要不是我在吃苹果我现在肯定没在吃苹果 要不是我没钱我现在肯定有钱了 要不是我没在做梦我现在肯定在做梦 I would be definitely not eating an apple if I wasn’t eating one now I would be definitely rich if I wasn’t rich now I would be definitely dreaming if I wasn’t dreaming now (2018)

247. Sweet milk｜甜牛奶
睡前 打算喝一碗甜牛奶 在热牛奶之前 先吃一粒乳糖酶 以防肠胃不适 在热牛奶的时候 收拾一下餐桌 擦掉上面的污渍 牛奶热好之后 把它端到桌子上 顺手打开一罐甜麦片 倒一些在牛奶里 随后就可以支起膝盖 赤脚踩在椅子边边 等待牛奶变甜 这个过程不会花很久 等到牛奶 从滚烫变成烫口的时候 差不多就能开喝了 第一口只是微微的甜 第二口的甜比微微多一些 随着麦片里的糖分 不断溶解 每一口牛奶 都会比上一口更甜一些 并且剩下的牛奶 还会变得越来越甜 越来越甜 一口一口喝完这碗牛奶 最后一口 正好是最甜的 Before sleep, I want to have a bowl of sweet milk. Before heating the milk, take a lactase pill in case of stomach distress. While the milk is on the stove, clean up the table, wipe off the stains. When the milk is done, put it on the table top, open up a can of sweet cereal, pour some into the milk. Then I can just bend up my knees, feet on the edge of the chair, bared, waiting for the milk to sweeten. It won't take long. When the milk turns from boiling hot to piping hot, it's almost ready to drink. The first sip is just slightly sweet. The second sip, its sweetness being just a little more than slightly. With the sugar in the cereal keep dissolving, every sip, is sweeter than the previous one. Moreover, the rest of the milk is becoming sweeter and sweeter. Sip by sip I drink up this bowl of milk. The last sip, happens to be the sweetest. (2018)
238. Little Sparrow Fellow｜麻雀小朋友
早上醒来 听到细而缓慢的 啾，啾的声音 从窗口传来 窗口挂了两层窗帘（一层是隔光的） 因此房间里仍然昏暗 仿佛这一天还没有正式开始 我躺在床上，心想 我能听到你 但你不知道我在听 这一天仿佛随时会开始 你会飞走 我也将马上起床 但现在你还不必飞走 我也不必马上起床 房间里仍然昏暗 我在昏暗的房间里面 你在昏暗的房间外面 你我暂时在此稍作停留 等到这一天正式开始的时候 你就会飞走 而我也会马上起床 Waking up this morning heard the thin and slow sound tweet, tweet coming from the window The window has double curtains (one of which is light-proof) so the room was still dim as if the day has not formally started yet I lied in the bed, thinking I can hear you but you don't know I'm hearing This day seems to be starting at anytime you'd fly off and I'd soon get up But you don't have to fly off at once and I don't have to get up at once The room was still dim as if the day has not formally started yet you and I stay in this place, for now, temporarily And as the day formally starts you'd fly off and I'd soon get up (2017)
