—I think you don’t play the piano
— when you were young
— you don’t play the piano now, right?
——No, my husband doesn’t understand music at all
— that’s good...
——I may have a very professional talent and passion.
——Ah, God, no.
——Why are you so sure?
——You are too sensible and not complicated——
……I think it is a good thing that people are not complicated, but it sounds boring.
——You will never be boring
... ——How
about you?
--What's wrong with me?
——Will you come here every Thursday?
——Yes, I buy things for a week, go to the library to exchange books, have lunch, and then usually go to the movies. It's not too exciting, but it's a change.
——Are you going to the movies this afternoon?
- Yes
- too clever, I was
- I thought you had all day in the hospital.
——Well, don’t tell anyone that two of my patients died this morning. The head nurse was very angry with me, so I dared not go back.
——Why are you so stupid
——Seriously, I did finish my job. It doesn't matter if you are absent from work. Do you mind if I go with you?
——Okay, I...
——I can sit downstairs, you can sit upstairs...
——Upstairs is too expensive...
(The band suddenly stopped and we started laughing again, I have no premonition , Maybe I should have it. Everything looks so natural, so innocent.)
