosphere was awkward and he couldn't say anything better.  Just patted Wood's shoulder and turned and walked away.

    The latter person picked up and whispered to Wood: "The festival is sorrowful…"

    Twain asked Shania to take her daughter on the bus first, and he wanted to see Sophia's last side.  Go around the tombstone.  He stared at the text above: "My love."  People who don't know, maybe think that there is a wife who is sleeping in George Wood…

    Sophia, I really don't know how to face your son. Can you give me some help?

    The fine raindrops hit Twain's umbrella and made a loud noise.  Sophia smiled on the tombstone, just looking at him.

    Twain was silent, suddenly felt more personal, and he looked down at the man's toe.  There was some mud and grass clippings on it.

    "Sorry, I didn't mean to bother you, Toni.  "It's Evan."Doughty's voice.

    What's on your mind?In fact, Twain guessed what it was.

    "I listen to Wookes Mr.
Say, if you come back, then George will not mention retiring things, is that the case? ”

    Twain turned to look at Evan standing next to him, and the other person was looking at himself, looking forward to the answer.

    "Yes.  It is George's own claim.  Twain didn't lie.  He also didn't have to lie and lie in front of Sophia.  That feeling is always bad.

    "Can I send you an invitation again, Toni? Please come back to coach Nottingham Forest FC.  If you are still angry about what I did four years ago, I would like to sincerely apologize to you.  I promise you everything you want, as long as you can come back.  ”

    Twain snorted: "In order for you to sell this team for a good price?"

    Evan shook his head: "I have decided not to sell the Club.  ”

    "A moment of whim?"

    "No, I thought about it for a long time after I came to see you that day.  I can't be the chairman of the Club for a lifetime. I am sixty years old this year, Toni.  You often say that you are an old man, but I am ten years older than you.  My eldest son is an avid foot fan. He is different from me. He has always liked football since he was a child, and he has always been interested in running a football club.  But I used to just sell the Forest team for a good price and never thought about him.  I plan to give the Club to him. He loves football. Maybe he can do better than me…Of course not now.  I still want to stay a few more years, at least to make up for the years I wasted.  Then I will retire with peace of mind, when we retire together, how? ”

    Twain looked at Evan's eyes and Evan didn't hide.  Just let Twain look at himself.

    "In the face of this great mother, I don't lie.  Toni.  I am tired of the topics on the rostrum that are not related to football. I am tired of those who just want to take advantage of me. I am tired of one after another, I am hanging on the stands. Tired of attacking my slogan…These have never happened when you were there.  To be honest, I am tired of these four years.  I beg you again, come back and coach Nottingham Forest FC.  I really can't take her back on track.  ”

    The chairman of the Club, Mr., whispered in front of Twain and sighed, and had long since lost the feeling of flying with Twain.  Perhaps because of the weather, in the drizzle of the rain, Evan was wet with wet feet and shoes.Doughty was very poor and very lonely in front of him.

    He noticed.  In this day, Allen.Adams is no longer in Evan.Doughty is around.  It seems that the friendship between the two of them is also over.

    "Let me think about it, this is not a trivial matter.  Twain said.

    Evan heard the answer and his face was full of surprises.  Be aware that the last time Twain was rejected twice.

    "Don't be too happy, Evan.  If my wife does not agree.  Then I will not violate her wishes.  ”

    "Yes, I understand.  Evan nodded quickly, for fear that Twain would be upset.

    Looking at this little chairman of the club, Twain shook his head.  Turned away and left.

    Drilling into the car, Twain did not immediately start the car to leave.  He looked back at Teressa, a seat belt seated in the back seat, and looked at Shania in the passenger seat.

    "When I was not in Los Angeles, were you tired? I have to work and take care of Teressa.  ”

    "Fortunately, Teressa is very sensible. If I am busy, she will play by herself.  I took her to the scene of filming and catwalking, and she was curious about everything there.  ”

    Shania also looked back at Teressa.

    "Evan.What are Doughty talking about? ”Shania, who was sitting in the car, also noticed the time when Twain and Evan stood in front of the tombstone.

    "He wants me to go back and coach Nottingham Forest FC.  Twain said.  While watching the change in the expression of his wife.

    "Are you rejected?"Shania can't see anything beautifully.

    "No…But I did not agree.  Twain tells the truth.

    Shania suddenly tilted her mouth, and this smile had some ridiculous taste, and Twain was the most familiar.  "I remembered what George said to you just now.  She said, "I hope that you will go back a lot."  ”

    Hearing some jealousy in her tone, Twain quickly said, "No, if you don't agree, I will refuse them.  Then we went back to United States of America.  ”

    "In that case, Sophia will be sad? Didn't she pay Woodto to you? ”

    As a husband.  Twain told his wife about everything that happened during his contact with Shania.  So Shania knows what Sophia had when she last talked to Twain.

    Twain hesitated.  Said: "But I don't want to make you sad…"

    Shania yawned: "I suddenly got tired of the Toni grandfather who had nothing to do except to bring children at home.  If you like it, you can promise it.  We are going home now.  I have to take a good sleep and fly back from United States of America. I haven't had a jet lag.  ”

    Twain didn't obey to start the car, but turned back to Teressa and said, "Teressa, can you close your eyes?"

    Teressa is not clear, but she is obedient and closed her eyes.

    Shania also felt inexplicable, then saw Twain slamming her and giving her a deep kiss.

    "Hey – hehe…"

    Even Bale and Mitchel died to Wood, but Vivian still stood behind Wood.

    "You still don't go back, Miller Miss.  ”

    "I am a little worried about you, Wood Mr…."Vivian whispered.  "Your mental state is not good…"

    "This is not in the hospital.  Wood said unceremoniously, he was a little impatient.  That nurse Miss is right, his mental state is really bad.

    "This is not a job.  I realize that your spirit has been bad for a few days, I am worried about you…"

    "I am not a child!"Wood whispered.

    "Although you are older than me, Wood Mr.  But in my eyes.  You are full of childishness in your body, you are a child who grows up! ”Vivian also increased the volume slightly, responding without any weakness.

    Wood turned and looked at the opposite Miss Miss, and the other person looked up at himself.  Just like that day at the door of the ward, he had to break in, and she said nothing.

    "You need a break, Wood Mr.!"Vivian doesn't let it go.

    "I didn't ask you to do my nurse.  ”

    "This is just out of…A friend cares! ”

    "are we friends?"Wood asked.

    "I think so."Vivian is quite a good chest and gives himself a strong courage.

    Take care of your mother for this.  No matter how much hard, how many nights have never been a complaint of nurse Miss, George Wood can't say anything, or try to catch people.  He only knows gratitude, otherwise he will not follow Twain consistently.

    In desperation, Wood had to sigh, turned and stood in the same place, watching the mother's photo on the tombstone no longer speak.

    Behind him, Vivian is equally reluctant to accompany him.  The two men were silently fighting for endurance and determination.

    "Want to know what I said in his ear when I was holding George?"The car is driving on the way home.  Shania, leaning against the co-pilot chair, suddenly said.

    "What did you say?"Twain is really interested, because she can make Wood's eyes red when a few words, that is, Twain asks himself that there is no such ability.

    "Sang a few songs and said a few words.  Shania squinted softly.

    "Hey, George.  Don't be so depressed…And anytime you feel the pain.  Hey, George, relax yourself.  Don't take things beyond too much power.  It’s silly to know how to play cool.  Life will always be unsatisfactory…Hey, George, don't make me sad.  If you find someone you love, love her…Hey, George, time flies so far, don't delay.  Don't always expect to rely on others, you know? You can do it yourself…I have to go my own way …Heh.  George, don't be so depressed.  The song that sings sadness will cheer you up.  Remember to love her forever and start a new life…To be better, to be happier…"Song from the Beatles "Hey_jude", Shania sang the "Judy" replaced with "George", the title of this chapter also changed from here, want to express the meaning and the meaning of the song is basically the same.  ）

    After the singer was finished, Shania gently slid open the hair that blocked her forehead.  "Then I said to him: 'This is what your mother wants you to hear.  She hopes that your future will be better.  Happier.  Don't let her down, George'.  ”
