一
Jean: Honey, do you want any tips for using heroin?
親愛的,要不要給你一些吸毒的技巧?
Jaco: No. I am not using it. Why?
我又不吸毒。怎麼了?
Jean: New York health ministry released Heroin for Dummies last week.
紐約衛生署上個星期頒發了海洛因吸食指南。
Jaco: What? Seriously?
什麼?不是吧。
Jean: Take a look at it here. This is one page from the 16-page guide book.
看看啊。這是16頁的指導手冊中的一頁。
Jaco: Shoot correctly to avoid infection. Warm your body to show your veins. That’s funny.
為防止感染正確注射。為了看清楚靜脈,讓身體保持溫暖。很有意思。
Jean: Funny? You think it’s funny? Do you have any idea how many people especially teenagers addicted to drugs? There will be more victims.
有意思?你覺得有意思? 你知道有多少人尤其是青少年在吸毒嗎?會有更多受害者的。
Jaco: It might be a problem. But we have to think about the big picture. They will get infected without knowing how to inject correctly. They might even die. But if they know how to protect themselves…
這可能是個問題。但是我們要考慮大局。如果不知道正確注射,他們會感染的。甚至會死亡。但是如果他們知道怎麼保護自己,
Jean: What big picture? Stop the BS. If they know how to protect themselves, they should never use it. I say they ask for it.
什麼大局啊?不要再唧唧歪歪了。如果他們知道保護自己的話,他們就不會吸毒了。我說他們自找的。
Jaco: They are young. Young people make mistakes. They deserve a chance.
他們還年輕啊。年輕人就會犯錯。應該給他們機會的。

不。你只是甜言蜜語而已。你想要我幹嗎?我現在有點兒害怕。不要再搞一次相親了。
Jean: Still mad about the guy? I’m sorry.
還對那位生氣呢啊?我道歉。
Monica: A sorry doesn’t cut it. He is too big. I thought I was big. He is even bigger than I am.

手術以後,孩子媽媽不能說話。她用寫的方式。她當時太虛弱。她的手寫體就像小孩畫畫一樣。可是充滿了愛意和關懷。她所關心的就是她的天使們。她們是不是健康?她什麼時候可以餵奶?她們有沒有取上漂亮的名字?
