—Bye. ____. 

— ____I can take you where you want to go. 

My little sister, Meg, said that she wasn't afraid of the dark anymore and she'd be OK staying with Aunt Lily in the country. "As long as you're there, Mike," she had said. Still, Mum was worried. Meg had never slept away from home, away from the city. So I told Mum I could handle everything.

Even though we were only staying overnight, Meg had brought six books-all about fairies. After we unpacked, Aunt Lily invited us to pick some flowers. As we followed her through the forest, Meg held my hand tightly. But once we reached the sunlit grassland, she let go. "Butterflies!" whispered Meg. She screamed with delight when one flew near her.

Maybe I had nothing to worry about, I thought. I still remembered when I was here last summer, I found some amazing insects, like fireflies(萤火虫) and walking sticks which I'd never seen in the city. 

"Fairies are magical. See these beautiful flowers they grow!" she kept telling absolutely everything she knew about fairies. I was glad that if she kept it up until bedtime, then maybe she'd fall right to sleep.

Meg did keep chatting, right through supper. Then the sun began to set. "Does it get really dark out here at night?" she asked. Her eyes were fixed on the window.

"Sure, but we've got plenty of lights inside," said Aunt Lily. She leaned over and gave Meg a warm smile. But I could tell she was still worried. "I could read to you."

I hadn't even finished a page when her bottom lip started shaking slightly. "Mike," she said, her eyes starting to fill. "I want to go home." I quickly searched through her book for something to keep her from crying.

The book fell open to a page that was dog-eared from use, a page that was obviously one of Meg's favorites. The text read: "Among the trees deep in the forest, the lights of fairies gleam (闪烁)." Aha! How could I forget those "tiny fairies" out there?

Para1:"Meg, there's something outside I want to show you," I whispered.

Para2:"Tiny fairies, Mike!" she said, pressing her forehead against the window, "Everywhere!"
