My eye fell on a blank page of the hotel stationery on the desk. I went to it slowly, a planforming. There was an envelope there, too. That was good.
我的目光落到桌子上那疊賓館信紙最上面的一頁(yè)白紙。我慢慢地走過(guò)去,一個(gè)計(jì)劃在我腦海里成形了。同樣,一封信的腹稿也成形了。好極了。
"Alice," I asked slowly, without turning, keeping my voice level. "If I write a letter for mymother, would you give it to her? Leave it at the house, I mean."
“愛(ài)麗絲,”我慢吞吞地說(shuō)道,沒(méi)有回頭,依然讓自己的聲音波瀾不興。“如果我給我媽媽寫(xiě)封信,你能把信給她嗎?我是說(shuō),把它留在屋子里。”
"Sure, Bella." Her voice was careful. She could see me coming apart at the seams. I had to keepmy emotions under better control.
“當(dāng)然,貝拉。”她的聲音顯得很謹(jǐn)慎。她看到出我在細(xì)微之處的破綻。我得更好地控制住自己的情緒。
I went into the bedroom again, and knelt next to the little bedside table to write.
我又走回了臥室,跪在那張小小的床頭幾前,開(kāi)始寫(xiě)信。
"Edward," I wrote. My hand was shaking, the letters were hardly legible.
“愛(ài)德華,”我寫(xiě)道。我的手在顫抖,筆下的那些字母簡(jiǎn)直難以讓人辨認(rèn)。
I love you. I am so sorry. He has my mom, and I have to try. I know it may not work. I am sovery, very sorry.
“我愛(ài)你。對(duì)不起。他抓住了我母親,我只能放手一搏。我知道這可能沒(méi)用。我非常,非常地抱歉。
Don't be angry with Alice and Jasper. If I get away from them it will be a miracle. Tell themthank you for me. Alice especially, please.
別生愛(ài)麗絲和賈斯帕的氣。如果我能從他們身旁逃開(kāi),這絕對(duì)是個(gè)奇跡。替我感謝他們。尤其是愛(ài)麗絲。求你了。
And please, please, don't come after him. That's what he wants. I think. I can't bear it if anyonehas to be hurt because of me, especially you. Please, this is the only thing I can ask you now.For me.
還有,千萬(wàn),千萬(wàn),不要跟著他。這正是他想要的。我是這樣認(rèn)為的。我再也承受不了有任何人因?yàn)槲叶艿絺α?,尤其是你。求你了,這是我現(xiàn)在唯一能向你要求的事。就當(dāng)是為了我。
I love you. Forgive me.
我愛(ài)你。原諒我。
Bella, I folded the letter carefully, and sealed it in the envelope. Eventually he would find it. Ionly hoped he would understand, and listen to me just this once.
貝拉, 我小心地折起那封信,然后把它塞進(jìn)信封里。他終有一日會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)的。我只希望他能理解,并且能聽(tīng)我的話(huà),哪怕就這一次。
