有聲讀物《暮光之城·暮色》第335期:第二十二章 捉迷藏(4)

I pulled the unmarked envelope out of my pocket and set it on top of Alice's black leatherbag. She looked at me.

我把那封尚未署名的信封從錢(qián)包里拿出來(lái)，放到愛(ài)麗絲那只黑色的皮包上。她看著我。

"My letter," I said. She nodded, tucking it under the top flap. He would find it soon enough.

“我的信。”我說(shuō)道。她點(diǎn)了點(diǎn)頭，把那封信收到皮包最外面的夾層里。他很快就會(huì)看到它了。

The minutes passed and Edward's arrival grew closer. It was amazing how every cell in mybody seemed to know he was coming, to long for his coming. That made it very hard. I foundmyself trying to think of excuses to stay, to see him first and then make my escape. But Iknew that was impossible if I was going to have any chance to get away.

時(shí)間一分一秒地過(guò)去，愛(ài)德華的到來(lái)越來(lái)越近了。這實(shí)在是件驚人的事，我體內(nèi)的每一個(gè)細(xì)胞似乎都知道他就要到來(lái)，都渴望著他的到來(lái)。這讓事情變得很棘手。我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己試圖想出留下來(lái)的借口，想要先看他一眼，再脫身而去。但我知道，只要我有任何機(jī)會(huì)脫身，這一切就不可能發(fā)生。

Several times Alice offered to go get breakfast with me. Later, I told her, not yet.

愛(ài)麗絲幾次提出要陪我去吃早餐。再等會(huì)兒，我告訴她，我還不餓。

I stared at the arrival board, watching as flight after flight arrived on time. The flight fromSeattle crept closer to the top of the board.

我盯著到達(dá)航班布告屏，看著一個(gè)又一個(gè)航班準(zhǔn)時(shí)抵達(dá)。從西雅圖飛來(lái)的航班越來(lái)越靠近布告屏的頂端了。

And then, when I had only thirty minutes to make my escape, the numbers changed. Hisplane was ten minutes early. I had no more time.

然后，當(dāng)我還剩下三十分鐘可以脫身的時(shí)候，屏幕上的數(shù)字變了。他的航班提前十分鐘到達(dá)。我沒(méi)時(shí)間了。

"I think I'll eat now," I said quickly.

“我想我現(xiàn)在需要吃點(diǎn)東西了。”我迅速說(shuō)道。

Alice stood. "I'll come with you."

愛(ài)麗絲站起來(lái)。“我和你一起去。”

"Do you mind if Jasper comes instead?" I asked. "I'm feeling a little…" I didn't finish thesentence. My eyes were wild enough to convey what I didn't say.

“你介意讓賈斯帕陪我嗎?”我問(wèn)道。“我覺(jué)得有點(diǎn)……”我沒(méi)把句子說(shuō)完。我眼里的狂亂已足以表達(dá)我沒(méi)有說(shuō)出的一切。

Jasper stood up. Alice's eyes were confused, but I saw to my relief not suspicious.

賈斯帕站了起來(lái)。愛(ài)麗絲的眼里寫(xiě)滿(mǎn)了困惑，但令我寬慰的是，我看到她眼里并沒(méi)有懷疑的痕跡。
