Auggie's story
Sleep
I'd been reading for over an hour and sleep still didn't come. It was almost 2 a. m. Everyone else was asleep. I had my flashlight (手电筒) on under the sleeping bag. Maybe the light was why I couldn't sleep, but I was too afraid to turn it off. What had happened kept coming back to my mind.
When we got back to the camp, no one noticed we'd been gone. The teachers and all the other kids were still watching the movie. They didn't know how something bad had just happened to Jack and me. It was so strange how that could be and how you could have a night that was the worst in your life, but to everybody else it was just a usual night.
Amos, Miles and Henry brought us back to our seats. Then they returned to their own seats. In a way, everything was exactly as we had left it. The sky was the same. The movie was the same. The faces were the same. Mine was the same.
But something was different. Something had changed.
Home
"So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?" I asked Mum.
"Whatever you want to talk about," she answered.
"Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time," I said. "I feel like they ruined (毁坏) the whole trip for me."
"No, sweetie. Don't let them do that to you. You were there for more than forty-eight hours, and that awful part lasted one hour. Don't let them take that away from you, okay?"
"I know," I nodded. "But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? When I grow up, is it always going to be like this?"
"There are always going to be bad guys in the world, Auggie," she said, looking at me. "But I really believe there are more good people on this earth than bad people. And the good people watch out for each other and take care of each other, just like Jack was there for you. And Amos. And those other kids."
"Oh yeah, Miles and Henry," I answered. "They were amazing, too. It's very strange because Miles and Henry haven't even really been very nice to me at all during the year."
"Sometimes people surprise us," she said, rubbing the top of my head.
