我最大的担心是你也许跟我当初嫁给你爸爸一样,为了错误的原因而嫁给马克。 当年我和你爸爸相遇时,在我眼中,他可爱、 聪明、富有魅力又善解人意。
一切都是那么新鲜、那么令人兴奋。而且我们两人都认为,我们的婚姻是理想婚姻,至少表面上看是如此,而且一切迹象都表明我们的婚姻会天长地久。
直到后来我才明白,在我们结婚时,我并不十分理解我所爱的人——你的爸爸。”
“但是我和马克呆在一起已有两年多了,”盖尔抱怨道。 “我们俩一起经历了许许多多的事情。 我们彼此多次看到对方最糟糕的一面。
我可以肯定时间只能证明我们是彼此深情相爱的。”
“你也许是对的。但我还是认为再等一等没坏处。你才25岁。” 盖尔的父亲戴维——我还未见过他的面——以知事莫若父的态度对待我们的决定。
他问的问题基本上和盖尔母亲的问题相同:“干吗这么匆忙?这个马克是什么人?他是什么公民身份?”
当他得知我办公民身份遇到了问题时,就怀疑我是因为想留在美国而娶他女儿的。
“不过爸爸,你这话讲得太难听了,”盖尔说。 “那么干吗要这样着急?”他重复地问。
“马克是有公民身份方面的问题,但他总是在自己处理这些问题,”盖尔辩解道。
“事实上,当我们在讨论结婚的时候,他清楚地表明了一点:如果我对任何事情有怀疑,我完全可以取消我们的计划。”
她父亲开始引用统计数据说明异族通婚的离婚率比同族结婚的要高,而且还列举了接受过他咨询的、在婚姻上有麻烦的异族通婚夫妇的例子。
他问道:“你考虑过你将来的孩子可能会遭受的苦难吗?” “爸爸,你是种族主义者吗?” “不,当然不是。
但你必须得现实一点。”
“也许我们的孩子会遇到一些问题。但谁的孩子不会呢? 可是有一样东西他们将会永远拥有,那就是我们的爱。”
