Shortly after That

          A boy asked his mother (or father), “What is COVID-19? Why don’t people like to talk about it?” His mother (or father) touched his large eyes and said, “It’s a blessing. You were born shortly after COVID-19 started.”

          A girl asked her father (or mother), “What is war? Why don’t people like to talk about it?” Her father (or mother) touched her deep dimples and said, “It’s a blessing. You were born shortly after the war started.”

          Crime, misfortune, and so on…

不久之后

           一个小男孩问他的母亲(或父亲):“什么是新冠疫情?为什么没人喜欢谈它?”他的母亲(或父亲)抚了下他大大的眼睛说:“新冠是赐福。它开始后不久你就出生了。”

          一个小女孩问她的父亲(或母亲):“什么是战争?为什么没人喜欢谈它?”她的父亲(或母亲)抚了下她深深的酒窝说:“战争是赐福。它开始后不久你就出生了。”

          遭遇罪行、不幸,等等…
