Summary
Novak's summer started terribly. It didn't get any better after that. But summer's just a season and the only way to go is up.
(Or: the story of a US Open final that didn't happen in more ways than one, and one (unlikely) explanation for Novak's miserable summer of 2016.)

Summary
'“I am fine,” Novak says immediately, as if he isn't obviously being held upright by the wall alone, as if he doesn't look like he just got served up as dinner for a pack of wolves. His voice still rasps a little. “Andy, it is okay. I need just a moment and I will leave, it is not so bad as it looks.”
It takes a second for Andy to find his voice, a second more to breathe through the rising edge of panic he'd tried so hard to leave behind in Australia. “It looks pretty bad,” he says and has to pause to swallow when his tone pitches too far into shrill. “What the hell happened?”'
Or, the one where Novak is a vampire and Andy should really know better by now.

Summary
标题来自博尔赫斯
亲代篇：鸡豆，费纳，一点点自由心证的单箭头德僵
子代篇：鸡卡
双线并行，每段开头标明时间地点。大纲流，叙述口语，没有文笔可言，24年8月写的，发出来是因为1.我知道自己99%不可能把它完整写完了 2.时间隔了太久，对中间很多人物投射的感情发生了变化，现在的我也并不能写出那时我想写的故事了，不如就把残篇发出来，聊作纪念。
以及需要提醒的是真的很阴间，不适合任何有正常审美情趣的人迷或cp粉阅读。

Summary
“两人契合之极。她表现的就是她本来的样子，一个在一位饱经风霜、对一切司空见惯的可敬男人的引领下，准备好去了解生活的姑娘;而他则有意识地扮演起他原本最怕成为的角色:一位年老的恋人。他从没有把她和费尔明娜·达萨比较过，尽管两人的相似之处一目了然，不止是年龄、校服、发辫和欢快奔放的走路方式，就连那高傲任性的性格都十分相像。更有甚者，曾经爱情于他最大的诱惑便是找到一个费尔明娜·达萨的替代品，可如今这想法竟被彻底地抹掉了。他喜欢她本来的样子，而且最终，他怀着一份人到暮年的狂热欢欣，爱上了她本来的样子。”——马尔克斯《霍乱时期的爱情》
鸡卡附赠费纳汤底，以及如同本文谜底般的另一段往日情怀。大纲流，伪现背，时间线跨越22-24，写于24年奥运网球男单决赛后，代表了我对这四位大哥最纯真最美好的角色理解，现在早已一去不复返。不过这篇里既没人乱伦也没人怀孕，可喜可贺。
