I think I saw it in the trunk, Billy said. You may have to dig for it. “我想我在那辆卡车里看见了。”比利说道。“你得去把它挖出来。”
Jacob slouched back out into the rain. 雅克布无精打采地走出屋外，走回雨中。
Billy and I faced each other in silence. After a few seconds, the quiet started to feel awkward, so I turned and headed to the kitchen. 比利和我沉默地对峙着。几秒钟以后，这种静寂开始变得尴尬起来，所以我转过身去，径直走向厨房。
I could hear his wet wheels squeak 1 against the linoleum 2 as he followed. 我能听到他跟着我，湿漉漉的轮椅碾过地上铺着的油毯发出吱吱声。
I shoved the bag onto the crowded top shelf of the fridge, and spun 3 around to confront him. His deeply lined face was unreadable. 我把纸包塞进冰箱拥挤的上格，旋即转身与他对峙着。他棱角分明的脸上有着无法读懂的神情。
Charlie won't be back for a long time. My voice was almost rude. “查理得很久以后才会回来。”我的语气几近粗鲁。
He nodded in agreement, but said nothing. 他同意地点了点头，但什么也没说。
Thanks again for the fish fry, I hinted. “再次感谢你的煎鱼。”我暗示道。
He continued nodding. I sighed and folded my arms across my chest. 他继续点头，我叹了口气，把胳膊交叠在胸前。
He seemed to sense that I had given up on small talk. Bella, he said, and then he hesitated. 他似乎感觉到我已经放弃了与他闲谈。“贝拉。”他说完，又踌躇了起来。
I waited. 我等待着。
Bella, he said again, Charlie is one of my best friends. “贝拉，”他再次说道。“查理是我最好的朋友之一。”
Yes. “是的。”
He spoke 4 each word carefully in his rumbling 5 voice. I noticed you've been spending time with one of the Cullens. 他用他隆隆的嗓音小心地说着每个字。“我注意到，你经常和卡伦家的其中一个成员待在一起。”
Yes, I repeated curtly 6. “是的。”我简短地重复着。
His eyes narrowed. Maybe it's none of my business, but I don't think that is such a good idea. 他的眼睛眯缝起来。“也许这与我无关，但我不认为这是个好主意。”
You're right, I agreed. It is none of your business. “你是对的，”我赞同道。“这与你无关。”
He raised his graying eyebrows 7 at my tone. You probably don't know this, but the Cullen family has an unpleasant reputation on the reservation. 听到我这样的语气，他扬起了灰白的眉毛。“你也许不知道这一点，但卡伦家在保留区声名狼藉。”
