Hoffman, who suffered from not knowing her own divorced father until she was ten, encouraged Jobs to be a better father.
霍夫曼小時候因父母離異，直到10歲才知道父親是誰，那是段痛苦的成長經歷，因此她鼓勵喬布斯努力做一個好父親。
He followed her advice, and later thanked her for it.
喬布斯聽從了她的建議，后來還為此而感激她。
Once he took Lisa on a business trip to Tokyo, and they stayed at the sleek and businesslike Okura Hotel.
有一次他出差去東京時帶上了麗薩，他們住在時尚兼具商務風格的大倉酒店。
At the elegant downstairs sushi bar, Jobs ordered large trays of unagi sushi,
一樓有間雅致的壽司餐吧，喬布斯要了大盤大盤的鰻魚壽司，
a dish he loved so much that he allowed the warm cooked eel to pass muster as vegetarian.
他非常喜歡，甚至破了一下葷戒。
The pieces were coated with fine salt or a thin sweet sauce,
壽司上包裹著精鹽或薄薄的甜醬，
and Lisa remembered later how they dissolved in her mouth.
麗薩還記得那種入口即化的感覺。
So, too, did the distance between them. As she later wrote,
他們父女之間的距離也隨之融化了。后來她寫道：
"It was the first time I'd felt, with him, so relaxed and content, over those trays of meat;
“那是第一次，我跟他在一起，面對一盤盤的肉食，
the excess, the permission and warmth after the cold salads, meant a once inaccessible space had opened.
感覺那么放松和滿足；冷沙拉后那種豐盛、縱容和溫曖的感受，意味著曾經封閉的空間被打開了。
He was less rigid with himself, even human under the great ceilings with the little chairs, with the meat, and me."
他一個人時沒那么嚴肅了，在那大大的屋頂下坐在小小的椅子上，跟那些肉食，跟我在一起，從神變成了人。”
But it was not always sweetness and light.
然而，事情并非總是那么甜蜜輕松。
Jobs was as mercurial with Lisa as he was with almost everyone, cycling between embrace and abandonment.
喬布斯對麗薩跟對其他幾乎所有人一樣善變。擁抱和冷落總是在循環上演。
On one visit he would be playful; on the next he would be cold; often he was not there at all.
這次他可能玩得很高興，下次他就可能很冷漠或根本不用心。
