我迅速放低身子，低下头避免直视他的眼睛，这样他就不会觉得我在挑衅他。

“你早就知道的。”我提醒他，不由得垂下了头。

My ducking my head like this whenever he reaches for me is a kind of hiding—I'm avoiding a simple goodnight kiss. But it's also a kind of not-hiding, too.

每当他探手过来时，我便这么低下头，这是一种回避——我在回避简简单单的睡前之吻，却同时也是一种不回避。

Typically, I enter their world by climbing up a rickety, twisting wooden staircase, ducking to avoid bumping my head in the near-total darkness.

我常常在一片漆黑中沿着摇晃曲折的木制楼梯往上走，还要低着头以免撞到什么东西，最后才进入他们的世界。
