When the House Collapsed, He Chose Her
Chapter 1
I was dug out,covered in broken glass.
The nurse was helping me clean up while wondering why my wounds looked like they were caused by an explosion.
I stayed silent.
Andrew and his first love Gillian were being interviewed at the same time.
The video of him digging for Gillian went viral.
This love story about earthquake rescue was the most popular.
Reporters kept asking Andrew questions.They called him'the most handsome boyfriend in the world!'
The whole ward knows about him.Even my doctor said he loves his girlfriend.He dug with his bare hands for hours.The wounds were deep.He also showed me the video.Andrew was kneeling on the rubble,digging with his hands in front of the rebar and glass.
Glass pierced all his hands.
He shouted Gillian's name and kept digging.
In the end,he spent a huge sum of money to find a professional blaster to help him blast the floorboards to get Gillian out.
He saw Gillian.
He cried.
The doctor wiped his tears and said,'If I had someone to love me,I'd be happy.There aren't many good men like this.'
My mouth twitched.
A good man.
I thought about those three words,then looked at Andrew feeding congee to Gillian.
He forgot he had a wife.
He forgot I was under the floor too.I was buried because I saved him.
He only talked about his love for Gillian.
He didn't mention me at all.
The only time he thought of me was when people were recording the death list and asking if my name was on it.
He looked disappointed when people told him I was still alive.He didn't think I would survive the disaster.But we were in the same ward.Every day,I saw him looking at me as he took care of Gillian.
