How True Love Found Me | 真爱如何降临

English Original

Hi! My name is Ashley. When I met Bryan during the last year in college, it was "ugh" at first sight. I thought he was a good-looking jock who acted kind of cocky, which only made him seem more charming. I later found out he thought I was a suck-up because I was focused on studying and wanted to graduate as an A student. He practically avoided me wherever I showed up.

At that time, he had a girlfriend, but they soon broke up. I saw how much it changed him and wanted to help him get over it because I knew how that felt after a split. I started a casual conversation with him one day, and he ended up talking about the break-up. I told him I was sorry, and he was impressed that I cared. I was surprised that this "big man on campus" actually had a heart and feelings to express. Thus, we became friends.

At a party, we danced for the first time to Usher's "My Way." We just clicked... a sparkle ran between us, and we both lit up. Without even talking, we let each other know there was more than friendship between us. I felt drawn to him, and he felt the same. Soon, we became a couple.

He became patient and understanding about the things important to me, like school and my grades. Now we work at different places, but we make plenty of time to see each other, loyally attending each other's family events and gatherings. I love him, and how this love appeared doesn't matter to me.


中文翻译

嗨!我叫艾希莉。大学最后一年我遇到了布莱恩,起初是“呃”的一见钟情。我觉得他是个英俊的运动健将,有点自大,但这反而让他更有魅力。后来我才发现,他认为我是个马屁精,因为我专注于学习,想以全A成绩毕业。他几乎在我出现的任何地方都躲着我。

那时他有个女朋友,但不久他们就分手了。我看到这对他改变很大,想帮他走出来,因为我知道分手后的感受。有一天,我找他随意聊了聊,结果他谈起了分手的事。我告诉他我很难过,他很感动我关心他。我惊讶地发现,这位“校园风云人物”其实也有心、有感情可以表达。就这样,我们成了朋友。

在一次派对上,我们第一次随着亚瑟小子的《My Way》共舞。我们就这样一拍即合……一道火花在我们之间闪过,我们都容光焕发。甚至无需言语,我们就让彼此明白,我们之间不止是友谊。我感到被他吸引,他也有同感。很快,我们成了一对。

他对我生活中重要的事情,比如学业和成绩,变得耐心而理解。现在我们在不同的地方工作,但我们会抽出大量时间见面,忠诚地参加彼此的家庭活动和聚会。我爱他,至于这份爱如何出现,对我来说并不重要。
