“谁又知道呢?”陆灵喃喃。

陆允桂当时做出那个决定的时候,同样不可能知道,那改变了他的女儿的一生,也改变了另外一个小男孩儿的一生。

“就是这里。”派崔克停下了脚步。他们停在了草地的边缘。他松开她的手,调皮地说:“我们挖吧!”

“……你在开玩笑吗?”陆灵张着嘴,不可置信地问,“用手?”

派崔克笑了笑,没有说话。他蹲了下去。

陆灵抬头望天,一片乌云不知何时飘到了他们的头顶。看上去快下雨了。“派特,别开玩笑了,我们应该回去了……”她说着低头看,派崔克已经挖到了什么。“这么快?”她便也蹲了下来,她看到的是塑料袋的一角,“嘿,你怎么能埋一个塑料袋在土地里?这非常不环保!”她嘟囔着开始跟他一起扒掉泥土。泥土是松的,她意识到了什么,那种感觉愈加强烈。

他们挖出了一个黑白的JD(英国运动连锁零售品牌)塑料袋。

十几年前,在英格兰任何一个城市的街头,也许现在依然如此,你可以轻而易举地看到一个青少年男孩儿的后背上背着这么一个塑料袋。派特当年也如此。

陆灵差点忍不住大笑起来,但当她看向他,她知道这不是时候。

派崔克始终低着头,他慢慢打开JD的袋子。陆灵往里面看,她愣了愣,反应过来。塑料袋里全部是从小到大,她送给过他的礼物。球鞋、球衣、FIFA系列游戏。不仅如此,还有他从她那里拿走的一些书。他总是不把书还给她,她以为他早忘了扔去哪里了。那本《不能承受的生命之轻》也在里面。

他突然紧握住她的手。尽管他自己的手就在不受控制的颤抖。

“我有阿莱克斯的允许与祝福,我知道另外一个人也得到了,但他没有抓住他的机会,现在是我的机会,缇娜,请让我把话说完。”

陆灵紧紧闭着嘴,几秒后,她点了点头。

“你站起来,love。”派崔克说。

陆灵做了他要求的,她木讷地站了起来。

然后,派崔克单膝跪在了地上。他深深吸了口气,开始诉说。

“Well Tina, you know I always consider myself the luckiest person in the whole universe, not just because of the cliche stuff that everyone talks about, that I can play football and have won titles and trophies, no, that’s only a s.mall part of life.

I’ve travelled a lot with you since I was a little kid, remember?Underground, Overground, trams, trains, through tunnels. I can still see the sunlight through the windows, vividly, the coloured world quickly moving past us. Then I looked into your eyes, a million times like right now, it’s the deep of the deepest black, baby. Swirling, swallowing yet still sparkling, it’s the black ocean dragging me into. Wasn’t quite clear about everything as I was a stupid kid back then, but I’ve always known that I want it to be endless. Endless journey and endless sinking into your eyes.

When we were separated, baby, it was like the world falling apart and a sweet dream turning into a nightmare...and I was most frightened by the idea that the journey could end there. And then I realized HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU, TINA. And let me tell you what my biggest luck is: I’m still here traveling with you in this journey. This time, as I would picture it in my head, it never ends.
