翻译 You’ve Changed John J. Ryan Don West had seen her wave and he came walking across the station toward her, a quizzical, surprised look on his tanned face. “Well, well,” he said, with the same rugged smile. “What a nice surprise, ah... Jeanne.” She smiled in return. “Don West, you haven’t changed a bit.” It was true, a few pounds heavier, a little older, but the same Don West she had fallen in love with long ago—and never quite got over. He stood back away and looked down at her, his blue eyes crinkling at the corners. No use kidding herself, she thought, and say it had all been a kid crush. She still got weak just looking at him. “Jeanne,” he said. “Jeanne. You look good enough to eat.” He sighed and then frowned handsomely. “You don’t know how swell it is to see you. I’ve wondered so many times whatever became of you.” She hesitated for a moment, about to say something, but then she changed her mind. He took her arm and steered her expertly towards the cocktail lounge. But then he always had done things expertly, particularly where women were concerned. He settled back and studied her. “You do look different. You really have changed, Jeanne. But you’re lovelier, so much lovelier.” “Don,” she said softly, “it’s really been quite a long time since ‘varsity.” He lit a cigarette. “I know, Jeanne. I enlisted right after I got my degree. It’s been some time, all right. But say, remember the ball and The Blue Danube? Remember that?” She kept her eyes on her drink. She didn’t dare look up. “I heard it just the other day, Jeanne, and I thought of you—couldn’t stop thinking of you, either.” He took her hand. “Look, Jeanne, I’ve got a business appointment. I’ve just come in from the south, but I’ll be free by dinner time.” She glanced up now and his eyes were saying tender things. “Jeanne, it will be just like it was, just like that night at the ball. Just the two of us. Let’s make it seven o’clock at my hotel for dinner.” He pressed her hand hard, didn’t wait for an answer. She watched him walk out the door. She knew that Don West would never change—would never be quite an honest person. But the way she loved him wouldn’t change either. There was no mistaking the way he had looked at her. Don could be hers. Only she wouldn’t be there at seven, mostly because she had never been to the ball at ‘varsity. She had never even had a date with Don. He was the rugby hero admired from afar. And, besides, her name wasn’t Jeanne. 第一章 You·ve changed.docx
