第1回
公平?(forfear翻译)
我不喜欢我的弟弟托比。他总是做令人憎恶的坏事,但看起来从没真正遇到麻烦。萨姆叔叔和黛布拉婶婶不主张打屁股。我听他们说打屁股不能让孩子从错误中得到教训。因此,托比逃脱了所有惩罚。他从没有因为什么事情受到惩罚,当然也从没被打过屁股。
爸爸有和萨姆叔叔差不多的主张。但我妈妈不同意他们关于打屁股的想法。她打过我很多次,在赤裸的光屁股上,有时甚至用她的发刷。啊!然而,爸爸仅仅因为我撒谎打过我一次屁股。我甚至不能称它为一次打屁股,那只是三下在我牛仔裤后的轻轻拍打。它没有真正弄疼我甚至没有留下痕迹(我检查过)。事实上,我把爸爸弄得非常生气的事实比他轻轻地打屁股更让我难受。
托比能得到任何他想要的东西。这一年他十岁了,萨姆叔叔给他买了一把玩具枪。当托比拿给我看是,我知道他有了这把玩具枪不会有什么好事发生。
你看,托比是残忍的,他嘲笑牧场上的动物。他追赶猫咪,向马和奶牛扔石块,仅仅是为了让他们跑起来。又一次,他甚至用电击打那只狗,仅是为了看会有什么发生。他知道自己不会被惩罚。因此,托比有了一把枪不是一个好消息。
有一天萨姆叔叔和爸爸在修拖拉机的发动机,我打算去草场看看马,我喜欢看马,一匹小马驹在刚刚过去的春天里出生。
我正在走的时候,忽然听到一声痛苦的尖叫,使我停住了脚步。我向田地里看去,有一次听到了尖叫。我跑向了草场,看到了拿着枪的托比。他想小马驹瞄准并向它射击。每一次小马驹被击中,它都叫喊,跳跃。托比会等上几秒钟,然后有一次开火。我感到怒火从我胸中喷发。我寻找萨姆叔叔,爸爸或者任意一个成年人,但一个也没找到。即使我只有八岁,但我决定要给托比上一课。
“嗨,托比,”我叫道,“我能试试你的枪吗?”
“哦,哦,不。它是我的,你不能用它。”托比冷笑道。
“哦,来吧,就一次。”
“好吧,只能射击一次,然后你得把它还给我因为这是我的枪。”
“无论怎么样,”我嘀咕道。
当托比把枪递给我时,我首先想到的是将它重重的砸向栅栏。男孩,这会使他发疯的。但我又想到了小马驹,我的怒火又一次升起。我想出了一个新计划。
“这个东西可以射击吗?”
“哦,是的。我得给它打气。”托比拿起枪,打了几下。然后又给了我。“只能射击一次,”他有一次说。
我看着枪,看了一分钟,然后轻轻的举起,非常认真地想着。
“哦,赶快射击,”托比说,“我不能等一天。”我举起枪,径直指向托比。
“嗨,别用那东西对着我,”托比叫道。我什么也没说但我也没放下枪。
“别用那东西对着我,”托比又一次说,开始后退。很快,栅栏挡住了他的路。“停下!马西!停下!”托比听起来害怕了。
“哦,对不起,”我说,没有放下武器。“当你被从这东西中发出的子弹击中时你会疼吗?”
“是的,当然疼,把它还给我。”
“你害怕了吗?”
“把它还给我。”托比的声音现在听起来极度绝望。
我平静的说,“我要让你尝尝被这东西射中的滋味,你这个坏东西。”
“不!别!爸爸!”托比大叫道。
“我数到三,”听起来像我妈妈,“一…二…”
“马其顿!”一声巨响使我差点从我的皮肤中跳出来。我环视四周,看见萨姆叔叔向我们跑来。
“你究竟认为你在做什么?”萨姆叔叔问道,从我手中猛然抢走了枪。
“爸爸,”托比叫道,“他要向我射击。”
突然,萨姆叔叔把枪扔到了地上,抓住了我的胳膊,向我的屁股上狠狠打了十多下。我的短裤没起到什么保护作用,我因疼痛而大叫。
然后,萨姆叔叔将我转过来面对他,大嚷道,“这是一件非常危险的事,你现在回到房中,立刻回去!”
我没有动,我被吓住了,我刚刚被萨姆叔叔打了屁股,并且当着托比的面。“就现在!”萨姆叔叔嚷道。
我使我的脚移动了几步,我冲上了小山,走向了房子。我跑上楼到了我们的客房。萨姆叔叔刚打了我的屁股。萨姆叔叔刚打了我的屁股!我不敢相信。我走向了镜子看看损伤(我每次被打屁股后都这么做)。我看到几个大的手印在我的屁股上,但没什么严重的。我妈妈曾多次把我的屁股打得比这红得多。
我把我的短裤提起,走到窗户边向下看。我看到萨姆叔叔,爸爸,托比在交谈。我感到一阵恐惧。爸爸将会做什么呢?我当然不想再次被打屁股了。我刚被狠狠地打了屁股。当我往下看时,托比抬起了他的头看到了我,发出了醉邪恶的坏笑。我不知道该想些什么。爸爸忽然转身向房屋走来。我可以听到他上楼的声音,我坐在床上等待。他将会做什么呢?而后他进到屋中。当我看向他的脸,我看到了我从没见过的脸色。他表情严肃,目光紧张的盯着我,让我不寒而栗,低头看向地板。
“我想知道为什么,”他咬紧牙关说。
我张开嘴但什么也没说出口。眼泪开始从我的脸颊上流下,我想告诉他托比做了些什么,但我含糊的用小孩子经常使用的方式回答道,“我不知道。”
爸爸转身进入了浴室,我没有动,仍然坐在床上。他去的时间看起来像一生那么久,他在做什么?他在想什么?后来他从浴室走出来,我哭得更厉害了,并害怕的喘息。爸爸挽起了他的袖子,我知道他来了,爸爸要打我的屁股。我又要被打屁股了!
他慢慢地说:“你犯的错误是不可原谅的,愚蠢的,危险的,”我已经教过你不要那么做,永远不要用枪指着人,现在你要被惩罚,我要打你的屁股。
现在我说话了,我开始恳求,“不,爸爸,不要,萨姆叔叔已经打了我的屁股,狠狠地,当着托比的面。”
“我不管萨姆叔叔做了,”什么爸爸严肃的说,“我现在要打你屁股。”
“爸爸,爸爸,请不要!”我哭得更厉害了,“我不会再这样做了,我保证!我错了!”我的眼泪像尼亚加拉大瀑布一样流下,“请不要打我的屁股,我错了!”
爸爸拉出一张椅子坐下,说:“过来!”
我没有动,我动不了,“爸爸,请不要,我非常非常非常非常抱歉,我不会再这么做了,我发誓,我错了,我错了,我错了!”
“不要让我来抓你,过来,现在就过来!”
我没有动,r然后爸爸突然站起来,以闪电般的速度跨过了屋子,抓住了我的胳膊,把我拉到椅子边上,我啜泣,乞求,辩解着。
爸爸在那把可恶的椅子上坐下,以一个迅速的动作将我的短裤和内裤脱到了我的脚踝,当他粗鲁的将我扔到他的膝盖伤势,我的哭声更大了。出于某种原因,我想他能否看到萨姆叔叔在我的屁股上留下的掌印。
爸爸重复说:“马西,你永远不许用枪指着别人,”说着,他的手掌落下。
我发出可怕的尖叫声,我妈妈从没有第一下这么重的打过我,甚至用发刷时也没有。我开始试图推开他,但他强壮的手迅速按住了我。下一掌打到了我的光屁股上,甚至比第一掌更重,他的手一次又一次地抬起,落下,抬起,落下。啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!我扭动着,用力弹跳着,翻滚着,转动着,踢打着,但爸爸很强壮不只是在这一方面。
啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!我尖叫着,他的手在我的屁股上留下了印记,火辣的感觉向我整个赤裸的屁股蔓延。
打屁股在继续,一下又一下,我数到20就数不下去了。但是拍打仍在继续。他打的每一下,我都大声喊叫。我明白整个家里都清楚客房中在发生什么。我妈妈打我屁股从没像这次一样这么疼打这么长时间。这是我所经历的最痛苦的一次打屁股。啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!啪!
当我想我支撑不住了的时候,爸爸停下了。他让我站起来,抓住了我的胳膊。然后晃着我说:“不要再用枪指着别人,你听到了吗?不要在这么做。”
“是的,先生。”我尽力忍住啜泣。
“今晚不要从这间屋子出去。”爸爸站起来,头也不回地走出了屋子。当他重重的关上门时,我看到托比从走廊里走过。我扑到床上,再枕头上啜泣。很长一段时间后,我起来,走到镜子边上。萨姆叔叔的掌印已经被覆盖我整个屁股的一大片深红色代替。
我想我的屁股从没有那么红那么疼过,我四处寻找我的短裤和内裤,在混乱中,他们被踢到了房子的另一边。我走过去捡起他们,轻轻的穿上了裤子和内裤,然后我走回去趴在了床上。我为自己感到非常难过,对托比产生了可怕的敌意。
大约一个小时后,爸爸回到了屋中。这次他脸上轻松了些。他走了过来坐在了我旁边,轻轻地抚摸我的后背,我又开始哭了。
爸爸轻声说:“宝贝,我需要你告诉我发生了什么,你为什么要这样做。”
现在我说出实情,告诉了他全部。我告诉他托比总是残忍的对待小动物,这次,他用枪打小马驹。我告诉他我只是想让托比知道被子弹击中的滋味。
爸爸静静地听着,当我说完时,爸爸说:“你做的不对,枪很危险,你知道,比用枪指着别人更好的方法,你为什么不告诉萨姆叔叔或者黛布拉婶婶?我们将会处理这些。”
我耸耸肩,又一次将脸埋入枕头中。我不能告诉他他们不会对托比采取任何惩罚。我想让托比尝到小马驹受到的痛苦,但现在我是受苦的人。爸爸俯下身轻声说:“我想我该和萨姆叔叔好好谈谈。我爱你,宝贝。”
爸爸再次抚摸我的后背,起身。我看他走出了房间,然后走到窗户边上。几分钟后,我看到爸爸和萨姆叔叔在交谈。然后他们走到了马厩,看了看小马驹,交谈着。然后他们走回到房子这边。托比跑来迎接他们,仍然带着他的枪。萨姆叔叔从他手中夺过枪。透过窗户我不能很好的听到他们在说些什么,但我能听到萨姆叔叔的喊叫,用手指着托比。爸爸站在一旁观看。然后我非常清楚的听到萨姆叔叔喊道:“回到你的房间中!现在!”
托比跑了回去,我听到他沉重脚步声,而后听到他的房门重重的关上。我跑回到窗旁,爸爸和萨姆叔叔向房子走来,萨姆叔叔正抽出他的皮带。(forfear翻译)
原文:JUSTICE?
(A True Story by JLB)
I LOATHE my cousin, Toby. He was always doing bad and hateful things but never seemed to get into any real trouble. Uncle Sam and Aunt Debra didnt believe in “spanking.” I heard them say that spanking doesnt allow the child to learn from their mistakes. So, Toby got away with everything. He never had really been punished for anything and certainly had never been spanked.
Dad sort of believes the same as Uncle Sam. My mother doesnt share their beliefs about spanking. She had spanked me MANY times, bare bottom and sometimes with a hairbrush. ACK! However, Dad had only spanked me once for lying. Well, I wouldnt really call it a spanking. It was three medium swats on the back of my jeans. It didnt hurt or leave any marks (I checked). Actually, the fact I had made Dad so angry hurt me even more than his mild spanks.
Toby also gets everything he wants. This year he turned ten and Uncle Sam bought him a bb gun. When Toby showed it to me, I knew nothing good would come of him having it.
You see, Toby is MEAN! He teases the animals on the farm. He chases the cats and throws rocks at the horses and cows, just to make them run. Once, he even grabbed the electric fence and the family dog, just to shock her and to see what happened. He knew he wouldnt get shocked. So, Toby with a gun was bad news.
One day, while Uncle Sam and Dad were trying to fix the engine on the tractor, I decided to go to the pasture to see the horses. I liked watching the horses and a foal was born the past spring.
As I was walking, I heard a pitiful squeal which made me stop in my tracks. I looked towards the field and heard the squeal again. I started running to the pasture and saw Toby with his bb gun. He was pointing it at the foal and shooting it. Each time the foal was hit, it squealed and jumped away. Toby would then wait a few seconds and then fire again. I felt hot rage welling up inside me. I looked around for Uncle Sam or Dad or any other adult but I saw no one. Even though I was only eight, I decided that I was going to teach Toby a lesson.
“Hey, Toby,” I called. “Can I try your bb gun?”
“Uh-uh! No! Its mine and you cant have it,” Toby sneered.
“Oh, come on. Just once?”
“Well, just one shot. Then you have to give it back because its my gun!”
“Whatever,” I mumbled.
When Toby handed me the gun, my first thought was to bash it against the fence post. Boy, would that have made him mad. But then I thought about the foal and my anger fired up even more. I came up with a new plan.
“Is this thing ready to shoot?”
“Oh, yeah. Ive got to pump it up.” Toby took the gun and pumped it several times. Then he handed it back to me. “Just one shot,” he said again.
I looked at the gun for a minute, holding it loosely at my side, thinking, very carefully.
“Oh, come on Shoot already!” Toby said. “I dont have all day!” I brought the gun up and pointed it straight at Toby.
“Hey! Dont point that thing at me!” Toby shouted. I didnt say anything but I didnt lower it either.
“Dont point that thing at me!” Toby said again, and began to back up. Soon the fence blocked his way. “Quit it, Massie! QUIT IT!” Tobys voice was sounding more fearful.
“Oh, Im sorry,” I said, without lowering the weapon. “Does it hurt when you get hit by a bb from this thing?”
“Yeah, it hurts. Give it back.”
“Are you scared?”
“GIVE IT BACK!” Tobys voice was now extremely desperate.
I said evenly, “Im going to show you what it feels like to be shot by this thing, you ol meany!”
“NO! DONT! DAD!” Toby screamed.
“Im going to count to three”, sounding like my mother. “One… two… ”
“MACEDON!” A booming voice made me jump clear out of my skin. I whirled around and saw Uncle Sam was running to us.
“WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?” Uncle Sam demanded, yanking the gun from my hands.
”DAD!” Toby screamed. “HE WAS GOING TO SHOOT ME! ”
All of a sudden, Uncle Sam threw the gun on the ground and grabbed me by my arm. Then he delivered ten or more very hard whacks to my rear end. My shorts did little to protect me. I let out a loud yelp of pain.
Then Uncle Sam spun me back around towards him and yelled, “THAT WAS A VERY, VERY DANGEROUS THING YOU DID! YOU GET INTO THE HOUSE! RIGHT NOW!”
I didnt move. I was so shocked. I had just been spanked by Uncle Sam. AND in front of Toby! “NOW!!!!!” Uncle Sam shouted.
I made my feet move and within a few steps, I was sprinting up the hill towards the house. I ran upstairs to our guest bedroom. Uncle Sam had just spanked me. UNCLE SAM HAD JUST SPANKED ME! I couldnt believe it. I went over to the mirror to look at the damage (I did this every time I got spanked). I saw several large handprints on my backside but nothing really serious. My mother had made my bottom much redder many times before.
I pulled my shorts up, went over to the window and looked down. I saw Uncle Sam, Dad, and Toby talking. A wave of fear went through me. What was Dad going to do? Surely, I wasnt going to get spanked again. I had just been spanked. HARD! As I looked down, Toby slowly looked up at me and smiled a most EVIL smile. I didnt know what to think. Dad turned abruptly and headed toward the house. I could hear him coming up the stairs. I sat on the bed, waiting. What was he going to do? Then he was in the room. When I looked at his face, I saw something I had never seen before. His face was stern and his eyes were glaring with such intensity that I shuddered and looked down at the floor.
“I want to know why,” he said through gritted teeth. ”You know better. YOU KNOW BETTER!”
I opened my mouth but nothing came out. Tears started to run down my cheeks. I wanted to tell him what Toby had done, but I simply mumbled the classic child response, “I dont know.”
Dad turned and went i

nto the bathroom. I didnt move, still sitting on the bed. He was gone for what seemed like an eternity. What was he doing? What was he thinking? Then he came out of the bathroom and my eyes widened and I gasped with horror. Dad was pulling up his sleeves! I knew what was coming. DAD WAS GOING TO SPANK ME! I WAS GOING TO GET SPANKED AGAIN!
He said slowly, “What you did was inexcusable! And stupid. And Dangerous.” Ive taught you better than that. You never, EVER point a gun at anyone!. Now, you are going to be punished. I am going to spank you.
Now, I made my voice work. I pleaded, “NO, DAD! DONT! Uncle Sam already spanked me. HARD! And in front of Toby!”
“I dont care what Uncle Sam did,” Dad said sternly. “ I am going to spank you now.”
“Dad, Dad, PLEASE!” I really began to cry harder now. “I wont do it again! I PROMISE! Im SORRY!” My tears were flowing like Niagara Falls. ”PLEASE dont spank me! Im so sorry!“
Dad pulled out a desk chair and sat down. “Come here.”
I didnt move. I couldnt. “Dad, please. Im so, so, so sorry! I wont do it again. I SWEAR! Im sorry! Im Sorry! IM SORRY!”
“Dont make me come get you. COME HERE! NOW!”
I still didnt move. Then Dad suddenly got up, crossed the room at lighting speed, grabbed my arm and dragged me over to the chair. I was sobbing, begging, pleading.
Dad sat back down in that awful chair and in one swift motion, pulled my shorts and underwear down to my ankles. My cries intensified as he unceremoniously tossed me over his lap. For some reason, I wondered if he could see the handprints Uncle Sam had left on my bottom.
Dad repeated, “Massie, you NEVER, EVER point a gun at another human being. EVER!” And with that he let his hand fall!
I let out a horrific scream. My mother had never spanked this hard on the first strike, not even with the hairbrush. I began to push away from him but his strong grip held me fast. The next blow came and was even harder than the first! His hand rose and fell again, and again, and again, and again! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! I wiggled and bounced, and writhed, and twisted, and kicked but Dad was strong, in more ways than one.
WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! I screamed and screamed as his hand found its mark. Fire was exploding in my bottom.
The spanks kept coming, on and on and on. I lost count after about 20. And still Dad kept going. Each time his hand struck, I hollered. I was sure the whole house was aware of what was happening up here in the guest room. My mother had never spanked me this hard or for this long before. This was the worst spanking I had ever or would ever receive. WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP! WHAP!
When I thought I couldnt take any more, Dad stopped. He pulled me to my feet and gripped my arms. Then he shook me saying, “Dont you ever point a gun at anyone again. Do you hear me?!?! NEVER!”
“Ye-es, sssss-ir,” I managed to sputter through my sobs.
“Dont you dare come out of this room tonight!” Dad got up and walked out of the room without turning around. As he left slamming the door, I saw Toby take off down the hallway.
I flung myself on the bed and sobbed into a pillow. After a long while, I got up and went back to the mirror. Uncle Sams handprints had been replaced by a huge crimson splotch that covered my entire bottom.
I dont think my bottom has ever been that red or that sore. I looked around for my shorts and underwear. In the frenzy, they had been kicked across the room. I went over, picked them up and, very gently, put them back on. I then went back over and lay down on the bed (on my stomach, mind you). I felt very sorry for myself and a terrible, unrelenting hatred towards Toby.
About an hour later, Dad came back into the room. His face was softer this time. He came over and sat on the bed beside me. Then he began gently rubbing my back. I started to cry again.
Dad whispered, “Mass, I need you to tell me what happened and why you did what you did.”
Now, I found the voice to tell him everything. I told him how Toby was always being mean to the animals and that he was shooting the foal with the bb gun. I told him that I just wanted Toby to know what it felt like to be hit by a bb.
Dad listened quietly. When I finished Dad said, “What you did was wrong. Guns are dangerous. You know better than to point them at people. Why didnt you come and tell me or Uncle Sam or Aunt Debra? We would have taken care of it.”
I shrugged and buried in the pillow again. I couldnt tell him that I didnt think they would have done anything to Toby. That I had wanted Toby to suffer like the foal did. Now I was the one suffering. Dad leaned down and whispered, “I think I need to go have a word or two with Uncle Sam. I love you, Mass.”
Dad gave my back another rub and got up. I watched him walk out of the room and then went over to the window. In a few minutes, I saw Dad and Uncle Sam talking. Then they went out to the pasture and looked over the foal, pointing and talking. Then they came back towards the house. Toby ran to meet them, still carrying his bb gun. Uncle Sam snatched the gun out of Tobys hands. I couldnt hear very well what was said through the window but I could tell Uncle Sam was yelling, pointing, and shaking his finger at Toby. Dad stood by and watched. Then I heard, very clearly, Uncle Sam Shout, “GO TO YOUR ROOM! NOW!”
Toby ran. I heard him pounding up the stairs and then I heard his bedroom door slam. I turned back toward the window. Dad and Uncle Sam were coming into the house. Uncle Sam was taking off his belt!
