Our good days 2

Cathy is tugging my arm and I know whatever I do next will make her mad forever.

Wait a minute, I say, and run inside to get the five dollars I have three dollars saved and I take two of Nenny's. She's not home, but I'm sure she'll be glad when she finds out we own a bike. When I get back, Cathy is gone like I knew she would be , but I don't care. I have two new friends and a bike too.

My name is Lucy, the big one says. This here is Rachel my sister.

I'm her sister, says Rachel. Who are you?

And I wish my name was Cassandra or Alexis or Maritza—anything but Esperanza—but when I tell them my name they don't laugh.

我们的好日子 2

凯茜在拽我的胳膊,我知道,接下来我不管做什么,都会让她永远生我的气的。

等等。我说着跑到屋里拿了5块钱。我自己存有三块,又拿了蕾妮2块。她不在家,可我肯定,她发现我们有辆自行车会很高兴的。我回来的时候,凯茜走了,我知道她会这么做,可我不在乎。我有了两个新朋友和一辆自行车。

我叫露西,大的说。这是我妹妹瑞秋。

我是她妹妹。瑞秋说。你是谁?

我希望我的名字是卡桑德拉,或者阿勒克西斯,或者玛芮查——只要不是埃斯佩朗莎,什么名字都可以。可我告诉她们我的名字的时候,她们没有笑。
