麦田里的守望者 Chapter 6

Some things are hard to remember. I'm thinking now of when Stradlater got back from his date with Jane. I mean I can't remember exactly what I was doing when I heard his goddam stupid footsteps coming down the corridor. I probably was still looking out the window, but I swear I can't remember. I was so damn worried, that's why. When I really worry about something, I don't just fool around. I even have to go to the bathroom when I worry about something. Only, I don't go. I'm too worried to go. I don't want to interrupt my worrying to go. If you knew Stradlater, you'd have been worried, too. I'd double-dated with that bastard ² a couple of times, and I know what I'm talking about. He was unscrupulous. He really was., ,Anyway, the corridor was all linoleum ³ and all, and you could hear his goddam footsteps coming right towards the room. I don't even remember where I was sitting when he came in--at the window, or in my chair or his. I swear I can't remember., ,He came in griping about how cold it was out. Then he said, "Where the hell is everybody? It's like a goddam morgue around here." I didn't even bother to answer him. If he was so goddam stupid not to realize it was Saturday night and everybody was out or asleep or home for the week end, I wasn't going to break my neck telling him. He started getting undressed. He didn't say one goddam word about Jane. Not one. Neither did I. I just watched him. All he did was thank me for letting him wear my hound's-tooth. He hung it up on a hanger ⁴ and put it in the closet., , ,All of a sudden, he said, "For Chrissake, Holden. This is about a goddam baseball glove.", ,"So what?" I said. Cold as hell., ,That bout of pneumonia enfeebled her.那次肺炎的发作使她虚弱了 。,He was never concerned about being born a bastard.他从不介意自己是私生子
