Whose hands holding in the rain
To Q, my Dear Friend. You asked me why I never wrote you into my stories, I said that I saw no reason to do so. You looked at me as if you didn’t see me.But did you feel that I only told half of the truth?I saw you in every wink of my dreams, […]
Melting ice and many elseworlds
“Human relationships were strange. I mean, you were with one person a while, eating and sleeping and living with them, loving them, talking to them, going places together, and then it stopped.”– Charles Bukowski – “One day, you will find your true one.” He said as we parted, and I stepped into the elevator.On the […]
My misspent days
That night, I suddenly woke up at 3:29 in the morning. At some moments, I believed I had been dreaming since everything was so serene, as still as someone just pressed the mute button, and things went subdued. What I dreamt about that night?

Goldfish and I
The tired washing machine was humming in the neon light. I looked down at my watch, and it was already 4 in the morning. The couple living next door may already hate me, but it doesn’t matter anyway. For no reason, I find nearly dawn is the perfect time for doing laundry. I lay down […]

Vị kem ngòn ngọt, hậu vị có chút mằn mặn. Tôi ngẩng đầu đón cơn gió lướt qua, thế rồi để cái khô hanh mơn man trên da mặt. Trên cao, mặt trời dìu dịu như bị bao bọc sau tấm lọc phim nhàu nát. Anh ngồi bên, lặng lẽ không nói gì. Ngoài xa, […]
Time
“As long as the sun is shining, I’m here with you”, he whispered to my right ear. His breath dewed in the hot flow of alcohol and tobacco scent. At the same time, a stream of warm water was also gliding through my heart. The man who appears to be cold and reserved, then had […]
