Zhou Wu Is Thirty

A repair shop opened in the little town. The owner was called Zhou Wu.

I'm eighteen this year. I like sitting on the steps beside the tracks and looking across the river.

Later, Zhou Wu's shop closed, and I went to school across the river.

At thirty, Zhou Wu is a coward. At thirty, I'm braver than Zhou Wu.
