看三毛的故事,看她躲开小贩期待的眼神,然后因为买不了东西而内疚。善良的人,一不小心就会遭受更多良心上的折磨吧。 认识一个小孩子Lollo,大概十六、七岁,经常在学校边的路口卖玉米。觉得是个特别的人是因为第一次跟他接触时,他咕咕哝哝地自说自话,称来自附近的一个农场,但是已经不在那里工作,因为那边同住的男孩子经常爆粗口,品性也差,他受不了。当时听了,挺有触动。一下子买了他三十个玉米。只是玉米买回去,煮了,大家都不是很喜欢吃,大部分都丢掉了。隔段时间Lollo再出现,如果刚好遇见我们开车出去,总是会热情地招手,我隔着车窗跟他打招呼,但是也很快躲过他的眼神。‘买吗?’买回去没人吃的。徐大说,要是我不想内疚,直接给钱他好了。因为留了电话,便直接简讯他道歉说今天买不了,对不起。Lollo会回话说没关系。呃......
那天去Standard Bank兑换支票的时候遇到一群年轻人。对这个国家或多或少有种戒备心,特别是在银行的时候。正准备避开他们,突然听到一句‘こんにちは’。我愣了愣,发现他们正看着我,脸上有任何恶意。我笑了。‘NO----------’,一扫紧张的情绪,我也回笑着说了句‘你好’! 这几个家伙笑得更大声了,其中一个有点不好意思地道歉。最后还问我日语的再见怎么说。这也算是最近遇到有趣的事情之一吧。而像这种质朴的人,这边也是大把存在的。
有时候也搭载路上拦车的人。一般是本地的建筑工或者附近的妇孺。最近的一次是三母子,瘦骨嶙峋的妈妈抱着正在吃奶的娃娃以及一个三岁左右的女儿。我们停下来的时候,那母亲一直重复着‘Father, please’。我差点听成了,她要去police station找孩子的father。当时开车的是徐大,她其实是在恳求。三个人上了车,徐大打开了窗户。是,这很粗鲁无礼,但是味道确实太大了。车子动身不久,那位妈妈便一直咳嗽。我们又紧张起来。前些天大使馆通报说发现了戊肝,死了几个人,也不知道这位是不是病人。到了目的地,放下她们之后,徐大把四个窗户都开了。然后...车子颠进了路边一个大坑,好不容易开上路,心有余悸。我跟徐大说‘这是做好事心却不诚的报应’。开了很远才想起来应该给她们一点钱...... 而我,是不善的。 插播: What Do You Want From Me Adam Lambert 歌词: Hey, slow it down 嘿,等一下/慢点 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 Yeah, I'm afraid 是,我很害怕 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 There might have been a time 也许曾有一段时间 I would give myself away 我放弃了自己 Ooh once upon a time 曾经 I didn't give a damn 我什么都不在乎 But now here we are 但现在你在我身边 So what do you want from me 所以你想要我怎么做 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 Just don't give up 别放弃 I'm workin' it out 我正努力摆脱困境 Please don't give in 请别屈服, I won't let you down 我不会让你失望的 It messed me up, 我曾经搞砸过 Need a second to breathe, 需要再次呼吸 Just keep coming around 所以继续留在我身边吧 Hey, what do you want from me 嘿!你想要我怎么做 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做 What do you want from me 你想要我怎么做
