野点(Outliers Radio)野点电台#063：轻取 by Jing槐柏 《轻取》发表于《北京出行》2019年7月。回来的路上，你坐在副驾驶的位置，她开着车，俩人一言不发。本来你俩是去参加朋友的婚礼的，婚礼现场在一个海滨城市，当地盛产啤酒与矿泉水，距离你们所在的城市开车要4、5个小时的路程。大老远过来赴婚宴，新郎新娘还在家里给你俩安排了一间屋，一张双人床，招待你俩晚上留宿。她倒无所谓，但是你觉得你们俩要是睡在一张床上确实会尴尬无比，毕竟你们俩只不过是要好的朋友关系。你找了个借口说来的时候太匆忙忘记给家里的猫爷爷喂水了着急回家，担心猫，就跟她急匆匆的上了车，往回赶。她本来还想第二天去海边走走，你这么一闹，全泡汤了，她的年假算是白请了。你一直觉得她在车里失去了往日的欢声笑语，都是你的一意孤行破坏了她的年假所造成的，也许是，但并不是主要原因，主要原因你自己最清楚。你一直把脸对向窗外，你内心充满着歉意，即便窗外闪过难得一见的自然景观和历史建筑，你也没有胆量拿出手机去拍，你怕再度激怒了她。你以为接下来的4小时路程会这么相安无事，那你真是错了！她突然就发疯了似的，加速起来，你头顶的帽子，被气流吹掉，成为了后视镜里转瞬即逝的过客。你也没敢说什么。你唯一能做到的就是数路灯，忘记了数过多少个路灯，你就睡着了。等你再度睁开双眼的时候，天亮了，路灯都灭了，肩头传来阵阵椰子洗发水的味道，你发现车停在了你们家的楼下，而她的脑袋正靠在你的肩膀上，开了这么久的车，她也累坏了，靠着你的肩膀睡着了。你总算不用在强制自己去看窗外了，你终于能像往常一样，看着她的侧脸，你喜欢看她的侧面，因为，你从来不敢正视她，不敢正面她的感情。于是，你继续当做什么也没发生一样，你不想去唤醒她，你知道谁也无法唤醒一个在装睡的人，因为，你看到了她的嘴角带有一丝上扬的微笑。---------------------------------------------------------------------------------这期是安藤文字的驱使。Tracklist：01.
