Surprise present, special birthday
收到生日礼物本来是件让人开心的事,不过一位叫Johnny Crow 的美国少年却因收到一份意外的生日礼物而当场泪崩,这是怎么一回事呢?
Everyone has a dream, and so does Johnny Crow from Michigan in the US. Johnny fell in love with the guitar at a young age. He dreams of being a musician in the future so he often takes guitar lessons at a music center. His 49-year-old father was a huge supporter of Johnny’s music dream. However, he passed away in April this year after suffering a heart attack (心脏病发作), making Johnny very sad.
The first birthday after losing a loved one is always hard. Johnny turned 16 two months after his father’s death. On his birthday, Johnny’s sister Chandler Mae Crow picked up her brother from school and drove him to the music center. In the music center, Johnny was given a birthday card that was signed (署名) by his father. Johnny was very moved and his voice was shaking by the time he finished reading the card. However, what made him burst into tears (放声大哭) was the birthday present — an expensive electric guitar. John ny’s loving father knew he had always wanted the guitar, so he bought it in advance (提前) for him and asked the teachers at the center to keep it a secret.
Chandler knew the secret one month earlier than Johnny. “When one teacher showed me my dad’s present for Johnny, I dropped to my knees and couldn’t believe it. But I had to keep it a secret until his birthday,” she said.Chandler filmed Johnny opening the guitar box and put the video on the Internet. Over 12 million people have watched it.
Chandler said that her father said Johnny would be famous one day for his music. If anything, he and his father are now famous for their heartwarming bond (纽带) — the guitar displayed in the video.
