Five months after the funeral, I lifted myself up out a bed. I put on my white uniform and put my little gold cross back around my neck and I went to wait on Miss Leefolt cause she just have her baby girl. But it weren't too long before I seen something in me had changed. A bitter seed was planted inside a me. And I just didn't feel so accepting anymore.
葬礼之后又过了五个月,我起身下床。我穿上白色制服,又把小小的金十字架戴回脖子上,随后前去服侍李弗特小姐,她刚生下个女娃。但没过多久我便发现我的心已不复从前。苦涩的种子在我体内悄然埋下,我不再那么容易敞开胸怀了。
"GET THE HOUSE straightened up and then go on and fix some of that chicken salad now," say Miss Leefolt.
"把屋子规整规整,再去把鸡肉沙拉准备好。"李弗特太太呼喝着。
It's bridge club day. Every fourth Wednesday a the month. A course I already got everthing ready to go—made the chicken salad this morning, ironed the tablecloths yesterday. Miss Leefolt seen me at it too. She ain't but twenty-three years old and she like hearing herself tell me what to do.
每个月的第四个礼拜三是她们的桥牌聚会日。我已经将里里外外拾掇停当——一大早做好了鸡肉沙拉,桌布也在昨天熨烫平整。李弗特太太亲眼瞧着我做完这些。她不过才二十三岁,却很喜欢对我指手画脚,差使我做这干那。
