今天的實驗都壓在下午,上午學生沒有來,part-time也不在, 以撒不知去了哪裏, 老板最近不坐實驗室了,我一個人守著這間很大的屋,好象我剛來這裏工作的感覺回來了,有點兒輕鬆,那時候,我至少還沒有被我的課題弄的頭痛. 還有隻有我和以撒,沒有其他的人,沒有來了又走了的輪轉的學生和訪問的學生,當然沒有了隨之而來的煩惱(不喜歡的人留著)和傷感(喜歡的人走了).
剛見到以撒的時候,也是吃了一驚,(希望當時有掩飾),我沒有想到我的同事會是黑人,第二天上班,我們不知如何談起話來,非常的投機,他好不隱瞞的說出了皮膚的顏色帶來的故事,我喜歡坦誠的人,我自己就是一個毫無心計的人,心到嘴到表情不懂隱藏的人.
以撒是個來在非洲的虔誠的christian,他的祖父和父親都是傳教士,他自己也曾在教會裏做事,當時的他已是很久沒有去教堂了,他對那裏的人失望讓他選擇自己worship 上帝,他說他每天都在感謝上帝, 上帝walked with him through many difficulty time in his life.我們也有爭論關於基督徒的行為,那是去年的時候,他完全lost his control in front of other people, anyway, it was bad argument, I understood his point, but I did not like the way he talked it out., then I had to ask him out and prayed together to calm him down.
Yes, like in a family, arguments are not bad all the time, sometimes, it can get people closer, but it is hard to keep it in a good way carefully when people get excited.
I should say he is good man with some flaws like anyone else. I appreciated everything he did for me and especailly that I had a chance to trust someone even just for a while. Work is not that hard when you feel you have someone you trust around.
He will leave here sooner or later like he said; I guess no one really knows when that moment comes.
然而, 發生的事情有時候是無法彌補的, 以撒不再是那個可以讓我信賴的同事,我曾經說過我很幸運有這樣一位的同事,這個幸運可以彌補我的錯誤,來這個城市.
一個人就這樣想著,有點傷感和無奈,每天還可以見到以撒,但是他隻是我的同事而已
