悉尼晚安 Good night Sydney----隐去的冬天

作者:  录入:03-18

总是在路上。
总是在路上彷徨着,忘记了自己从哪里来,要到哪里去。而现在的田甄,就现实得多了。也曾经有过梦,也曾经有过疼痛。但那阻止不了自己一步步成熟起来。生活带来的是□还是被□无关紧要,重要的是无可奈何地躺下去,还要毅然决然地站起来。
看着面前像模像样的白兔饺子,田甄听见背后有人痛苦的用英语小声抗议:“酱油好咸,连面粉都没有味道了——这是什么?果醋吗?”
这句话面前的殷跃也听见了,正在忍着笑耸肩膀。
“不行我受不了了,我们就不能用番茄酱吃一回饺子吗?”那声音充满了愤懑,然后是叉子碰上盘子的声音。这个老外对饺子蘸酱油这种吃饭深恶痛绝,坚决要将番茄酱进行到底。
“那没办法了,要别的吗?芥末?”
那是一句低沉沙哑的话,带这几分淡然,田甄甚至可以从这话里听出几分宠溺和无可奈何。
田甄愣住了。
猛然转身过去的同时,眼睛像饺子里冒出的蒸汽一样迅速湿润了一层,尽管不敢相信,可现实,或者童话,总会有这样或那样的巧合。
这是悉尼的白天,脱去了一切繁华和奢靡,又回到人间的白天。无论在哪里,无论在何时,总是不断碰见陌生人,遭遇不可预测的一切。
可是,是巧合吗?白天与黑夜,已经渐渐不再像地狱与天堂般界限分明了。因为,尽管日夜轮换,我们,连同我们赤诚的心,从未改变。
隔壁的一桌人向侍从要番茄酱吃饺子的时候,田甄惊奇的发现,坐在对面的对面的那个人有着绿色的眼睛,金棕色的头发,很深的笑纹。好像悉尼的夜空般,绽放着光芒。
那天夜里,抱着恋人带着体温的身躯却久久不能入睡的田甄,三更半夜把殷跃摇醒了。殷跃好脾气地迷糊着眯眯的眼睛,一边摸田甄的头一边拍田甄的背,让他往自己怀里缩——
这是四年养成的一个习惯了。
时间是个可怕的东西,你明明觉得身在其中,可以掌握它,但它却一点一点在你手缝里流走。而那些溜走了的,又潜移默化地改变着你,等你下意识想要回头时,一路走来的脚印已经被抹平了。你根本不知道自己走过怎样的路,面对不可知的未来,不可知的过去,除了和时间一道做一次漫长又短暂的旅行,没有别的办法能让自己躁动的心安静下来。
田甄张开口,却什么都说不出来。
他说不出来是因为,他早就忘记了四年前的那片爱情海,他的记忆已经被四年来的生活填满了。他还是会做这样或那样的梦,尽管他知道,这些梦,说来说去,不过是星星的尘埃,stardust,不过是梦。
四年前。
那个全国唯一的海岸和礁石并存的城市,那个不是为了分手而相遇的恋人。
殷跃站在海边,踢着小石头,头发长了,人显得有些瘦削。田甄约他出来的时候,他还是十分犹豫,像一般旧情人的反应一样,不温不火的,像灶上的牛肉土豆汤。
“我在电话里说过的,如果你不来,我们互不相欠。如果你来了,就不可能走。”说完这句话时,那个吊儿郎当的影子终于定住了。
“这段时间我总是在问自己,为什么是你,为什么偏偏是你,为什么只有你。看来我的语文功底退化了,我连一个问题都答不出来。但是我现在只有你了,我把机票退了,换火车就跑来了,我现在身上只够买硬座火车票回家的钱。你要我,我就把钱去换泡面;你不要我,我就离开。”田甄说到这里说不下去了。他其实还有很多话,可是鱼刺卡在喉咙里,他觉得窒息。
他失声了。
他手里拿的最后那几张红票子,揉成一团,像咸菜。
二十年来他一直在等待、在徘徊,而今他终于等到疲惫难耐,weary,tired,sleepy。他想醒过来了,他知道这个世界不再童话了。不,或许从很久以前开始,他的潜意识里都从没把这个混沌的世界神化过,但是他却如此自欺欺人地要生活在自己的国度里。
然后,那个人放弃了踢开最后那块石头,转过来,停在他身边。
骨节分明的手指伸过来,一点一点扳开他的手。捻起咸菜晃了一下,是那种久违了的顽皮的笑容。是田甄很久以前,不知不觉被他吸引的时候,常常因此而脸红的笑容。
“要什么味儿的泡面?出了回国,不会要茄酱面吧?”
那个买了几箱泡脚牛肉味儿康师傅的家伙就睡在自己旁边。和父母谈判的那段漫长岁月,他们真的是靠这些东西熬过来的。然后是大学里的创业潮,然后是现实与理想的进一步冲突、碰撞、粉碎,然后是吵架、分手、在一起。
这些然后的然后,就是现在的田甄和殷跃。
殷跃这两天被田甄拉这拉那到处逛,没被折腾死算万幸了。大概是睡迷糊了,哼哼了两声,叹息般幸福地说:Good night~
只这一句话,好像尘埃落定般,终于安抚了田甄骚动的心。
田甄眨了眨眼睛,微笑了一下。他翻了个身,正对着一窗的辉煌夜景,他不知道那个外国人过着怎样的生活,或许正是在酒吧里爽朗地笑着,或许手旁还有gin fizz这种哄人的饮料,或许还在谈论那盘芥末番茄酱饺子。Maybe in a flash, he stopped all these moves and began to think about a boy who he met years ago. As time went by, people changed, and the view that we thought about the vivid world also changed.
It is not a tranquil rural with shining stars. People up today always tell themselves that there are not dreams without consideration; there is not deep feeling between two guys who just met a minute ago. Ironically, despite of the judgment, they keep on to pursue something like that. Why? How? When? What?
As words from the novel says, what they should do, is to live a merry and joyful life, it’s simple. And there are thousands of things which are simple enough for us to do. But we never had made it.
Life needs some pitiful things, life is adorable when you are growing up.
T blinked his eyes again, and this time, some words came from his lips. With heartfelt gratitude, he said to the flourish city.
Good night Sydney.
Night night

The end

something about the story

when it first came into my mind, it's hard to expainded why i want to write this kind of novel which is not my cup of tea. i didn't really go abroad to live for a semester or two, and what i always wanted to do is to write something, for instance, the history story.
but as you see, i only finished the part with more "up today" matters. i wrote this for joy, and i don't have to care about whether the vocabulary beautiful or deep-meaning or not, maybe that's why i like to have chat and the enjoyment of writing throught the internet.
i came to campus in 2008 as a fresh, i was disapported about the education teaching and the institution in college. life is harder than my imagine and people worked for money or gpa intead of interests. i might become that kind of person sooner or later, and that's horrible.
T have a dream in his mind, his mental world. but i don't have my own stardust.
i'm afraid i will lose my mind in this society but i can't escape it.
so maybe it's time to think about my future, and that's why i have to stop writing these, as my mum says, stupid bosh and nonsense.
okay, see u.
