Ex-boyfriends are gods

On a wet and cold morning, under a canopy that slightly sheltered the cold, a young man who looked about 1.7 meters three and four stood with his neck slightly shrunk.

He has a flaxen head of hair that is slightly curly at the bottom, deep and erect facial features, and gentle lake blue eyes, all of which indicate that this young man has a good appearance.

This is Al Clive. At this moment, he is holding a black suitcase in one hand, while the other hand is tightly wrapping some black woolen coats on his body.

It just snowed last night, and it's wet and cold right now.Even though it has been 23 years since he came to this place inexplicably, Al is still not very used to the weather and food here.

The surrounding rickshaw drivers and carriage drivers probably saw Al's embarrassment, so they stepped forward to ask him if he needed a car.

"No, gentlemen, thank you." Alha had no choice but to refuse.

The rickshaw drivers in twos and threes retreated disappointedly. It was still early in the morning, and they all wanted to make a business early.

Al looked around, and there were quite a few coachmen nearby who didn't give up, and probably wanted to persuade him.

Sighing, Al retracted the hand carrying the suitcase into the sleeve of his coat, and could only leave the temporary shelter.

The snow on the soles of the feet made a crackling sound, and soon Al noticed that snow water had seeped into the shoes and socks.The cold and sticky feeling made him feel a little uncomfortable.

jingle.

A crisp and pleasant sound attracted Al, well, mainly because Al could smell the milky and wheat aroma of toasted bread.After walking a few steps along the scent, he saw a small bakery.

The store is not big, but it is very clean.

The freshly baked bread was neatly and beautifully placed in the glass cabinet, which made Al's stomach growl.

Al was very tired from the cold and hunger.

"Sir, maybe you can come in and sit down." Some fat bosses saw this young man standing at the door, his complexion pale because of the cold.

However, this young man's whole body looks very clean, and the texture of the clothes and the box can also be seen, they are not cheap.Except maybe today, his life is pretty good.

This may be a young man who just happened to encounter bad luck today.

He is willing to give such a young man a little help, because he is not one of those homeless people, he will not dirty his shop, and he can satisfy his kindness.

The hunger in his stomach made Al compromise.

"Okay, thank you."

jingle.

The boss opened the door of the bakery, and the welcome bell at the door made a pleasant sound.

The bakery was very warm, and the smell of wheat was far stronger than that outside, which made Al feel relieved.

"You can take a seat and maybe consider our bread too, they're cheap."

Al found a place in the farthest corner, and put the suitcase at his feet.He touched his pocket, and took out a few coins with some dejection.After counting, there is still 1 shilling and 20 pence left, which is all of Al's current wealth.

The embarrassment of wealth is the reason why Al was unwilling to take a rickshaw just now.

Putting the shilling and penny back into the pocket of the woolen coat, Al held a penny in his hand, got up and went to the boss to buy a piece of bread.

"Maybe you also need a cup of hot coffee, it's free."

"Thank you, you're such a nice guy."

The boss smiled with satisfaction.

Back in his seat, Al took a bite of the toast, which was delicious.It's just that the taste of hot coffee is bad, but when you are hungry and cold, everything is acceptable.

After eating the bread and coffee, Al's pale face regained some color, and he became more energetic.

Because the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is too great, the glass windows are covered with a layer of fog.

Al leaned on the chair and looked out of the hazy window, looking a little melancholy.Thinking of breaking up with her boyfriend Norton, Al was still a little confused.

Norton is an excellent dentist, and Al was a painting student when he met each other.Norton has a good appearance, and of course his humorous personality.

After the relationship, Norton showed his maturity and consideration as a gentleman with the same appearance and temperament as himself.Of course, he is still a person who knows how to enjoy life.

When Al graduated, he was confused because of his father.

His father broke up with him when he applied for the painting department. After two or three years of no contact, he found him again and hoped that he would inherit the detective agency at home.

Al is fed up, he has no interest in criminal investigation.

But if he does not accept the job his father gave him, he will lose all sources of livelihood.

Without being famous, it is difficult to rely on painting to earn housing rental fees, clothing and food purchases.Most of these artists either change careers.Either live on the street, or rent in the chaotic 'art district'.Well, it's also called the Ghetto.

Norton was a thoughtful lover who fully supported Al's dreams and firmly believed that he would make a great painter.

They have always been very happy together, like a pair of gay people who will never get tired of each other.

But just six days ago, on their anniversary in their third year together, Norton broke up.

There is no reason.

Al accidentally knocked over the red wine, packed his belongings that night, and left Norton's house.

Alder admitted that for three years, Norton paid for almost all of the family's expenses.But Al just felt that the dream of painting was not realized in his previous life, and he wanted to work hard in this life.

He also knew that it would not be good for the other half to bear this kind of total cost, so on the anniversary, Al originally wanted to tell Norton about the decision he had made.

He is very grateful to Norton for his three years, but he can't go on like this forever, so he already plans to find a clerical job.Of course, he will not let go of painting, and he can paint in his spare time.

Between sympathy for his lover and his dream, Al wants to strike a balance, and at the same time gradually tilts the balance toward his lover.

But all of this ended immediately when the other party proposed to break up.

After Al left Norton, he really fell into a greater confusion than three years ago.He didn't like the criminal investigation route originally planned for him by his somewhat crazy father, but he also seemed to lack a bit of talent for painting dreams.

He has been wandering the streets and cheap hotels of the fog city for six days, and the two pounds of wealth he brought out are now stretched.

Now Al understands that he may need to apologize to his father, after all, it is not safe for him to wander outside alone.

Sighing, Al looked up at the top of his head.

A six-sided dice is spinning on it, and each side is just like a normal dice, with red dots showing the corresponding number.

What it is used for Al does not know, Al only knows that when he was about five years old, he gradually began to remember that he was not a pure baby, with memories of his previous life.During a nap time, it suddenly appeared.

From the very first moment he saw it, Al knew it was called 'Criminal Heart'.But other than that, he doesn't know of any use for it.

No one else could see it except himself.

Al asked a lot of people, and they all said he was normal.Al also went to a large number of psychiatrists, thinking it was his hallucination.But the doctors said he was normal, quite normal.

Well, later on, the dice would just spin quietly above his head, without any impact on his life, so Al didn't bother to pay attention to it, and just pretended he couldn't see it.

but……

Al thought of what had happened to him growing up so far, and he shook his head, unwilling to think about it.

He really has to go home, even if he needs to apologize... Al once again gave himself an affirmation.

Tuk Tuk...

Al heard the sound of something hitting the wall or the table a few times.

Out of vigilance, Al closed his eyes and opened his eyes immediately, and at the same time immediately looked at the suitcase at his feet.It's still there, without any signs of being touched.

The bakery now has more customers, and the welcoming bells at the door keep ringing.The boss greeted the guests and was busy walking around the small bakery.

Al felt much better, although the clammy shoes and socks still made his feet uncomfortable.

Lifting the suitcase, Al left the seat.

"Sir, thank you for allowing me to rest in your shop, I feel much better now."

"Oh, you're leaving, aren't you?" The boss took the time to look at Al, and the recovered young man looked even better than before.

"By the way, this is for you. Take it with you and eat it on the way." The busy boss returned to the cashier, and he took out a kraft paper that was tied tightly in his pocket.

"Do not."

The boss stuffed it into Al's arms.

Well, Al could only bow slightly to the boss in gratitude, and left the bakery with the wrapped toast.

Not long after he went out, Al waved his hand to find a carriage and asked the other party to give him a ride.Now that you have decided to go home and apologize, you don't have to be stingy with the remaining money.

Al got into the car, and he began to worry about his crazy father, who was forced to leave the security department because of a series of crimes such as illegal use of guns, burglary, and wounding, and finally opened a detective agency by himself, can he forgive him? him.

After walking more than half of the distance, Al opened the baked bread given to him by the boss.

But after reading it, Al realized something was wrong.There are only two pieces of bread, and a blue cloth bag is pressed under the bread.After opening it, Al found that there were some pounds, shillings and pence inside.

Al immediately understood that this should be the boss's turnover.Maybe he was going to take it home after he was going to close his business.But unexpectedly, in the midst of busy work today, I took the wrong kraft paper package.

"Sir, we have to turn back." Al shook his head and stopped the driver.

After Al promised that he would not lose the fare, the driver didn't care about the customer's back and forth.
