10黄昏前的家

一只小鸟歌唱起来。

杰克睁开了双眼。他的手指仍指着那幅有蛙溪树林的画。

他悄悄地从树屋窗户往外看。外面的景色与画中的景色一模一样。

“我们到家了。”安妮低声说。

傍晚的阳光照射着树林。太阳快下山了。

时间仍停留在他们离开的时刻。

“杰——克!安——妮!”远处传来了喊声。

“是妈妈。”安妮说,手指着远处。

杰克看见了远处的妈妈。她站在他们房子的前面,看上去很小很小。

“安——妮!杰——克!”她喊着。

安妮把头伸出窗外,叫嚷着:“来啦!”

杰克仍感到恍恍惚惚,他目不转睛地看着安妮。

“到底发生了什么事?”他说。

“一间神奇的树屋带我们进行了一次旅行。”安妮简单地说。

“但是现在和我们离开时是同一时刻。”杰克说。

安妮耸了耸肩。

“树屋是怎么把我们带到那么远的地方?”杰克说,“那么古老的年代?”

“你刚好在看一本书,说你希望去那儿。”安妮说,“于是神奇的树屋就把我们带到了那儿。”

“但是怎么会这样?”杰克说,“谁建造了这间神奇的树屋?谁把那些书放在了这里?”

“一个有魔法的人,我猜想。”安妮说。

“一个有魔法的人?”

“啊,看。”杰克说,“我几乎把这个给忘了。”他把手伸进他的口袋里,掏出那块金牌。“有人把这奖牌丢失在那儿……在恐龙的地盘上。看,在奖牌上面有一个字母‘M’。”

安妮的双眼睁圆了。“你认为M指的就是有魔法的人?”她说。

“我不知道。”杰克说,“我只知道有人在我们之前去过那个地方。”

“杰——克!安——妮!”远处的喊声又传来了。

安妮把头伸出窗外。“来——啦!”她大叫着。

杰克把那块金牌放回口袋。

他从他的背包里掏出那本恐龙书,把它与其他书放在一起。

接着,他和安妮最后看了一眼树屋。

“再见,树屋。”安妮默默地说。

杰克把背包挂在肩膀上。他指了指绳梯。

安妮开始下绳梯。杰克跟在后面。

不大一会儿,他们跳到地面上,起步走出树林。

“没有人会相信我们的故事。”杰克说。

“所以我们不要告诉任何人。”安妮说。

“老爸不会相信的。”杰克说。

“他会说这是一个梦。”安妮说。

“老妈不会相信的。”杰克说。

“她会说这是编造出来的。”

“我的老师不会相信的。”杰克说。

“她会说你是傻帽。”安妮说。

“我们最好不要告诉任何人。”杰克说。

“我已经那样说过了。”安妮说。

杰克叹了一口气。“我想我自己也开始不相信了。”他说。

他们离开了树林,走上了通向家的街道。

当他们走过街道旁的所有房子时,在恐龙时代旅行的经历越来越像是在梦里了。

只有这个世界和这个时代似乎是真实的。

杰克把手伸进口袋,紧紧握住金牌。

他摸到了镌刻的字母M。这让他的手指微微刺痛。

杰克笑了。他陡然间感到非常幸福。

他解释不了今天所发生的一切。但是他坚信他们在神奇树屋里的旅行曾经确确实实地发生过。

完完全全是真的。

“明天,”杰克轻声地说,“我们再去树林。”

“当然啰。”安妮说。

“而且我们还要爬上树屋。”杰克说。

“当然啰。”安妮说。

“我们要看看接下来会发生什么事。”杰克说。

“当然啰。”安妮说,“我同你比赛!”

他们一起跑了起来,向自己的家奔去。

10 Home Before Dark

A bird began to sing.

Jack opened his eyes. He was still pointing at the picture of the Frog Creek woods.

He peeked out the tree house window. Outside he saw the exact same view.

“We’re home,” whispered Annie.

The woods were lit with a golden late-afternoon light. The sun was about to set.

No time had passed since they’ d left.

“Ja-ack!An-nie!” a voice called from the distance.

“That’s Mom,” said Annie, Pointing.

Jack saw their mother far away. She was standing in front of their house. She looked very tiny.

“An-nie!Ja-ack!” she called.

Annie stuck her head out the window and shouted,“Come-ing!”

Jack still felt dazed. He just stared at Annie.

“What happened to us?” he said.

“We took a trip in a magic tree house,” said Annie simply.

“But it’ s the same time as when we left,”said Jack.

Annie shrugged.

“And how did it take us so far away?” said Jack.“And so long ago?”

“You just looked at a book and said you wished we could go there,”

Said Annie. “And the magic tree house took us there.”

“But how?” said Jack.“And who built this magic tree house?Who put all these books here?”

“A magic person,I guess,” said Annie.

A magic person?

“Oh, look,” said Jack. “I almost forgot about this.”He reached into his pocket and pulled out the gold medallion.“Someone lost this back there... in dinosaur land. Look, there’s a letter M on it.”

Annie’s eyes got round. “You think M stands for magic person?” she said.

“I don’t know,” said Jack. “I just know someone went to that place before us.”

“Ja-ack!An-nie!” came the distant cry again.

Annie poked her head out the window. “Come-ing!” she shouted.

Jack put the gold medallion back in his pocket.

He pulled the dinosaur book out of his pack. And put it back with all the other books.

Then he and Annie took one last look around the tree house.

“Good-bye, house,” whispered Annie.

Jack slung his backpack over his shoulder. He pointed at the ladder.

Annie started down. Jack followed.

Seconds later they hopped onto the ground and started walking out of the woods.

“No one’s going to believe our story,” said Jack.

“So let’s not tell anyone,” said Annie.

“Dad won’t believe it,” said Jack.

“He’ll say it was a dream,” said Annie.

“Mom won’t believe it,” said Jack.

“She’ll say it was pretend,”

“My teacher won’t believe it,” said Jack.

“She’ll say you’re nuts,” said Annie.

“We better not tell anyone,” said Jack.

“I already said that,” said Annie.

Jack sighed. “I think I’m starting to not believe it myself,” he said.

They left the woods and started up the road toward their house.

As they walked past all the houses on their street, the trip to dinosaur time did seem more and more like a dream.

Only this world and this time seemed real.

Jack reached into his pocket. He clasped the gold medallion.

He felt the engraving of the letter M. It made Jack’s fingers tingle.

Jack laughed. Suddenly he felt very happy.

He couldn’t explain what had happened today. But he knew for sure that their trip in the magic tree house had been real.

Absolutely real.

“Tomorrow,”Jack said softly,“We’ ll go back to the woods.”

“Of course,” said Annie.

“And we’ ll climb up to the tree house,” said Jack.

“Of course,” said Annie.

“And we’ ll see what happens next,”said jack.

“Of course,” said Annie. “Race you!”

And they took off together, running for home.
