Watermelon 西瓜

 最近,我家长了一棵西瓜,可怜的西瓜似乎厌倦了生长在泥土上的日子了,竟然从墙上扎根。也许是一些蚂蚁把西瓜种子带回它们的窝里,而顽强的西瓜硬硬要继续生活下去,就造出了奇迹。

Recently, a watermelon plant grows from the wall, quite a miracle, the poor thing growing totally out of blue. Perhaps some ants brought the seeds back to their home and it strong-willed watermelon keeps on growing out of the crack in the wall to prove of its existance.

小西瓜树 the early days, just a small plant

自从知道了西瓜的存在,我便开始观察它的成长。一天,长出了同样大小的两粒小西瓜。但,经过了岁月的洗礼后,有一粒西瓜终于撑不下去了,枯死了。


I've been watching over it everyday, watching it growing slowly. One day, the plant started bearing 2 small watermelons. They were of the same size at first, but after quite some time, a very significant difference in size started to show up as the smaller ones started to wither.

剩下的那里西瓜至今依然在那儿,而且还在成长中,现在已经超过了15工分。


The last standing watermelon is still there, it's a lot bigger now, slightly longer than a 15cm ruler.

可爱的西瓜,希望你能够好好地继续成长。加油!

Still wondering how much bigger can it grow, fingers crossed, hoping it would keep on growing till it ripe one day.
