Whenever I got up and looked at the sky where the egg white was slightly exposed, Yuta Arai couldn't help but sigh.
Before we knew it, the day passed, and before we knew it, we grew old.
However, when you get old, you'll get old.
As usual, Yuta Arai still got up in the early morning, washed up, cooked and ate alone, and then sorted out some items at home. As the time was about to be over, he left home and drove to pick up his customers.
Leaving home alone and returning home alone is becoming more and more like this. Yuta Arai has long been accustomed to such a life.
Over the age of 70, Yuta Arai has become indifferent to his life. The children who originally needed him to rely on have grown up and formed their own families. He no longer needs him. Although he is a little lonely, he can accept it. After all, he is
His children can come to see him with their grandchildren every once in a while. Although it is short-lived, they are still a happy life.
Although his wife's death was still painful in his heart, he also felt relieved as he grew older.
People are about to die. Even if there are differences, they are just in different orders. One day, they will meet again.
For an elderly man like him, even if he doesn’t have the assistance from his family, the social subsidies are enough for him to spend the rest of his life alone, but staying at home alone is really space and too lonely, in order to make his last life live
To be more fulfilled, Yuta Arai got into the taxi driver business.
To be honest, he likes this kind of thing. Anyway, his body is still tough, and driving a car is not difficult. He travels every day and carries the next generation who is still energetic, and can move his mouth while driving, and
They chatted, even if they just listened to their complaints, Yuta Arai felt very satisfied because he was not lonely by their side.
On this day, Yuta Arai parked the car near his customer, the Zejing family, as usual. The time was right at 7 o'clock.
In addition to the "fishing" taxi method of waiting for customers to come to the door on a fixed street, online taxiing is popular in rentals, such as "Didi Taxi", which is an example in this regard. Through it, drivers can directly reach the customer's location.
The price will be set through the system according to the travel time, saving time and effort.
This type of taxi-hailing software comes with a variety of service methods. Yuta Arai accepted orders to pick up and drop off the children of Zejing's family regularly. He picked up and dropped off the children to school every morning and evening, and sent them home for one semester. The parents thought that he had good service, so they were fixed.
He gave it to him alone, and over time, it became a habit and a part of his life.
After waiting for a while, Yuta Arai saw the familiar background holding a shoulder bag and hurriedly ran towards him.
Still so reckless...
Seeing this, Yuta Arai laughed a little, then adjusted the car to the stage of preparatory startup, and Hiroichi Sawai got on the car with a violent gasp. After closing the door, he skillfully tied himself with a seat belt.
Then take out breakfast from your shoulder bag and swallow the rice balls in your hands in a voracious manner.
Yuta Arai knew that the child had too much time to have breakfast at home after overslept.
But Yuta Arai just smiled and watched all this, then stepped on the accelerator and set off.
"Are you going to take the exam recently?"
On the way, Yuta Arai came up and asked Hiroshi Sawai a topic that was a bit uncomfortable for the latter.
"Ah...No, I'm still in the review stage."
This is a lie.
Even if he didn't look at Hiroichi Sawai's face, Yuta Arai could hear that he was obviously hesitating when he said this. This was a sign of lying but guilty.
Recently, the Sawai and his wife also told him that their children are going to prepare for the exam recently, so please help him.
Alas, his granddaughter and grandson used to tell the truth to him, but now young people have to say a word or two to his elders of his generation to cover up their own...
I guess I am afraid that I will inadvertently express my complaints and will be heard and told to my parents.
Although he knew, as the saying goes, seeing through but not talking about it, Yuta Arai would not continue to go deeper on this topic. Anyway, his goal has been achieved - because his words were a little nervous, Hiroichi Sawai was no longer sleepy at all.
In the past, after breakfast, Hiroichi Zekai would lie on the seat and sleep for a while, but the child's physique was a bit special. As long as he felt sleepy, even if he just lay down for a while, he would stop and start from time to time.
He could really sleep in the noise taxi, and even when the car stopped, if Yuta Arai didn't call him, he would continue to sleep until he woke up naturally.
It's really sleepy, but problems caused by physical fitness should not be too demanding.
This little "help" is enough now.
"Is that true? Just do it at your own pace."
"By the way, old man, what will you do after you send me? Will you continue to carry passengers?"
Hiroichi Sawai was anxious to change the topic.
"Ah, I usually go to the surrounding streets, or take orders, and at noon I will find a place to stop for dinner and see the scenery..."
Yuta Arai also started to talk to Hiroichi Sawai about driving a taxi, from how he cleaned the car, from the wonderful stories created by some interesting customers, and the beautiful dreams he had recently in a trance...
"There are too many people, and I always make noise when I get together. I miss it so much... I can only see it in my dreams now, but it's good. Even if I know it's a dream, I'm already satisfied."
When Hiroshi Zekai heard this, he nodded straight, but his eyes were staring at the car windows and floating up and down. It seemed that he didn't listen.
After all, it is a chat for the elderly, and there are very few topics that are interesting to young people. After hearing this, one ear will naturally come into the other.
Strangely, when people chat, their perception of time becomes very fast. When Yuta Arai was still proud of it, when Hiroshi Sawai heard it was almost asleep, the sound of dripping sounds suddenly sounded on his phone.
Remind them that the destination school has arrived.
"Goodbye, old man!"
After leaving a word, Hiroichi Sawai picked up his schoolbag and got out of the car in a hurry.
"...Your stuff has fallen."
Looking at the rice ball packaging bags falling from the car and the food residue inside, Yuta Arai's mouth twitched, but Hiroto Sawai had already run away. Even if he wanted to call him, it would be too late.
So Yuta Arai just shook his head secretly, sighed, and collected the garbage and put it into the garbage bin he had placed in the car.
This kid is still so disappointed.
Fortunately, this time he just lost the garbage. He pulled his schoolbag here a few times.
If no one takes care of you, it will cause a lot of trouble, right?
Looking at Hiroichi Sawa, Arai Yuta smiled, then grabbed the steering wheel, turned around, and drove away.
It’s okay to cause trouble, he is still young and can still bear it because of his minor problems.
After all, in this world, no one can continue to succeed in life, let alone perfection.
"But that dream is really beautiful."
But when I recalled the topic I just mentioned, Yuta Arai's face still couldn't help but look joyful.
My wife is still by my side, and my children at home also live with me with my grandchildren. I have no shortcomings and are very beautiful, so... this is a dream, and it will disappear like a bubble.
Life is bitter and sweet, so complete;
Love is fun only when there is trouble and harmony;
Only when the mood is sad and happy is the experience;
If there are sunny days, it is called nature;
Only when contact is sometimes not, it is precious.
Only when life is lacking can there be hope and achieve more perfection.
So now, that's enough.
The scene in the dream is not suitable for him after all.
