兒子還小時有個習慣,睡覺一定要握著我的手指頭。
他躺著,我也躺著,只是我還醒著。
有幾次偷偷拿他的小熊娃娃取代我的手指頭,
兒子總能奇異的發覺——睜開眼,望著我。
(不禁懷疑他是真的睡著了,還是在測試我?)
無論如何,我還是乖乖的把手指放回去,
希望兒子也能乖乖入睡。
When my son was little, he had a habit - he had to hold my fingers when he slept.
He lay on the bed and so did I; only that I was awake.
A few times, I stealthily replaced my fingers with his little teddy bear.
But whenever I did it, he could always sense it and open his eyes, staring at me. (It’s such a mystery that made me wonder whether he did fall asleep or was just testing me.)
No matter what, I obediently put my fingers back, hoping that my son would fall sound asleep.
