第32章 病房里的舞会（第3页）

“为什么要这样做？我今天不能回家吗？我已经有一件了。”

她关上门离开了。

尽管我不想再穿一件，但还是听了她的话。

也许在我出院前要做Ｘ光或其他检查。

突然间，门开了，父母拿着气球和录音机出现在我面前，同时还有我那两个最好的朋友和她们的舞伴，他们都穿得很正式，还有穿着半正式晚礼服的里克。

“可以和我跳支舞吗？”

里克邀请我说，“虽然错过了训练队的舞会，但并不意味着我们不能在这儿跳舞。”

我顿时满眼泪水。

“当然。”

我吞吞吐吐地说。

那位护士把窗帘合上，只打开浴室的灯。

我的朋友们双双跳起了舞，里克也搂住我的腰，随着音乐翩翩起舞。

“我很高兴你恢复了健康。”

他说，“每晚，我都会给你父母打电话问你的消息。”

“他们没有跟我说。”

我整了整头发，希望别太乱。

他笑着说：“不用担心，你看起来很漂亮。”

我们大概跳了好几个钟头，根本不在乎走廊中旁观的人，还有在旁边跳着舞的父母。

我穿着两件极不正式的病号服，但我并不介意。

音乐结束了，里克把我扶到轮椅上，推我下了楼，又把我扶进接我回家的豪华轿车里。

我永远无法忘记所经历的那个下午。

没有美丽的头发，也没有华丽的礼服，但我体会到了真正的美丽——被爱。
