The Smile

摘要

I was sure that I was to be killed.l became terribly nervous.l fumbled in my pockets to see if there were any cigarettes,which had escaped their search.l found one and because of my shaking hands,l could barely get it to my lips.But I had no matches,they had taken those.“I looked through the bars at my jailer.He did not make eye contact with me.l called out to him ”Have you got a light?“ He looked at me,shrugged and came over to light my cigarette.”
