第22章 尋夫記（P, O, N英文版）

P - Poison （毒）

安岩不知吃了什麽東西，食物中毒，從半夜開始上吐下瀉。神荼示意要帶他去診所，但安岩強烈地掙紮反抗，只吃了點神荼帶回來的非處方藥就虛弱地窩進了被窩裏。他連着腦袋都裹進被子裏，在床上疼得直接縮成了一個圓球。

神荼皺着眉頭看着床上的大圓球，冰冷的語氣裏夾雜着幾分無奈：“不去？”

被子裏傳出悶悶的聲音：“這不是有藥呢麽，這點小毛病一會兒就好了。”

昏暗的床頭燈開着，神荼坐在小沙發裏，靠着沙發背，神情嚴肅地盯着裹住安岩的被子。怎麽看這都不像是小毛病。安岩貓在被窩裏一動也不動，神荼有些坐不住地站起來走到床邊，撩起窗簾看着外面，天色還将明未明。離診所尋常的工作時間還有三四個小時。

神荼的眼神凝聚在窗外，安岩就透過被子掀開的縫看着他在微弱月光中的側影。

這不就是藥麽？還是傳說中的，能讓人起死回生的那種。[1]

O - Onion （洋蔥）

午餐是在外吃的牛扒。

安岩用叉子插起盤裏的一塊洋蔥，看着叉子靈感突來地哼道：“如果你願意一層一層一層地剝開我的心……”

神荼不怎麽愛聽歌。

安岩洗漱的時候喜歡在房間裏外放自己的mp3列表，振振有詞地說這是為了派遣刷牙時不能說話的寂寞。于是神荼也被迫聽了很多流行的、有年代的，大衆化的、小衆圈子裏的歌曲。有的甚至被随機播放和單曲循環臨幸多次，磨得他耳朵起了繭子，也就能跟着小聲哼哼。

他知道安岩剛才唱的是《洋蔥》，抿着唇，有些好笑地接了一句：“我會發現什麽？”

這不過是兩人日常玩笑中的又一句而已，安岩切牛排的手卻突然一滞。

你會，發現什麽。

僵硬半拍的手腕很快又活動起來，安岩彷若無事一般歡快地唱道：“你會發現——左心室右心室左心房右心房還有心瓣膜！[1]”說完傻楞傻楞地哈哈大笑，讓神荼扶着額頭，垂眼腹诽，真想告訴旁邊那個正盯着這張桌子的服務員說不認識你。

笑聲和誇張的肢體動作勉強将安岩的驚慌失措糊弄了過去。他因一時唱得認真，忘記了自己的掩藏，過後想想連虛汗都驚得冒了出來。

要不是神荼玩心一起，突然一下打斷他，照着原本的歌詞唱下去，那些現在還不能說的話，一定會被太過了解他的神荼察覺。

（你會發現/你會訝異/你是我最壓抑最深處的秘密。）

N - Nonsense

At the time Shayne and Yann walked into the dining hall, a waiter recognized their faces and soon came along, directed them to the empty table where they usually took near the window.

“What’s the order for today” The waiter said in a delighted tone while he was pulling out the menu, “nice to see you couple here again.” He said in English as he knew Yann didn’t speak French, and the words really threw something unexpectedly into the conversation.

Jesus Christ... What’s the nonsense going on now “No, we are not... I mean, the ‘couple’ thing.”

Yann immediately responded to him with an awkward expression. He peeked at Shayne, but the latter looked more than calm, without intending to make any suggestion.

Ok. As normal, I guess he won’t show any expression anyway, Yann talked to himself in his mind.

“Oh, sorry for making the assumption...” The waiter looked astonished. Through the glass in the wall, he could watch the two always leaving and returning to the hotel together, and he noticed the atmosphere around them. I thought those were faces only belonging to valentines! “I must be wrong, gentlemen,” he bowed deeply to the two guys.

“Never mind, ” Yann was a really easy-going person, and he didn’t mean to make the waiter apologize. “We just share one bed because something happened,” relaxedly, he said.

And now, both the waiter and Shayne looked into him, strangely.

Yann made a confused face as if there was a huge question mark standing on his head.

“Did I say something wrong”
