I was in my room, slowly getting ready to head to the theatre with the rest of my family.
I don't want to put on the show in the theatre that day. "Kirstie, come here!" Mum called from down the hall.
"What is it?"I called back and found my mum outside the bathroom, holding a wet book.
Mum gave the book a shake. "Henry's book was in the bathroom. Did you put it there?"
"Not on purpose," I said disinterestedly,"It was already on the corner, and it happened to fall in when I stepped out." Mum looked at
me angrily,"You could have picked it up. That would be the kind thing to do."
Mum never acted like this before. Being kind wasn't actually that hard. But after Henry and his dad moved in, everything felt different. As Henry walked ahead of us to the car, Mum took me aside.
"This is our corner of the world now, Kirstie,"she said. "Let's try to make it a good one. "
I nodded unwillingly.
The theatre was busy as usual. One play a year in the theatre used to be what Mum and I did together most excitedly. But now, with Henry here, it won't be special any more.
Soon, it was my turn. I forgot my anger at Henry when I went on the stage.
As we kids lined up on the stage, I realised how poorly I had tied(系) the drawstring on my skirt —my bow(蝴蝶结) suddenly came untied and my skirt began to drop — in front of hundreds of people!
It was not a dream! It was terribly real! People soon began laughing, and I could feel my face burning.
Then Henry, beside me, came to my aid! He tidied up my clothes, tying the drawstring with a beautiful knot (结). He made a joke about me"not"knowing knots, and most of the people laughed again! This time, the laughter felt OK!
At the end of the show, I found Henry and touched him on the shoulder. "Thanks!"
He smiled, "Knot a problem!"
I smiled guiltily (惭愧地 ). Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have a new person in my corner of the world after all.
