Chapter 18 Auto Repair Shih Tzu
Later, the oil leakage problem of the car was solved. Previously, the car had some minor problems. Valentin said that it was because of the aging of the parts. After some maintenance, it was much smoother to drive, but I started to run to Valentin every few days. Racking his brains to think about some car problems, the purpose of course is to see him more often.When I leave, I usually leave some small things for him, such as chocolates, a few packs of cigarettes, etc. It’s too embarrassing for him to face such small things, and I usually slip away as soon as I put them on his desk; occasionally I also leave some things on purpose , I just want him to see it and call me to pick it up.Although the method is a little old-fashioned, it is very effective. With this trick, I can meet with him almost every two or two days.The more times I come here, the more I am familiar with his work and rest. He loves to drink, so he often misses things. After several failed squats, I found that he never went to work on time, and the latest time was at two o'clock in the afternoon. Come on, after working for two hours, I went to drink again after work.
The old man in the car repair shop seemed to be used to it, but he seemed to be uncomfortable with it. When Valentin didn't come, he didn't rush, and he stayed in the shop with his wife, and when there were customers, he came out to see; Otherwise, they will inevitably have a big fight with him, the quarrel will turn red and neck thick, and occasionally they will throw something, usually his wife will come out to persuade the fight.When Valentin had a serious quarrel with the old man, he must have had a bad face. I didn't figure it out before, so I got a lot of noses, and I shrank my neck from the yelling.But even so, I was still reluctant to leave, and I always wanted to kill some time and stay with him for a while.
Until one day I came to him again to buy some messy tools and was about to drive away when he came down and knocked on my car window.After shaking it open, I saw him holding the gift box of chocolates that I secretly left behind in his hand, and I immediately felt embarrassed. He was lying on the window sill, with his wrists hanging down, and one corner of his mouth was curled up, still smiling like a half-smile: "Don't Keep these things."
I thought he didn't like it, and was in a hurry to speak, he nodded his shoulder with his thumb back, and looked along the way, it was his boss resting on the chair with his belly up.He said: "All those beautiful candies of yours went into his stomach." He reached out and put the gift box on the co-pilot and patted it.
In desperation, I grabbed his hand and asked loudly and excitedly, "——then what do you like?"
Valentin glanced at me, and I tried to catch any slight change in his face, but found nothing.
"There's nothing wrong with your car, so you don't have to come every other day."
As soon as he struggled slightly, I let go of my hand immediately, and watched him turn around and step up the steps step by step, with his back to me and raised his arm, as a farewell.
This remark made me hold back for a week. During this week, I sent him three text messages and made two phone calls, but I didn’t get a reply without exception. I started to suffer from insomnia, and I think he may have noticed it. My mind was making a subtle rejection with me; and Andre's words, "A man like my elder brother must like women" is always ringing in my mind.After class every day, I stopped trying to think about the reason for going to his place today. I just went straight home and spent a lot of time. I don’t know how I spent my time before that.
Lying at home, I can only swipe my phone. As soon as the home page is refreshed, new snapshots of Andre and others appear. Then I remembered that I have been busy with Valentin during this period, and it has been a long time since I went out to drink with a group of teenagers. Have fun.A quick shot showed Andre's big face, and as expected, he was drinking and shaking his head on the roof, surrounded by darkness and illuminated by flashlights.I laughed in my heart, I missed them a lot. I was about to type to ask them to play together, but I pressed the screen suddenly, and played it again from the beginning. Andre’s face—beer—the crowd, I took a screenshot to enlarge it, and he was tall , with a hat pressing down on her curly hair, smiling with a cigarette in her mouth, who else could it be?
Seeing Valentin unprepared, I was shocked, my phone snapped on the bed, and I didn't want to make an appointment anymore, I think they were happy to have fun without me, not to mention that some people didn't want to see me, it's okay Shy what to do with that face.It was so uncomfortable all night, and I couldn’t help but click on it again in the morning, which made me lose my mind all day. After class in the afternoon, I couldn’t stand it anymore. I kept scolding myself for being awkward and not like a man. So he made a decisive decision to take care of his mother and went to see him.
When passing the traffic lights, I saw roses from the florist next to their car repair shop. This season, most of them are grown in greenhouses, the price is not cheap, and they can't be kept for a few days.But that day was gray, the branches were covered with snow, and the only place I could see was red, I suddenly felt an emotion, this emotion can be called resentment, revenge, or emotion, in short, it tended to leave me She went in, and 10 minutes later, she hugged her arms full of roses and stood proudly in front of Valentin.
"Preveet!" I said loudly.
Valentin stood on the steps, saw me raise my eyebrows like this, and nodded in response while holding a cigarette in my mouth; Tatiana, the wife of the boss Mikhail saw it, and ran out with a huff: "I'm sorry!" Here comes Wan—oh, where is this going? So many flowers, which girl is so lucky? Mikhail—”
Tatiana was already very familiar with me because she always went to their car repair shop. At this time, she kept making fun of me and asked if she was a classmate at school. I smiled and said yes, she was older than me, and she was older It was a burst of laughter, and pulled Mikhail: "Look at this flower, it blooms so well in winter, I don't know how expensive it is--Valentin also looked at it, do you like flowers? Haha, Of course not, you are the same as Mikhail, you think that men like flowers and lose face! What is this, Ivan knows, receiving roses in Russia in winter is better than having too many jewelry necklaces... This is a Bulgarian rose ?”
After a while some customers came, and Tatyana and Mikhail returned to the store, so Valentin and I were left alone standing in the snow; Covered with a layer of blue, Valentin finished smoking, threw it into the snow and stamped his feet a few times, without saying a word, buried his head and let out a sudden laugh.
"What's your attitude?" he said, "What's wrong with your car?"
I took a step forward and was almost close to him, but he didn't hide, just looked down at me like that; but I've never been so close to him before, I smelled a smell of tobacco and a faint smell of alcohol, it must be I secretly drank a few cups; I saw the moles on his neck, from the neck to the cheeks, small and scattered, spread on his skin, very tempting to kiss, I don’t know where I heard, most of the moles on the neck are It's a beauty, it's true, he is indeed an auto repair beauty.
He took a deep breath, his breath sprayed on my face, it was all warm and moist; suddenly I couldn't say anything, my face was flushed, and I put the big bunch of roses into his arms Said, turned and ran.
After that, I didn’t dare to see Valentin again for several days. I even declined Andre’s invitation to play with me, for fear of meeting him, and indeed he was in the group photo that Andre put up that time.The strange thing is that Andre actually tagged him, indicating that this person still has a social account.I followed the clues and clicked in. There were not many photos, only a few, but the latest one was a day ago. Rejoice - he brought home my roses!
This discovery was so inspiring that I went to the garage that same day, and even more boldly said that there was something wrong with the car, and asked Valentin to show it to me.Valentin probably figured out later that I was not serious about repairing cars, so he didn’t care about Mikhail cheating on me openly or secretly. Sometimes Mikhail bragged to me, and he himself would stand aside and laugh, laughing from time to time: "Even if you cheat on Ivan, no matter how broken his car is, he won't be able to replace it."
And I can only happily say: "Yes, yes, I only repair it, not replace it!"
I thought that if the days passed slowly like this, as long as I ran more frequently, Valentin and I would be closer, until one day I didn’t see him, Mikhail told me that Valentin took a day off, and There was still no sign of him on the second day, and it was still the same on the third and fourth days.After repeated questioning, Tatyana told me that Valentin would never work here again.
