看不透的眼神

字幕原文

Della had a habit of saying little silent prayers about the simplest things, 德拉有个习惯，遇到最不起眼的小事总要在心里默默祈祷，

and now she whispered, "Please God, make him think I'm still pretty." 这会儿她轻声念叨着：“上帝啊，保佑他觉得我还是好看的吧。”

The door opened. 门开了。

Jim stepped in and closed it. 吉姆走了进来，随手关上了门。

He looked thin and very serious. 他看起来瘦瘦的，一脸严肃。

Poor fellow, he was only twenty-two, and already carrying a family. 可怜的家伙，才二十二岁，就得挑起养家糊口的担子。

He needed a new overcoat, and he had no gloves. 他该添件新大衣了，手上连副手套都没有。

Jim stopped inside the door, 吉姆在门边停下了脚步，

as still as a hunting dog that smells a bird. 一动也不动，就像闻到了飞鸟气味的猎犬一样。

His eyes were fixed on Della, 他的双眼紧紧盯着德拉，

with an expression she couldn't read, and it terrified her. 脸上的神情德拉怎么也看不懂，吓得她心里直发慌。

It wasn't anger, or surprise, or disapproval, 那不是生气，不是惊讶，也不是责备，

or any of the feelings she'd prepared herself for. 更不是她预想过的任何一种反应。

He just stared at her with that strange look. 他就只是用那种古怪的神情，直勾勾地盯着她。

Silence can be more frightening than any shout. 有时候，沉默比任何叫嚷都更让人害怕。

Della slipped off the table and went to him. 德拉从桌上滑了下来，朝他迎了过去。
