Copy right belong to author. This translation only my hobbies and respect to her works.
Sudden light brighten between two broken sleeps, those kiosks places at sides of the country road, selling food at midnight til breaking dawn; usually they make my mind flows, as if there are people, haunting or waiting. It takes some times, and rub my eyes several times to realize that light is not dreaming. Sleeping in the coach is a vaguely mixing of dreams and real life. Coughing sounds of the elderly seating next by just perfectly matched with the face of grandma who pass away long time ago.The sad melody turned on by the young driver trying to light up this boredom, now becomes the background of a shadow gliding on the river. Everything just be confirmed not dreaminess when the coach stops, and people sleepily get off.
