Frank's voice dropped a bit." When the weather was bad he would drive me to school. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy. It was so embarrassing for me. Here I was twelve years old, and my Dad would lean over and kiss me good-bye!"
弗兰克的声音低了一点:“天气不好的时候,爸爸会开车送我们去学校。他会把车停在学校正门口,好像每个人都能站在一旁旁观看。然后,他弯下身子在我脸上重重的亲了一口,告诉我要做一个好孩子。这让我觉得很难为情。那时我已经12岁看,而爸爸还俯身给我一个道别的亲吻。”
He paused and then went on," I remember the day I thought I was too old for a good-bye kiss. When we got the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean toward me, but I put my hand up and said,' No, Dad.' It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way, and he had this surprised looked on his face.
弗兰克停顿了一下,又继续说道:“我还记得那天。我认为自己已经长大到不再合适一个道别亲吻了。当我们到了学校停下来的时候,像往常一样爸爸露出了灿烂的笑容,他开始向我俯下身来,然后我抬手挡住了他,‘不,爸爸。’那是我第一次那样对他说话,他十分吃惊。”
