第48章 大声说出我的爱

Say "I Love You"

佚名 / Anonymous

There was once a guy who suffered from cancer, a cancer that can’t be cured. He was 18 years old and he could die anytime. All his life, he was stuck in his house being taken cared by his mother. He never went outside but he was sick of staying home and wanted to go out for once. So he asked his mother and she gave him permission.

He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked. He stopped and went back to look into the store. He saw a beautiful girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight. He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her. He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.

She looked up and asked, “Can I help you?”

She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.

He said, “Uh...Yeah...Umm... I would like to buy a CD.”

He picked one out and gave her money for it.

“Would you like me to wrap it for you?” she asked, smiling her cute smile again.

He nodded and she went to the back. She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him. He took it and walked out of the store.

He went home and from then on, he went to that store every day and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet. He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn’t. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her. So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store as usual. He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn’t looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out...

RRRRRING!!!

One day the phone rang, and the mother picked it up and said, “Hello?” It was the girl!!! The mother started to cry and said, “You don’t know? He passed away yesterday...”

The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy’s mother. Later in the day, the mother went into the boy’s room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet.

She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one. Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do U wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.

The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD... Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do U wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.

Love is... when you’ve had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, “I Love You.”

从前有个小伙子患了无法治愈的癌症,18岁的他随时都面临着死亡的威胁。每天他都待在家里由母亲照顾,从未出过家门,但他实在待烦了,便征得母亲的同意出去转转。

走在大街上,他看到好多商店。当路经一家音像店时,他透过店门向里望了望。他停下脚步,又转身折回这家音像店,一个与他年龄相仿的、漂亮可爱的女孩子引起了他的注意,他对她一见钟情。他打开门,走了进去,看到的没有别的,只有她。女孩坐在柜台旁,他不由自主地走了过去。

女孩抬头问他:“请问,您需要什么?”

她微笑着,他觉得这是他一生中所见到的最迷人的笑容,那一刻,他很想亲吻她。

他吞吞吐吐地说:“嗯……那个……哦……我想买张CD。”

他随便拿了张CD,然后把钱递给了她。

“我给你包起来吧?”女孩儿问,又冲他露出了迷人的微笑。

他点了点头,于是她走到了柜台后面,出来时,把包好的CD递给他。他接过来,走出了商店。

他回家了。自那以后,他每天都要去那家音像店买一张CD,女孩每天都要包好给他。而他每次把CD带回去,然后放到壁橱里。他很害羞,没有勇气约她出去,他真的很想那么做,但怎么也做不到。母亲知道后,鼓励他向她表白。第二天,他终于鼓起勇气,像往常一样走进了那家音像店,买了一张CD,她也像往常一样,到柜台后把CD包起来。他接过CD,趁她不注意时将自己的电话号码放到柜台上,跑了出去……

丁零零!!!

一天,电话响了,母亲接起电话说:“喂,您好!”是那个女孩儿!!! 母亲开始哭泣:“你知道吗?他昨天‘走’ 了……”

电话那端沉默了,只能听到母亲的啜泣声。那天晚些时候,母亲怀念儿子,于是走进了他的房间。她想先看看儿子的衣物,于是打开了壁橱。

一摞摞包好的CD映入母亲的眼帘,这些CD还都没拆开过。母亲感到很吃惊。她拿起一张CD,坐到床边,然后开始拆开包装。里面有一张CD,当她取出CD时,一张小纸条从里边掉了出来。她拾起来,看到上面这样写着:嘿……你好吗?我觉得你真的好可爱,愿意和我一起出去玩吗?爱你的乔斯林。

母亲被深深地感动了,她打开了另一个CD盒……又掉出一张小纸条,上面写着同样的话:嘿……你好吗?我觉得你真的好可爱,愿意和我一起出去玩吗?爱你的乔斯林。

爱就是在你作了巨大的思想斗争之后,最终决定抛开你的自尊,攥紧他(她)的手,然后说出“我爱你”。
