 　　"Mom!" I whispered¹, my voice full of love and relief. “妈妈！”我低声说着，我的声音里充满了热爱和宽慰。

　　She took in Edward's still form on the recliner, and tiptoed to my bedside. 爱德华依旧维持着一动不动地睡在躺椅上的姿势，她看在眼里，踮着脚走的我的床边。

　　"He never leaves, does he?" she mumbled² to herself. “他一直待在这里，不是吗？”她低声自言自语着。

　　"Mom, I'm so glad to see you!" “妈妈，我真高兴看到你！”

　　She bent³ down to hug me gently, and I felt warm tears falling on my cheeks. 她俯下身子，温柔地拥抱着我，我感觉到热泪正从我脸上留下来。

　　"Bella, I was so upset!" “贝拉，我真担心！”

　　"I'm sorry, Mom. But everything's fine now, it's okay," I comforted her. “对不起，妈妈。但现在没事了，已经没事了。”我安慰着她。

　　"I'm just glad to finally see your eyes open." She sat on the edge⁴ of my bed. “我真高兴，我最终看到你睁开眼睛了。”她在我的床沿上坐了下来。

　　I suddenly realized I didn't have any idea when it was. "How long have they been closed?" 我忽然意识到我还不知道现在是什么时候。“我的眼睛是从什么时候起闭上的？”

　　"It's Friday, hon, you've been out for a while." “今晚是星期五，亲爱的，你睡了很长一段时间。”

　　"Friday?" I was shocked. I tried to remember what day it had been when… but I didn't want to think about that. “星期五？”我吃了一惊。我试图记起那件事是哪天发生的……但我不愿意去想它。

　　"They had to keep you sedated⁵ for a while, honey you've got a lot of injuries." “他们不得不一直给你使用镇静剂，用了好长一段时间，甜心——你弄出了很多伤口。”

　　"I know." I could feel them. “我知道。”我能感觉到这些伤口的存在。

　　"You're lucky Dr⁶. Cullen was there. He's such a nice man… very young, though. And he looks more like a model than a doctor…" “你真幸运，卡伦医生就在那里。他真是个好人……不过，太年轻了点。他看上去更像一个模特，而非医生……”

　　"You met Carlisle?" “你见到卡莱尔了？”

　　"And Edward's sister Alice. She's a lovely girl." “还有爱德华的妹妹爱丽丝。她是个可爱的女孩。”

　　"She is," I agreed wholeheartedly.  “她确实是。”我完全赞成。
