佩琪渐渐陷入恍惚。潜意识里某种东西让她感到惶恐不安。她整个身体躺了下来,她把头躺在座位上,把毯子将整个身体包括头遮盖起来。感觉到安心一点以后,受伤之后的疲累袭来,她很快就睡着了。
Peggy wasn’t sure what woke her. Had a beam of light shown briefly through the blanket? Did she hear someone curse outside? She strained eyes and ears, but heard nothing save the soft thudding of the rain, and no light shown through the blanket now. If Tommy had arrived with the rescue squad, there surely would be noise and light and many voices. But she heard nothing save the swish of the rain and an occasional thumping noise which she put down to the rubbing of the branches of the pecan tree in the wind. The sound should have been comforting, but it was not. Goosebumps crawled across her arms – even the broken one -- and she almost ceased breathing for some time as some deep part of her inner mind instructed her to freeze and not make a sound.
佩琪也不确定到底是什么将她吵醒,是透过毛毯的光线?还是外面有人在咒骂?她睁大眼睛,伸长耳朵,除了轻轻的雨声,没有其他声响和光线。如果汤米找到救援队,肯定会有各种声响、灯光还有人声嘈杂。但是她只听到雨中飒飒的风声,和偶尔发出的巨大声响,她想应该是山核桃枝干相互摩擦的声音,本来这些声音应该是让人安心的,但是现在看来不是这样。鸡皮疙瘩在她的手臂上蔓延,甚至是那条受伤的手臂。有一会她甚至有意识地摒住呼吸,仿佛是听从她内心深处的指挥,要她一动不动,不做声响。
