1175 Disheartened
New York in January and Chicago in February are icy and snowy, biting, and dark. Looking at the endless winter, it is so long and so desolate. It seems that you will never get out, just trapped in the endless. In the gray, even a slight sigh is so sad and melancholy.
But such an environment is perfect for "Drunk Country Folk". Even the mist and coldness in the air are so perfect. The entire crew just follows the footsteps of LeVeon Davis and swims Walking in the streets of Greenwich Village, and then one day dragging a guitar case, hitchhiking all the way to Chicago; and then came back disgraced..
The filming work is progressing extremely smoothly. In just three weeks, most of the filming has been completed and the final stage has entered..
When I come back again, Greenwich Village is still the same Greenwich Village, with gray streets, gray skies, and gray crowds. The large swaths of gray make time meaningless. It seems as if I have been gone for a long time, but it seems that I have never been there. left.
Standing at the door of Jim and Jane's apartment, they rang the doorbell. They had no sense of shame, no guilt, and even no sense of morality. There was only calmness and fatigue on their faces. Jane's voice came from the intercom. Voice, "Hello？”
“This is LeVine. Don't hang up. I have no plans to stay, I just need a place to put my stuff, please. I just don't have the energy to lug it around anymore..”
There was no pause, no gap, and all the words were poured out in one go. Because of the last conversation, LeVine and Jane broke up on bad terms. Jane was completely out of anger, yelling and screaming, and it seemed like forever. Don't want to see him again. But he needs to put his things down. They are so heavy that they are almost crushing him..
There was a deep tiredness in those lowered eyes, which lingered, as if the whole person had melted into the gray and gloomy sky of New York. The thick beard was a bit messy and could be vaguely captured. The mess and embarrassment of not being able to have a good rest until last night. The scarf hanging loosely above my neck was stained with coffee, but it was too late to take care of it..
“Please? " Lewin raised his tail slightly, but before his voice had time to rise, he fell heavily, short and crisp, without leaving any tail. Then he lowered his eyes again, and his eyes were dark and dead, with a trace of light. Can't catch it.
Silence, still silence, Jane did not make a sound. But at the end of the silence, the door of the apartment opened..
LeVine closed his eyes, exhaled invisibly, and pushed open the apartment door..
The thin and burly figure was slowly moving forward in the long and narrow corridor. He was trying to lift his steps, but the heavy feeling of falling made the whole person look extremely cumbersome. The straight spine and strong shoulders never bent, and the strength in his bones was Nobility and pride seem to have never disappeared, but the straight shoulder line reveals a touch of loneliness and vicissitudes, and the desolation of life is gradually calming down..
A dirty leather travel bag was slung over his left shoulder, and a weathered guitar case was carried in his right hand..
This is all the luggage. But this kind of luggage almost crushes his shoulders, and it seems that he can no longer bear it..
The footsteps stopped in front of the cobalt blue apartment door, and he knocked on the door panel. The dull sound echoed in the corridor. LeVine straightened his shoulders invisibly, as if the weight of his right hand was slowly relaxing. dragging the body.
The door to the apartment opened, and an indifferent Jane appeared in sight..
She lowered her eyes, as if she didn't want to see LeVine at all, and she didn't even want to make eye contact. However, she still looked at him gently from the corner of her eyes, and caught the dusty figure, which seemed to be no different from before. , but it seemed to be a little different, indescribable, which made her look away, turned her head slightly, and then stepped out of the passage..
LeVine didn't speak or raise his head. He walked into the room silently, and walked to the corner with slow steps and familiarity. There was a touch of relief between his brows, and he couldn't wait to put the guitar case in his hand. He placed it in the corner, but his eager movements became gentle just as the guitar case was about to land. He carefully placed the guitar case and travel bag in the corner next to the radiator..
After closing the door to the apartment and turning around, Jane noticed LeVine's back. Her eyebrows could not help but frown slightly, and that strange feeling hit her heart again, but she did not notice LeVine's movements, she just fell on above the back.
After hesitating for a moment, she raised her chin, assuming a posture that would repel people thousands of miles away, because she knew that LeVine was like chewing gum and could not be shaken off, so she had to make a firm posture. That's fine, otherwise, this guy will take advantage of it, every time, without exception..
“Where are you going to stay? "Jian's voice was soft but distant, and she made her position clear as soon as she opened her mouth: It's just a matter of placing luggage, and it's absolutely impossible to stay here tonight..
“I don't know." LeVine's answer was indeed LeVine's style, but he didn't notice the change in Jane's tone because he was really too tired and didn't even have the strength to speak, so He didn't have the energy to explore the deep meaning behind those words; even if he heard them, he didn't want to care..
“It only takes two nights." LeVine said. He finally made sure that his guitar case would not be kicked or hit. He put his travel bag outside to block the space. He stood up straight and looked at the guitar case and travel bag, and then shook his head. He didn’t know why he cared so much about the placement of the guitar case, like a fool..
Then LeVine scratched his messy hair and breathed a sigh of relief, "Within five blocks, you can definitely find someone who is not offended by me." His face was calm and calm, and he complained and insulted himself. It seemed perfectly normal. He was just explaining a simple fact. After he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth raised slightly and he twitched, but in the end he was still not in a joking mood, and he calmed down immediately..
He is self-aware.
Jane lowered her eyelids, avoided LeVine's gaze, and ignored his self-pity. This method no longer worked for her..
LeVine stood there, awkwardly changing his steps, tilting his head slightly to hide his anxiety, but his voice remained steady, "How do you feel?？”
Jane glanced at LeVine and replied calmly, "Very good." But then she noticed the hesitation and hesitation in LeVine's eyes, which seemed to be a little nervous and uneasy. This was not what she was familiar with. LeVine, the first thought that comes to mind is that LeVine has gotten into trouble again.？
But, this is not surprising.
Jane raised her eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong?" The cold voice still remained distant, and she made a defensive posture, refusing to provide any help..
Lewin also seemed to be stuck, staring quietly into Jane's eyes. He could feel the alienation and coldness, and even a sense of aloofness. He lowered his eyes, pursed his lips awkwardly, and looked at the rest of his eyes. The light carefully landed on Jane's lower abdomen and lowered her voice, "So that thing went smoothly.？”
Jane noticed LeVine's gaze and instantly rolled her eyes. She even raised her head and looked up at the sky. It seemed that she didn't know where to start even if she complained. A surge of anger mixed with helplessness came to her, and she gritted her teeth. Word by word, "Saturday is the time for surgery.".”
“Jesus Christ! "Jian's voice couldn't help but rise, with uncontrollable anger, but she couldn't tell whether it was because she was annoyed by LeVine's stupidity and ignorance, or because she felt stupid and ignorant because she actually believed that LeVine would remember the operation time. Ashamed, “Levine, you/mother/can’t even remember！”
But, this is LeVine.
Jane walked to the sofa angrily, hugged her knees, and sat curled up in the corner of the sofa, assuming a defensive posture.
LeVine's facial features wrinkled, making an annoyed expression, and then rubbed his aching temples. He felt extremely ridiculous, and shook his head slightly, with disappointment in himself written all over his face, "Yes. , man, I'm sorry, I... I went out for a trip, uh, it feels like a long, long time passed. But it's actually only a few days..”
Lewin turned around and looked at Jane, just watching quietly, then lowered his eyes in annoyance, avoiding Jane's cold gaze, hesitated for a moment, and sat down directly opposite Jane , and thought back for a moment: How many days did he go to Chicago?？
From taking a ride to Chicago, staying in Chicago, then taking a ride back to New York, then going to the shipping company to find a job and sign up, and then returning to my sister's house to look for her crew certificate, only to find that my sister had thrown away all her documents. , the crew certificate will naturally no longer exist..
Going around in a big circle, it feels like a lifetime ago.
But in fact, in just a few days, the world has become completely different - or, the world is still exactly the same, and time has stayed in place forever, losing its meaning. This feeling is really It's indescribable, and I suddenly fell into a trance..
Then he realized that Jane was still in front of him.
LeVine gently retracted his jaw, "Um... um... I'm sorry." He repeated it over and over again, so that the word "sorry" seemed to have lost its meaning..
“where have you been? "Jian blinked and asked critically..
“……Chicago." LeVine's thoughts still hadn't calmed down, and he took off his scarf tiredly and lazily..
“Why? "Jian could feel LeVine's fatigue bursting from the depths of his soul. She didn't even realize it, and her tone slowed down slightly..
LeVine's movement of untying his scarf stopped where he was, as if he was also lost in thought: Why? Why did he go to Chicago in the first place? Looking back now, everything becomes blurry, so that my mind goes blank.
