霭青的飞机是从纽约肯尼迪机场起飞，在旧金山机场转机北京。 从乔治的公寓开到机场三个多小时，两人天没亮就起床出发，一路上两人跟着收音机一起高声唱歌，乔治讲笑话，霭青讲成语故事。 两人大唱大笑大说，霭青要把这最后的记忆成为最快乐的记忆。 路上有些堵车，距离起飞两个小时，才到达机场，从后备箱拿出行李，霭青拍了拍手，“我走啦。乔治，我感谢生活中遇到你。你多保重。” 乔治也不说话，一把抱住吻了起来。 这一吻，直让霭青腿发软，“乔治，我晚了。” 乔治搂着她不放开，“霭青，我爱你，我真的爱你。” 霭青抬眼看着他，她也爱他，真的爱他，她这时说不出口，因为飞机就要赶不上了。 “霭青，我们结婚吧。”乔治终于说出来了。 霭青瞪大双眼看着他。 “我的生活里不能没有你，嫁给我吧。” 霭青眨了眨眼。 没等她回答，乔治搂紧她吻了起来。 接下来就是退票等一系列手续。 再接下来就是市政厅登记结婚。 再再接下来就是申请绿卡。 还没喘息过来，霭青和乔治已经在旧金山机场着陆了。 来接机竟然是凯文。 “哈喽！”看到他们二人，凯文英俊帅气的脸上绽开笑容，露出整齐雪白的牙齿，“我先恭喜你们。” 凯文和乔治握手拥抱，凯文转过身来，紧紧抱住霭青。 “嗨嗨嗨，”乔治看不下去了，推开凯文。 凯文笑道，“我早就跟你说过，娶了这个姑娘。艾昆，是我说服他的。” “她叫霭青，”乔治纠正他，“以后你想来我家吃她的馅饼，你先把名字叫对。” “对不起，叫错名字你怎么不纠正呢。”凯文口气里好像错的是霭青。 乔治和霭青的家先借居在凯文的客房。 有工作的人和穷学生就是不一样，凯文现在住的地方是两室一厅一卫的公寓，他把一间卧室改作书房，现在加了一个气垫床，让给乔治做卧室。 “这个气垫床是我野营用的，应该非常结实，不过你们俩动作得轻点，别给我压坏了。” “我去！”乔治回了他一句。 霭青看凯文心情不错，想起琳琳，“我一直没有和琳琳联系上，你呢？” 凯文收了嬉笑，“没有。我给她时间恢复，我等她。” “唉，凯文。”霭青拍了拍凯文。 霭青是东岸时间，比加州早三个小时，旅行一天，有些疲倦了，先洗洗准备睡觉，在浴室听见乔治和凯文在客厅里弹唱，带着悲哀。 Against All Odds by Phil Collins How can I just let you walk away Just let you leave without a trace? When I stand here taking every breath with you, ooh ooh You're the only one who really knew me at all How can you just walk away from me When all I can do is watch you leave? 'Cause we've shared the laughter and the pain And even shared the tears You're the only one who really knew me at all So take a look at me now Well there's just an empty space And there's nothing left here to remind me Just the memory of your face Ooh, take a look at me now Well there's just an empty space And you coming back to me is against the odds And that's what I've got to face I wish I could just make you turn around Turn around and see me cry There's so much I need to say to you So many reasons why You're the only one who really knew me at all So take a look at me now Well there's just an empty space And there's nothing left here to remind me Just the memory of your face Now Take a look at me now 'Cause that's just an empty space But to wait for you is all I can do And that's what I've got to face Take a good look at me now 'Cause I'll still be standing here And you coming back to me is against all odds It's the chance I've got to take Take a look at me now 霭青听得泪流满面，她坐在马桶盖上，给琳琳发邮件：不管发生了什么，都已经过去，你不知道凯文有多爱你，你不知道他有多伤心，回来吧，回到他身边，去爱他，让他爱你，抚平你的伤痕。等你，爱你的霭青。 发完信，霭青又呆呆想了一会儿琳琳，回忆三个室友在一起的时光，哦，对了，给丽颖发个邮件，她住的离这里不远。 霭青从纸巾盒里抽出两张，擦干眼睛，接着用这两张纸巾擦干洗漱台，正要把脏纸巾扔进垃圾桶，看见一根长头发，一根金色长头发。 等一等，等一等，霭青有种上当的感觉。 凯文对琳琳到底有没有真心？ 霭青又拿起手机，怎么跟琳琳说？如果琳琳看到她刚才发出的信，突然回心转意，到这儿一看，凯文已经移情别恋，琳琳岂不是受二次伤害。 霭青犹豫了，只凭一根头发，不能轻易下结论，要不和丽颖商量一下？ 丽颖，我今天到达湾区，期待和你见面。 霭青躺在气垫床上，思前想后，睡不着，外面乔治和凯文还在断断续续的，聊几句，唱几句，弹几段。 霭青听出其中一首，是凯文曾经要学生乐队唱给琳琳的，红衣女郎， The Lady in Red by Chris de Burgh I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight I've never seen you shine so bright I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance They're looking for a little romance, given half a chance And I have never seen that dress you're wearing Or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes I have been blind The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek There's nobody here, it's just you and me It's where I want to be But I hardly know this beauty by my side I'll never forget the way you look tonight I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight I've never seen you shine so bright, you were amazing I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side And when you turned to me and smiled, it took my breath away And I have never had such a feeling Such a feeling of complete and utter love, as I do tonight The lady in red is dancing with me, cheek to cheek There's nobody here, it's just you and me It's where I want to be But I hardly know this beauty by my side I'll never forget the way you look tonight I never will forget the way you look tonight The lady in red, the lady in red The lady in red, my lady in red I love you 终于，乔治洗了澡，进入房间，“你还没睡？” 霭青捏着那根金发，举在灯下。 乔治看了一眼，“什么？” “凯文浴室里发现的。” 乔治哦了一下。 霭青压低声音，“凯文有女朋友了？” “他没说过。我想不会吧，他等琳琳。” “那这个怎么解释？” “可能是来访朋友的，再说，”乔治抬起霭青的脸，“男人是有需求的，我不指望凯文是个苦行僧，他爱琳琳，这儿，还有这儿，”他指着自己的心和头，“这里没感情。”他又指了指下边。 “你也这样？”霭青捏住他。 “我只属于你。”乔治的手滑向霭青敏感部位。 |
