「叮叮叮…」 「您好請問…」 「這裡是…」 「前台嗎,幫我…」 「叮叮叮…」 「喂,這裡是鄭妍工作室,請問…」 「你好,我找張爾…」 「那下午三點好嗎?…」 「欸好,感謝來電…」 無處不在的電話對話讓汝矣島上的大陽大楼變成了一個巨大的鳥籠,嘰嘰喳喳的是一群鮮豔的鳥兒。

“Ding Ding Ding” “Hello, this is…” “Room 206?” “..Could you help me?…” “Ding Ding Ding” “Zhen’s Art Studio, hold on please…” “Ah, I am looking for Mr.Zhang…” “Then, how about 3pm?…” “right, thanks for calling…” Phone rings everywhere, phone conversations everywhere, the Dayang Mansion in Yeouido Island is like a big birdcage, all these beautiful sparrows are twittering around.

週二的汝矣島和週一不一樣,週二的陽光更濃烈些,藍天也是,非常的藍,漂浮不動的白雲也很厚實,像一顆吃不到的棉花糖。不知到什麼原因,週二的汝矣島上不會飛過一隻鳥,只有邊上的漢江水變得很洶湧,一層一層的浪前仆後繼的撲向島的岸邊。靜止的天,躁動的水,還有島上嘈雜的鳥籠就是星期二的汝矣島。

Unlike Monday’s Yeouido Island, Tuesday’s Yeouido the sun is brighter, and there are more blues to the sky, there are more big clouds float steadily, which like marshmallows no one can eat. For some unknown reasons, there are not even a sight of birds flying passing by Yeouido Island, whereas the water from the Han river is more violent, wave after waves hit the shoreside of Yeouido Island. So, that’s it, quiet the sky is, but restless the Han river water is, and the all-day nosily birdcages like the Dayang Mansion, make up a Tuesday’s Yeouido Island.

快到中午12點的時候,夏哲宇來到汝矣島,他為此還放棄了在家做午飯早因為要趕上1號線的速達專線,從兩個月前來,夏哲宇就在在汝矣島上的大陽大樓上班,大陽大樓的負三層到一層是一座商場,他最新兼職的行銷專員職位就在這裡負1樓的門店,每週四次班,下午一點到晚上九點。中午的汝矣島,動動棟棟大樓都安靜了許多,各路公司職員都在12點開始有一個小時的午餐時間,平地一樓一瞬間就聚滿了人群。

Near 12pm, Shia Tshyu came to Yeouido Island, becasue he rushed to catach the Line1 Express train, he had to give up lauch at home. It’s been two months since Shia Tshyu found his part-time job in the Dayang Mansion Mall in Yeouido Island, and he works as a sales associate. The Dayang Mansion Mall has three floors below the surface, Shia Tshyu works in the B1 Floor, and there are one floor above, one floor below. Four days per week, from 1pm to 9pm, that’s Shia Tshyu’s job. 12pm is noon lunch break, the buildings are getting quiet down, whereas the first floors are flooded by people coming for food or rest.

和衣著精緻的女人們不一樣,夏哲宇是穿著他的便服來的,上週Lacoste打折,他買到了一件橙色條紋的T恤,只是因為是加大號的,穿在身上有一點點鬆鬆垮垮。和西裝革履的男人也不一樣,夏哲宇也只套了一雙帆布鞋。穿行在白色襯衣和藍色西裝的世界裡,一個鬆垮的橙色有點格格不入,即使夏哲宇覺得今天的穿著無比自在,他瘦高的身體還能在衣著靈活的擺動,他走起路來,寬鬆的褲子也能營造出那種匆匆忙忙的飄飄感,他現在穿越在人群之中也感覺到一種無形的不自在,手腳都無處安放一樣。不過幸好,根本不會有人在意他。

Unlike women who dressed delicately for work, Shia Tshyu wore an oversized orange strip T-shirt, which he got from Lacoste when it was on sale last week. The T-shirt is quite big that gave him spacious room to move his body inside, but also from the outside, the T-shirt on him is a bit too lose. Unlike men with suit and tie, Shia Tshyu wore a pair of light canvas sneakers to work, of course he will get changed later, but his very entrance is so different in Yeouido Island. He felt a bit uncomfortable, like a sort of unnamed stress he got. Fortunately, no one is paying any attention at him.

往常的夏哲宇有個不可告人的秘密,就是他吃完午飯後一定會要上大號。而十二點中要在一樓的汝矣島上找到一個廁所,就和要找一家好吃的餐廳吃飯一樣,都得排隊。夏哲宇高中的時候就發現了另外一個秘密,一般老師們呆的樓層廁所都很空閒,也打掃得乾淨。他靈機一動,何不直接上樓找找廁所好呢?來大陽大樓兼職已經兩個月了,還沒有上過這棟大樓呢。”那就上55層吧,我要轟炸汝矣島!“夏哲宇心裡想到。

Shia Tshyu has a secret, but no shame though, he needs to use the toilet every time after lunch. Meanwhile, to find a toilet in the first floor of Dayang Masion’s, it’s like finding a tasty restaurant here — that is all too easy to find, but you need to queue up. Shia Tshyu realized a trick when he was in high school, normally, the floors where all teachers are, the bathroom is also more spacious, and cleaner. “Why not go to higher floors, I am gonna drop bomb to Yeouido!” Shia Tshyu says to himself.

臆想之間 ”Ding 55層到了,” 電梯說到。聲音甚至有點震耳欲聾,因為此時的55層真的非常安靜。55層是到處被紫色裂紋的白色牆壁圍起來的空間,環繞四周是一圈藍色的透明落地玻璃窗,這一層給人的感覺就像是一顆包裝在保鮮盒裡的洋蔥。夏哲宇望出窗外,此刻的他就像是漂浮在高空的空氣裡,看著一樓外的人群像螞蟻一般的大小,汝矣島安靜的躺在藍色的地球上,任由漢江的澎湃的波濤拍打著。這一刻的景色和氣氛令人屏息,他能聽到他的心跳,感受到他身體的溫度,不過好在夏哲宇還有內急,他馬上回過神來得去找廁所了。

While Shia Tshyu was feeling excited, the elevator says “Ding, 55 floor arrived.” The elevator has a very loud mechanical female voice, it is very loud or the vibe in 55 floor made it sounded very loud. 55 floor now is very very silent, this floor is constructed by white walls with purple grains, and peripheral blue colored glass window. It’s just like an onion in a Lock&Lock box. Shia Tshyu look into the outside through the blue glass window as if he is floating on the air, mens downstairs looked tiny, and Yeouido Island lying quietly on the blue earth, and the Han-river water surging forward. It’s totally a breath-taking moment, Shia Tshyu can listen to his heartbeats, and feel his body temperature. Still, the moment didn’t last, Shia Tshyu also felt the urge to go to the bathroom as his stomach is telling.

夏哲宇看著電梯口的平面圖,然後左轉右轉的找到了廁所,一間標準的男廁所,可是在這高空之中略顯壓抑。“可能是因為氣壓吧。“夏哲宇心想到。馬上找到一個隔間坐在馬桶上。神奇的是這間廁所的門是單向透明的,一邊一瀉千里還能看到源源滚动的江水袭来。夏哲宇正在享受這心曠神怡的時刻,應該沒有什麼能比這次大號經歷更難忘了。

Followed by the floor map, Shia Tshyu found the men’s bathroom. Avery standard professional men’s bathroom, but the atmosphere is a bit too tight probably because of the altitude. Shia Tshyu found a section and sit on the toilet. He got amazed again because the bathroom door is like a One-way mirror, while Shia Tshyu is releasing whatever comes out of his body, he can still enjoy the stunning scenery. How unforgettable!

“啊…嗯..“ ”“啊…嗯..啊.” 一個男人在呻吟著,還有匡匡噹噹的皮帶扣碰撞的聲音,匡匡噹噹,嗯嗯啊啊,均勻又快速。“咚咚…咚咚..”連隔間的門板也偶爾被碰撞到。夏哲宇驚了,他沒想到原來旁邊的隔間有一個人。聽聲音應該是普通職員年紀的一個男人,那男人低聲的呻吟著,偶爾還說出幾句呢喃的話語。男人呼吸急促,而且越來越急促緊迫,他彷彿很痛苦般的,他的身體在晃動。夏哲宇透過地上的縫隙的投影呆滯在這一刻,夏哲宇很快就明白,男人正在隱密的著發洩慾望。地上的投影照射出一個高大健碩的男子,似乎有鍛鍊過,肌肉的線條非常的清晰柔美和高空中俯瞰下去的蜿蜒的漢江一樣。這個男子的左手握住他的身下,隱約之間夏哲宇也能看見他勃起的男性器官的投影,男子的右手似乎於左手對著,彎到了腰的後方,伸進了一處柔軟的洞穴。“啊…嗯..” “啊…嗯..啊.” 男子努力抑制他的呻吟可是越發的明顯,他的呼吸越來越急促,他的投影在地上瘋狂的抽動,終於在一瞬間,他大吼出聲“嗯..啊..啊..啊。”

“Ah… em..” “Ah… em..eemm..” a men’s groan raises, and also there are belt buckles’ sound hitting each other. The men’s groan and the buckles clash sound stayed in a fast but regular pattern, some times the door’s shake sound will add a few more beats. Shia Tshyu got quite a startle, he never thought there are a man next to him who is also using the bathroom, but perhaps in a different way. From the groan sound Shia Tshyu guess it must be a young worker in this building, or maybe right in 55 floor. The men continued his moan, and his breath gets tighter as if he is experiencing lots of pain. The man’s body shakes as his shadow being projected to the floor so Shia Tshyu can see clearly the men’s shape, also what he is doing. The man has a tall and well-build figure, his muscle lines are like the Han-river. The men uses his left hands on his private part front, up and down moving, faster and faster, while the man’s right hand twisted to the back of his body, and seemly is poking into another mysterious area of the body. “Ah… em..” “Ah… em..eemm..” louder and louder, the man breathes heavily, and finally in one moment, he roars “Ah… em..”

”答..答..答..“ 像是什麼東西迅速墜下地面,幾股衝擊之後,空氣突然凝固。男人抽動隔間的紙盒,拿出一些紙巾,沖下馬桶,他走出隔間。在男人走出來的時候,夏哲宇瞥見了男人的身影,一個和所有人一樣的,皮鞋鋥亮的職員,他應該在55層的某間隔間裡工作,就和在這廁所的隔間一樣。男人飛快的走過,用水和肥皂仔細地洗了手。夏哲宇這時也出來了,小心的片頭看向男子,夏哲宇佯裝的洗手,那男人在他的旁邊整理自己的衣襟和面容,像是什麼都沒有發生一樣男人對著夏哲宇露出他專業的微笑然後男人推門離去。夏哲宇注意到雖然男人的臉上雖然泛起了微微的紅色,但是已經在褪去。夏哲宇關掉水龍頭。一切又是那麼安靜,一樓外的人群像螞蟻一般的大小,藍色的地球上躺著安靜的汝矣島,只是這時一隻鳥飛過,跟隨著鳥兒的還有波濤洶湧的漢江水。

Quietness followed regardless of what was happening, so quiet as if the air freezes. Then the men flashed some toliet paper, he walked out of the compartment next to Shia Tshyu’s. Shia Tshyu sees the man’s look when he walked out, like everyone else here, the man is suit and tie. The men walked to the sink area to wash his hands, and Shia Tshyu also come out. Shia Tshyu carefully looked at the man, but the man found out he is looking, the man responded a professional smile. Very polite, kind, sincere but not really a warm smile. Shia Tshyu noticed that the man had blush on his face but it is fading. The man left, Shia Tshyu also finished washing hands. It is quiet again, Tuesday’s Yeouido Island lies on the blue earth, the sun is so bright, the sky is so blue, the cloud is so steady. But there comes a bird swiftly flies over Yeouido Island, followed is the restless the Han river water.
