I can't believe, sometimes, that granny is dead. If I close my eyes I can just see her knitting away in that armchair as large as life, with her specs half-way down her nose. 有時我真不相信祖母經去世。只要我閉上眼睛，就會看她活生生地坐在一把扶椅上，眼鏡掛在鼻樑上，手裡織著毛線衣。
But I saw him myself in a disco as large as life, dancing with a girl half his age. 可是我在一家迪斯科舞會上親眼看到他，千真萬確，他在和一個年齡只他一半大的姑娘跳舞。
