阿尔法把身体堆积在湖边,闭眼感受着回到星球A所遇见的第一场雨。较小的引力和较大的阻力使得雨滴的平均直径在十厘米左右,它们缓慢从容地下落,有一些会停在阿尔法的手心。雨幕半遮半掩着远处粉黄色的地平线,空气中满是甲烷乙烷的清香。
在地球上的时候,阿尔法总喜欢在港口流连。那里的汽油和腐烂的鱼的气味和星球A的空气很像,能缓解他的一些乡愁。可如今回到了这里,他倒又有些想念地球上炸鸡的香味了。
雨声闷闷地打在他心上。阿尔法收回手,把胳膊融合回身体。不知道贝塔现在在做什么呢?
他摇摇头,把行李留在岸边,独自向湖中游去。
Alpha piles himself up near the lake with his eyes closed, feeling the first rain after returning to Planet A. The raindrops, with average diameters of 10 centimeters, are products of relatively weak gravity and strong air resistance. Calmly they fall, and some choose to stay in Alpha's palm. In a distance behind the gentle curtain of the rain, the peach-colored horizon is hazy. The air is full of fragrances of methane and ethane.
When on Earth, Alpha liked to linger near the ports. The gasoline and rotten fish smell like the air on Planet A, relieving his Nostalgia. But now back here, he misses the aroma of fried chicken on Earth.
The drops beat the muffled drum in his heart. Alpha pulls back his arm into his body - "What is Beta doing right now?"
Shaking his head, Alpha leaves his baggage onshore and swims towards the center of the lake, alone.
