Lovino Vargas is now in a teaching room of the university he attended, and he was allowed by his teacher to sit casually on the sofa beside him.

He leaned on the back of the sofa, looked at the ceiling for a while, and then stared at the pile of papers on the side of the coffee table in front of him. It was a pile of discarded forms, and the titles of the forms were written with terms he had never heard of. He doesn't matter.I always feel very lack of energy, maybe I didn't get enough nap today.

To be honest, he is a little uneasy now. There are only him and his Spanish teacher in this room now, and the source of his uneasiness is his teacher——Antonio Fernandez Carriedo himself.

Fernandez was sitting at the desk, seeming to be busy with some things at hand and had no time to take care of Lovino. After a while, he put down the pen in his hand, turned to Lovino, smiled and said to him, "Do you want coffee?"

"No need." Lovino rejected the teacher's kindness.Fernandez picked up the white porcelain cup on his table and took a sip. Although the instant coffee inside was already cold, he didn't mind.

"The second meeting, Lovino, you should remember my face this time, right?"

Although he used a joking tone, it didn't make Lovino feel relaxed, and he even felt embarrassed because he thought of the unbearable past.That was the first time I met Fernandez at Lovino's home. When Lovino opened the door and saw someone he didn't know, he used all kinds of rude words Greeted Fernandez (who thought he was a salesman and was in a bad mood).And when Fernandez responded that he was looking for Lovino, Lovino gave him a "haven't seen face of the asshole".

"You don't need to put on such an expression, I'm just talking to you casually." Sensing Lovino's nervousness, Fernandez smiled at him.But looking at Fernandez's positive smile, Lovino didn't appreciate it, and just cursed in his heart.This guy looks natural on the surface, but in fact he is completely black. Lovino had already realized it deeply when he met Fernandez for the first time.Although Fernandez's smile was so sincere and not hypocritical at this time, it did not impress Lovino at all.I won't be a beast a second time!he said in his heart.

"Then let's talk about this make-up exam. Last time I went to your house to persuade you to take the make-up exam, I was very happy that you finally agreed to me and came as promised, but..." Fernandez said from the table Lovino's test paper was pulled out from the pile of materials, and it was densely written in Spanish, "Did you just copy all the questions?"

"I can't help it! I've said Spanish and I don't know it at all, bastard..." From the beginning of the self-confidence to the sound gradually weakened, Lovino's face turned slightly red, as a person who should have learned Spanish A student for almost three years, but he couldn't even write a complete sentence, and he felt very humiliated. "The stinky woman who invigilated the exam said she had to finish it, she was so annoying, so... that's the only way..."

He went to university for two and a half years, but because he didn't like Spanish at all and often skipped classes in the early stage, he forgot a little bit of what he had learned at the beginning. Over time, he fell to the point where he knew nothing.Although Italian and Spanish are very close, Spanish is one of the best languages ​​for Italians to learn.But if he has no intention of studying, then God cannot save his grades.Gradually, he seldom took classes related to Spanish, and he was completely uninterested.He doesn't go to the exam either, the exam is a very sad thing, if he doesn't know the language, he can't make the paper look more substantial.

By the third year, he hadn't even attended a single Spanish class, which is why Fernandez reached out to him.

He has no interest in taking make-up exams or anything, he has already given up on himself.But the arrival of Fernandez made him change this idea, and he should be forced to change.He still has lingering fears about Fernandez's so-called "persuasion". This bastard is definitely a devil with a smile.

"Well, you've told me about your situation, but to be honest, I didn't expect it to be this bad." Fernandez smiled, and Lovino gave him a look. What a funny bastard, he said silently in his heart.

"And it's been two classes since I found you, and you still haven't attended?"

"You just reminded me to remember to take the make-up exam..." Lovino turned his eyes away and argued in a low voice.

Fernandez looked at him with a smile on his face, that smile made Lovino panic, he finally couldn't help it, and said, "Don't look at me with that expression, you bastard."

"Is this still your attitude towards the teacher?"

"It's your fault! Put on that expression...you won't be able to sleep at night if you see it...Hey! What are you doing...don't come here...you bastard..." Before I could finish speaking, I saw Fernandez standing Getting up and walking towards him, Lovino shrank subconsciously into the sofa in fright, and looked at Fernandez with a dark face.But Fernandez just put a piece of paper on the coffee table in front of him.

"Fill this out."

"This is... what?" Lovino looked down at the contents of the paper, and was taken aback when he saw the words of the application for revision, and then flatly refused: "I don't want it! "

"Why? You can't help it if you don't retake it. You have never passed this course. You can't graduate if you don't get credits."

"I'll take the exam next time! As long as you pass the damned thing!" Lovino said, isn't it just an exam, if you try to cheat...

"No way." Fernandez said as if he had seen through Lovino's thoughts. "It's better for you to rebuild."

"Absolutely not!" Leaving aside the fact that he didn't want to sit in the same classroom as a senior with younger students, and there would be extra expenses for retaking.My younger brother Feliciano’s private art school expenses are already astonishingly expensive, and the money he owes is already a heavy burden, and Feliciano will go to Germany as an exchange student in more than 20 days. Absolutely no unnecessary expenses can be added. "Don't meddle in your own business!" Lovino said to Fernandez.

"I am your teacher."

"Which university teacher is as busy as you? As long as the grades pass, everyone is OK!" Lovino said impatiently. "Also, isn't the time to apply for reconstruction already passed?"

"I'll take care of that for you. And, if you don't go, what about this?" Fernandez picked up the attendance record sheet on the table and shook it, "Lovino, since you started my class, all your attendance records are X, if you add 0 points in the exam, you will be repeated, but the result is the same anyway, you have to retake the class."

"Ugh!" Lovino was startled, and almost forgot about it.

"If you retake it, I don't have to report it. On the contrary, you can't skip classes during class, you have to pass the exam." Fernandez said with his bastard (in Lovino's eyes) smile .

"Asshole..." Damn, is that a threat?But you don't need to think about it, which one is more serious, retake or being expelled, is there such a threat in the world that is cost-effective for his sake. "Damn...I promise you, don't sue me." He stared at Fernandez and whispered.

"Okay." Fernandez agreed.

Lovino filled out and signed the retake application form, and Fernandez filled out the teacher comments.

"Thanks for your hard work, I will hand in this for you."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go first bastard."

"Well. Goodbye."

I don't feel like saying goodbye to you at all.Lovino walked out of the teaching room depressed, maybe he wanted to tell his younger brother that the living expenses will be reduced again this month, and he will not see minced meat in the pasta in the future, so he should tighten his belt.This is really too bad and it's all that jerk teacher's fault!

After leaving school, Lovino did not go home directly, but went to a park near his home.There he found Feliciano.

He sat on the flower bed in the park with his hands folded, and Feliciano next to him was drawing portraits with an easel.Feliciano would come to the park to do this when he was free. The fee was not expensive, but the price of color was twice that of black and white, and beautiful ladies were sometimes free.Feliciano's major in university is design, but he is also very proficient in art, probably because of his genetics, which is very similar to their grandfather, except that such good genes did not fall to Lovino.

The identical faces of the twins have attracted many customers for them, because people passing by will always look at them curiously. They look exactly the same and are very handsome.Whenever a beautiful lady came to paint, Lovino's role (and his purpose) came into play, and he would say to the lady:

"Pay attention to your eyes, please look towards me, it's better to be more affectionate, so that the drawing is more vivid."

Therefore, the beauties drawn by Feliciano are all looking to the right without exception, and some women's faces will be flushed.For his brother's stupid behavior, Feliciano has no way to stop it. If he stops it, he will be scolded.

But today Lovino seemed to be preoccupied and didn't have much interest in teasing girls.When the sun went down, Feliciano packed his things and was about to go back. The two walked on the forest path.

"Hey, brother, I won another prize for my painting, and I got a nice bonus." Feliciano said.

Lovino looked up, bonus? "How many?"

"It's enough for your rent next month. We can live a little easier this month!"

"Damn less relax! Save it for me!"

"VE..."

"Isn't it because your mother is going to Germany next month, how much money do you think we have left, you bastard?" He knew that Feliciano was very interested in Germany and had always wanted to travel to Germany. Feliciano would never let go of the opportunity he got to go to Germany as an exchange student.

"But... without this bonus, it's just enough, isn't it? So..."

Lovino was silent for a moment, and then told Feliciano that he wanted to rebuild, and he had to spend a sum of money.He lowered his head and kicked the pebbles under his feet. After a while, he heard Feliciano's soft laughter. He raised his head and looked at Feliciano.

"That's great, the bonus is just right."

"Feliciano..." Lovino said softly, seeing his younger brother's relaxed smile, he felt a little self-blame and inferior.I really can't do anything well, but I always add trouble, even though that younger brother also often causes trouble, and the troubles of the two together are multiplied by two, but I have to admit that from the current point of view, my younger brother is much better than him Much, much more useful than him.

They walked slowly back to the street where their house was located. It was an old street, although it was a bit narrow, it was very clean and beautiful.The light gray houses that are no more than three stories high and built with stone bricks for two weeks retain a quiet old time.There are flowerpots placed on the doorways and window sills of many households. There are poles in the flowerpots. It is also dotted with delicate red flowers.It is like a beautiful picture scroll of the Middle Ages.

They lived on the second floor of one of the buildings, which was their home.If it can be called a home, after all, the house is rented, because there are few university buildings, and many college students can only rent houses by themselves.There are also flower pots in front of their windows, where Feliciano keeps flowers.Although this is a little waste wood that can't even take care of his own, the miracle is that he can take care of these beautiful flowers and keep them alive.

When they went back to the house, Feliciano went to put his things away in his studio, which was supposed to be his bedroom, but he had so many things that there was no place to put them. It's full of his design supplies, fabrics, paints, easels, etc., and sometimes it's too crowded to be at the dining room table when he's painting.Feliciano's bedboard has been used to pile up all kinds of utensils, so he has no place to sleep, so he can only squeeze a wooden bed with Lovino.Of course Lovino didn't want this, but Feliciano cried and stuck to him like a plaster, he kicked him twice and he still stayed on his bed, so he could only agree in the end.

Feliciano was again at the dinner table getting ready to paint, and he was going to do illustrations for magazines, which was one of the ways he made money.Lovino is changing clothes. He will apply for a job later, and he will go to perform and dance in the nightclub.

He used to do this job two years ago, and the job is actually very easy. He only needs to dance two or three songs every night.Even so, it's still unbearable, because he hates the way men look at him erotically, and of course he doesn't mind at all if it's a girl.Girls like him very much, think he is cute, dances well, and a handsome and simple boy like him is always attractive.But some men always want to do something to him so that he often conflicts with male guests.He quit the job for two weeks because a man paid him to sleep with him. Of course he refused, but the man bribed his boss and he was almost raped.The real reason for his resignation, of course, hadn't been told to Feliciano, and thinking about it now made him sick as hell.

Even so, Lovino is still willing to apply for this kind of job today, because dancing is the only thing he can do well at the moment, and because if he doesn’t find some work, he may not even be able to live in a house next month. Just got fired for knocking down a shelf while working in a grocery store, and the paycheck went all the way to compensation.Another reason is that the salary of this nightclub is paid once a week, and the salary is good. If he can't stand it, he can wait until the salary is paid in a week and resign immediately.

The job was introduced to him by a female friend in Lovino named Ruth, who worked at the store.The shop was very popular and had high demands on performers, and Ruth assured them that Lovino was a super good dancer, and he got this opportunity.I contacted the store and made an appointment with Ruth, and Ruth said to take him there herself.Before Lovino went out, Feliciano said that he would prepare dinner and wait for him to come back.

Lovino and Ruth came to the store, which was on the second floor of a building close to the bustling area of ​​the city. They explained their purpose to the security guard at the door. After the security guard called to confirm, they were allowed to pass without tickets.Entering inside, Lovino found that it was a very large store. Compared with the smog of ordinary nightclubs, the style here was more upscale, with exquisite and luxurious decoration, no wonder it was very famous.It's just that the genius is just dark now, and there are not many people.

Lovino noticed that there was a cordon around the stage, and Ruth said there would be security guards around the show during the show because drunk or mad guests would climb onto the stage.

Ruth took him to the backstage, passing through some rooms, and Lovino looked inside curiously.

"These rooms are dressing rooms, and they can also be used for rest. Everyone who performs here has a separate room. Although it is relatively small...but it is still treated like a star, right? Few stores can do this How about this level. Also, this big room is a warm-up room, and the clothes that are piled up in that room are all free to use during the performance..."

"You seem familiar?"

"That's because I'm working in the background...here, it's here."

Stopping in front of a room, Ruth knocked on the door, and only opened the door and went in after hearing a reply from the inside that she could go in.

"Here we come." A man in his 30s was sitting inside, "The time is just right."

"Yes, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Bivis, the manager in charge of the store. This is Lovino, whom I recommended to you."

"Hello." Bivis nodded to Lovino.

"Well... hello."

"So let's cut the long story short, have you ever performed in a store like this before?"

"A little bit, not long."

"How long is it?"

"Two months, and then resigned."

"May I ask the reason for your resignation...I ask this because I want to understand clearly the resident actors we want to recruit."

"That's because I went to school. The courses in that semester were relatively tight. If I often worked late, it would affect the next day's class, so I changed jobs." Lovino edited, and tried his best to hold back his Those vulgar oral fetishes.

"Are you still in school?"

"Yes, but this time it doesn't matter, because most of the time I can sleep until noon."

"Oh, okay. Now you can perform in front of me, and I can prepare music for you."

Lovino took off his coat; he was wearing a vest.He has muscles, although they are not very prominent, but it makes his skin look firm, which is obviously formed by long-term dancing practice.When the music came from the stereo, he swayed to the beat. For him, dancing was as easy as eating. After all, he used to be a professional, and the three teachers who taught him all regarded him as a genius.

Bivis looked admiringly, and applauded a few times after the song ended.

"Excellent! You made a good proposal this time, Ruth."

"Right? I'll just say that little Lovino's words are absolutely fine!"

"Then, Mr. Vargas, I will give you a two-week probationary period. There will be no salary during the probationary period. You can get 10% of the tips on the stage, and the tips off the stage are yours. Come to work this Saturday, for you The show is scheduled to be after 30:[-] every night, no problem, right?"

"Hey, two weeks is a little long, isn't it?" Means two weeks of zero pay.

"Excellent performance can lead to regularization in advance. In fact, most of our employees basically finished the trial in the first week. According to the amount of tips they received, they stayed or left. If you want to make money or stay, you must work hard. Find a way to attract customers." Bivis said meaningfully.

Lovino couldn't help feeling a little disgusted by this kind of middle-of-the-road, and he knew what it meant.But he can't do anything but dance and be with girls.Of course, he will not speak out these words of dissatisfaction. Now as long as the job can make money, it is a good job.He will avoid what he can avoid, and leave if he can't avoid it.

Lovino leaves the store, and Ruth stays at work.When he returned home, Feliciano made pasta and waited for him. Eating pasta was the happiest thing of the day. He could forget all the unpleasantness while eating pasta, and then he took a shower Just went to bed.
