Chapter 31 Extra [Charlie and Al]
Chapter 31 Extra [Charlie and Al]
Al brings the freshest white sturgeon, salmon, and herring to Charlie every day. All the fish in the sea are cheap and easy-to-get food that he can catch on the table with his ten fingers. And Charlie silently indulged all this.
He opened his mouth, like a baby bird, like a young fish, and without a word, he took the food and kisses and intercourse///coupling that Al gave.He stopped resisting and running away, and began to learn how to find the living creatures trapped in Al's seaweed-like long hair. He soaked his feet in the cold sea water at night, and stroked Al's smooth and white forehead blankly.
They talked occasionally, Al thought, human beings are really strange creatures, it must be possible not to talk to them, fish don't talk, but Al is willing to talk to Charlie.
The topics that Charlie often talked to him recently were tears and love. Al felt very boring. He thought it was interesting to have no shells and the huge tiger whale that he killed last night, but Charlie kept talking to him.
Charlie looked at him: "Al, do you know what love is?"
Al wagged his tail and shook his head honestly: "I don't know." In fact, he didn't really want to know, he was tired of hearing it, and he didn't think it was any fun.
But Charlie is still saying: "You kill those fish every day for me to eat, I don't think you will be sad if you kill them, but if you kill the people you love, you will be sad."
Al retorted: "I'm never sad."
Charlie was silent for a while: "Yes, you won't be sad, love is what makes you sad, in my eyes before, you were like these fish, you were dismembered into pieces and brought to my dining table, I didn't even frown Wrinkle, but after I fell in love with you, I have empathy for you, I think you will suffer, you change from food to something else, from a piece of cod fried in butter to a person who can make Mermaid that I shed tears."
Charlie said: "Before I fell in love with you, I was obsessed with everything about you, your appearance, mysterious, powerful, even cruel and indifferent, your eyes, your fish tail, your body is all I love you The reason, you attracted me, but after I fell in love with you, all of these are not important, even if you are just a bubble, I will love you."
Al seemed amused by the metaphor, his face lying in Charlie's palm, looking up innocently into his profile: "Foam? How would you love a foam?"
Charlie pointed to the foam on the sea and told Al, "You pop him."
Al pierced the foam with his sharp nails, and Charlie continued, "Then you tell me the name of that foam was Al."
Al finally found it interesting, he smiled and said cheerfully: "Charlie, the name of that bubble just now is Al!"
Charlie watched Al calmly, and then slowly, slowly shed tears.
Charlie said, "That's love, Al."
