Be Careful What You Say, by Alyce Clark
That’s it. Right there. The deal breaker. The beginning of the end of their relationship. The quickness of his reply. How no thought is put into the hurtful words he’s speaking. The way he misses the tears forming in her eyes. That sting. The anger that follows… Silent, but permanent. The break that severs the ties between them. Something inside of her begins to let go. Subconsciously, she sees a future without him. Doesn’t stop him when he storms out of the room. The divorce itself doesn’t materialize for months. But this moment seals it. Be careful what you say.
說話要小心
這就是了。就在這里。決定性因素。他們關(guān)系走向終結(jié)的開始。他回應(yīng)是那么的迅速,以至于他說出傷人的話語時都沒有考慮。他忽視了她眼中的淚水。那刺痛。隨之而來的憤怒……是無聲的,但是永久的。這一瞬間斷開了他們之間的紐帶。她內(nèi)心的某種東西開始釋放。潛意識中,她看到了一個沒有他的未來。當他怒氣沖沖離開房間時,她沒有阻止他。離婚本身要過幾個月才會發(fā)生,但這一刻決定了一切。說話要小心。
