Chapter 157: The First Fetal Movement
At the end of summer, I finally know the scenery behind the boundless sea of sand and lonely cacti, a pure white world that will completely captivate anyone who has been there will be completely amazed by this breathtaking beauty.
In this endless white world, the end of summer feels pure and tranquil like never before.
DK laughs, "If it's December or January during the rainy season, it's going to be even more breathtaking. It will be like a giant mirror that reflects all the qiē views, the sun, the blue sky, the white clouds, the sunset and the tourists. I think that's the closest place to heaven in the legend. ”
"How did you discover such a beautiful place?" At the end of summer, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"I discovered this place when I fell out of love, you know that love has always been the source of my creation, and when I arrived here, I found that the one qiē given by nature to human beings is the inexhaustible source of creation." There was indescribable satisfaction and joy in his tone.
"That's why you showed Frannie your wanderlust to photograph nature, and then she was inspired to create ELDY. The bad thing is that she is also completely in love with nature and travel, and we can hardly find any trace of her. ”
"yes, because I feel like she needs to get out of some framework, and that's what I meant to be." He spread his hands helplessly, who knew that she actually went wandering by herself and didn't call her.
Late Summer didn't say anything about it, because they had known each other for so long, and he must have complained about Frannie's solitary journey. Turning to the view: "Why is this happening?" It's amazing, everything in front of me is shiny, what a dreamy world. ”
She looked at this strange scene in front of her happily, and felt that the breath in her chest was much smoother.
Olivier felt that they were making too much of a fuss, and he felt that he had an obligation to teach the basics, so he said in a cold tone: "You are making too much fuss, and the reason for this strange scene is very simple, this is the salt flats, that is, the salt marshes. A large area of land covered with salt and minerals has been thinned out due to evaporation being greater than precipitation, and the minerals in the water have been accumulated over many years. ”
He looked at the two of them with smugness, and continued: "As for its transformation into a mirror in the rainy season, it will be even simpler. Because the water cannot be drained during the rainy season, most of the giant salt flats are covered with a thin layer of water. ”
At the end of the summer, he said: "Then what is shining in front of you is not a dream, but salt." ”
Olivier nodded: "We have just driven past many lakes of different colors and structures, which are actually salt flats, which are brick red, green, turquoise or silver-gray depending on the minerals contained in the salt. Moreover, there are many rare substances. ”
DK gave him a blank look: "Don't show off, do you think everyone else is an idiot?" It's called fantasy and feelings, you know? ”
At the end of the summer, he was afraid that they would quarrel again, and said with a smile: "Olivier studied science, how can you talk to him about feelings, and he will know the ingredients directly." ”
DK thought about it too, closed his mouth and continued to look at the beautiful view. But Olivier quit, you must know that he will not give an inch to the engineering man in his professional field.
"I'm not ostentatious or blind, it's all scientific common sense. What I don't understand is you, it's just a pile of salt spread on the ground, what's so nice to see. ”
"Are we blind, who don't know that it's salt, it's introduced in the tourist guide. It's not showmanship, so what were you just doing? How much time is wasted by saying so many things? ”
"You're so unreasonable, you stopped to talk about your ridiculous creative source first. I'm in popular science knowledge, and you should thank me. ”
At the end of the summer, she held her forehead with a headache, knowing that it would be like this, and suddenly she felt her stomach twitch hard, so she screamed and touched her stomach incredulously.
Olivier anxiously asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong, is it that we are too noisy to scare the baby?" ”
She was answered by another exclamation from the end of the summer, followed by a trembling voice: "Look at what time it is, get my diary." ”
DK slowly took out his diary: "It's 8:05 in the morning, what did she do to you?" ”
At the end of the summer, I quickly wrote in Chinese: At 8:05 a.m. in the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, the baby kicked me for the first time, and it felt amazing. I could feel her tenacious vitality, what a surprising scene, and what a headstrong and messy mom I was. Thank you, for having you.
The two big men just looked at the end of the summer in the beautiful scenery, crying and laughing and writing words that they couldn't understand at all, and winked at each other.
Closing the notebook at the end of summer: "The baby kicked me just now, maybe she thinks it's too beautiful here, or maybe it's because you are too noisy to affect her sleep." ”
Olivier immediately put his hand on her stomach: "Really? Why didn't I feel her moving, did you lie to me? ”
DK slapped his hand away at once: "Don't touch, she's a girl." Ah, she kicked me, it's amazing. ”
"Over there, there's no movement over there. Sweetheart, are you playing daddy? ”
"Tut-tut, it is said that babies are the most sensitive to sound, and she doesn't like you."
"Really? But I didn't do anything. Sweetheart, do you really dislike me? Why don't you like me, can you move it? ”
Xia Mo helplessly looked at the big boy who was squatting on the ground staring at her stomach, unable to complain, and then asked, "Are there any hotels around here?" It's such a waste to live in town and go back and forth for so long, I would like to stay here. On the one hand, I was able to finish the shoot as much as I could, and on the other hand, I really fell in love with it. ”
"Salluna Salada Hotel is the only building near the salt flats, the living environment is very primitive, and the food style is very simple, I am afraid that you can't stand it, so I didn't book here."
"After experiencing such a beautiful place, do you think I will go anywhere else?"
"I think so too." In fact, he booked this hotel at the beginning, but it was temporarily changed due to the special situation at the end of summer. Now like this, it will be more convenient to shoot in post.
The other man was stumbling at the baby in his belly at the end of summer, but as soon as he put his hand on it, she stayed quiet, and he was very depressed.
The filming at the end of the summer went quite smoothly, and DK took into account her physical condition, so the shooting time was basically scheduled in the early morning or late afternoon, and the process was accelerated. Fortunately, at the end of summer, he has always been a person with a full sense of camera, and he didn't worry too much. But even so, I was tired enough to choke after a few hours a day.
The beautiful color contrast, the colorful and metallic gown stands out in the light-colored light, and the endless desert presents an ethereal and misty feeling under the light, like a natural nude background.
Relying on the blue sky in the distance, the late summer wearing a golden wig and the sparkling sand shuo reflect and merge with each other, but the gentle tone expresses a fiery feeling; The glamorous and longing eyes extend infinitely with the hands of the end of summer, so that the person looking at the photo only wants to explore what she really sees and desires.
Just a glance swept into the eyes with the dryness and barrenness of the desert like a strong wind, which makes people re-understand the word 'desire' as if they were there, which is in line with the theme of the magazine.
At the end of summer, there were very few full-body photos in this shoot, and even if there were, it was a tightly wrapped scene.
DK masterfully captures the visual sense created by dynamic and exaggerated movements, presenting delicate elegance and fantastic magical style in the vast desert. or exaggerated madness, or blurred eyes, as if real or illusory.
But one of the things that makes the end of summer unbearable is that the temperature is too high, even if she picks the most comfortable time to come out, the temperature is still unbearable, and she begins to admire the people who have survived here for a long time.
Life is really human instinct, and no matter how bad the environment is, it can't be stopped.
As soon as Olivier saw that the shooting was over, he immediately stepped forward to unbutton her coat and handed over the kettle: "What do you think, can you eat?" Are you perverted, even if you have a tulle backless dress, let her wear a woolen coat to shoot on a hot day, is this what is called fashion? Do you know what degrees it is? Can't you see that she's pregnant? I think you're the executioner. ”
DK didn't accept the magazine's staff, and she knew that she didn't want too many people to know about it at the end of the summer, so the assistants she hired were either local modeling agency partners or acquaintances, and no one paid attention to his clamour.
Summer looked at everyone apologetically, she knew that her special situation had caused them a lot of trouble, so she had to end it early. "Olivier, I'm fine, it's my choice, it's nothing to do with anyone."
"I don't understand why you have so much real estate and so much smart, why do you want to keep this job, you can live a better life." The longer he stayed with the end of summer, the more he felt that this woman was strange, and that she could have lived an easier life, but she always abused herself.
During this time, he heard a lot about the end of summer from DK, and he thought it was very incredible, and at the same time admired her strength. After all, not all women are willing to continue giving birth to small children of jerk men who abandon her. At least not the women he knew, although the only women he knew were the women in the family, but it should be enough.
Xia Mo said with a smile: "Because I love this job, it has made me experience a different life." ”
Olivier: "That's what it's like, I just know that after graduation I'll go into a hospital, start from the grassroots and eventually run the hospital. Shouldn't work be like this? ”
Xia Mo smiled and said, "Maybe you'll know later." ”
DK said loudly on the side, "Okay, we're done with this shooting, and we'll leave home tomorrow." ”
Olivier cheered happily, then touched the belly of the end of the summer and said, "Sweetheart, baby, tomorrow is leaving, aren't you going to say hello to your daddy in this beautiful place?" ”
Xia Mo smiled and said, "You haven't died yet? Perhaps, she really doesn't like you. ”
As soon as the words fell, the little guy in the belly actually disagreed with her mother for the first time, and kicked his hand on the stomach several times in a row.
"Ahh Do you feel it? She kicked me. ”
Xia Mo looked at his stupid appearance and smiled unusually happily: "Yes, she is kicking you, I feel it." ”
"Look here, it's good." DK recorded the scene with the camera in his hand: the smirking Olivier, the late summer glow of motherhood, and the slightly bulging lower abdomen, which seemed so pure in this simple blue and white world.
This photo reveals a faint sense of warmth, so that everyone who sees it will be sure that this is a happy family. This made a certain domineering man jealous for a long time.
Olivier pointed to DK and said, "Did you capture this historic moment?" You're a well-known photographer, you must have captured it, show me. ”
DK continued to sing the opposite tune: "Do you know now that I'm a well-known photographer? You said you would let you watch it, would you? Dream. ”
"Don't force me to do it, or you'll be miserable."
"How miserable, I'd love to know."
At the end of summer, he watched the two of them compete for the camera, shook his head helplessly, and a gust of wind brought up the bandana of the end of summer; Turning his head and reaching for it, it happened to be recorded by Olivier. And this casual photo actually won the nationality photography award two years later, which was unexpected by everyone.
……………
Life is too comfortable to make people lazy, and I didn't leave at the end of the summer when I returned to New York.
One is that she has a cold and fever; Second, she feels that the efficiency of French hospitals is a bit slow; the third is that she received an invitation to go to the main show of the opening show of Fashion Week in New York; It was a rare opportunity, but it came two weeks after she gave birth.
Therefore, she didn't want to go back and forth again, not only herself, but also the baby.
Olivier put down the tray in his hand, and immediately put a glass of fresh orange juice and a few vitamin tablets. "Are you sure you don't use drugs? I asked my doctor, there are pills that don't have a big impact, and you need to alleviate the symptoms a little. ”
Lying on a chair at the end of the summer and watching the sunset: "Forget it, no matter how safe it is, it's medicine, I don't want Salluna to be affected." She decided to use the name of the hotel as the child's English name, because it was where she had her first fetal move, and she seemed to like it so much that she came back depressed for a long time.
He picked up the cup and handed it over: "Maybe you're right. Seeing that the end of summer was finished, he sat down on another recliner and asked casually, "Don't you think about my construction?" ”
At the end of the summer, he turned his head and asked suspiciously, "What is built?" ”
"What I said in the desert is no joke, I can be Salluna's daddy."
She coughed twice and touched her stomach: "Aren't you her daddy now?" ”
Olivier looked at her indifferent face: "You know that's not what I said, we can go and get the license, so that she can become a citizen of the United States and enjoy her due rights and live here." Of course, I promise nothing will be done to you. ”
"I know you're not going to do anything to me, but it's good that you don't have to." Late summer's direct refusal, she never wanted to live here for a long time.
He asked, "Is it because the baby is his own father?" You're still thinking about him. Don't you really want to go back to your country? Isn't that a good idea? Change your nationality again, change your name, can't you go back? ”
At the end of the summer, she was stunned, how could she not think of this method, and sure enough, the pregnant woman was the stupidest. "Thank you, but there is no need to do this, the baby will fly around with me and will not live in one place because I can't live without her. Besides, don't you like DK? ”
She has only been confirmed in recent days, because DK has an admirer, and the unhappy Olivier will pick a date time every time to challenge DK's anger.
He looked at the end of the summer in surprise: "Who likes him?" Ha, just kidding, it's not funny at all. Don't change the subject, we're talking about Salluna. ”
Natsumo smiled and said, "Really? I guess I'm thinking too much, you know pregnant women are always prone to crankiness. Since you don't like him, then I'll say it. DK was going to try to understand the man, tonight at 7 o'clock on the 18th floor of the Hilton, we should be happy for him, after all, soulmate is not easy to find. ”
"What, they've only known each other for less than a week, are they crazy?" He said with some excitement: "I suddenly remembered that the hospital has something to do tonight, so I will go first, remember to eat." Bye-bye, Salluna, Daddy loves you. ”
Looking at the man who accidentally kicked her pot of flowers, Xia Mo smiled and said, "Let your mouth be broken and create unexpected surprises in my life, don't blame me for playing tricks on you." ”
The unexpected surprise was his mother and grandmother, whose family was said to have not had a girl for nearly 100 years, and Olivier, who was in arrears, actually came home and shouted that he was about to have a daughter. Then there were surprises every day in the late summer, and his fourth brother and brother took turns to work as family doctors, but each one was in obstetrics and gynecology. What's even more exaggerated is that his mother and grandmother are about to turn the late summer room and baby room into a Disney princess fantasy world.
Their burst of enthusiasm and sincere affection, refusal, the end of the summer could not say a word, for fear of breaking their glassy hearts. This should be the so-called sweet burden.
As if in agreement, the child in the belly kicked her belly, and a small bag bulged out on it. Late summer pressed carefully, and then let go: "You think so too, haha, I got you, naughty." ”
The two of them were just playing around across their bellies, laughing constantly, and those unpleasantness seemed to have been cured long ago, and it didn't matter. (To be continued.) )
