3. The mood of first love

His wife had to go abroad for several months to study before he could come back, and the child was sent to his grandmother's house for Sunday, no one cared about it and no one bothered him, and when Huo Heng slept and slept freely, it was already ten o'clock in the morning when he opened his eyes again. I took out my phone from under the pillow,A piece of the lower right corner of the screen was broken,Rippled and shattered around,I secretly wondered in my heart,Although this broken pattern is exquisite,But this broken screen is not a good omen,A trace of strangeness slipped through my heart for no reason。

WeChat didn't receive any news, and was slightly disappointed, "Why didn't Liangzi send a message to question?" "Why is Ryoko so calm?" Huo Heng couldn't guess the thoughts of young people like Liangzi, could it be that the post-90s generation was so open and didn't care about this kind of thing? My head hurts, my whole body has no strength, and the inside of my mouth still stinks. It was four o'clock in the morning when I got home last night, and I was so sleepy that I didn't have time to wash up, so I fell asleep.

The son's window was wide open, and the wind moved with the curtains of large purple flowers, and the smiling face of Ryoko could not help but come to mind, which was the unique agility and coquettishness of a twenty-year-old girl, with a pair of big eyes flickering, so cute that I wanted to hold it in the palm of my hand all the time. When I close my eyes, I still have the touch of Ryoko's soft body when I was warm last night...... I can't help but fantasize that if I had listened to the drunken Ryoko and stayed at her house last night, would they break through the last line of defense? Huo Heng wasn't sure, but he was actually afraid, afraid that he would become the kind of villain who took advantage of others, and that he would ruin his image in Liangzi's mind, so he was glad that he didn't go, and at the same time he was a little regretful, in case he couldn't see Liangzi again......

Man, such a contradictory creature.

"Got up? Headaches? ”

The mobile phone vibrate, Liangzi didn't dare to see who sent the message, but he couldn't help but hold his breath to look, as soon as he saw that it was Huo Heng's news, his whole heart was about to jump out, as if he could hear the sound of the coagulated blood flowing in the veins after the whole body thawed in an instant. picked up the phone and put it down, just repeatedly, hesitating whether to reply to the message in such a hurry, and the fingertips were already pressing the send button very obediently.

"On the bus home."

Huo Heng sat up from the bed in shock, looked at Liangzi's WeChat avatar in a daze, and then collapsed on the bed in a daze, and only returned after two minutes, "Can't you go if you don't go?" "Only after the successful delivery did I realize that my question was so stupid, people are already on the way back, what is the point of asking now.

"Forehead ......"

Ryoko didn't know how to answer, turned her head to look out the window, in the distance were low mountains, houses with red spires were built against the mountains, half submerged in large areas of green vegetation, not so much that she liked this kind of living environment, but that she was more fond of being close to green, to all things primitive, wild, and natural. How good would it be if they could stay in such a house with Huo Heng...... What a stupid woman, she can't help but start fantasizing about all kinds of possibilities, and Ryoko can't help but laugh at herself.

"I'm sorry, Ryoko, I drank too much last night."

"Don't say that, yesterday's incident was my own will, and I don't regret it. You don't have too much psychological burden, just forget about it as a dream. All right? In fact, Liangzi has a lot of things to say, but she can't, she has to make a gesture of not caring, at least she can't let Huo Heng see that she cares very much, and she can't let Huo Heng look down on herself......

Liangzi didn't know that at this time, Huo Heng's heart was tightly pinched together, and a huge sense of sadness spread from the bottom of his heart to his entire chest.

Why do you think that Liangzi is like a gust of wind, she wants to catch it but can't catch it, her chest is stuffy, and it's even more depressing than the German team lost, so let her go? Huo Heng asked himself. Before this, it was not that he had met all kinds of women, but he never dared to break through his bottom line, but it was the first time that he couldn't help feeling sorry for someone like now, and he wanted to build a small nest to hide her and love her.

Perhaps, he should have been impulsive for himself.

"I'm sorry, Ryoko, I really like you, I won't forget you! Your headphones fell on me, I'm driving to you now, the bus is driving slowly, I should be able to catch up now! ”

Liangzi felt that she was bad, and she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, she was obviously carrying a bag last night, and the headphones were not taken out to use, how could she go to him? I think he deliberately took it last night while he was drunk, so that he could have an excuse to contact him in the future. is such a subjective conjecture that made Ryoko excited for a while, but the words he said were so indifferent.

"No, just throw it away or make a memorial."

Sure enough, seeing these short words from the mobile phone screen, and feeling that Liangzi's tone was so ruthless and cold, Huo Heng was very disappointed, and he hoped to hear Liangzi's equally enthusiastic answer, and hoped that he was not hot. But the truth makes me feel like a balloon that is bored by a child, forgotten in the corner, even if I realize that I am slowly leaking air, it is a helpless thing.

"Ryoko, we, will we see each other again?"

Ryoko's eyes were red, and she was about to overflow.

"Yes." She was convinced more than anyone else.

"I'll definitely be back."

He knows better than anyone else what Ryoko is like, and as long as he makes a promise, he will definitely do it. Huo Heng got up from the bed, opened the curtains, and the sun hula fell into the room at once, and his mood instantly became brighter, probably only Liangzi could make his mood so ups and downs, cloudy and uncertain! But he likes this feeling so much, as if he has returned to the age of his early twenties, the feeling when he is simply in love with someone, whether it is believing in Ryoko's character to do what he says or out of his own selfishness, as long as he wants to, Ryoko will not escape from the palm of his hand, and Ryoko will definitely come back. The hunger came so suddenly, Huo Heng hummed a tune, quickly ran to the bathroom to wash, and while brushing his teeth, he thought that he would go downstairs to get something to eat later, just go and order a bowl of ramen, it is long and tendonous, and the clear soup should be sprinkled with clear and countable coriander leaves, the kind that Liangzi likes to eat.

When it comes to eating, I can't help but think of Liangzi, and when I laugh, my eyebrows and eyes are crooked, like a cup of sweet pearl milk tea, thinking like this, Huo Heng looked at himself in the mirror and laughed unconsciously, he was a big man who wanted to buy a cup of milk tea for himself, okay, he still had to put a lot of pearls.

Dressed neatly and ready to go downstairs but can't find the car keys, he often puts a few places, coffee table, hallway, shoe rack have been found, if his wife is there, he must have to help him find it while complaining, saying something why can't be put in the same place and so on, which makes him very irritable.

A little frustrated, he casually threw his son's toys aside, only to find that the car keys were hidden under his son's toys on the sofa. It was a remote-controlled car that he bought online for his son's third birthday, and it was expensive.

Muttering about why the car keys were there, he couldn't help but glance back at the remote-controlled car before leaving the door. I don't know if my son has been adapting to his grandmother's house for the past two days, and whether he is obedient.

4. Not home

It's only been three or four months and I haven't returned, the small county town doesn't seem to be the same as in my impression, it is a little small compared with the big city, and even a little dilapidated, the iron fence of the ticket window has a thick layer of rust, and the eldest sister sitting in it is chewing gum in her mouth, and the mobile phone is playing a domestic TV series. To the right of the window is a long row of glass doors, which are covered with dust, but you can still see the buses coming and going to the villages and towns in the parking lot. The station was sparsely populated, and there were two rows of seats in the waiting area, a few of which were broken and not repaired, or no one had come to repair them, and there were some food crumbs on the seats, and a few clumps of toilet paper and food packaging bags scattered underneath.

Ryoko doesn't quite understand, obviously the trash can is next to it, and the problem can be solved by standing up and walking two steps, but there are always people who don't do it, and human nature is really an unpredictable, mysterious and complicated thing.

Luckily, I stood and waited for about ten minutes to get the bus home.

I was also glad to have the keys to my house.

With this in mind, you might even win a small prize by buying a scratch ticket.

When I opened the door, a choking smell of decay came to my nose, and a layer of shallow ash fell on the floor and table, especially the incense burner on the living room table. Dad's clothes, socks, and panties were messily spread on the sofa, and I don't know if they were clean or needed to be washed, or if they were simply mixed up. Pull the suitcase back to his room, furnished as before leaving, as if no one had come in at all, open the window, draw up the curtains, and change the sheets and covers. I opened the refrigerator to find something to pad my stomach, but I found that not only did there be nothing to eat in the refrigerator, but there were also large stains on the shelves, a bitter gourd had rotted in the refrigerator, and half a steamed bun that was as hard as a stone.

Ryoko wanted to sit down and rest, but found that there was no place to stay, and the place never gave her the feeling of home. sighed, how does Dad live alone at home? After cleaning up from the beginning, folding clothes, washing clothes, wiping the table, sweeping the floor, mopping the floor, after this series of actions was completed, Ryoko was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist at all, and she was paralyzed on the sofa motionless.

All the windows were opened, and the wind blew in, whirring.

I thought about at least cooking the rice first and then going out to buy vegetables, but I found that the rice in the rice bowl had already given birth to small insects, and as soon as I opened the lid, I crawled out densely, and I was so frightened that Liangzi quickly covered the lid back.

Why is the sound of the wind blowing in so loud, it is deafening.

I can't help but complain.

When I came to the windowsill, all the green plants planted by my mother were dead in pots and basins, and the soil in the pots was crumbling and cracking, and Ryoko poked it with her finger, which was as hard as granite.

"After all these years, why do you still want to shed tears? I'm still too cowardly. ”

Even if I have made up my mind to go back to school tomorrow afternoon, I still have to prepare everything for my father, who lives alone, and my brother continues to go back to my freshman year, and my mother goes to school to accompany me......

Ryoko took a deep breath and exhaled a long breath, wiped her tears, and planned to go shopping at the supermarket.

Before going to the supermarket, I made a long shopping list in a small notebook. Her money is to be spent carefully, in addition to food for the three months of internship, a total of 9,300 yuan was saved on the bank card, and the plan is to repay a one-year college loan, that is, 4,200 yuan, and the living expenses of the remaining two months will also be removed, which will take about 1,200 yuan, and the living expenses, rent, water and electricity in the first month after graduation will be at least 2,000 yuan. In addition to the daily necessities such as toilet paper, laundry detergent, and toothpaste, I also have to buy a small bag of rice, which is enough for my father to eat alone for a while; I also have to buy a carton of pure milk, which Dad can drink directly in the morning if he doesn't want to cook; You have to pick a dozen apples, and my father doesn't like to eat other fruits; I also have to buy a few carrots, a cauliflower, and a Chinese cabbage, all of which my father likes, so that you can cook at least two or three dishes in the evening.

When I was about to check out, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't bought eggs, so I hurriedly turned back and got a dozen, and then I left with confidence.

It wasn't until the fresh smell of rice came from the rice cooker that Ryoko's mood was a little more relaxed, and he moved his eyes to the window that had not yet been closed, it was already dark, and he couldn't see anything in the dark sky, and then he remembered that he hadn't called his father to urge him to go home for dinner.

"You should have said it in advance when you come back, I'll pick you up at the station, and the house will be cleaned up in advance."

After changing his shoes at the door, Ryoko's father was a little embarrassed to see the unusually simple home and the dishes on the dinner table, rubbed his hands, and smiled awkwardly.

"It's also convenient to take the bus back."

"That's why don't I pick you up, I'm idle at home anyway."

Ryoko put the rice in place, brought it over, and said to her father, who was covered in the smell of smoke, "Hurry up and wash your hands and come over to eat." ”

You don't have to think about it to know where it went.

Liangzi's father didn't have anything to do all day, he didn't smoke or drink and didn't have the courage to gamble, so he was bored in an empty house alone, so he often went to the private supermarket downstairs to watch people play cards and chat with people.

"Hey!" Liangzi's father was a little cramped, and habitually raised his right hand to touch his head, but found that his hair had grown out all over, fluffy, and he was relieved when he heard Liangzi's urging, and walked quickly to the bathroom as if he was running.

After washing your hands, turn on the TV first, it is CCTV's news broadcast, and it has been on. Ryoko was as silent as her father, one seemed to be concentrating on eating, the other seemed to be watching the news seriously, and when she was about to finish eating, Ryoko finally took the lead in speaking, "I'll go back to school tomorrow afternoon." ”

"I just came back today and I'm leaving tomorrow, can't I stay at home for a few more days?"

"There's still a lot of work to be done at school."

"Oh. It's better to do your business first. Seeing that his father seemed to be secretly relieved, Liangzi suddenly felt pity, and it was difficult for him to say such words to save him, if he really stayed at home for a few days, he might not be embarrassed and uncomfortable between the two.

"I bought some rice in the rice jar in the kitchen, and I have already thrown out the original ones. You remember to cook and eat by yourself, don't spoil it again. ”

"Hmm."

"There was milk and apples in the fridge, and some vegetables, don't forget to eat them either."

"Actually, you don't have to go out of your way to buy it, I can take care of myself......" Liangzi's father's words were halfway through, and a pair of eyes that originally looked at Liangzi drifted away, maybe he didn't feel much confidence, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Ryoko didn't answer again, and packed up the rice bowls and plates and took them to wash.

I still forgot to close the kitchen window, the wind blowing in was cool, and the fluffy hair in my ears rubbed against my chin with the wind and was a little itchy. Looking up at the lights of the thousands of homes in the residential building opposite, Ryoko was a little distracted.

Why do the lights in other people's homes always look particularly warm?
