It was a very emotional time for me—my son was about to leave for basic training. My son likes to pass himself off as a tough guy, but as we climbed into the car, he blurted out in a halting, sad voice, “I'm going to miss you.” Well, I just about lost it. The tears flowed from my eyes as I turned to say how much I was going to miss him too. That's when I saw that he was addressing a can of Pepsi he'd just opened.
這是我非常傷感的時(shí)候。我的兒子要出發(fā)去接受基本軍事訓(xùn)練了。我兒子平時(shí)喜歡充硬漢子。但是當(dāng)我們爬進(jìn)車(chē)?yán)锶サ臅r(shí)候,他用斷斷續(xù)續(xù)的悲哀的聲音說(shuō):“我會(huì)想你的。”我的眼淚忍不住從眼睛里流下來(lái)。我正要轉(zhuǎn)身過(guò)去對(duì)他說(shuō)我也會(huì)想他的,卻看見(jiàn)他是對(duì)一罐打開(kāi)的百事可樂(lè)說(shuō)這番話(huà)的。
