It was close to midnight when they met in the mist of a cool winter night, surrounded by trees of moderate height that provided some cover He told her he had brought a mixture of hot coffee and spirits to warm them up, and a modest amount of food in case they became hungry She looked at him with moist eyes and said, “Mister, you have misunderstood my messages and will have to modify your intentions, or else Ill become mobile in a matter of minutes”
He was surprised at this outburst and wondered what she meant Was there mold on his stale bread? Was it the spirits in the drink?
So he said, “I see you are in a complaining mode tonight, and that it is not tears, but the night air that has covered your face with moisture But I still dont know what you want me to moderate”
She replied by taking out her mobile, and being what she thought was like a moderate, said in a trembling voice, “I thought wed agreed you were going to give up coffee If you dont pour it out now Ill mold your face with this phone and your glasses will mist up through the tears of your pain”Just then it started to rain, so they stood under his umbrella and talked about the weather instead
将近午夜时分他们在凉爽冬夜的薄雾中相会了,周围一些中等高度的树为他们提供了掩护。他告诉她,他带了一些烈酒和热咖啡掺在一起的混合物,好让他们暖和起来,还有数量不太多的食物,以免饿着。她用湿润的眼睛看着他说:“先生,您误解了我的意思,看来您得修改您的意图,否则我会在几分钟之内就会易变起来。”
这番话让他吃了一惊,他弄不懂她的意思是什么。是不是不新鲜的面包上长了霉?还是因为饮料中含有烈酒?
于是他说道:“我看你今晚的风格是有些抱怨,你脸上不是眼泪,而是夜里空气中的湿气。可我还是不明白你想让我减弱什么。”
她拿出移动电话,装出她所认为的温和的样子,用颤抖的声音说:“我想我们已经达到共识,你会戒掉咖啡,如果你现在不把咖啡倒掉,我就用这手机塑造你的脸,而你痛苦的眼泪将会使你的眼镜变得模糊。”就在这时下起雨来,于是他们站在他的伞下并把话题转移到了天气上面。
