Auggie’s Story
Auggie的故事

Sleep
睡觉

I’d been reading for over an hour and sleep still didn’t come. It was almost two a. m. Everyone else was asleep. I had my flashlight 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.
我已经看出一个多小时了，还是睡不着。已经快凌晨两点了，其他人都睡着了。我在睡袋里开着手电筒。也许是灯让我睡不着，但我太害怕了，不敢把它关掉。发生的事情一直萦绕在我的脑海里。

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 me and Jack. It’s so strange how that can be, how you could have a night that’s the worst in your life, but to everybody else it’s just a usual night.
当我们回到营地时，没有人注意到我们已经走了。老师和其他孩子还在看电影。他们不知道我和杰克是怎么出事的。这太奇怪了，你有一个生命中最糟糕的夜晚，但对其他人来说，这只是一个普通的夜晚。

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. Everyone’s faces were the same. Mine was the same.
阿莫斯、迈尔斯和亨利把我们带回座位。然后他们回到自己的座位上。在某种程度上，一切都和我们离开时一样。天空也是一样的，电影是一样的，每个人的脸都是一样的，我的也是一样。

But something was different. Something had changed.
但情况有所不同。有些事情发生了变化。

Home
家

“So, do you want to hear about the bad part or the good part first?” I asked Mum.
“那么，你想先听听坏的部分还是好的部分？”我问妈妈。

“Whatever you want to talk about,” she answered.
“不管你想谈什么，”她回答。

“Well, except for last night, I had a fantastic time,” I said. “I feel like they ruined the whole trip for me.”
“嗯，我度过了一段美好的时光，除了昨晚，”我说，“我觉得他们毁了我的整个旅程。”

“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?”
“不，亲爱的。别让他们这样对你。你在那里呆了四十八个多小时，那可怕的部分持续了一个小时。别让它们夺走你的，好吗？”

“I know.” I nodded. “But do I always have to worry about bad guys like that? Like when I grow up， is it always going to be like this?”
“我知道。”我点了点头。“但我总是要担心这样的坏人吗？就像我长大后，会一直这样吗？”

“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.”
“世界上总会有坏人，Auggie，”她看着我说，“但我真的相信，这个世界上好人比坏人多，好人互相照顾。就像杰克在你身边一样。还有阿莫斯，以及其他孩子。”

“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.”
“哦，是的，迈尔斯和亨利，”我回答。“他们也很棒。这很奇怪，因为迈尔斯和亨利在这一年里甚至对我都不太好。”

“Sometimes people surprise us,” she said, rubbing the top of my head.
“有时候人们会让我们大吃一惊，”她说，揉了揉我的头顶。
