“假装,”她看着花园,“不是事实。”“但是你说了两件真实的事情,对吧?第一,你讨厌这个女孩。第二,你想让她感觉好一点。如果你认为想要的真相比讨厌的真相更重要,就告诉她你已经原谅了她,即使你还没有。至少她会感觉好一些。也许这也会让你感觉好一些。
(Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better. If you decide that the wanting truth's more important than the hating truth, just tell her you've forgiven her, even if you haven't. At least she'd feel better. Maybe that'd make you feel better too.)
