《The Dog Park Regulars》封面

Every evening, Soraya walks her dog to the park. The park is near her building. Around six o'clock, another dog always runs straight to play with hers. The dog's owner is a young man named Dash.

每天傍晚,索拉亚都会带她的狗去公园。公园离她住的楼很近。大约六点钟,总会有另一只狗径直跑来和她的狗玩。那只狗的主人是个叫达什的年轻男人。

Soraya and Dash never really talk. They just wave and watch their dogs play together every evening.

索拉亚和达什从来没有真正聊过天。每天傍晚,他们只是挥挥手,看着两只狗一起玩耍。

One evening, it is time to leave. Both owners clip leashes onto their dogs in the dark. Soraya picks up the wrong leash by mistake.

一天傍晚,到了该走的时候。两位主人在黑暗中给各自的狗系上牵引绳。索拉亚拿错了牵引绳。

She notices only when the dog beside her stops and sits down. "Wait," Dash calls out. "I think that's my dog's leash." Soraya looks down, confused.

直到身边的那只狗停下来坐在地上,她才发觉。“等等,”达什喊道,“我觉得那是我的狗的牵引绳。”索拉亚低头一看,一脸困惑。

She sees a different color leash in her hand. "Oh no, you're right," she says, laughing. "I'm so sorry about that."

她看到手里的牵引绳颜色不一样。“哎呀,你说得对,”她笑着说,“真不好意思。”

They switch leashes and laugh about the mix-up. "Well, now we actually know each other," Dash says.

他们换回了牵引绳,为这次弄混的事笑了起来。“好了,现在我们算真正认识了。”达什说。

"I'm Soraya," she says, holding out her hand. "I'm Dash," he says, shaking it with a smile.

“我是索拉亚。”她说着伸出手。“我是达什。”他笑着和她握了握手。

From that evening, they walk to the park together every day. Their dogs still run ahead of them, just like before.

从那天傍晚起,他们每天一起走去公园。他们的狗还是跑在前面,就和以前一样。
