She ate a fig. And juices were everywhere. She felt its fat fruit stuffing in her stomach and throats exuding honey like paste digested in the acid and bacteria. They were like cakes. The sun was baking her. Her skin felt inflamed. Italy was beautiful. However her works had paused momentarily like a thirsty horse. She was working on a language mission writing dissertation on how linguistic distinctions in Italy affect local economy. She was trying to solve a mystery. It went nowhere. The girl had died. Brutally. Torn. Like a butterfly floating on the sea. She printed loads of pictures. They were all grotesque murders. Etc.
香港的夏季像一块滑雨布,充满了温顺的爱意。 所有雨点打在上面,就好似一场轻喜剧落了幕又要散场。简梨坐在轻铁里流眼泪吃面包,她的嘴里塞满了菠萝包甜蜜的干净的馅料。她转过头看见一个金发男孩对她微笑。她恐惧地抓紧自己的棕色的手提包,她是个银行的文员,整日被经理的各种嘲讽毒打,称呼自己是行长的小蜜,所以她总是带着个公文包,里面装了无数经理的行为记录,打印成成叠的文档。她后背留了一身冷汗,她想到中国大陆上海新买的房子,不由一阵后悔。她思来想去马上从地铁冲了下去,要给房产经理打手机把中奖买的房产卖掉。她考虑了良久,决定辞职回家靠写作维生。她从皮包里拿出一板药,是生物制药厂出产的控制体内热毒的胶囊。她吃了两粒。顿时觉得好多了。等等。
it was honesty that got her published. She was harassed and assaulted. People looked at her in a way she never imagined possible. She was not ashamed. She thought about how these people chose a life of indifference instead of passions. She was filled with disgusts. It turned out the most beautiful girl in the world was a person who was filled with honesty. Her piety made her such a star. She often cried when she thought about the assaults. It made her face look rather dark, like universe and its endless time holes. You could fall into these holes. Then you were transported right into a different dimension, space and time. It’s quite plastic to be honest. It’s this type of melancholy originated from time travels made her nostalgic for a life outside of this galaxy. Etc.
Everything is fake. She was disappointed. A lot of people gazed at her through their back view glasses. They found her beautiful with thick eyebrows and pouty lips. She put large doses of lip gloss on her mouth to feel that stinging coolness. It made her feel quite happy. She was thinking about plastic surgery again. This time she thought about the Korean surgery or the Chinese one using little fishes to eat away the fibres hard and caky on her face and feet. Etc.
She was in a backyard kicking shuttlecock. Some children ran in and poured water from buckets in the yards. She was shocked. An airplane flew low over the aerospace. She watched it with apprehension. It turned out her immigration documents had been sorted out. She was moving home to the United States. Etc.
She drank homemade planter punch and ate cucumber sandwiches. It made her think, think of all the poor children in China. They were shot on the television. She found it funny that people don’t dare to pronounce their names. Etc.
This was absurd. She thought of suicide. But it was not feasible. Etc.
She was all sweaty. She threw up. A seed was slurping out of her mouth on her tongue. When the wind touched it it grew feet, legs, arms and head. It became a boy about 2 or 3 years old with dark blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes and wild face. He crawled and looked up to her. Her face looking like a sunflower or an orbiting sun radiating beauty and light. She looked at him and was fond of him. She bent down to pick him up believing he was at most a few months old. He grabbed a lock of her hair and giggled. Etc.
