《那些年，我們一起追的女孩》
著 九把刀
第二章，最後一段
Animal was my best friend back then, and his family had a lot of money. He’d always have a new copy of the Youth Express each week which he’d let me look at. We’d read about Super Saiyans and Frieza and whatever new things were happening in the Blast Limit Saga. I knew that stuff cold, just as well as he did. Where my confidence came from, however, always remained a mystery.
He lived in a small town in Lugang. After class we’d read comics together while we waited for the bus.
“You’ve been talking to Jiayi a lot recently,” Animal said, sitting under a tree, looking up at the sky.
“Yup,” I said as I kept on reading his magazine.
“You don’t think that’s a little weird? I mean, what do you even talk about?” he said, still looking up at the sky.
He was always staring up at the clouds. It eventually got me thinking something’s just not right with people who do that.
“You know, whatever,” I said, making a face before getting back to the magazine.
“I mean, she’s got really good grades. What could she possibly want to talk to you about?”
You’d think his neck would get sore eventually.
“Animal,” I said, picking my nose without putting down the magazine.
“Goin’ fishin?” he said, still entranced by the clouds.
“You know, I’m not just some ordinary guy,” I said, admiring the snot on my finger.
“Really?”
“Yeah, really. Sometimes I even scare myself with how incredible I am,” I said, placing the booger on his blue backpack.
