Jo's Choice
(From Little Women by Louisa May Alcott,Chapter 15)
Jo stood in the dark room,her hands shaking as she held the telegram(电报). Her mother,Marmee,looked worried after reading about Father's illness.
"I'll do it now," said Jo,trying to sound calm.
"What will you do?" asked Meg,her eyes full of worry.
"Tell Aunt March I'll go to Europe with her."
"Oh,Jo,no!" Meg cried,holding Jo's arm.
"I have to. This is the only way to get money for Marmee. Maybe I'll learn to be less selfish too."
Beth held Jo's dress and cried. "You'll hate it,Jo! You love writing,and Aunt March is so strict!"
"But Marmee needs help," Jo said. "If I go,she can rest and care for father. I'll be okay."
Later,Marmee found Jo packing her bag. Clothes and books were everywhere on the floor.
"Why are you doing this,dear?" Marmee asked gently.
Jo turned,her eyes wet with tears she didn't let fall. "Aunt March will take me to Europe if I stay with her. The trip is free,and she'll give you money for father. I can't let you face this alone."
Marmee touched Jo's face. "But your writing ... your dreams?"
"Dreams can wait. Family can't."
