《意隐故事--三柱香》夏意隐

86、谈话进行 今天吃的是

　　今天吃的是一顿大餐，因为摆在餐桌上的除了三人各自的餐食外，还有一头巨大的大象。

　　东方余悠不知道接下来的戏码自己究竟要怎么演或是怎么配合：继续留在这儿当电灯泡来维持谎言的体面，还是找个借口离开给他们空间、但同时彻底戳穿这场合谋的欺骗。

　　最后，她绞尽脑汁终于在头脑风暴中卷出了一个中间点，而这个中间点可以非常完美地规避任何一个二元选择所带来的好处。

　　东方余悠：“Just pretend that I'm not here.（就当我不在这儿。）”

　　虽然这句话实在脑残，不过Izzie和Jayden两个人没有一个在想她。

　　Jayden：“I did a lot of reflection these days and I just want to apologize to you. Whatever I did or said was wrong, and I ask you to give me a second chance so I can make things right.（最近我反省了很多，我只是想和你道歉。我说过的、我做过的都是错误的，我想请求你再给我一次机会，让我可以把一切修正过来。）”

　　Izzie：“What's done is done, there's no way we are going back. I know this is cruel and I understand it’s not easy. It hasn't been easy for me either, but we have to move on. This is the best for both of us. （发生了的就发生了，我们不能回去了。我知道这很残忍，我也理解这并不容易。对我来说也是一样，但是我们需要往前走。这对我们彼此来说都是最好的。 ）”

　　Jayden：“How come it's the best? It sounds more like a hasty decision. We all deserve a second chance. And if we really look back at it, what happened? Nothing really happened right? It was just bickering, couple bickers, but they don't break up.（这怎么就是最好的呢？这听起来更像是一个一气之下的决定。我们都需要一个新的机会。如果我们真的回头看，又发生了什么呢？没有任何事情发生对吗？我们只是拌了嘴，只要是情侣都会拌嘴，但这并不意味着分手。）”

　　Izzie：“It was NOT just bickering.（那不只是拌嘴。）”

　　Jayden：“ I'm sorry I was being paranoid but that's only because I love you too much and I didn't want to lose you. She can testify to that. I was never like that before, I was never the jealous type, but with you I became one. You are like no one else.（对不起我总是疑神疑鬼，但那是因为我太爱你，我不想失去你。她可以作证。我从来没有这样过，我从来不是嫉妒的类型，但是和你在一起我就变成了这样。你和别人不一样。）”

　　东方余悠深呼吸了一口气，好不容易才抑制住内心的愤怒——为什么要带她一嘴？

　　Izzie：“OK, listen, I had no idea I held such a place in your heart. I appreciate it. But it takes two to have a relationship, I'm sorry, but I'm out.（好，听着，我不知道我在你心中竟然占据着这样的地位。我很感激你这样说。但是一段感情需要两个人，对不起，但是我已经不在这段关系里了。）”

　　Jayden：“No, don't be sorry, there's nothing you need to be sorry about. It was all my fault, so all I'm asking right now is another chance. I won't let you down, I'm a different person now. I will love you the way you want to be loved.（不，不要说对不起，你不需要为任何事情道歉。都是我的错，所以我现在只想要一次重新开始的机会。我不会让你失望的，我已经成为了一个完全不同的人。我会以你想要的方式去爱你的。）”

　　Izzie：“No, Jayden, there is no second chance. I've moved on, and so should you. I truly truly wish you the best.（不，Jayden，但是我们没有第二次机会了。我已经向前走了，你也需要这样。我真心真心希望你一切都好。）”

　　说完，Izzie起身要走，但是没有忘记给东方余悠一个下马威。

　　Izzie：“Is that all?（你还有事情吗？）”

　　东方余悠的脸一下子变得火辣发烫，慌忙摇头。

　　东方余悠：“Yeah, thank you.（没有了，谢谢你。）”

　　Izzie：“OK, let me know how much I owe you for the lunch.（好，回头告诉我这顿饭我该付多少钱。）”

　　虽然她没吃什么。

　　这只是Izzie的方式说再也不见：请客是对有来有往的许可，一旦两不相欠就意味着永远不会再见。

　　可谁知，下一秒，Jayden却拦住了Izzie的去路。
