《绝望的主妇》精讲107

加比：你是我唯一知道失去过亲骨肉的女人。格雷斯走了之后，我变得多愁善感。我会情不自禁地在超市或商场哭起来。我快把自己逼疯了。

Lynette: Hey, Mitzi, it's Lynette. Um, still haven't heard from you, I need to make sure we're all on the same page for tonight's meeting¹. Call me back. Ay. Hey.

Gaby: I know you're probably² busy, I really need to talk to somebody³.

Lynette: I would⁴ love to, but the meeting's tonight. I got⁵ a bunch⁶ of phone to make. Can't you talk to Susan or Bree?

Gaby: No, it's gotta be you.

Lynette: Why?

Gaby: You're the only woman I know who's lost a child. And ever⁷ since⁸ Grace⁹ left, I can't stop crying. I break down at the mall¹⁰, at the market¹¹. I'm starting to freak myself¹² out.

Lynette: I was¹³ the same after I lost the baby. I finally¹⁴ went to a therapist¹⁵.

Gaby: I didn't know that.

Lynette: Yeah.

Gaby: Did¹⁶ it help?

Lynette: It did. In fact¹⁷, she had¹⁸ me do something you might¹⁹ want to try. Write Grace a letter.

Gaby: A letter?

Lynette: You don't send it. You just pour²⁰ out your feelings²¹. Tell Grace how happy you are to have found²² her and how much you love her. Trust²³ me, after you've written it, you'll feel so much better.

Carlos: Gaby! Where are my keys?

Gaby: Uh, I have them! Wait. I'll be right down!

勒奈特：你好，米兹，我是勒奈特。一直没你消息，我要确认一下，今晚会议我们是同一战线的，回电给我。你好。

加比：我知道你可能很忙，但我要找个人聊聊。

勒奈特：我也想，但今晚就要开会了。我还要很多的电话要打。你可以找苏珊或布瑞啊！

加比：不行，只能是你。

勒奈特：为什么？

加比：你是我唯一知道失去过亲骨肉的女人。格雷斯走了之后，我变得多愁善感。我会情不自禁地在超市或商场哭起来。我快把自己逼疯了。

勒奈特：我当时失去孩子时也是这样。最后我去看了治疗师。

加比：我不知道有这事。

勒奈特：是的。

加比：有用吗？

勒奈特：有用。她给了我点建议，或许你想试试。给格雷斯写信。

格雷斯：写信？

勒奈特：但你不寄出去。你只是用以倾诉自己的感情。告诉格雷斯，你有多高兴找到了她，你有多爱她。相信我，你写完后，感觉会好很多。

卡洛斯：加比，我的钥匙在哪？

加比：在我这儿呢！我马上就下去。
