Sleepy man on the side of the street
Looking out the window, the sky was full of stars, and I stretched out my hand, but I could only catch it.
The pain began to reappear, and I walked into the room weakly, looking at the whole packet of medicine in front of me, and smiled wryly.
After taking the medicine, I lay on the bed, tears flowing from the corners of my eyes, and I was still afraid of death?
Gradually, my eyelids closed, and today, too, I am tired.
……
"Bell-Bell-Bell"
The phone rang, and I opened my eyes, and the sun shone through the window.
I picked up my phone and thought it was a ringtone, but the truth was that it was a call from my mother.
After connecting, I heard my mother's soft voice.
"Chunyang, why didn't you go to school, did the illness recur? The teacher said, this is the second time, and I told the teacher that you are sick. ”
"I don't have to worry about you, I'll explain to the teacher when I get to school, is there anything else? If you don't, hang up. ”
"Hmm...... You pay more attention to your body. ”
I hung up the phone, and there was a round of sunrise hanging outside.
"Looks like I've overslept."
I washed up, got dressed, took my medicine, put on my bag and went out, not to school, of course, but to the café.
I really can't get any interest in the two English lessons this morning, so I might as well take this opportunity to go back to the class in the afternoon.
Walk through the crowded streets and find that quiet place.
The familiar aroma of coffee lingers on the tip of the nose again.
I pushed the door open.
"Welcome, what do you want?"
"Brother Jiang Sen, can you take a snack?"
I took out my work clothes from my bag and put them on, and put them at the front desk.
"Chunyang? What are you doing here? It's not a weekend. ”
Chen Hao also saw me and walked over after serving a good coffee to a customer.
"Because of some accidents, I'll go back in the afternoon, and shouldn't I share the pressure for you two who want to be wives?"
"Ahem, let's still work, I'm sad when I talk about this topic." Chen Hao sighed with emotion.
"Hmm."
I started entertaining customers, and just like that, we were busy until noon, and although there were not many customers, the manager asked for the best quality service for any customer, and of course we didn't dare to slack off, so it was not easy.
I changed into civilian clothes, said to Jiang Sen, and prepared to leave.
I was walking down the street, and the sun was shining on me, and it was exceptionally warm.
"Another excuse, huh?"
My eyes looked at a chair in front of the street-side restaurant, where someone was sleeping, a briefcase in hand, and a man on the side of the road wrapped tightly in a duckbill hat.
"Aren't you afraid of thieves?" I didn't want to be nosy, and I was going to leave, but I felt that the man was a little familiar, so I took another look.
"The man who saved me earlier?"
At this moment, the man walked over slowly, I frowned slightly, and followed him, because I usually walked very softly, this time I deliberately hid it, and he didn't notice it.
When his hand reached for the briefcase, I was sure he was a thief.
"Hey, what are you doing?"
I spoke flatly, as if I was greeting a friend, but the voice was not small.
The man was agitated and withdrew his hand.
The man was also awakened and looked at the two of us in astonishment.
"No, nothing."
The man spoke in a panic and hurried away, the man hadn't figured out the situation yet, and I didn't bother to chase after him.
"Uncle, there's a coffee shop over there, it's where I work, you can rest there."
"You are? The boy before? ”
"Well, the man was going to steal your bag just now, and I saw it, it's not safe here."
"Thank you, the documents in my bag are very important to me, but I don't want to go there yet, I was going to take a nap on the side of the road for a few minutes, I didn't expect there to be a thief, thank you very much."
After the man thanked me again, he took a car and left, which made me wonder, what is so important, maybe it is for his unborn daughter, from his look that day, it can be seen that his daughter's condition is not very good, it is estimated that the fetus is unstable, so he ran to the major hospitals to find a way, and in the briefcase, it is naturally about the information about the fetus, but falling asleep on the street, it is too lack of sleep.
But I'm not a person to get to the bottom of things, these are just my conjectures, everyone has their own secrets, don't I hide my illness from everyone the same?
But no matter what the man's reason is, I also very much hope that the child can be born safely, and it can be seen from that day that this child has parents who care about her very much, which is something I envy.
When I arrived at the school, it was already lunch break, I explained the situation to the head teacher, of course it was a lie, I said that I had a stomach problem, but she was obviously a little unhappy, too, there are students like me who can happen at any time, it is really her misfortune, she told me to pay more attention to my body, and then let me go back to the class for a lunch break.
I don't know if it's my luck or my misfortune to have such a class teacher.
Back to the seat, as a tablemate, she will naturally ask me about the situation, my perfunctory teacher's set of rhetoric perfunctory to her again, she is very unconvinced, but also did not ask, this is in my expectation, after all, she is likely to know my condition, but she is not mentioned at all in front of me, which makes me very helpless, but no one can ask the classmate, "Are you sick, about to die?" "That's the case.
Nor would I have said, "Did you know I was going to die?" It's a little too scary.
Perhaps, this is a tacit understanding, to keep that boundary point, but not to break it.
After the lunch break, the first class in the afternoon was physics, which is my favorite subject, but she was drowsy in this class.
"Didn't you sleep well yesterday?"
After class, I continued to organize my notes from class, glancing at her lying on the table and looking like she was about to fall asleep.
"Ah, Chunyang, don't bother me to sleep, wow, I'm so sleepy."
“……”
This coquettish tone made the eyes of the people around him turn to this place.
But it didn't make a difference to me, after all, I didn't care much about other people's eyes.
After sorting out the notes, the class bell rang in a hurry, and she was still lying on the table, this is the head teacher's Chinese class, to be seen by her, I am afraid that I don't know what will come out.
"Hey, Sakuraku-san, it's class."
"Oh."
She opened her sleepy eyes, looking very haggard.
I stopped talking, but took out my Chinese textbook and began to prepare.
However, during the class, I always felt that the head teacher was watching me, probably because I didn't tell her several times in a row, but there should be nothing to say about this kind of thing.
She didn't sleep in the remaining classes, which also saved me from the gaze of my classmates, after all, every time I called her, there were always many people looking at her, which made me very helpless, but there was nothing I could do, I couldn't stop others from liking her.
When the last class was over, I packed my bag and left, but she followed.
"Chunyang, do you want to go home together?"
"I have some other things to do today, so I won't be home for a while."
I said lightly, as for what it is, it is natural to go to the café to work, and it should be like this every day in the future, except for holidays.
"And where are you going?" She asked.
"Cafe."
I stopped and walked in the direction of the café, which was not far from my school.
She hesitated for a moment, then followed.
"Can I go along? My parents are not at home, and it's boring to be alone. ”
"Then you should go to a female classmate, not a male classmate like me."
"Slightly, because, I like Chunyang-classmate you."
