Small story on rainy days

Việt Văn |

The small technology motorbike taxi driver, wearing glasses, came to pick me up on a busy afternoon, with black clouds traveling up to his head, signaling that the rain was about to fall after a long series of hot days. Seeing him say it was cool in the rain, he laughed slightly: We are the opposite. The bigger the weather, the more I like it, the younger I get, so I don't mind the heat. In addition, the sunny the car, the higher the price".

He said that his hometown is about 200km from Hanoi, where the summer wind is hot and the winter wind is gusting. At just 20 years old, he has been studying Physics in Hanoi for 2 years, and during his summer vacation, he took advantage of the opportunity to drive a motorbike taxi to earn more money. In the evening, she was a Math teacher for children around the dormitory. He said that he had the opportunity to review knowledge and avoid having to ask his parents for money. His parents are all farmers, their whole life "selling face to land, selling back to heaven" is just "sweating is running out of money".

Working in the fields is hard, so the skin get dark and the back is bulging due to old age. "Luckily, my father is only a cigarette user, not alcohol. If we were addicted, we would not have the strength to do the job," he said, his voice was both honest and humorous. He himself does not drink alcohol, only drinks water with a bottle of water always in the basket.

His motorbike was quite old, passing through the potholes, the motorbike was stunted, the engine noise was heavy. change change your skin, sweat on the back of your shirt. He said, this sunshine makes people uncomfortable, but for him it is an opportunity. Customers are more afraid to walk, wait, and book more cars.

"If I work hard on a sunny day, my income is one and a half times as much as normal days. Fatigue is fatigue, but having money is good. He said that he would go as far as he could, that way, not dreaming of anything high. But if it is his wish, he wants to do some job to get a lot of money in the future. Although his father stays at home all year round, he just wants his children to go far away in the future as if to satisfy some of his dreams.

It started to rain and the car had stopped, he got off the car, paid and did not get the excess money back. He bowed his head to thank him for a good day off the bus. He watched his back weaving in the crowded crowd in the increasingly heavy rain.

For many people, the rain brings coolness to the air, but for motorbike taxi drivers, it reduces income. Life is inherently full of paradoxes that only people in the game understand. He wondered, will he ever achieve his dream of "going around a lot" to be able to satisfy his father's unfulfilled dream, and will he still keep a smile throughout that arduous journey?
