概述:
然而,不管我怎么努力地維持原狀,吉米還是認為他熟悉的世界已經(jīng)消失了。。。
Hints:
Jimmy
Margaret
But no matter how much I tried to make things stay the same, even Jimmy grasped that the world he'd known was gone. One day I asked, "You miss Dad, don't you?" His lips quivered and then he asked, "What do you think, Margaret? He was my best friend." Our tears began to flow.
My mother died of lung cancer six months later and I alone was left to look after Jimmy.
He didn't adjust to going to work without my father right away, so he came and lived with me in New York City for a while. He went wherever I went and seemed to adjust pretty well. Still, Jimmy longed to live in my parents' house and work at his old job and I pledged to help him return.
然而,不管我怎么努力地維持原狀,吉米還是認為他熟悉的世界已經(jīng)消失了。有一天,我問他:“你是不是想念爸爸?”他的嘴唇顫抖了幾下,然后問我:“你怎么看,瑪格麗特?他是我最好的朋友。”接著,我倆都流下了眼淚。
六個月后,母親因肺癌去世,剩下我一人來照顧吉米。
吉米不能馬上適應去上班時沒有父親陪著,因此搬來紐約和我一起住了一段時間。我走到哪里他就跟到哪里,他好像適應得很好。但吉米依然想住在我父母的房子里,繼續(xù)干他原來的工作。我答應把他送回去。
