| “ | Renault ne mendie pas. Renault was not just in need of charity Il reste simplement assis en tailleur, les mains posées sur ses cuisses, le buste bien droit, le regard fixé devant lui, légèrement à gauche. He stayed there ,legs crossed,hands on the thighs,but his torso was uprightand his eyes gazed sometimes straight ahead and sometimes a little to the left of him. Il ne s'occupe pas des voitures ni des gens. He was not thinking about either cars nor people. Mais il n'est pas indifférent non plus. Neither was he indifferent . De temps en temps, il relève ses yeux, et son regard va droit vers quelqu'un, au hasard. From time to time,almost at random ,his eyes stopped gazing in any one direction but stared at someone (just anybody, really). C'est évident qu'il n'attend personne. Obviously he wasn't waiting for anybody '''Quand la jeune fille est venue, il l'a regardée, et elle lui a souri gentiment.''' |
