He didn't ride the bus anymore. He didn't have to. His mom gave him the Impala when his dad bought her a new Taurus…

他不再坐校车，已经没那个必要了。妈妈把羚羊轿车给了他，爸爸又给她买了一辆新的福特金牛座。

Park spent most nights lying on his bed because it was the only place she'd never been.

多数晚上，帕克都待在床上，那是她唯一没待过的地方。

Not that the Impala wasn't just as ruined with memories. Some mornings, if Park got to school early, he sat in the parking lot with his head on the steering wheel and let whatever was left of Eleanor wash over him until he ran out of air. Not that school was any better.

但那辆羚羊轿车没有随着记忆被埋葬。有些早上，帕克如果提早到校，就会坐在停车场，头顶着方向盘，让记忆中的埃莉诺淹没自己，直到喘不过气来。进了学校也没有让他好受一点。

He lay on his bed and never turned on the stereo.

他躺在床上。一次也没打开过音响。

He didn't ride the bus anymore because he'd have the whole seat to himself.

他不再坐校车，因为整排座位只有他一个人。

She wasn't at her locker. Or in class. Mr Stessman said it was pointless to read Macbeth out loud without Eleanor. "Fie, my Lord, fie," he lamented.

她不再在储物柜旁现身，也不出现在课堂上。史岱斯曼老师说，少了埃莉诺，朗诵《麦克白》已经失去了意义。他哀叹着：“呸，我的君王，呸。”

She didn't stay for dinner. She didn't lean against him when he watched TV.

她不会留下来吃晚餐。也不会靠着他一起看电视。

She didn't ride the bus anymore. She rode to school with her uncle. He made her go, even though there were only four weeks left, and everybody was already studying for finals.

她不再坐校车，舅舅开车送她上学。虽然学期只剩四星期，大家已经在迎接期末考了，舅舅还是规定她得去上学。
