我从他们身边走，最后被人海淹没了
I stopped, glancing behind me at the road,wishing that the bus would appear now, that would scoop me up and take me away. The it anything would happen. A small earthquake maybe.
我停下脚步，凝望这我身后的路，希望公交车出现在我的面前将我带走，或者其它别的事情发生例如一个小小的地震。
I felt a huge lump in my throat, and swallowed it.
我觉得我的喉咙卡住了一个巨大的埂块，但我吞下了。
minutes ticked slowly past.
