One day, Kyoko suddenly thought of her husband hand-mirror according to your own garden. For the husband has been sick in bed for even that little bit of little things, is equivalent to opening up a new life, so must not be said to be "a little bit of small things."
　　This hand mirror surface is the mirror stage Kyoko dowry with things. Dresser was not much, but with mulberry wood; hand mirror to children, but also mulberry wood. I remember the wedding day, once, in order to see the brain behind the hair, hand mirror and Mirror front view, the cuff child slipped over the elbow of the child, the smell of urine Kyoko incredibly, that is the side hand Mirror ah.
　　Also remember that in the new Rockwell, the husband grabbed the hand mirror and said: "Oh, you are more stupid Yeah, let me give you take it." Then, from various angles, for children Kyoko mapped to the Mirror after the neck up, and he is cited as a supreme pleasure seems like. It seems, from the Mirror in the past sometimes found things had not found it. In fact, Kyoko true that stupid, just behind her husband watched intently, making her movements inevitably unnatural up nothing.
　　Since then, the time and not too long, and that hand mirror on the mulberry trees are not the children color, however, is war, but also a refuge, but also her husband was seriously ill, until the first thought of Kyoko hand mirror to garden photos to her husband at the time, hand mirror has cast a shadow of the surface, the mirror edges of the powder at the end and let the dust soiled. Of course, according to people is nothing wrong. Does not pay attention to these Kyoko, but there is no spirit of attention to this anymore. Anyway, since then, her husband no longer refuse to allow the mirror to hand, because disease-specific patient boredom and neurotic, mirror and frame children are her husband wiping clean. The shadow of the mirror, that has not already had, but Kyoko also continue to see her husband again and again Oh Oh, rub and scrub. Sometimes, Kyoko want: easy to see in that eye, and covered with a narrow mirror every child, the lungs must be full of bacteria it. Sometimes, Kyoko something to her husband's hair painted camellia oil, comb a comb, her husband immediately rub the oil on this issue, using it to smear the mulberry wood-framed hand mirror children. Mirror stage mulberry child seat, dim light to no glory, but the mulberry wood hand mirror to children, it was crystal light shine.
　　Kyoko Mirror remarried with this aircraft.
　　However, that hand mirror surface into her husband's coffin was burnt up. Added a new side mirror stage "Kamakura Lacquer" hand mirror. She did not tell her these things to remarry her husband. Ex-husband has just one die, immediately follow the old rules, placed his hands together and cross fingers to buckle, so that encoffining later, can not let him hand it hand side mirror, mirror the results had to handle placed on the deceased's chest.
　　"You always said living chest pain, you even put this on the side of hand-mirror, I am afraid you are too heavy, right!" Said Kyoko murmured, her husband's hand mirror to move up the abdomen. Kyoko think that hand mirror is both the most important things in life, so her husband started to put it on the chest. When her hand into the coffin when the mirror is to find ways to avoid the eyes of her husband's parents, brothers, in the hand mirror to put on a bunch of white chrysanthemums, so no one noticed this side hand mirror. Exhumation of the collection, because of cremation temperatures, melting the glass mirror deformation, uneven surface, to muster the middle of a thick, color is black and one yellow piece. Was seen, and said:
　　"This is the glass it, it turned out to be about?"
　　Kyoko original mirror above the hand, but also put a smaller side of the mirror, that is to carry with dressing mirror in a small narrow rectangle. Kyoko had dreamed of when to use it in the honeymoon, but in wartime, it is impossible to do honeymoon. So ex-husband during his lifetime, not once used it.
　　Kyoko and her husband to a second honeymoon. Carry with her former dressing, leather children mildew, and bought a new one. Nature has a mirror inside.
　　The first day of honeymoon, her husband stroked Kyoko's hand and said: "It's pathetic, just like a girl!" This is by no means mocking tone, but contains an indescribable pleasure. The second husband, also Xu Jingzi closer the better it was a virgin, but Kyoko heard him this short, then a sudden burst of intense grief poured out, as this indescribable grief, she looked down a long while silent, Zhu Lei Ying Ying. Maybe her husband that this is a near-virgin behavior.
　　Kyoko himself does not know in the end it is their cry, or cry dead husband, but also really difficult to distinguish. When she realized this, she felt so sorry new husband, and he should be more gentle treatment of him is ah.
　　"Not the same ah, how bad it was so far away?" Later, Kyoko said so. But finished, she felt this does not fit, could not help but face Fei. Her husband seems like a very happy, said: "And you have not had a baby, right?" The statement has touched a raw nerve Kyoko.
　　Acceptance and ex-husband is completely different to another man's touch, so be playing Kyoko felt a similar humiliation. She seemed interested only answered a similar revolt: "But, look at a patient and the care of children is also similar."
　　Long-term sick ex-husband is dead, Kyoko also feel like the arms of her children.
　　She thought: had known him Feisibuke, strict abstinence, what use it.
　　"Forest Town, from the past I just seen the train windows children ..." the new home of Mufti's name from Kyoko, Kyoko floor again recently, "really real, like in the forest surrounding a beautiful town. How long you stayed at home ah? "
　　"Until women graduated from high school, when the military was mobilized to the three factories to work ..." Kyoko said.
　　"Yes ah, your home away from three very close. Everyone says that after three of the more beautiful, no wonder so Kyoko delicate skin of the body."
　　"Does not tender it!" Kyoko put his hand on the collar of the place, say so.
　　"Because of your hands and feet are very delicate, so I think the body must also be delicate."
　　"No!" Kyoko was not on hand on the chest where they quietly move away the hand.
　　"Even if you have children, I will marry you. Can lead to the child, to care a good thing if a girl, so much the better friends." Kyoko's husband in the ear whispered. Maybe her husband own a boy. So it just say so. But as a confession of love, words that sound that is very awkward Kyoko. Why Kyoko and her husband to do this as long as ten days honeymoon it? May consider the home with children, she was so considerate it.
　　Husband has a very fine leather carry-dressing, it's Kyoko compared, much stronger, large and strong, but not new. I do not know because her husband often go on a trip, or continue to tidy up the reason, it made a long time with the unique light. This makes Kyoko thought of my own that time have never been used, moldy old dressing badly. However, where the edge of a small mirror to her ex-husband finally took to him to go to another world.
　　I placed a small hand mirror on the glass of the burnt, sticky hand mirror glass up. In addition to other Kyoko, who also turned out to be impossible to know both sides and a small mirror. Kyoko has not talked to whom the strange child was originally a group of glass mirror, it is difficult to imagine the presence of relatives would can guess.
　　However, Kyoko did feel that both sides of the mirror over the map of many of the world seems to have been burnt to the relentless. As her husband's body was reduced to ashes, like many of the world that no longer exists. Initially, Kyoko is Dresser with mirror hand side of the garden that according to her husband to see, since her husband no longer refuse to hand so that the side mirror off hand, but the hand seems to mirror the patient is also too heavy, Kyoko must protect the her husband's arms and shoulders, very light weight so again the small side mirror showed her husband.
　　Her husband died, the two mirrors in the house map of the world not only Kyoko's garden. It is mapped across the sky, clouds and snow, over the distant mountains map, near the woods, but also mapped over the moon, but also use it to read the wildflowers and birds. Sometimes in the mirror on the roads, sometimes the children's garden in the mirror play.
　　"In the mirror, made of silver shining sky," Kyoko said. She looked up at the window, "but the sky is overcast!"
　　Is also in the mirror and see that the gloomy cloudy sky. The sky is really shining.
　　"Because you are too bright mirror polished it."
　　Although bedridden husband, but turned about the neck, the sky is visible.
　　"Yes ah, really overcast. However, the employer's eyes, the sky, say, as well as with the dog, sparrow's eye view of the sky, not necessarily the same bar. It is difficult to say who is in the eye was right. "her husband replied.
　　"In the mirror inside, there may be a called a 'mirror of the eyes', right?" Kyoko wanted coupled with a "that is, we both love the eye Yeah."
　　Woods to the mirror, it becomes verdant, white lilies to the mirror, and become more beautiful than cute.
　　"This is the fingerprint does Kyoko thumb, right hand ..." referring to her husband the edges of the mirror to see Kyoko, Kyoko somehow taken aback, and immediately on the mirror Oh breath, wipe the fingerprints out.
　　"There is no relationship, thou me according to the vegetable garden the first time, the mirror also have your fingerprints on it."
　　"I did not notice can be a little bit."
　　"I think I'm sure you did not notice, thanks to this mirror, I put your thumb and middle finger fingerprint all remember. Be able to remember his wife's fingerprints clearly, I am afraid that in addition to the patient in bed than is absolutely could not do it. "
　　In the highlands husband rented a small house, start a resort life. The house was originally home to a refuge down to the village people, the war was over, they went back to Tokyo. Kyoko asylum seekers under the vegetable garden planted, but that is full of weeds in the garden where students opened up a small piece of land fills twenty feet square.
　　Moved to bring a plateau in mid-September, the summer people have gone back to the city, early autumn season, rolling off the autumn Zhejiang and Zhejiang Lili to non-stop also clamped very hot chill. One day, the evening before the sky suddenly cleared, you can hear the loud cry of birds. Kyoko came to the garden when the when the bright sun shines on the green vegetables, and sparkling. Emerge in the mountains of the sky with pink clouds, so Kyoko see God. At that time, Kyoko hear her husband's voice calling, too late to wash her hands of the soil, it quickly went upstairs, saw her husband being there, painfully gasped.
　　"How do you hear calling you ah!"
　　"I'm sorry, did not hear."
　　"Do not engage in vegetable matter, so if the call on the five days the people to shout died. To say the least, you are doing there in the end, I do not know ah."
　　"I do in the garden, but you worry, dishes not to engage her."
　　Calm down her husband, said:
　　"You hear the chickadee call it?"
　　Kyoko shouted her husband, but for this sentence. At the moment this sentence the husband asked, still near the woods tits shouted it. Patch of woods at sun_set_ reflection, outline very clear. Kyoko tits began to learn the song.
　　"If you have a hand bell shook like the sound of things, it is easy to friends in to buy before the bell, put on your pillow the same thing can be thrown downstairs, you see how?"
　　"From the second floor, threw down their jobs? This Daoting interesting."
　　Result, the husband or agreed Kyoko Cook kinds go on as usual. When Kyoko think hand mirror to see the vegetable garden according to her husband when it is cold and spent the highlands, a long winter, early spring after the advent of things.
　　Although only the mirror watching, but enough to make the patient feel a new joy in the green world wake up. Kyoko catch insects in the farm, of course, is such a small insect to go to a mirror shine, Kyoko had to get it upstairs to see her husband. Sometimes, Kyoko is digging, the husband said:
　　"You can see the earthworms do the mirror."
　　When the sun shines when the stay in the farm's whole body suddenly brightly lit Kyoko, Kyoko looked up and looked upstairs, had her husband is using a mirror reflection. Kyoko husband let his students to wear during the dark blue pattern to white homespun clothing pieces and converted into a beam pants, he saw in the mirror beam Kyoko wearing pants in this running around tending to the farm was very pleased.
　　Kyoko is the mirror that her husband looked at his, her half of the constant awareness of this, like half and forget about everything working with the vegetable garden. She indulged in bliss, she wanted it and the wedding scene at the time compared to how much change the, ah, then, to look in the mirror, a sleeve over the elbow, and she felt incredibly ashamed of.
　　However, although with two mirrors together with care, carefully make-up, but after all the time shortly after the defeat, where Xianxin Cafen rouge wiping it. Later is to take care of the patient, but also to her husband in mourning, but also impossible. So really put on make-up, or married for the future. Kyoko himself feel of makeup to play, it is more beautiful. She gradually felt, and a second honeymoon to the first day of her husband, her husband said her skin delicate, that it is the truth.
　　In the dead ex-husband's mirror, map out their own Ziying, own the farm running around tending to the Ziying, as well as mapped out in that mirror, such as the Southern house Bupleurum friends, friends indigo, white lily take you, there was playing in the fields of groups of Cuntong, that from the distant snow-capped mountains rising sun on top of all this, it's another world to share with her ex-husband, have to miss Kyoko feel - not am looking forward to. Kyoko thought now her husband, she is increasingly clear that as far as possible their own and strong feelings of longing restrained as much as possible to put it in God's world as a distant viewing.
　　A morning in May, Kyoko heard from the radio sound of wild birds crows. It is present to record the mountains, the plateau from the ex-husband lived during his lifetime is not too far away. Kyoko RBI to go to work now, after her husband took out a hand mirror to mirror map Taichung blue skies. Then she looked again and from the hand mirror in his face. Kyoko found a strange thing; according to their face without a mirror to see. Except their face is their own invisible. To reflect their own face in the mirror as their own things to see with the naked eye, pick up photo of miles every day. Kyoko into a burst of meditation: God, man can not see the mess his own eyelid, where the edge of profound meaning exactly what it contains.
　　"If they see their face, it will make people mad? Will make nothing do not go dry?"
　　But Kyoko thought: I'm afraid because the evolution of man, to make people see his face gradually bar. If dragonflies or praying mantis, maybe you can see their face.
　　And face their most crucial, has become for others to see things. This is, perhaps very similar and love it.
　　"Do you want me to see nothing? I live in my time, I love to see some of the things ah!" Her husband said.
　　Maybe her husband in order to make the mirror of the world exist, but sacrificed his own life bar. Showers after the husband had to use a mirror that reflected in the garden according to water in the moon, enjoy this kind of moonlight, when the moon should be said that the shadow on the shadow of the moon. Circumstances at the time, that is, today, is still clearly remain in Kyoko's heart. After the husband of Kyoko said: "The sound of love, resides only among healthy people." Of course, Kyoko had nodded shyly, in fact, but my mind was some disagree. Her husband had just died, Kyoko thought, and bedridden husband to maintain a strict ascetic life, what with it. But after a few days later, this ascetic life has become a lingering emotions, recalling the scene every time, it was one filled with love, Kyoko has not regretted. At this point, after the woman's husband is not to oversimplify love it? Kyoko asked after the husband: "You are a very gentle person, but why divorced it?" My husband did not answer. Kyoko is due to constantly advised her ex-husband's brother married, and why they married after the husband. Marriage between two people for four months. They age difference of 15 years old.
　　When Kyoko know she was pregnant, her children are terrified that even looks like some changes.
　　"Kyoko, the courage to believe that the belly of a small life bar." Kyoko shook her husband's shoulder, said.
　　Doctors think that should be admitted to hospital. Kyoko initially refused, but finally was persuaded.
　　"If you want admission, then the pre-admission, give me two or three days work, let me Huitang maiden it." Kyoko said.
　　Former house is now home to people. Upstairs windows hung with white curtains. Kyoko stood far looked at, whispered to himself: "If the child was born, like you, how do ah!" Kyoko suddenly have to tell even her own surprise, then, then wallow in the warm, calm feelings in, went back the original way.
