7. The Pink Fluffy Girl

7/The Pink Fluffy Girl After I talked to my grampa, I went to my room. I closed my door real secret. Then I took my wonderful pen out of my pocket. And I did a big sigh. 'Cause I had confusion in me, that's why. "I wish I never even heard that wallet story," I said. "'Cause Finders keepers, losers weepers isn't the rule, apparently. And so now maybe I might be a crook." I looked at my wonderful pen. "Yeah, only I don't even feel like a crook. I feel like a lucky duck. But I still have to take this thing to the Lost and Found, probably. And then it will go to waste just like the

和爷爷谈完话，我就回房间了。 我关上了我的门，真正的秘密。 然后我从口袋里拿出我那支奇妙的钢笔。 我深深地叹了口气。因为我内心很困惑，这就是原因。 “我真希望我从没听过那个钱包的故事，”我说。 “因为捡到的归谁，输了就哭的显然不是规则。 所以现在我可能是个骗子。” 我看着我那支漂亮的钢笔。 “是啊，不过我甚至不觉得自己是个骗子。 我觉得自己像只幸运的鸭子。但我可能还得把这东西拿到失物招领处去。 然后就会浪费掉，就像

teddy backpack." All of a sudden, I heard Mother and Daddy come home from work. I quick hided my pen under my mattress. 'Cause those two would not be understanding of this situation. They came in my room and kissed me hello. I told them what happened to my mittens. Then I begged and begged for them to take me to the store. But Mother said there's no more left. And Daddy said there's no more left, too. And so there was no more left, apparently. That's how come I got depressed all over again. And I couldn't even sleep good that night. I kept on wondering about who was the mitten crook. And what did he look like.

泰迪背包。”突然，我听到爸爸妈妈下班回家的声音。 我赶紧把笔藏在床垫下面。 因为那两个人不会理解现在的情况。 他们走进我的房间，亲吻我，向我问好。 我告诉他们我的手套怎么了。 然后我不停地求他们带我去商店。 但是妈妈说已经没有了。 爸爸说也没有了。 所以很显然，已经没剩下什么了。 这就是为什么我又一次抑郁了。 那天晚上我甚至睡不好觉。 我一直在想谁才是那个彻头彻尾的骗子。 他长什么样?

'Cause I've seen crooks on TV before. And they are biggish and meanish with tattoos on theirselves. Just then, I sat up in my bed. 'Cause a good idea popped into my head, that's why! "Hey, a tattoo is easy to spot, I bet!" I said. "And so maybe I can find that crook on the playground tomorrow!" After that, I went right straight to sleep. 'Cause I would need my strength for crooklooking. The next day at recess, I didn't play horses with Lucille and that Grace. Instead, I runned all around the playground looking for the mitten crook. Only too bad for me. 'Cause most of the children had their jackets on. And so I

因为我以前在电视上见过骗子。 他们身上有纹身，又大又刻薄。 就在那时，我从床上坐了起来。 因为我突然想到一个好主意，这就是原因!“嘿，纹身很容易发现，我敢打赌!”我说。 “也许明天我能在操场上找到那个骗子!”之后，我就直接睡着了。 因为我需要我的力量来做鬼脸。 第二天课间休息时，我没有和露西尔和那个格蕾丝玩马。 相反，我在操场上跑来跑去找那只连指手套。 对我来说太糟糕了。因为大多数孩子都穿着夹克。 所以我

couldn't even see any crooks with tattoos. Pretty soon, the bell rang. That is when my eyes got tears in them. 'Cause I would never see my mittens again. Not ever, ever, never. I started walking to Room Nine. My nose was sniffling and drippity. I wiped it on my attractive jacket sleeve. Then—all of a sudden—a pink fluffy girl skipped past me. She had on a pink fluffy dress. With pink fluffy socks and shoes. And a pink fluffy jacket made of pink fluffy fur. And guess what else? SHE HAD BLACK FURRY MITTENS IN HER PINK FLUFFY POCKETS! My eyes got big and wide! "HEY! MY MITTENS! MY MITTENS!

连个有纹身的骗子都没看到。 很快，下课铃响了。 那时我的眼里含着泪水。 因为我再也见不到我的手套了。 永远不会，永远不会，永远不会。我开始向9号房间走去。 我的鼻子又流鼻涕又湿。 我把它擦在我漂亮的夹克袖子上。 然后，突然间，一个粉红色的毛绒绒的女孩从我身边跳了过去。 她穿着一件粉红色的蓬松连衣裙。 穿着粉红色的绒毛袜子和鞋子。 还有一件粉红色的绒毛夹克，是用粉红色的绒毛做的。 猜猜还有什么?她粉红色的口袋里装着黑色毛茸茸的手套!我的眼睛睁得又大又圆!“嘿!我的手套!我的手套!

MY MITTENS!" I screamed real loud. Then I put my head down. And I zoomed at her like a speeding bull. Mrs. saw me running. She grabbed me by my attractive winter jacket. I jumped up and down and pointed. "THAT PINK FLUFFY GIRL STOLED MY MITTENS! SHE IS THE CROOK! ONLY HER JACKET IS COVERING UP HER TATTOO! AND SO THAT'S WHAT HAD ME STUMPED!" Mrs. called to the pink fluffy girl. She skipped over to where we were. I kept on jumping.

我的手套!”我尖叫得很大声。 然后我低下了头。我像一头飞驰的公牛一样冲向她。 太太看见我在跑。她抓住我那件漂亮的冬季夹克。 我跳上跳下，指指点点。 “那个粉红色的毛绒绒的女孩偷了我的连指手套!”她就是那个骗子!只是她的外套遮住了她的纹身!这就是把我难住的地方!”太太对着粉红色的毛绒绒的小女孩喊道。 她跳到我们所在的地方。 我不停地跳。

"YOU STOLED THEM! YOU STOLED MY MITTENS!" I said. "No, I didn't," she said back. "I didn't steal anything. I found these mittens. They were right in the grass. And so I thought nobody wanted them." "I did!" I yelled. "I wanted them! My grampa Miller bought them for no good reason. And I have been worrying about them all day. And all night. And that is called heartache, madam!" Mrs. said to hush my voice.

“你偷的!”你偷了我的连指手套!”我说。 “不，我没有，”她回答。 “我什么也没偷。我找到了这些连指手套。 他们就在草地上。 所以我想没有人想要它们。” “我做的!”我喊道。“我想要!”我爷爷米勒无缘无故买了它们。 我一整天都在担心他们。 整个晚上。那叫心痛，夫人!”太太叫我小声点。
