Uncle Janitor had already drunk a large glass of beer, and he burped in satisfaction.

Carlos's ears were flapping slightly, and his eyelashes were pinched in the sun.

The two teams were in such a stalemate, and they didn't speak for a long time.

Carlos took several breaths, but the words never came out.

"Are you dumb? If I don't apologize, I'll pour out the water. After a long silence, a tall, lanky boy spoke, he was captain Garcia.

Carlos didn't speak, he glanced at Garcia.

"Aren't you dragging your way? Do you still compare the middle finger with us? After receiving Carlos' disdainful look, the captain was a little angry.

Carlos looked at the glass bottle and was silent.

"You speak!" Garcia roared, "You apologize to me!" ”

"That's it, apologize, hurry up!" "Little Miscellaneous Hair, apologize quickly!" "Don't waste our time!" The other team members are in line with the Tao.

"You broom star, no wonder no one helped you either in the orphanage or in La Masia," Garcia poured the cup in his hand, and the water dripped down on the hot ground, and quickly disappeared, "You deserve to be alone, even your parents don't want you!" I can't give you water, go and add it to the earth! ”

Other players followed suit, such a little bit of water, the sun in Barcelona is not visible at all, and it will evaporate after a while.

"Now, I'll give you back this gesture. Poor loser! Garcia held his head high, made a middle finger with his right hand, and then turned upside down to point to the ground.

Carlos watched the water evaporate from the ground, gave Garcia a hard push, and then slammed the flask into the lamppole.

With the sound of running water and glass breaking, Carlos picked up the football, looked up at Garcia, who was caught by his teammates, and said coldly: "I don't need you to succeed." ”

He turned his head to look at the girl in the sweating skirt, it was the first time he had seen her dressed like this, she was beautiful, and he didn't have time to say.

But he knew he had broken her heart.

He didn't say anything and walked straight into the training camp.

When people do something wrong, they always want to escape, hide in their turtle shells, and use a strong coat to protect against wind and sand.

Although that would only make things worse.

The sprouts that sprouted in Carlos's heart were quietly withering.

Su Qingjia held back her tears and didn't let herself cry, she bowed to the coach and the players and apologized, and then left here.

Her hair was a little messy, and a few strands fell mischievously and stroked her face.

She could never be his Moses, and she did not have a majestic scepter in her hands.

Carlos returned to his room, he didn't turn on the lights, and the light of the setting sun cast a dim shadow through the window.

There seemed to be a devil living in his heart, and he couldn't control his impulses.

It's like that day on the pitch, those abuses, those scoldings, those indifferent eyes, everyone isolates him, he can't see warmth.

He wants to try to communicate with others, to make friends with others, and he also wants to try to fit into the group.

He knows everything Bella wants to do, he knows it, he is willing to cooperate with her, he is willing to suppress himself, but he really can't do it in the end.

He didn't tell anyone why his parents died, not even Bella.

During that rainy season, the road was slippery, and they unfortunately crashed into the fence and rolled down the hill, and he tasted the salty smell in his mother's arms.

He then climbed out and called for help from passers-by, standing in the middle of the road to intercept passing cars, but each driver would just push him aside and drive away. They were so far away from the city that no one wanted to take him to a phone booth to call the police or call an emergency hotline.

It was as if the words of a lifetime's supplications were uttered at that time. He hugged his parents and heard the sound of blood, like the sound of rain.

In the deepest and most painful memory, he could only lock himself firmly in his shell, he thought, if he didn't touch, there would be no harm, and if he didn't go, there would be no disillusionment.

Mother Rosa had studied the Gospel of Matthew with the children of the orphanage, and there was a sentence in it that he remembered very well, the choir chant had long since dissipated the melody, but that phrase he did not dare to forget for many years.

It says, "If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away." It is better to lose one body than to throw the whole body into hell.

If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away, and it is better to lose one body than to send your whole body into hell. ”

Carlos sat at the bottom of the bed with pothos in his arms, Bella may not come back, those shining memories will gradually fade in the sea of knowledge, the angel who likes to wear skirts and has silky black hair will have more friends in the future, she doesn't have to be sad for them, she doesn't have to feel sorry for them, they will make her laugh, give her more beautiful bracelets, he will be her past, not a good past.

And he, Carlos smiled wryly, resting his head on the mattress, he would take good care of this pothos tree.

Some people dare not forget the memories, and some people do not want to talk about the past.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and before he could refuse, Oleg had already come in, and he took the plate and turned on the light.

"Hey, it's all here, don't go to eat, I want to learn plant photosynthesis." Oleg sat down next to him, and the 17-year-old made the space cramped.

It took Carlos a moment to adjust to the light, and he didn't speak.

"Eh, what about you, the food has been brought to you, eat some." Oleg handed him the plate.

Carlos just hugged the pothos in his hand tightly.

Oleg pursed his lips, put the plate on the ground, and snatched the pothos from Carlos's arms, "Hey, you can eat this pot of grass for rice." Then he handed him the meal, "Hurry up, eat." ”

Seeing that Carlos was unmoved, he was also used to it, and a person chattered crookedly beside him: "Eh, you won't think about it behind closed doors, right?" Don't be like this, isn't it just that I was scolded twice, when I first came, I didn't get along with my teammates, and then it didn't get better! With his long arm stretched out, he patted Carlos on the head, "Carlos, seriously, you're really breaking your girlfriend's heart like this." ”

Oleg put the pothos back in place, and said as he walked: "These days, you haven't seen anyone every day, Bella runs to La Masia every day, and she doesn't go to school, but I've heard about it, she begged Coach Benajes and the little guys you offended for several days to make them willing to cooperate with her to help you." ”

"Eh, do you know how they agreed?" Oleg crossed his legs and raised his eyebrows, "She has picked up balls for them for more than ten days, and she runs around against the sun every day, hey, I feel sorry for your girlfriend." ”

Carlos's hand shook, and Oleg quickly held it with his eyes, "Hey, I'm so excited, I'm kind enough to give you food, don't pour it, if you pour it, you won't have anything to eat." ”

"She, in La Masia these days?" Carlos spoke, his voice a little hoarse, he hadn't drunk water in a long time.

Oleg snapped his fingers and said, "You eat first, and I'll tell you when I'm done." ”

Carlos picked up the chopsticks and began to pick them, and in two or three minutes, he had already finished eating, "Say it quickly!" ”

"Well, I don't know what to say about you two, didn't you almost fight with them that day? Vela went to coach Benajez a few times, and the two didn't know what they talked about, and then the coach said that he could let you play another match, provided that Garcia was willing. Oleg sighed, "Then your little girlfriend went to them, and Garcia said that if Bella was willing to pick up the ball for them, when they were satisfied, they would." ”

"You smashed the bottle in front of the academy today, and Bella has been busy for the past few days." Oleg spread his hands, "Today I saw Bella crying. ”

Carlos listened to him say something, and his heart sank a little, and when he heard Oleg say that Bella was crying, Carlos was completely panicked, "She, she cried, I, I'll go find her." ”

Olegra grabbed Carlos, "Hey, what's the matter! What's the use of you going to Bella now, it will only make her sadder. ”

Carlos paused at his feet, yes, Bella definitely didn't want to see him.

Oleg picked up the empty plate and stood up, "Carlos, think about it, for you and for Bella. ”

The door shut, and the room fell silent.

On August 27, Su Qingjia came to La Masia again after a month. The sky is still very blue, and the doorman still likes to drink beer as water.

Two days ago, Su Qingjia received an invitation to watch the game from the same city express, La Masia U14 match.

And attached are the lineups of both sides.

The number three on the yellow team is Carlos.

Su Qingjia watched it for a long time, and she was about to poke the invitation out of the hole.

The strange aunt wondered whether to go or not? And then the constant tangle began.

When it was over, she ended her summer vacation bedriding, got up early, picked and picked in the closet, and finally changed into a mid-sleeved chiffon skirt - the sunburn on her arm was just right last time, and she didn't want to break her skin again.

After saying hello to the doorman, Su Qingjia walked straight to the playground.

Sitting in the stands, I saw Carlos warming up on the sidelines at a glance, no way, the golden retriever brother's hair has its own "duangduangduang" stunt, shining so brightly, not to mention, well-it seems to be very clean.

"Hey, Bella." Oleg looked excited, ran over from the aisle on the right, and after running over for a hundred meters, he sat down next to Su Qingjia without blushing or panting, "The little beauty is beautiful again, the cheap little golden retriever." Eh, let's get an invitation. ”

Su Qingjia raised the letter in his hand, "Oh, the invitation is here, do you want to see it?" ”

"Cut, what kind of invitation do I read, I don't know how many times I've read this invitation, let me tell you, I found out when the little golden retriever wrote it secretly, haha, and hid it and didn't show it to me." Oleg pointed to Carlos, who was warming up, "This little guy has a black belly, didn't he just take it out of his clothes and take a look?" He told my coach directly that the day before yesterday I ran out and didn't train, which caused me to be retrained. Hey, Bella, don't let him fool you. ”

Su Qingjia couldn't help but smile, very hard, and said, "Mmmm, I know, I'll be careful, but I don't have as much black material as you." ”

Oleg blew up, "I don't have black material, I'm all good material!" It's all good material! You bad people know how to slander good people! I'm sorry for helping you like this! ”

Su Qingjia: "......"
