It happened at a few minutes past 0 o’clock today. I fell asleep at eleven these days, but I had the dharma course at the temple yesterday, and went home late, and slept late, so I could answer the call at 0, or I might have turned off the phone.
It really astounded me that the call was from my ex-manager. I answered the call soon because I was afraid the ring woke up my roommate.
She was crying! She said she was in the railway station and wanted to take the train to Guangzhou but it was too late for the last train, so she wanted to go to my home and slept for one night. Why not go she own home? –But I didn’t ask. I accepted that and asked her to take taxi here.
Changed my clothes, took the lift down. I have never been outside this late. The wind was a little cold. Later she appeared, not crying but I saw some tear. I took her home because she wanted to go toilet. After that, I said my bed was small and upper, so it was better for her to go to hotel. She agreed.
The first hotel we asked was full, the second I wanted to take her to was a little far away and she didn’t want. So we had to go the the hotel just in the building I live. I asked the price some days ago for another friend who might come to shenzhen, so I knew the price was a little high, so we didn’t ask it first. But she was willing to spend that money.
The problem was she didn’t take the ID card, without which she could not check in the hotel. I asked could it just use my ID card. The lady said no. Later she asked if I had the ID card with me. I said mine was upstairs in the building. She said oh you were the resident, so we could give you an exception. Then I took my ID card, and she checked in and stayed for one night.
This morning she called me, she took back the clothes which she took to my home to wash. Then she said she went home and tidied, then went back to her hometown, might not come here for a long time.
I still didn’t ask what happened…
