Children can make some pretty lofty statements and grand promises. And an 8-year-old boywho promised to get his dad his dream car was no exception — but then he actually madegood on his word.
孩子们会许下重大承诺,一名8岁的男孩也不例外,曾许诺要给父亲买一辆他最爱的车。然而他却实现了自己的诺言。
A Reddit user going by the username Belairboy wrote that when he was 8 years old, he told hisdad he would buy him a 1957 Chevy Bel Air on his 57th birthday.
美国社交新闻网站红迪网上一位昵称为“Belairboy” 的用户写道,在他8岁的时候,他告诉父亲要在他57岁生日那天送他一辆1957年的雪弗兰Bel Air。
“He grew up poor in a family of [seven] children. He never thought he would be able to own hisdream vehicle but would talk about it all the time,” Belairboy wrote.
“父亲成长于一个有7名孩子的穷苦家庭。他总是谈论他梦想的汽车,却从没想过自己可以拥有它。”Belairboy写道。
Then the day came.
到了他生日的那天。
He tricked his father to look in the garage while the older man was trying to fix a cornholeboard. When the dad finally looked up from his project and his son said, “happy birthday,” allthe father could say in a whimpering tone was “no,” as he tearfully went in for a hug.
父亲正要去修一块沙包板,Belairboy 想方设法让他去车库看一眼。当父亲看到那辆车时,他对父亲说“生日快乐”。父亲流着泪抱住他,啜泣着,除了“不”什么也说不出来。
