So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store as usual. He bought a CD like he did every day and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn't looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out...
第二天，他终于鼓起了勇气，像往常一样走进了音像店，买了一张CD，她也像往常一样，到后面去替他包起来。他接过CD，趁她不注意时将自己的电话号码放在柜台上，然后跑了出去……
RRRRRING!!!
叮铃铃铃!!!
One day the phone rang, and the mother picked it up and said, “Hello?”
有一天，电话铃响了，母亲接起电话：“喂?”
It was the girl!!! The mother started to cry and said, “You don't know? He passed away yesterday...”
是那个女孩打来的!!!母亲伤心地哭了，她说：“你不知道吗？他昨天死了……”
The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy's mother. Later in the day, the mother went into the boy's room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet.
电话线那端沉默了，只能听到母亲的抽泣声。那天晚些时候，母亲来到儿子的房间，她想念儿子了，就想看看他的衣服，于是打开了衣柜。
She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all these CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one.
母亲看到的是衣柜里一大堆包好的CD，这些CD都没有打开过。母亲大吃一惊。她坐在床边，打开了一个包装。
Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
从包装盒中拿出CD时，盒里掉出一张小纸条，她拾了起来，上面写道：嗨，你好，我觉得你真的很可爱，愿意和我一起出去吗？乔斯林。
The mother was deeply moved and opened another CD...
母亲深受感动，她又打开了一个CD盒……
Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi... I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jocelyn.
里面仍有一张小纸条，上面都写着同样的话：嗨，你好，我觉得你真的很可爱，愿意和我一起出去吗？乔斯林。
Love is... when you've had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, “I Love You.”
爱是什么？当你作了巨大的思想斗争，最终决定抛开一切束缚时，那就攥紧手，说出“我爱你”。
