I was sure that I was to be killed. I became terribly nervous. I fumbled in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes, which had escaped their search. I found one and because of my shaking hands, I could barely get it to my lips. But I had no matches, they had taken those.
一想到自己明天就没命了,不禁陷入极端的惶恐。我翻着口袋,看看还没有逃过他们搜查的香烟。我终于找到一支,但我的手紧张得不停发抖,连将烟送进嘴里都成问题, 而我的火柴也在搜身时被拿走了。
I looked through the bars at my jailer. He did not make eye contact with me. I called out to him: Have you got a light? He looked at me, shrugged and came over to light my cigarette.
我透过铁栏望着外面的警卫,他并没有注意到我在看他,我叫了他一声:能跟你借个火吗? 他转头望着我,耸了耸肩,然后走了过来,点燃我的香烟。
As he came close and lit the match, his eyes inadvertently locked with mine. At that moment, I smiled. I dont know why I did that. Perhaps it was nervousness, perhaps it was because, when you get very close, one to another, it is very hard not to smile. In any case, I smiled. In that instant, it was as though a spark jumped across the gap between our two hearts, our two human souls. I know he didnt want to, but my smile leaped through the bars and generated a smile on his lips, too. He lit my cigarette but stayed near, looking at me directly in the eyes and continuing to smile.
