Chapter 54: The World Inside the Half-Arched Door
Butterflies like animals very much, dogs and cats, all of them are what she loves, so she is not like other girls who will be scared, she looks at the dog with a smile. Hai's master reprimanded it, and it immediately quieted down, but it still stared at the two of them with a fierce look, watching them change their shoes and enter the door, and the owner was polite and warm, which seemed to ease its anxiety and dissatisfaction a little. It wagged its short tail and followed them into the living room.
JJ said there, "The last time I came, it was a puppy, it was that big, and now it's that big?" As he spoke, he gestured with his two hands to a size, probably the size of a ball.
"You don't recognize me now?"
The old man was obviously the groom's father, with half-white hair, a cashmere cardigan, reading glasses, and an amiable appearance, and said with a smile: "Hay is not good at this, and people I don't know like to scream." But after a while, I get acquainted with you, and it's fine, so I won't call it now. β
"It doesn't recognize me anymore," JJ said. β
"You're going to come often."
At this time, Hai had been wandering around their feet, sniffing their breath carefully, and the butterfly was tempted to reach out and touch its head, but after all, it was not familiar with its temper, what if it was not happy? So just standing and looking at it, it stared at her with its dark brown eyes, which were as pure as the first dew drop of the morning.
While they were laughing, the groom came out of the room, saw JJ and hugged him warmly, saying, "Oh, here, it's okay on the road, right?" β
"There are very few cars on the road today. It takes me less than fifteen minutes to drive here, and it's usually at least half an hour. β
"Come on, come to my room."
Hay has been taken away by the old man, JJ introduces the butterfly to the groom, and also introduces the groom to the butterfly, the groom is a slightly chubby young man, looks clean, wears a white shirt, brand new, brand new trousers underneath, and the hairstyle is obviously well-groomed, but the overall look is still relatively casual, obviously everything is still in progress, because it is still early.
He smiled and said that they were still debugging the music of the day, not only the music, but even the music video was made by himself. He said casually, in fact, his face was full of pride. JJ said to the butterfly on the side, "Look at how capable young people are nowadays." The boastful rhetoric made the butterfly a little confused, and she just smiled in agreement.
Passing through the living room is facing the two bedrooms, one is the parents' room, the other is his room, entering the bedroom, there is actually a room inside, there is a door on the wall, set up very hidden, if it is not for the groom's prompt, maybe the butterfly will not find it for a while, because it is a semi-arched door, and the color of the door is exactly the same as the color of the wall, the groom led them, hurried through the bedroom, and pushed the door into the secret room.
Butterfly hurriedly glanced at the bedroom, in fact, the furnishings are very simple, just a double bed, a wall is designed as a wardrobe, of course, after all, it will be the life of two people, or it will become the life of three people, things will be like dust, unconsciously accumulating more and more, and by the time you realize that it has encroached on all your living space, it is already completely out of control.
At that time, when my father changed houses and moved, I didn't know how many things I threw away, many of them were things she had when she was a child, clothes, toys, and all kinds of messy things. Looking at the garbage piled up on the small road, the butterfly couldn't help but laugh dumbly and said, "Oh my God, it turns out that there is so much garbage hidden in the house, and we live in garbage and waste."
Dad was also very helpless, and even a little reluctant, saying, it's still a very good thing, but it's a pity that it's going to be thrown away in vain, and the people who pick it up are cheap for them. You see, this toy is not broken, and it can be played with by children.
For Dad, these things carry memories that butterflies can't understand, and these memories accompany him as he grows old, and there is more sadness in his sighs. Perhaps his memory is still stuck in the moment when she was salivaing and fiddling with toys, and he has suddenly become a slim and beautiful girl, stubborn and independent, and he still hopes that she will stretch out her immature little hand and beg him to hug it......
Life is like this, everything gradually becomes the past, the past gradually becomes memory, and the memory gradually makes people gloomy.
The butterfly said, "Dad, who wants these things now, throw them away, are you going to take them all to your new home?" If you want to stay, Aunt Gao may not be willing.
Dad later pondered that it was the same, after all, his daughters were all adults, and his future children would buy new things, and the old ones were outdated after all. ruthlessly, all thrown in the trash.
Butterfly has been to Fang Yun's house several times before and after, her house is also like this, every time she goes, she can find that there are more things in the house, the original aisle outside the kitchen was empty, and then a single bed was placed, and later a small round table was added, which became the place where her mother lived. In the room, on the balcony, things are also constantly piling up, and the last time the butterfly went to her house, there was almost no place for people to stand, under the bed, next to the bed, and almost every gap was crowded with things.
Butterfly escaped in panic, and she warned herself that life must not be additional, but subtraction.
Butterflies still maintain the habit of not buying random things, and do not move back home unless absolutely necessary. Her home, with its empty walls, is empty, and she enjoys the feeling of emptiness. For her who has a serious cleanliness habit, this kind of empty space is very easy to clean. And butterflies also like to devote themselves to writing in a clean environment.
The room is emptied, and the mind can open up a larger space and carry more abundant thoughts.
Looking at the beautiful newlywed bedroom in front of them, butterflies can almost imagine what it will be like in a year or two years.
Life is all about stacking and crowding. If you don't have absolute self-control over items, you'll quickly be overwhelmed by them.
Some people get used to collecting garbage when they get older, and more and more garbage will completely drown their whole life.
Is life a process of being submerged?
The butterfly followed them into the half-arched door, and as she entered, she looked at it and wondered why it was like this, and to be honest, it was a little out of place with the overall dΓ©cor of all the rooms here, if it weren't for the sheer desire to be different or unconventional.
Not only is the door abrupt, but the decoration style of this secret room is completely different from the room outside. The secret room is not large, apparently designed as a study, with LED TVs, computer desks, various audio equipment, and a fireplace. The overall feeling gives people a dull and oppressive feeling, as if you have come to a medieval cave.
Another reason is that the curtains are always low. Apparently the owner of this room does not like too strong light, and the darkness seems to be more inspiring. Butterflies can understand this, after all, the other party is also engaged in creative work.
