Chapter 04
BGM: At Dusk - RADWIMPS
In the rainy season in the southwest, the rainwater clings to the glass and draws meandering water marks. The wet fresh green spreads the view of the entire window lattice. There is a green fragrance of grass and trees mixed with hot tides spreading into the house. A tall man walks over to sew the window shut Strictly, turn around and press the remote control of the air conditioner.
"22 degrees shouldn't be hot, right?" Gong Jun said to Ah Han who was lying on the sofa.
"Ask me?" Ah Han pointed to himself, and he said that I couldn't feel it.
Gong Jun froze for a moment before smiling, he said he forgot.
"Hey." Ahan stretched out his hand and pulled Gong Jun to make him sit down quickly so that he wouldn't block the projection screen, muttering about why you are so stupid.
Gong Jun never refute, just sat down beside him with a smile.
On rainy days, he nestled on the sofa with him and watched movies.
When Gong Jun slid his finger on the screen during the film selection, A Han stood beside him and raised his chin, saying that he should watch this one.
It was "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," which belonged to the theme of love that was of little interest to either of them.
Gong Jun looked up at Ah Han in surprise, and asked, why did you choose this one?
"I don't know, just choose it at random." Ah Han smiled, and he said it might be because the name is very special.
It is a good script and a good movie. The concept of the opening is ingenious. The life of the hero Benjamin Button is like a clock in the opposite direction. He is born as an old man and ends as a baby.
A Hanxu leaned on Gong Jun's shoulder, he always had a lot to talk to Gong Jun, even after watching a movie, he talked non-stop, appreciating this scene and discussing the plot at the same time.
Gong Jun answered his words slowly, but the answers were fluent.
"Why are you so clear? Have you seen this movie?" Ah Han was a little surprised.
"No." Gong Jun said, "This movie is very famous, probably everyone has heard of the plot."
"If you've seen it before, just tell me. You don't need to watch it, just watch it with me." Ahan scratched his head, he said, but I always feel like I've seen this movie.
"When I was an actor, I must have watched a lot of movies." Gong Jun laughed, saying that you are a goldfish, you can remember movies but you can't remember yourself.
"You count to seven seconds." Ah Han suddenly turned his face to look at Gong Jun, and said seriously, "Quickly count."
Gong Jun didn't know why, so he obediently counted the seconds to "7".
"I am Ah Han, and you are Gong Jun." Ah Han shrugged, with a little childish complacency, and he said that I am not a goldfish. Seven seconds have passed, and I still remember it.
"It's amazing." Gong Jun just smiled and pinched his cheek vainly.
In the movie, Benjamin gets younger and younger as he lives, but his lover grows old with time.
The ballet-dancing girl flaunting herself eventually became a yellowed old newspaper, holding Benjamin back to her childhood, and coaxing her partner who had forgotten everything to fall asleep.
The blue light from the projection screen shone on the quiet faces of the two.
"I think the heroine's words are quite right." Ahan said softly, his eyes still glued to the screen, "Nothing lasts forever."
"Did you say love?" Gong Jun said, "But they have always been in love."
"The antonym of love is not not loving." Ah Han smiled, he said the antonym of love is forgetting.
The subtitles at the end of the movie slowly scrolled, Ah Han sighed and raised his right hand to show Gong Jun, which happened to block the port of the screen projection, and fine spots of light passed between the man's slender knuckles, like flowing fireflies. fire.
He said, I don’t know if you have noticed, I always like to subconsciously touch the ring finger of my right hand, and I don’t know why I do this, I guess, maybe it’s because of what I was wearing here.
"It should be a ring." Ah Han looked up at his right hand, and scratched twice in the light, "But it's empty now, I don't remember anything."
"Sometimes I think you are pitiful, and you live with all your thoughts, but when you think about it, I don't even have anyone to miss, so I am so pitiful."
"Maybe I have a wife like you, and maybe I have a child like Yaoyao. It's fine for me to leave alone, but what should the person who loves me do?"
"But it will always be let go."
"Five years, ten years, 50 years... Life is so long, there will always be new people who will take my place, and they will always be forgotten. Anyway, no one will remember anyone in the next life."
He put down his hands dejectedly, and lowered his head.
The slightly longer forehead hair covered the eyes, and Ah Han sighed softly.
He said, you see, Benjamin loves Daisy very much.
"You love your wife very much, too."
Ah Han pointed to the two pairs of white canvas shoes placed together on the balcony, with ugly graffiti painted on them, the lining was yellowed, but the face was washed clean by Gong Jun.
There is no trace of a woman in Gong Jun's house, only the two pairs of canvas shoes corresponding to the graffiti are proof that there was another owner in this house.
Ah Han noticed it when he came here for the first time, and he joked that your wife has big feet, I can wear these shoes.
Gong Jun just laughed, he said that if you can wear it, then you can wear it and go.
"But they still have their own ways to go." Ahan said, "I can't keep them."
Gong Jun's family has been urging him to find a partner.
The last time Ah Han heard a call from Gong Jun's mother crying, he only listened to one sentence.
——"You will be 35 soon, how many more years do you have to live for him?"
Gong Jun is too good-looking, and he can still act as a school girl in sportswear. Seeing the bright smile on the man's bright and smiling face, Ah Han always thought that he was only in his twenties at most, and he was almost shocked when he heard that 35 years old.
He also asked about the age of Gong Jun's wife, and Gong Jun answered that she was 33 years old.
Ah Han touched his face, and asked tentatively, "Do I look older or smaller than you?"
Gong Jun replied seriously: "Your younger than me."
Ahan leaned back on the sofa, staring at the ceiling in a daze, the pattering rain outside the window and the piano music at the end of the movie still echoed in this world.
He sighed to persuade Gong Jun, and called "Brother" half-jokingly.
He said, brother, you are almost 35, and it is time to look forward.
"She must also hope that you can find someone to take good care of you. You are so stupid that I am anxious to see you, let alone her."
"You are so exhausted, how can she rest assured?"
Gong Jun looked at Ah Han's profile for a long time.
"Know it."
he said softly.
"Do not worry."
