同一支笔(完)【汤姆|梅洛普|母子治愈向】 (第3/7页)
I was…evil. And when I looked at you, I was afraid. I thought, What if you turned out like me? What if I ruined you, too? What if you hated me for what I’d done? Maybe you’d be better off without me. Maybe… if I took myself to the grave, you’d have a chance to be better, to be stronger than I ever was.”(不!我不值得被原谅!我说的话……不是想开脱任何事!我……软弱,我……我邪恶。当我看到你,我……我好怕……我记得我在想:如果你和我一样怎么办?如果我毁了你怎么办?如果你因为我做的事情而恨我怎么办?或许没有我,你会成长得更好。或许……如果我把自己带进坟墓里,你才有机会成长为一个比我更好,更坚强的人。) 汤姆的声音沉得比刚才更低:“You thought leaving me alone in an orphanage would make me stronger? You thought that was love? Do you know the kind of life I had there?”(你以为把我留在孤儿院能让我更好、更坚强?!你以为那就是爱?!你知道我在那里经受了什么吗!?) 梅洛普更加焦急,身体微微向前倾,眼珠急切地打转:“No, Tom! It wasn’t love. It was fear. It was guilt. I was so consumed by what I’d done, by what I was, that I couldn’t see anything else. Not even you.

You should have fought for me.”(你……你就是该再试试的。你就是该为我而战。) 梅洛普垂下目光,轻轻点头:“You are right, my darling. I should have. And I’m so sorry that I didn’t.”(你说的对,我的宝贝。我本该再试试的。我
