What did one do around here? Nothing. Wait for summer to end. What did one do in the winter, then? I smiled at the answer I was about to give. He got the gist and said, “Don’t tell me: wait for summer to come, right?” I liked having my mind read. He’d pick up on dinner drudgery sooner than those before him. “Actually, in the winter the place gets very gray and dark. We come for Christmas. Otherwise it’s a ghost town.” “And what else do you do here at Christmas besides roast chestnuts and drink eggnog?” He was teasing. I offered the same smile as before. He understood, said nothing, we laughed. He asked what I did. I played tennis. Swam. Went out at night. Jogged. Transcribed music. Read. He said he jogged too. Early in the morning. Where did one jog around here? Along the promenade, mostly. I could show him if he wanted. It hit me in the face just when I was starting to like him again: “Later, maybe.”
——大家在这里都做些什么？
——不做什么，等夏天结束。
——那么，冬天做什么？
答案到了嘴边，我不禁露出微笑。他领会我的意思，说道：“先别告诉我：是等夏天来，对不对？”我乐意让人看穿心思。这个人会比他的“前辈”更早意会到“正餐苦差”。“其实，一到冬天，这里变得非常灰暗。我们来这里是为了过圣诞。否则这里杳无人烟。”“除了烤栗子、喝蛋奶酒之外，你们圣诞节在这里还做什么？”他在逗我。我露出和之前一样的微笑。他领悟了，不再说什么，于是我们笑起来。他问我都做些什么。我说打网球。游泳。晚上出门。慢跑。改编乐曲。读书。他说他也慢跑。一大早就出门。这附近去哪里慢跑？大抵来说，是沿着海滨大道。如果他想看看，我可以带路。就在我又有点喜欢他的时候，他给了我一记当头棒喝：“回头再说。或许吧。”
