They both thought /CRZ
that a sudden feeling had united them \]bAXa{ p
This certainty is beautiful, @3T)J,f
but uncertainty is more beautiful still. vwA d6Tm

They thought they didn't know each other, lOk'stLNa&
nothing had ever happened between them. *^|.bBG
These streets, these stairs, this corridors, rUJIf;Zwo
they could have passed each other long ago <#c/uIN
$^[^]Q
I would like to ask them, -u!{8S~wA
if they can remember - QfHJZ7K.4
perhaps in a revolving door :PJ5~7C
face to face one day? FVi7gg.?
A "sorry" in the crowd? ?<mxv"
"Wrong number" on the phone? zTP|H5HyK
- but I know the answer. t@hE}R
No, they don't remember. zh{:zT)(1

How surprised they would be E@uxEF
for such a long time already ExJch\
fate has been playing with them. l)1FCDV

Not quite yet ready m]XG7:}V0
to change into destiny, &\w:jI44Bs
which brings them nearer and yet further, bUcq
LV
barriering their path -UTTJnu^
and suppressing a laugh, 7Pb:z4j
leaped aside. AEUXdMo
There were signs, indications, hXF#KVqx
but maybe just undecipherable. 2|n)ZP2cp
Three years ago, perhaps }VetaO2*
or even last Tuesday, wO>P<KBU
this leaf flying ,m"0Bu2
from one shoulder to another? cV|u]ce%1
Something was dropped and then picked up. @'D ,T^I
Who knows, perhaps the ball vanished ZKk*2EK]2z
into childhood bushes? /8$*{ay

# Vq"Cf
There were handles, door bells, KV1/!r+*
where, on the trace of a hand, E;*JD x
another hand was placed; [H-r0Ah
suitcases next to one another in the S(&]?!
left luggage. 3$~6+i
Perhaps they had the same dream on a certain night, ,.Sd)JB'
suddenly erased after waking. =

Every beginning QO fqW@g

他们都以为 cW|M4`
是那瞬间的感觉 q%rfKHMA50
将他们结合在一起 8`$lsD
这种确定的感觉很美 rB<za I\V
但那种不确定的感觉 L)mb.U$`c|
却更加妙不可言 u` j9m@`

他们觉得彼此从未见面 Ie<`WU K
也许从来没有发生过任何联系 @y+Hb@ >.
但那么多街道、楼梯、走廊 kr=&x)Wy!
或者他们曾在哪儿擦身而过呢 DXH"`1[-
~?BN4ptc
我想问问他们 8'nxc#&
是否记得在某个回转门 =Y-ZI
那个面对面的瞬间? 'TdO6-X
拥挤人潮中的那句「对不起」? ^kF-mM=
或者电话里的一句「打错了」? uy
t'
但我已经知道答案了 >&`S$1 o
不,他们并不记得 en1NFP

他们一定会十分惊讶 LYV\|a{Y
原来 tt%lDr1A)
运气一直在和他们捉迷藏 J8>8@m6
K9@F1ccQ/
但这运气 B0&W wa:
却还没有成为命运 tsqkV7?
它曾让他们如此接近 13lJq:bM
却又让他们擦肩而过 tu%!j}3s
阻断他们之间的联系 ZB|y
又忍着邪恶的笑意 @h91: hb

运气也曾经给过他们暗示 jH4'jB
但这暗示也许过于深奥 ]'%Z&1 w
可能在三年前 c[n4{q1
或者就在上个星期二 >3J?O96|f
不是就有一片落叶 F6vN{FI
从他的肩上飘到她的肩上? ux

一个人的东西曾经掉落 P*\h)F/3}t
又被另一个人拣起来 "PI]k
谁知道呢 |;[%ZE"
也许就是儿时树丛中的那个小皮球 (oKrIm

某个门把手上 ZWVN(U

两个人的手 )uJu.foE
也许曾经放在同一个位置 ~53uUT|B
两个人的包 Z%t"~r0PS
