Mr. and Mrs. X that I know

私の知るX夫妻について

(2021)

≫Statement

≫Exhibition

Mr. and Mrs. X, as I knew them, were always calm. At a coffee shop, I heard about the house they live in. They have a sofa, a desk, and a big bathtub, and they usually watch the day's news while eating dinner.

However, I have never been to their house. I don't even know how they spend their time.

 

One of the X's I know used to be named "y". I don't know which one of them changed their name. I heard that the nameplate on their house will soon be changed from x to another name.

 

I have yet to establish a relationship with a husband and wife. I have never been in a relationship with a husband and wife, so maybe those two people I talked to were not a husband and wife. But there are traces of their existence.

The Mr. and Mrs. x I knew were always calm, and I don't know if they really existed.

私の知るX夫妻は、いつも穏やかであった。喫茶店で、彼らの住む家の話を聞いた。ソファに机、大きな浴槽があり、夕飯を食べながらその日のニュースを見るのが日課だという。

しかし私は彼らの家に訪れたことはない。どのように過ごしているかも知らない。

 

私の知るX夫妻のうちの一人は、元はyという名前だった。どちらが名前を変えたのかは知らない。彼らの家の表札は、もうじきxから違う名前に変わるそうだ。

 

私はまだ夫妻という関係を築いたことがない。なので、もしかすると私が話したあの2人は夫妻ではなかったのかもしれない。しかし、彼らのいた痕跡はある。

私が知るx夫妻は、いつも穏やかで、ほんとうに存在していたのかわからない。
