tea. I looked around. The apartment was huge. There were nice canvases
on the wall, a bookshelf full of magazines with glazing covers, crystal
vases of different shapes. Suddenly my eyes landed on the frames on the
top of the fireplace. They were pictures of Sophie and her girlfriend
doing all sorts of things: surfing, fishing, hiking, on a cruise. I felt
sore in my nose.

in a few places from our love making. I ran my fingers through her lock
trying to smooth it up.
“I dreamed about this happening.” She suddenly announced. I looked into
her eyes, amused. “I had hoped this would happen,” she closed her eyes
tight.
I started kissing her again, her eyes, her ears, her nose, her lips…
It must have been hours before we finally got up. We were both starving.

y********k 发帖数: 677 | 6 I was elated for a couple of days. I even made a romantic dinner for
Sarah. I almost convinced myself I did it for her sake, maybe out of
guilt. But the whole time I was thinking about Sophie and I didn’t feel
for a second it
was wrong.
Two weeks passed without a word from Sophie. I began to worry. Did she
forget me already? I thought about stopping by her apartment. But what if
Ellen was there? It wasn’t like we were good friends who paid regular
visits to each other.
I was ready to give it up |

s********n 发帖数: 359 | 9 麻煩作者解釋一下這句里的nemesis這個詞,啥意思:
“I got to know lots of people through Sarah. Some were her friends, some
nemeses and the rest exes.”
字典里nemesis基本仨意思:1,the inescapable or implacable agent of someone's
or something's downfall;
2, a downfall caused by such an agent; 3, (often Nemesis) retributive
justice
但是貌似你這句子里的nemeses和上述意思都不一樣。

everywhere we could, in the park, on the train, in women’s fitting room.
You name it. There were times we’d sneak out of a party for a quickie in a
nearby motel. She became my addiction and I hers. (Sometimes I'd wonder
what we had was love or lust. Was I ever really in love with her? But
whatever the answer is it did not matter any longer.)

It was early summer. My affair with Sophie had been going on for three
months. We decided to celebrate with a field trip. We found a quiet
place. I lay my head on Sophie's shoulder, my arms around her waist. The
sunlight shone on my face, warm and gentle. She caressed my hair, loving
and caring. We sat there for hours.
“Do you still love her?” suddenly I asked. Sophie had made me promise to
never ask about Ellen. I had given her my word but I felt an urge to

sent my heart right on the brink of an abyss.
I waited impatiently at the coffee shop. Five minutes, ten minutes,
fifteen minutes! Finally she showed up. She looked weary and frail. She
