二十二年(宋德利译)
文/章理申
两个都很好强的刘玉民与王佳丽,在孩子两岁时
就离婚了。
都说父母离婚对孩子不好,会给孩子心灵上带来
伤害。离婚时,刘玉民建议这事不要让孩子知道。王
佳丽想想也对,自已也希望孩子健康成长啊!
刘玉民和王佳丽办了离婚手续后,为了瞒住孩
子,两人就没有搬出去分开住。王佳丽说:“我们要
尽量配合得好一些,不能让孩子看出破绽。”刘玉民
说:“那是肯定的,一切为了孩子。”
之后的日子里,刘玉民简直换了一个人似的,简
直就是一个模范丈夫。每天一下班就到学校里接孩
子,还去菜市场买菜,一到家就下厨房烧饭。每逢星
期天,两人还带着孩子去公园里坐过山车、海盗船、
碰碰车,玩仙谷漂流,常常玩得尽兴而归。两人过日
子似乎与结婚前一模一样。
时间在不知不觉中一天天过去,孩子也在一天天
中长大,从幼儿园到上小学,接着又上初中高中,转
眼又上大学,等到孩子大学毕业,刘玉民与王佳丽已
经“奔五”了。
一天,刘玉民试探性地问王佳丽:“现在孩子已
经大学毕业,马上就要参加工作了,我们的任务也算
王佳丽想也没想就回答说:“都到了这个年纪
了,已经没有年轻时的那股激情了,再说要找个真正
的好男人也难,早就没这个心思了。”
刘玉民笑着接过话说:“佳丽,你看我这个人怎
么样?这一路走过来我像个好男人吗?我们和好吧!
少年夫妻老来伴啊!”
“你都倔了22年了,今天不倔了吗?”
“早就不倔了,早就想对你说这句话了。”
一向很好强的王佳丽刹那间泪流满面:“其实离
婚的当天我就后悔了,可是,为了等你这句话,你却
让我等了整整22年!
