geisha stories

The rain outside the eaves was dripping.

The rain was getting heavier, and I was worried about strawberries and tea trees, so I had to put on clogs and go out with an umbrella. It was a scorching summer day, but I was shivering from the cold, and my feet were already covered with mud when I walked into the field.

There is nothing wrong with the tea tree, but the strawberries are drooping in the soil. I am so distressed, I went to the house to get a basket and picked fresh strawberries. If I can’t send them there today, I will put them tomorrow. It is still edible when it is fresh, and it is better than being destroyed by a storm.

I picked two whole baskets of strawberries, and there were a few left, so I put them in a fruit plate and planned to eat them by myself.

My illness seemed to be getting worse. I started to cough violently, and my consciousness became blurred. Fortunately, I knew in my heart that this was not going to work. When the rain stopped, I went out to the town to get medicine. The doctor told me to sleep well after taking the medicine. Sleep.

On the way back, my vision became blurred. I saw something moving in front of me. I didn’t realize it was a ten-year-old child until he approached me. He probably saw that I was walking unsteadily. He asked me worriedly. How about it.

I said nothing.

But he said: "You are about to collapse, are you sick?" He insisted to come over to support me, "Oh, your hands are so hot, you are really sick, hurry up, I will help you back."

I pushed him, "My home is a little far away."

He insisted, "No! My mother told me that I must help people who are in trouble."

I'm still young, but my heart is warm. I didn't refuse again, and said, "Then I'll trouble you."

He helped me back, and even took care of me to take the medicine, like a little adult. After asking, I found out that he has a younger sister who has been in poor health since she was a child.

I have nothing to thank him here, so I gave him the basket of strawberries I picked earlier, but he refused too much, so I only gave him half of the basket.

After the boy left, I suddenly thought of Takasugi, that man wandered around those wolves in sheep's clothing all day long, he would never appreciate the warmth of this world, if he could be as good as the little guest If you experience life, you will definitely find that as long as you live, there will be things worth cherishing. The sad thing is that Takasugi only wants to live in the past.

The next day my fever subsided, but I was still coughing badly. I couldn’t put any more strawberries in there, otherwise my food would be bad. I changed my clothes and went to Kabukicho.

I really didn't expect that I would be caught straight away. It wasn't a small customer, but that Chinese girl. She was secretly guarding outside Jisong's shop. As soon as I appeared, she would jump out and block me, and then turned to that girl. The boy wearing glasses shouted: "Xinba! Found the target! Go and call Xiaoyin!"

Then the boy ran away in a flash. I couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "Can you let me in?"

She let me into the store, stared straight at my basket, and said, "Don't try to run away, you can't run away with me watching you!"

The little guest is indeed very perceptive. He originally planned to deliver the last basket, but he was discovered unexpectedly. Maybe the boy with glasses remembered it. Is this the so-called evil fate?

I said hello to Jisong, Jisong saw me coughing and asked me how I was doing, I said I had a slight cold, she went to the back room to get me medicine, said it was more effective, I smiled Nod and take it,

The girl was still watching over me, and I asked her, "Would you like something to eat?"

She said: "Don't try to buy me, I can't be bought with delicious food... I want to eat three big bowls of ramen!"

This is really... tell me what to say, but can that little man eat so much?I asked Jisong to cook the noodles, and then I realized that I had really underestimated her stomach. The three-cent bowl of ramen did not satisfy her. She ate a whole five bowls, and the speed was unbelievable.

I put my chin on my cheek and smiled as I watched her eat. She ate very rudely, but she was cute and straightforward. At the end of the meal, she hiccupped with a satisfied expression on her face. grin.

She chatted with me very happily, and the most talked about was the embarrassing things about the little guest. She was very happy when she talked, and I could see that she liked the little guest very much. Yes, it is very nice to be as warm as a little guest It is easy to gain the favor of others.

I was listening to her talking happily, when someone rushed in suddenly, the steaming smoke of hot water lingered in front of my eyes, I could hardly see his face clearly, something was burning hot in my heart, I was silent , until I can make a normal voice: "I brought you strawberries again."

He looked at the basket on the table, then at me, and said, "Ah, since you're here, treat me to dinner and drinks, what are you doing while hiding from me, luckily I ran into you."

"Xiaoyin, you clearly told us to wait here. We've been squatting since four o'clock in the morning, okay? What's a collision? It's premeditated! Your lord is really insidious, bah, bah, bah!" The Chinese girl looked disdainful. .

The corner of the little guest's mouth twitched, "Stinky brat, don't be so wordy here!"

There was a lot of time for reminiscing about the past. We walked out of the noodle shop. He said some irrelevant words, and I followed him and walked side by side with him. At that time, the sun was slightly drunk, and the rainbow in the sky was hidden under the transparent blue sky.

He scratches his head from time to time and complains about the little things in life, occasionally frowns, or smiles happily, he seems to have never changed, maybe in a certain year in the future, his face will already be covered with wrinkles, and he can still scold the uncle next door yesterday did something to piss him off.

We walked to the river, and the water under the embankment was shallow. He mentioned that I blocked him from the knife, and said that he had been injured for a long time after that. When he saw me coughing, he touched my chest. forehead, suddenly said seriously: "I still have a fever, I need to see a doctor."

I shook my head with a wry smile, "The fever subsided in the morning, and now I just have a little cough."

He frowned, "Where do you live now, is anyone taking care of you? Are your eyes okay?"

I said, "I can see clearly, I have very good eyesight."

I told him that I am doing well now, that my home is a little far from Kabukicho, and that I can come here occasionally if I am free in the future, and he asked me, "Do you live alone?"

I nodded, and he said, "It's sad when you're sick and no one takes care of you. Don't be so brave all the time. If you have nothing to do, move to Kabukicho. Yinsang will take care of you."

I smiled and said, "I'm used to it."

He lowered his eyelids, "Accustomed to carrying everything alone? Accustomed to rejecting other people's kindness? Or accustomed to shutting yourself up and completely disregarding the feelings of the people around you?"

I turned around and said lightly: "I think this is very good."

"Really?" He said in a low voice, "If I didn't find you, you planned to leave quietly like this, so in fact, I am not that important to you, why did you send strawberries? You can buy them on the street, and I’m not down to the point where I can’t even afford a few strawberries.”

My heart was pounding, I longed to see him, but now I wanted to escape from him, time passed so slowly.

"I don't know why, but I always think of you being alone, don't say you're used to it, don't say it's good, Yinsang understands you."

I turned and stared at him, he was stunned, I asked him: "Then what do you know about me?"

He reached out and touched my face, "Don't be sad..."

Gently rubbing my fingertips, the calluses on my cheeks, I can only grit my teeth, thinking that no matter what, I can't show a sad expression... In the end, did he find out in the end?I also know that the little guest has always been very sensitive, especially for me.

I can't stay here, I have to go back, otherwise I won't be able to get home until midnight, I said, "It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and suddenly I miss you, I'm a little thirsty, can you buy me a bottle of water?"

He asked me to wait here, and then quickly went to the convenience store, and I didn't turn around until his figure disappeared into the corner.

"Ah... there's really no way, you guys can't do this all the time."

Did you hide in a corner?cheated...

His voice reached my ears far away, "Qianhua, come to Wanshiwu and make me red bean rice. Yinsang likes your red bean rice the most, and you will never get tired of eating it."

Something came out of my eye sockets, this is the most beautiful sentence I have ever heard in my life, it was so beautiful that I couldn't stop crying, I wanted to turn around, just like this, no matter what, no matter what, I hugged him, Embracing the sun that belongs to me, however, at the next moment, I felt an uncontrollable sadness...

26.

I have always, always wanted to see you, in fact, I am really happy, and I can still think about the past about us. In the scorching summer, we talked about which small shop has delicious meatballs, and in the cold winter, you helped me put on my coat Scarves, those warm days, I will remember them all my life, and likewise, I will give up those that should not belong to me.

Spring is over, I will keep moving forward with the dreams of those years, and I believe you will too.

"The red bean rice I made is actually not delicious, maybe there are better ones."

Saying this, the voice sounded so calm, without a trace of emotional trembling, I didn't even know how I did it, I just gritted my teeth, didn't spit out any whimpers, and didn't look back even though tears were streaming down my face, that's good, obviously I think... that's good, but I can't stop being sad.

He didn't speak anymore, and the silence behind him was unbelievable. I walked forward step by step, and time flowed slowly from the top of my head, as if with malice
