• 2021 年 11 月 4 日，阴沉沉的一天。在披萨店，我没办法像平常一样坐在窗外的桌子吃披萨，因为那里挤满了皮肤黝黑的青少年。于是，我坐在了室内靠窗的位置。我可以看到外面桌子上一个棕色皮肤青少年毛茸茸的手臂。之后，我去了咖啡馆，点了杯我常喝的冰绿茶。在那里，我遇到了一个名叫阿尔玛的菲律宾老朋友，她以前在街角的便利商店工作，现在从事医疗保健行业。
  A grey day it is on the 4th of November of 2021. At the pizzeria, I could not sit eating my pizza at my regular table just outside the window, as a crowd of fresh brown teenagers were eating pizza there. So, I sat inside by the window. I could see the hairy arms of one brown teenager at the table outside. I went then to the cafe to have my usual iced green tea. I saw a longtime Filipino friend named Alma, who worked before at a corner convenience store, but now is in health care.
