"Ah, open your mouth -"
"Rogelio, you are so excellent. You can chew it by yourself..."
I saw the video that Susie sent to me, smile on my face all the time.
Although the food was just liquid, Rogelio no longer needed to sniff and stomach tube. Instead, he
could open his mouth and deliver the food as requested.
I didn't expect that Rogelio could recover so soon.
I put the phone back in my pocket with a smile. I couldn't remember how many times I had watched it.
I sat in a corner of the street. Taking off the mask, I ate the takeout I had just bought.
But when I realized that there was someone else who was stopping beside me, I quickly put on my
mask.
The man didn't leave. I looked up and found it was Robbie.
I patted my heart and said, "Oh, it's you?"
During my injury, Robbie and Rosie came to visit me a lot. Maybe it was because we had spent more
time with each other, I was not as stiff as I used to be.
Robbie hadn't changed. Although he talked longer, his tone was still as cold as ice.
"The doctor said that your arm needs to rest for at least a month. Why do you come out again? Don't
you know this is more harm than good? "
I smiled, "it's just giving out leaflets. It doesn't matter. I can take a little less a time."
"I can't make much money by this. I'll find a decent job after my recovery."
I looked at Robbie. I don't know why, but every time I saw his iceberg like face, I felt very friendly.
Maybe it was because he looked very much like Rogelio.
"I want to pay back the money as soon as possible."
Robbie sat next to me, slightly bent his body, with his arms on his legs, his fingers interlocked, and
turned his head to look at me, with a touch of emotion that I couldn't understand flashing in his eyes.
Robbie seemed to adjust his tone and asked me. "Why do you wear the mask when you eat?"
I smiled helplessly. "Last time, I helped Rosie a lot. And some of the advertisements have not been
replaced yet. Someone asked me if I am the same person. I know my job now isn't decent. I don't want
to ruin Rosie's design because of some bad news, so... "
I didn't want to say anything more.
"Oh, I almost forget. Please accept it."
Then I took out my phone and transferred two thousand to Robbie through wechat.
Looking at the red packet on the wechat, Robbie didn't receive it. "How come there is so much?"
It was quite rare to hear two thousand is much from someone like Robbie.
"It's far from 180000. If I give the money back to you in such a small amount, do you mind?"
"You only earn 3000 a month!"
I didn't try to guess the tone of Robbie. I just hoped he wouldn't mind if I gave him back in such a small
amount.
"I intended to pay you 500 more, but I bought some anti-inflammatory and painkillers. I don't have
enough money."
I apologetically lowered my head and swayed the food with chopsticks.
Staring at the red packet for a few minutes, Robbie finally took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll take
it."
I was very happy to see that Robbie was willing to receive it, just as when he took over the wage card.
From my point of view, he does this out of respect for me.
"Let's eat."
Then Robbie stood up.
I thought he was leaving, but he picked up the leaflets near me.
Could you imagine such a scene? A tall and handsome man, in an Italian handmade suit, stood on the
street giving out leaflets.
I didn't stop him at that time. Instead, I took the takeout in my hand and quietly looked at the carefully
arranged Robbie in the distance who was giving out leaflets for me.
At that moment, I felt a sense of warmth that I had never felt before.
I had asked myself many times what is happiness?
I didn't know at that time. It turned out that happiness had also passed from my side.
That day, Robbie came to my house with many big shopping bags and filled the fridge with everything I
needed.
"Why did you buy so many things? How long do I need to eat them up alone?"
I saw Robbie put things in one by one. Most of them were the fresh vegetables, fruits and meat that I
was usually not willing to buy.
"You need to eat less instant noodles from now on. You'll suffer from indigestion if you continue to eat
like this."
"I did put an egg in it."
It was very effective. Robbie put the food away and closed the fridge door. When he turned around and
glanced at me, he saw me still holding a rag.
"In fact, even if you don't work for him, he won't know as he is abroad."
"I just hurt my left arm. My right hand and legs are in good condition. There is no need for me to slack
off."
Robbie came towards me with a cold face, like a moving iceberg.
But when he was in front of me, this tall man bowed down and took the rag from my hand.
I thought Robbie just wanted to grab my tools, but he took off his suit coat and threw it on the table.
Then he squatted down to help me wipe the floor.
"How could you do this? Give it back to me!"
I hurriedly squatted down to stop Robbie. I have seen many servants in his family. It's really strange for
the man who has always been superior to others squatting on the ground to wipe the floor.
Robbie raised his eyebrows and looked at my hand which was holding out to him. He frowned slightly
and stopped me from doing what I wanted to do next.
It was more accurate to say that I respect him than fear him.
And my respect came from my gratitude to him.
But I didn't stand up. I just squatted with Robbie and watched him doing housework.
Robbie had long and curly eyelashes, which looked really beautiful.
It seemed that Robbie didn't feel good squatting there. He had tried to find a comfortable squat for
several times.
It was obvious that Robbie did not do any housework. He frowned and I felt that he was going to lose
his patience.
"Isn't there a mop here? Why do you have to wipe the floor with a rag in such a troublesome way? "
"Because it is cleaner in this way that you can even wipe the dust in the corner."
Robbie said in a serious tone suddenly. "Don't you know that sometimes laziness is also a kind of life?"
Robbie had told me a lot of things that make sense. Every time I read them carefully, but this time, I
couldn't help but smile.
It turned out that Robbie would also find an excuse for his laziness.
He threw the rag aside like a little kid. Now he was sitting on the floor with his legs crossed and asked
me why I was laughing.
I didn't know if I'm the only one who can tell that Robbie's not angry because of my smile.
He was just finding himself an excuse to take a break.
It was the first time that I had faced Robbie with ease and nature.
I also sat on the ground with my left arm hanging in front of my chest and right hand supporting my
body casually.
"My life don't allow me to be lazy. I have no right to do that."
When I talked about this in the past, I just felt so painful that it reminded me of the painful experience of
the past. But this time, I didn't. I smiled and dared to accept it.
I knew that I had to thank Robbie for this change at the moment.
