Each day he would scribble drawings of bright clouds but never spoke about them.

He imagined himself stumbling over a note, his cheeks burning with embarrassment.

He wondered if the world really could see his hidden talent, if it mattered if he was still shy.
The First Note

At home, Jasper carried his small recorder to his bedroom and whispered a promise to himself.
回到家，杰珀斯把小口笛搬到卧室，悄悄给自己许下承诺。
He remembered his father's words, “Play what you feel, not what you fear.”
父亲的声音在他心头回响：“播出你感受的旋律，而不是你恐惧的。”
Taking a deep breath, he drew a line and made a sound like a bird on the wind.
他深吸一口气，吹出一道像风中小鸟的清音。
The note floated through the walls, making his heart smile.

第二天，杰珀斯加入了帕特尔老师的音乐班，所有人都能听见。

坐在椅子上，他听到同学们调音的声音，房间里充满笑声。
He felt his pulse throb through the chairs as classmates tuned their instruments, and the room filled with laughter.
帕特尔老师宣布他们要尝试一段初学者的简单旋律。
Mr.
杰珀斯闭上眼睛，记起了第一次的音符，然后让节奏流动。
Patel announced that they would try a simple melody for beginners.
