“So, Gu, ”Anda一边用勺子舀着西红柿鸡蛋拌饭,一边冲着顾習之眨眼,“What’s the plan for summer? Any big adventures?”
“Probably just going to visit my uncle for a bit.”
“Sounds good. I’m heading to Italy with my family to celebrate my brother’s graduation.”
Anda举起勺子咂嘴,夸张地说:“Amazing! It’s the best food I’ve ever had. I’m taking this back to Spain with me!”
顾習之扯了扯嘴角:“Thank you.”
见她反应平淡,Anda提议:“You should totally come with me to Providence for his ceremony. It’ll be fun.”
“I don’t know…maybe.”
“Come on, you need to get out more! Some sunshine will do you good, seriously. You gotta let go of the bad vibes. You’re way better than when I first met you, I swear.”
顾習之低头,看着碗里出神。“Yeah, maybe…”
Anda放下勺子,一只手覆上顾習之的手背,很快地念了句西班牙语:“Quien se aferra demasiado al pasado, pierde lo que tiene delante.”
顾習之垂着眼,没说话。
Anda的手收紧了些,注视着她的脸,柔声说道:“Hey, you didn’t do anything wrong, okay? You don’t even know who that was. Forget those ridiculous letters, and cherish the present, alright?”
半晌,顾習之才艰难地点了点头。
“So let’s make some new memories, come with me to Providence, okay?”
