One day, a young guy and a young girl fell in love. But the guy camefrom a poor family. Thegirl』s parents weren』t too happy. So the young mandecided not only to court the girl but tocourther parents as well. In time,the parents saw that he was a good man and was worthy oftheiraughter』s hand. 有一天，一個年輕小夥子和一位年輕姑娘墜入愛河。但小夥子出身貧寒。姑娘的父母不太樂意。所以年輕小伙決定不僅向女孩求愛，也向她父母請求。隨著時間推移，姑娘的父母發現這個小夥子很不錯，是值得女兒託付的人。

But there was another problem: The man was a soldier. Soon, warbroke out and he was

being sent overseas for a year. The week before he left,the man knelt on his knee and asked

his lady love, 「Will you marry me?」 She wipeda tear, said yes, and they were engaged. They

agreed that when he got back inone year, they would get married.

可是有一個問題：這個小夥子個士兵。不久戰爭爆發了，他被派往海外一年。在他離開

的前一禮拜，他跪到姑娘的面前向她懇求，「你願意嫁給我嗎?？姑娘擦了擦眼淚說願，於

是他們了訂婚了，說好等他一年後回來後就結婚。

But tragedy struck. A few days after he left, the girl had a major vehicularaccident. It was a

head-on collision. When she woke up in the hospital, she sawher father and mother crying.

Immediately, she knew that he must had been badlyinjured.

但悲劇發生了。就在他離開在幾天後，姑娘遇上車輛迎頭相撞的重大車禍。當她醒來的

時候她躺在了醫院，看到父母親在哭泣，她意立刻識到自己傷得不輕。

She later found out that she suffered brain injury. The part of herbrain that controlled her f

ace muscles was damaged. Her once lovely face wasnow disfigured. She cried as she saw

herself in the mirror. 「Yesterday, I wasbeautiful. Today, I』m a monster.」 Her body was also

covered with so many uglywounds. Right there and then, she decided to release her fiancé

from theirpromise. She knew he wouldn』t want her anymore. She would forget about him and

never see him again.

後來，她發現她自己是腦損傷。控制她的臉部肌肉的那部分大腦受損，她那張人見人愛

的臉現在毀了。在鏡子里看到自己樣子，她不禁痛哭起來。「昨天我是美麗的。今天卻成了

醜八怪」。她渾身都是可怕的傷口。此時此刻，她決定背離他倆許下的承諾，離開她的未婚

夫。她心想他是不會要她了，她要忘了他，再也不見他。

For one year, the soldier wrote many letters — but she wouldn』t answer. He phoned her

many times but she wouldn』t return her calls.

一年之中，這位士兵小夥子給她寫了許多信，她就是不回復。他給她打許多次電話，她

也不回電話。

But after one year, the mother walked into her room and announced,「He』s back from the

war.」The girl shouted, 「No! Please don』t tellhim about me. Don』t tell him I』m here!」

一年後，母親走進她的房間告訴她說，「他已從戰場上回來了」。姑娘大聲說道。「不!

不要把我的情況告訴他，別告訴他我在這裡。」

The mother said, 「He』s getting married,」 and handed her a weddinginvitation. The girl』s

heart sank. She knew she still loved him — but she hadto forget him now. With great sadness,

she opened the wedding invitation. Andthen she saw her name on it!

母親又對她說，「他要結婚了」，說著遞給她一個婚禮請帖。姑娘的心碎了，她知道自

己還愛著他，可是現在她必須忘了他。懷著較大悲傷，她打開了婚禮請帖，赫然看到請帖上

寫著她的名字!

Confused, she asked, 「What is this?」

「怎麼回事？」她困惑不已。

That was when the young man entered her room with a bouquet offlowers. He knelt beside

her and asked, 「Will you marry me?」

就在這時候，這位年輕小夥子拿一束鮮花走進了她的房間。他跪在她身旁問道：「你

願意嫁給我嗎?」

The girl covered her face with her hands and said, 「I』m ugly!」

姑娘用手掌捂著臉說，「我丑!」

The man said, 「Without your permission, your mother sent me yourphotos. When I saw

yourphotos, I realized that nothing has changed. You』restill the person I fell in deep love.

You』re still as beautiful as ever.Because I love you!」

小夥子答道，「沒有問你的允許，你媽媽把你的照片寄給了我。我看到你的照片，我

想沒有什麼可改變的，你仍然是我深愛的人。你還是像以前一樣美麗，因為我愛你!」
