永别与怀念 周久莹
Reading Liao Bing's email, the only thought in my mind is This Can Not Be True! She is so young, so healthy and full of enengy, how can this happen to her?
An April a few years ago, my whole family vacationed in eastern Arizona. We stayed one night at her house near Phoenix on our way there. I remember vividly we are in her kitchen, talking while she is preparing dinner. We were joking about how warm the water in her swimming pool can get during summer time (30 degrees Celcius), and all the door locks that must be in place by law to prevent kids accidentally sneak into the backyard and fall into the pool. We are talking about the tap water is so hard that she always used bottled water for cooking. I remember her house clean and well organized. All these details are now vividly floating in front of my eyes, but how can I not be able to meet her or talk to her anymore?!! This is too cruel!!! |
