Pee Wee Pool Party (2013)
“It didn’t seem honest to keep things from them. She didn’t like to keep secrets from her own family. Besides, she felt as if she would explode if she didn’t confess to someone besides Mary Beth.
Her parents listened while Molly told them about how she had sunk at first, and how the balloons had held her up.
“But when they popped, it didn’t matter. I swam by myself without sinking!” she said.
“Well, I think you learned something, Molly,” her father said. “It would have been much easier if you ha...d come and told us the problem and learned to swim the right way.”
“You worked so hard to pretend,” said her mother. “And in the end you swam alone anyway! You could have done it without all that fuss.”
What her parents said made sense. But Molly never seemed to do things the easy way. She was stuck with a wild imagination. She was stuck doing things the hard way. But she had to admit, maybe she had just imagined that she couldn’t swim!
Anyway, it felt good to confess.MoreLess
