   Hey, I'm sorry you had to come do this, Jacob, I apologized. At any rate, you get your parts, right? “嘿,我很抱歉,你得来做这种事情,雅克布。”我道歉道。“无论如何,你弄到你的零件里,对吧?”


  Yeah, he muttered. He was still looking awkward… upset. “是啊,”他喃喃低语着。他看上去还是很尴尬……也很不安。
  There's more? I asked in disbelief. “还有吗?”我难以置信地问道。
  Forget it, he mumbled 1, I'll get a job and save the money myself. “忘掉这件事吧。”他低声说道。“我会找份打工,然后自己存钱。”
  I glared at him until he met my gaze. Just spit it out, Jacob. 我瞪着他,直到他对上我的视线为止。“说出来,雅克布。”
  It's so bad. “那太糟了。”
  I don't care. Tell me, I insisted. “我不在乎。告诉我。”我坚持着。
  Okay… but, geez, this sounds bad. He shook his head. He said to tell you, no, to warn you, that and this is his plural 2, not mine.  “好吧……但是,耶稣,这听上去太糟了。”他摇着头。“他要我告诉你,不,警告你,说——还有,那是他的复数,不是我的”
  he lifted one hand from my waist and made little quotations 3 marks in the air 'We'll be watching.' He watched warily 4 for my reaction. 他从我腰上移开一只手,在空气里画了一个小小的引号——“‘我们会一直看着。’”他小心地等待着我的反应。
  It sounded like something from a mafia movie. I laughed out loud. 这听起来像是黑手党电影里的一句台词。我大声笑了起来。
  Sorry you had to do this, Jake, I snickered. “对不起,让你不得不做这种事,杰克。”我窃笑着。
