正文 第20章 Waiting Alone For A Lifetime我用一生獨自等待(6)(2 / 3)

You like to travel but always get lost.I need my eyes to take you to the nicest places on earth.Every time you leave the house,you forget your keys.I need my legs to run home and open the door for you.

You never know how to take care of yourself.I need my hands to help you get rid of the pesky white hair you hate so much when you grow old,to trim your nails and to feed you.

So you see,that’s why I cannot pick the flower for you.Until I find someone who loves you more than I do,I will need my body to take care of you.

If you accept my reasons,then open the door and I will be waiting with your favorite muffin.”

With tears streaming from my eyes,I opened the door.And there he was,with an extremely worried look on his face.He still had nothing to say;he just stood there,waving the packet he had in his hand in front ofme.

I knew then that I would never find another man who will love me asmuch as my husband does.

Just because someone does not love you the way you want him to,it doesn’t mean that he does not love you with all he has.

有時候,愛的方式不符合你的期望,並不意味著對方不是全心全意地愛你……

參考翻譯(高昆)

我的丈夫是一名工程師。自我們相識後,他一直是值得我依靠的人。他做事腳踏實地,無論發生什麼事,都一如既往地做好自己的本職工作。

經過三年戀愛和兩年的婚姻生活,我對他感到厭倦了。他是我見過的最不浪漫的人,從不送花給我,也從不給我驚喜,我們的婚姻生活平淡無味。

一段時間後,我終於鼓起勇氣向他提出離婚。他隻是沉默地坐在那裏。我的心涼了,我嫁的人怎麼這樣啊,甚至不會說些挽留的話。過了一會,他說:“我該怎麼做才能讓你改變主意呢?”

“如果我想要長在懸崖峭壁上的一枝花,你也知道去采那花必死無疑,你會去給我采嗎?若你能給我一個滿意的答複,我就留下來。”我冷冷地說。

他滿臉憂愁,說道:“我能明早答複你嗎?”聽到這話,我的心直往下沉。與這樣一個不果斷的人生活在一起不可能有幸福,這點我很清楚。

第二天早上,我醒來時,他已經不在了。客廳裏,一杯熱牛奶下壓著一張字條。看著看著,我的眼睛模糊了。

“親愛的,我現在回答你。如果采那朵花一定會死的話,我決不會去采。

但在你離開之前,我希望你能給我一個機會講明理由。你整天坐在電腦前打字,但最後總會大哭起來,因為你的格式常常亂七八糟。我需要用我的手指為你調整格式,讓你破涕為笑。你喜歡旅遊,但經常迷路。我需要用我的眼睛帶你去世界上最美的地方。你每次出門都會忘帶鑰匙,我需要用我的腿跑回家為你開門。
