English Original
Two sisters maintained a bitter feud for three decades. On Matilda's 70th birthday, Alice felt a sharp pang of remorse, but the feeling quickly faded.
Later, upon hearing that Matilda had fallen ill, Alice felt compelled to visit. Matilda looked sternly at her younger sister.
Finally, in a faint voice, she said, "The doctors say I'm seriously ill, Alice. If I pass away, I want you to know you are forgiven. But if I pull through, things stay as they are!"

一对姐妹的激烈不和持续了三十年。在玛蒂尔达七十岁生日那天，爱丽丝感到一阵强烈的懊悔，但这种感觉很快就消退了。
后来，当爱丽丝听说玛蒂尔达生病时，她感到必须去探望。玛蒂尔达严厉地看着她的妹妹。
最后，她用微弱的声音说道：“医生说我病得很重，爱丽丝。如果我离世，我希望你知道你已被原谅。但如果我康复了，一切照旧！”
