Letter one
第一封信
One evening last month, I was visiting a close friend in her new high-rise flat when she accidentally knocked a flowerpot from her window.
上个月的一天晚上，我在密友的高层公寓大楼内拜访她，当时她从窗户不小心打翻了花盆。
It smashed to the ground below, narrowly missing some children at play.

On our way out, we stopped to take a look, but no one was hurt, so we said nothing and left for the cinema as planned.

他们坐在孤独一人的小男孩的旁边，开始嘲弄欺侮他。
Their behaviour was so bad that it made him move to another seat, but that did no good.
他们的行为过于恶劣，小男孩只好坐到另一个座位上，但是还是无济于事。
They just followed him and continued their bullying.
他们紧跟着小男孩，不停地嘲弄欺侮他。
The boy was obviously frightened.
显然，小男孩很害怕。
At this point, I stopped looking and got off at my station, feeling sorry for the boy.
到站后，我没再看了，下了车，为小男孩感到难过。
I regret not helping him, but not being Superman and hating violence, what could I do? Should I...
我后悔没能帮他，但我不是超人，又憎恨暴力，我能做什么呢？我能……
