那晚,阿兰被转到另一座医院,他们要在那儿给他装一只假腿。简也跟着一起去了,在那儿的一间探视室里睡了一觉。早晨,她买了一张报纸。她对警察的猜测是对的。“他们已经抓住了那些人,爸爸!”她说道,“看这个!”

1
-

警方昨天抓获了两名被认为上周在女王马车中放炸弹的爱尔兰人。警方说:“上周那辆马车曾到伦敦南部的一家工厂安装新轮子,我们相信就是在那里安放炸弹的。那两名爱尔兰人在这家工厂工作,炸弹爆炸两天前他们却到爱尔兰度假去了。我们认为炸弹上安装了定时器,定在11点在国会大厦外爆炸。对女王来讲幸运的是,炸弹在女王离开了马车之后才爆炸。”

2
-

阿兰·科尔慢慢放下报纸。他看上去很高兴。“感谢上帝,”他说。

3
-

“但是他们为什么要让炸弹在国会外边爆炸呢?”简问,“女王在马车里呆了20分钟—为什么不早点炸飞马车呢?”

4
-

“不知道,也许他们想让画面在电视上更好看些。”阿兰说,“对女王来说很幸运,可我却不走运,还有那些被炸死的人。”

5
-

“是埃”简把手放在父亲的手上,回想起国会门外的那几分钟。那个美国男人用摄像机拍摄,那个长着棕红色头发的女人生气地摇着照相机。然后……她合上了双眼,仿佛看到了那浓烟,那马的嘶鸣状以及四处的鲜血和尸体……

6
-

会是什么样的人干的呢?

7
-

“我想恐怖分子已经在电视上看到了那场面。”她说,“炸弹爆炸时他们正在爱尔兰。”

8
-

“我想他们看了,”阿兰说,“我想人们死的时候他们正在笑。但我很高兴警察已经抓到了他们。也许他们现在可以让我清静一下了。”

9
-

“谁?警察吗?爸爸,您是什么意思?”

10
-

阿兰叹了口气。“唉,他们昨天来问我爆炸前一天晚上的事。我那天晚上十点左右回到马厩,你知道,是去看看那匹坏了一条腿的马。我常那样做。他们问我是否看到有什么异常或是看没看过那马车。”

11
-

“那您跟他们说什么了呢?”

12
-

阿兰生气了。“你怎么想呢,简妮?’我当然没看到有什么异常!我是去看马,又不是去看马车。而且我们就在那儿呆了半个小时。”

13
-

“我们,爸爸?” 简问道,“有别人和您在一起吗?”

14
-

阿兰犹豫了一下。“啊,是啊……我的一个女朋友,安娜。你还没见过她,简妮,但我已经跟她提起过你了。她很好,你会喜欢她的。她有时和我一起去看马。”

15
-

简感到不太自然。四年前妈妈去世以后,她和爸爸住在家里。爸爸曾带回家一个女人,但简和那女人大吵了一顿,那女人就走了。从那以后就再也没有别的女人来过,直到简离开了家去上大学。现在....?

16
-

然而,父亲是大人,当然可以有女朋友。但简不喜欢。她太爱母亲,也爱父亲。

17
-

“她是什么样的女人?”她不高兴地问。

18
-

他是我的父亲,她想—我不想让别的女人把他从我身边抢走。

19
-

“高个儿。很漂亮。棕红色的头发。她喜欢马和......电影。我们经常一起去着电影。”

20
-

“她和您在恋爱吗?”

21
-

“啊…可能吧,简妮,我不知道。我刚认识她几个星期。你会喜欢她的,简妮,她很有意思。”

22
-

简还是不高兴,她无法控制自己的情绪。“那么她为什么没来这儿?她为什么没来看您呢?”

23
-

阿兰现在着上去很尴尬。“哦,我正想请你,简妮……你看,她没有电话,而且……也许她以为我已经死了,就像别人一样。一上帝知道她会怎么看待一个只有一条腿的男人,但我真的想见她,……所以我写了这封信。你能帮我寄这封信吗,简妮?劳驾了。”

24
-

简拿过信看了看地址:安娜·芭瑞,堡渥特花园14号,伦敦NE11。

25
-

“爸爸:您的名字登在报纸上。这个女人认得字,对吧?她应该知道您还活着。”

26
-

“是啊,可是... 也许她不知道我在哪家医院。我不知道。简妮,请 — ,别太难说话了。”

27
-

“您和警察谈起过这个女人吗,爸爸?”

-

“还没有。”

29
-

“为什么没有?他们会问她一些问题,是不是?”

30
-

‘阿兰叹气道:“是啊,我想是。我在信中警告她了。也许那就是她不来的原因。你知道……事儿有点儿困难,简妮。安娜有丈夫……所以要是她丈夫知道了我们的事儿,她会很难堪。也许 警察也会间她丈夫一些问题,那就会有各种各样的麻烦。”

31
-

“我明白了,”简说。她感到很雄过。我父亲爱上了一个有夫之妇,她想。接着,她看到父亲眼中的泪水和他那苍白而疲惫的面孔;于是她生自己的而不是父亲的气。为什么爸爸就不能恋爱?她想。每个人都会恋爱,不可能谁都能选择最好的人。现在他在这儿,只剩一条腿了,我还生他的气。我是他女儿,我应帮他!也许这个安娜真是个有个残酷的丈夫的好女人。

32
-

她微笑着,说:“对不起,爸爸。我当然会帮您寄信的。但是……寄信不是有点儿不安全吗?她丈夫会看到的。”

33
-

“不,没事的。堡握特花园只是她现在住的地方,不是她的家。我不知道她丈夫住哪儿。我不想知道。”阿兰徽笑着,并握住简的手。“她是个可爱的女人,简妮,真的。你见到她时会喜欢她的,你知道。,

34
-

医院外面简慢慢地沿着马路走着。她感到伤心,还有点儿孤独。我真希望妈妈还活在世上,她想,要是妈妈还活着,就坐在医院里爸爸身边多好啊!我不想有这些问题。为什么爸爸还需要另一个女人呢?

35
-

唤,妈妈,您为什么要死呢?我真想和某个人说说心里话。

36
-

她从口袋里掏出那封信并看了看。我不知道这个安娜·芭瑞什么样,她想着。也许真像爸爸说的那样她的确很好。也许我能对她谈谈。也许她真的爱爸爸;也许她可以帮我照顾爸爸。

37
-

但是她为什么不来看爸爸呢?

38
-

她又看了一遍地址:堡握特花园14号,伦教NE11。离她自己的学生公寓不太远。

39
-

为什么不亲自送去呢?她想。那样,如果安娜出来开门,我就可以亲自服她说话了。要是我见着她,至少可以知道她是什么样子。

40
-

简把信放回包里,快速走向地铁站。她问自己:我是满怀怨恨呢,还是满怀希望?

41
-

堡握特花园14号是伦敦北城的一条安静的街道上的一座老房子。简掏出信,按了按门铃。可什么也没有发生。

42
-

该死!她想。她又按了一次。还是没有人。她试着推了推门,可门锁着。于是她把信塞进信箱,转身就走。接着她又停了下来。

43
-

我来这儿就是为了见这个女人,简想,想知道她是什么样。她对我父亲很重要,所以对我很重要。我等着吧。

44
-

她正站在那儿时,从邻居家出来一位妇女。这位妇女长着灰色的头发和一张可以看出她爱打听邻居的事并议论他们的脸。

45
-

“他们已经走了,你在这儿等没用。”那女人说,“我看见你在按门铃,所以来告诉你。”

46
-

“你肯定吗?"简说,“我找安娜。”

47
-

“长着红头发的那个女孩?没错,她住过这儿,但两天前就和男朋友搬走了。就是爆炸那天早晨—所以我记得这事。现在屋子已经空了。我从窗子往里看过,他们把所有的东西都带走了。”

48
-

男朋友!那么说安娜还有一个情人,简想,不止是我爸爸!我可怜的,可怜的爸爸!

49
-

“你和他们熟吗?”女人问。

50
-

“不,真不熟。,简说,“我只是想……”

51
-

“他们才在这儿住了三个月左右,”那女人接着说,“他们不太友好。从不说早晨好或那一类的话。我想他们是爱尔兰人。对,那个男的是。这儿周围有很多爱尔兰人。”

52
-

简开始往门远处走;那女人想带帮她,就又加了一句:“也许你的朋友会给你写信。”

53
-

“是的,也许会,”简朝从笑了笑,而后惆怅地沿街走着。

54
-

那么说安娜就是那种人。她可能从没爱过父亲,简想。我怎么告诉他呢?可怜的父亲!要不我只告诉他我已经把信寄了,不告诉他我已经来过面且知道她是个什么人。

55
-

但是简不太会说谎,而且她也不想着父亲那双悲伤的眼睛和那张疲惫而苍白的脸。让他再盼几个小时吧,她想,我现在先回家,明天再告诉他什么。

56
-

从爆炸事件后,她还没回过自己的公寓。她喜欢拥有自己的家。那仅是一间大卧室,外带一个小卫生间和一个厨房。但这是她自己的地方,她在那儿可以干自己喜欢干的事。

57
-

她关上门,然后脱下大衣并把它扔到床上。接着,她听见卫生间的门在身后慢慢地开了。她跳转过身来,吓得心怦怦直跳,看到一个女人就站在门口!

58
-

“你到底是谁?”她惊叫道。是个贼,她想。简跟父亲学过柔道,她知道该怎么办。她抓住那女人的胳膊,把她掷向床头。可那女人为了不摔倒,往下倒时抓住了简的头发,把它向前拉扯着。简尖叫着,伸出一只手去抓着那女人的脸,越来越使劲地抓着,直到她的头发被松开了。然后简一掌打在那女人脸上,那女人摔倒在地。简向后退了退,看了她一眼,并看到……

59
-

一个男人从厨房出来。他有一双冰冷的、灰色的眼睛,脸上有一丝淡淡的、生硬的微笑,最糟的是他手里有一把枪。他说:“不要。”

60
-

简站在那儿一动不动,浑身发抖。“不要什么?”

61
-

“不要动。不要说话。不要做任何事。”枪端那黑洞洞的小枪眼注视着她,就像一只冰冷的眼睛。

62
-

那女人从地上站起来,把简拉到椅子上,把她的手捆在背后。其时简想起别的公寓里有人,就张嘴喊起来。那男人打了她一个耳光。

63
-

“你想也别想,”他说。他从兜里掏出一个长布条,围着简的头绕了两圈,包住了她的嘴和下半边脸。简觉得自己的身体在吓得发抖。这些人是谁?他们要她干什么?她盯着那男人冷酷而生硬的脸及那女人蓝色的眼睛和棕红色的头发。她觉得以往见过那女人。可是在哪儿呢?

64
-

那女人把简的腿绑在椅子上。黑洞洞的小枪眼离她的脸仅几厘米远。那男人注视着她,微笑着。“老实坐着,放聪明点儿,小姑娘。”他说,“那样的话也许你还能多活几个小时。”

Police yesterday arrested two Irishmen who they think put a bomb in me Queen’s coach last week .The police said,‘Last week the coach went to a factory in south Loadon to have new wheels fitted,and we believe the bomb was placed in the each there.The two Irishmen worked at this factory,and two days before the bombing,they went on holiday to Ireland.We think the bomb had a clock in it,which was meant to explode at eleven o’clock outside Parliament. Luckily for the Queen,the bomb exploded after she had left the coach.’

‘I see,’Jane said.She felt miserable.My own father,she thought,is in love with a married woman.Then she saw the tears in his eyes,and his tired white face;and felt angry with herself,not him.why,she thought,shouldn’t my. father fall in love? It happens to everyone,and you can’t always choose the best person.Now he’s here with only one leg and I’m angry with him. I’m his daughter,I should help him!Perhaps this Anna really is a nice woman,with a cruel husband.
