Selena kissed me on the forehead and showed her rare smile. I have to admit, she looks quite charming when she smiles.
I only asked for half of the money back, but in order to please Selena and make our family a little more harmonious, I paid the other half out of my own pocket. It happened to be 500 rubles, which I handed over to Selena.
You know, I have always been a person without a family, so how much I long for the warmth of a family being together!
She was very happy with everything I did for her. This is something only I know, and even many other things, I have borne on my own. I didn't even tell her until I completely broke up with Betty.
In the days that followed, there was a relatively calm period for quite some time. During this time, I still managed to read many books in my spare time and had the good fortune to meet a poor college student journalist named Marco, who left a deep impression on me. Whenever I dreamt of starting something new or felt ambitious, I would think of him.
He told me that he had traveled across the ocean to get here, and that he had visited almost every country in Europe. He said he wanted to travel the world.
I met him in a park. He chose a corner, laid out a mat, and placed many photos on it, all of which were taken at famous scenic spots. They looked as if they were taken by a professional photographer. He sold them for very little money, just enough for his meals and travel expenses.
I felt that this young man was different from many other young people, including myself. I felt that he was full of energy, an energy that seemed inexhaustible. I became interested in him and took the initiative to talk to him.
"Hi, friend, can we be friends!" I put a few photos in front of him.
"Please feel free to take any photo you like!" He spoke very quickly, without even looking at me.
"You are an interesting person, how can you be so rude!"
"I only do the right things, say the right words, time is precious to me. I don't have the leisure to understand your world!"
"Is giving you more money not enough?" I put down a few more gobbies for him.
"Alright, since you've given me more gobbies, I'll chat with you a bit more. But first, you have to answer my questions: Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?"
"What? What are you saying! My name is Zhang Xiaobei, I'm not from here, and as for where I want to go, I haven't decided yet!"
"That's the difference between you and me. You won't understand anything I say, so I refuse to chat with you!"
"What do you mean, friend? You've confused me. I approached you because I noticed you were different from other young people, and I wanted to learn something from you. I thought you were easygoing, but a guy who can't even afford travel expenses is still so arrogant! It's really rare!"
"Oh, you're quite good at judging people! I don't have travel expenses, and I haven't even had a proper meal in two days, but I have dreams!"
His words shocked me, and suddenly I felt that I should also be a person with dreams.
"Then let me treat you to a meal and listen to you talk about your dreams, how about that!" I said.
Marco carefully looked me up and down, then agreed to have dinner with me.
I want to see how big the ambitions of a poor student really are.
