我们之间零距离

by 沈雨仙

可恩很讨厌假期的到来，因为爸爸决定在假期的时候对她“大改造”一番，要让个性豪迈的她培养优雅的气质。可恩已过世的妈妈是个优雅和有内涵的人，爸爸希望把可恩改造成妈妈那种类型的人。

爸爸已经为可恩安排好一连串的“节目”：学弹钢琴、学画画、阅读古典文学……可恩对这些一点儿兴趣也没有，可是却不能违抗爸爸的命令。爸爸举止优雅，相当注重仪态，即使在家也穿得整整齐齐。他极力想改变可恩挠头发、咬指甲和摇脚的坏习惯。可恩觉得很沮丧，在爸爸眼中，她由头到脚都不及格。

有一天早晨，爸爸竟然披头散发、衣衫不整地出现在可恩面前，还张大口打哈欠、咬指甲、挠头发、用衣服擦鼻涕……天哪，这些都是他平时最痛恨的不雅动作！爸爸到底怎么了？

Ke En was not looking forward to the impending school holidays. Her father had decided to transform her, from a gregarious girl to one who was feminine and elegant. Her deceased mother was an elegant and cultured lady and her father had hope to transform Ke En to be like her.

Her father had planned a whole range of activities for her: piano and art classes, reading of classicals... Ke En had no interest at all in those but she was unable to defy her father’s orders. Her father himself was also very well-mannered and elegant, always well-dressed, even at home. He wanted Ke En to discard the bad habits of head-scratching, nail-biting and leg-shaking. Ke En felt very depressed as in her father’s eyes, she was a complete failure, from head to toes!

One morning, her father appeared in front of Ke En with a mop of unruly hair and unkempt dressing. He even opened his mouth widely to yawn, bit his nails, scratched his head, rubbed his runny nose with his shirt...Dear god, all the uncouth actions which he had hated previously! What had happened to her father?
