MY COUSIN
LILY IS MY COUSIN.,SHE’S SO YOUNG,ABOUT TWENTIES I THINK.SHE NEVER DRESS IN RAG.IN FACT,DRESSING ALWAYS MEANS A LOT TO HER.CUZ SHE’S BEAUTIFUL AND YOUNG.BUT I DON’T LIKE THOSE THINGS.I THINK IT A WASTE OF TIME.SO I SELDOM FIND THE COMMON TOPIC WITH HER.AND SO,WE DON’T TALK MUCH.
BUT I THINK THERE’S SOME DESIRE INSIDE HER.SOMETHING EMOTIONAL,MAYBE LOVE.EVERY WEEKEND SHE GOES INTO THE KITCHEN.SHE SEEMS TO HAVE LOST HERSELF WHEN SHE’S COOKING HER FAVOURITE DISHES.SHE MAKES US DUMPLINGS,TOMATO SOUP,AND SOME SWEET POTATOES.WHEN WE EAT SHE STARES AT US AND FEELS LIKE ASKING US WHETHER IT’S DELICIOUS OR NOT RIGHT AWAY.AND WE JUST NOD,NO OTHER WORDS SPOKEN.SHE SEEMS A LITTLE DOWN.
I CONSIDER HER COOKING CONDUCT AS A PRACTICE OF HER FUTURE FAMILY.SHE’S ALWAYS DAYDREAMING ABOUT MARRYING A RICH SO THAT SHE COULD LEAVE ALL THE LITTLE SAD THINGS BEHIND,LIKE HER NOISY FAMILY,HER POOR SALARY.AND EVERYTIME SHE COOKS SHE’S IMAGINGING COOKING FOR HER HUSBAND.SHE’S WAITING FOR SOME APPRECIATION.SHE WANTS SOMEONE HIGHLY PRAISES HER BUT NOT JUST GIVE HER A SIMPLE NODDING.
BUT HER BAD TEMPER RUINS HER EVERY TIME.HER BOYFRIENDS ALL LIKES HER SO MUCH AT THE FIRST SIGHT.AND MY COUSIN JUST RAISES UP HER HEAD AND TAKES IT FOR GRANTED.SHE CAN’T BE PATIENT WHEN SHE GOTTO WAIT SOMEONE.AND THEN QUARRELS COME.THE BOY FRIENDS COME AND GO.SHE’S STILL ALONE.THOUGH SHE GOT SUCH A SHINING PAIR OF EYES-----THERE’S ALWAYS FILLED WITH DEPERATE.SHE ‘S JUST LIKE A ROSE WITH THRONE BEING ADOPTED AND GIVEN AWAY.
IF SHE SPENDS LESS TIME ON DRESSING,MORE ON IMPROVING HER TEMPER,HER EYES MIGHT BE FRESE AGAIN.LIKE THE ONES THEY USED TO BE.
