Sam's New House

Sam had always been there, running through the meadow beside Lily, chasing butterflies and dreaming of adventures.

The news came one bright morning when Lily noticed Sam looking at a shiny blue box.
一天清晨，莉莉注意到萨姆盯着一个闪亮的蓝盒子。
She opened it and gasped: it was a postcard of a small house with a red door and a big oak tree.

Sam said, Sam was moving, and his voice sounded like a secret wind blowing through the leaves.
萨姆说，萨姆要搬了，他的声音像风在叶子间轻掠。
Lily felt her heart thump, but she decided to watch the new beginning with a hopeful smile.

The Good Day
好的一天
They spent the whole day unpacking boxes, sorting toys, and painting paint cans.

Sam's friends from the town came over, each carrying a new toy or a fresh pair of shoes.

Lily painted a picture of their big field, while Sam doodled a map of the park.

When the sun set, they all sat together, sharing stories, and laughing at clumsy drawings.

On the last afternoon before the move, Lily and Sam went for a final walk through the familiar woods.
搬家前的最后一个下午，莉莉和萨姆沿着熟悉的林地散步。
They followed the old river that had always hummed a gentle tune as it flowed past.

They stopped at the stone bridge where they had carved their initials.

Sam whispered, He came this way before, and Lily nodded, holding his hand.

They promised to visit each other in the days to come, their hearts heavy but hopeful.

The Treehouse Visit
树屋探访
A week later, Lily brought a small suitcase filled with snacks to Sam's new place.
一周后，莉莉带着装满小吃的手提箱去萨姆的新家。
Sam led her up the ladder to his bright blue treehouse, a spot where they could see the whole yard.
萨姆把她拉上梯子，带她去他明亮的蓝树屋，那里可以看到整个院子。
They explored the corners, and Lily found a hidden nook with a paper airplane that never left.

They drew a giant sun on a piece of paper, the circle split into halves, one for each of them.

They signed their names, and the paper floated gently in the breeze, carried across the skies.

They felt a friendship that could cross distance like the wind that carries the scent of flowers.

A Letter in the Wind
风中的信件
On Lily's birthday, a small envelope drifted along the windy path to her.
