Chinese online short story 罪恶有痕 Traces of Sin (Intermediate to Advanced)

罪恶有痕 54  
刘明天走后,庄力群打开了信封。
原来,那是父亲给他写的。
父亲显然还不知道儿子出大事了。
When Liu Mingtian left, Zhuang Liqun opened the envelope .
It was actually from his Father.
Obviously he didn’t know what happened to him.
Liú míngtiān zŏu hòu, zhuāng lì qún dăkāi le xìnfēng。
yuánlái, nàshi fùqīn gěi tā xiě de。
fùqīn xiănrán hái bù zhīdào érzi chū dàshì le。
 
还告诉他自己就快刑满释放了。
说就要与他见面了。
庄力群忍不住湿眼。
His father told him that he almost finished his service in the prison
and would re-gain his freedom.
He said they would re-unite soon.
Zhuang Liqun couldn’t help but let tears welled up his eyes.
hái gàosu tā zìjĭ jiù kuài xíngmăn shìfàng le。
shuō jiùyào yŭ tā jiànmiàn le。
zhuāng lì qún rěnbuzhù shī yăn。
 
他想,刘明天没有把真相告诉父亲,
是不想让他出狱前受刺激。
He thought that Liu Mingtian didn’t tell his father about his trial
because he didn’t want to sadden him before his release.
tā xiăng, Liú míngtiān méiyŏu bă zhēnxiàng gàosu fùqīn,
shì bùxiăng ràng tā chūyù qián shòu cìjī。
 
   
在庄贵祥被释放的早晨,
刘明天,文素云和庄贵祥的弟弟
静静地等候在监狱门口.
On the morning that Zhuang Guixiang was finally released,
Liu Mingtian, Wen Suyun and Zhuang Guixiang’s brother
were waiting quietly outside the prison.
zài zhuāng guì xiáng bèi shìfàng de zăochén,
Liú míngtiān, wén sù yún hé zhuāng guì xiáng de dìdi
jìng jìng de děnghòu zài jiānyù ménkŏu.
 
庄贵祥拎着属于自己的那一点物品,
忐忑地走出了大门.
五十来岁的他, 已是一头白发.
Zhuang Guixiang carried all that he had
and stepped outside of the prison anxiously.
He was in his 50’s though his hair was all gray.
zhuāng guì xiáng līn zhe shŭyú zìjĭ de nà yīdiăn wùpĭn,
tăntè de zŏuchū le dàmén.
wŭshí lái suì de tā, yĭ shì yītóu báifà.
 
他看到了文素云,
弟弟和那个来看过他的警察.
他心中涌起一股温暖.
他向他们走来, 向他们身后寻找,
但他们中唯一缺了那个他日夜思念的儿子.
He saw Wen Suyun,
his brother, and the police officer who had visited him.
Warm feelings filled up his body instantly.
He walked toward them, he glanced over their back,
he couldn’t spot the son that he had missed so much!
 tā kàn dàoliăo wén sù yún,
dìdi hé nàge láikàn guò tā de jĭngchá.
tā xīnzhōng yŏngqĭ yī gŭ wēnnuăn.
tā xiàng tāmen zŏu lái, xiàng tāmen shēnhòu xúnzhăo,
dàn tāmen zhōng wéiyī quē le nàge tā rìyè sīniàn de érzi.
 
   
他并不知道, 等待他的三个人,
此时比他还要忐忑和紧张,
他们已准备好将实情告诉他,
准备好面对他的崩溃,
准备好同心同力帮他走过黑暗,
重新开始新的生活.
He didn’t know that the three were even more anxious and nervous than himself.
They’ve been preparing to tell him the truth,
to face his desperation upon hearing the truth,
and to help him get out of the darkness and start a new life.
tā bìngbù zhīdào, děngdài tā de sān gèrén,
cĭshí bĭ tā hái yào tăntè hé jĭnzhāng,
tāmen yĭ zhŭnbèi hăo jiāng shíqíng gàosu tā,
zhŭnbèi hăo miànduì tā de bēngkuì,
zhŭnbèi hăo tóngxīn tóng lì bāng tā zŏuguò hēi’àn,
chóngxīnkāishĭ xīn de shēnghuó.
