清早，小乌龟告诉小猴：“我们今天搬家，太阳落山前就出发。”

That morning Turtle told Monkey, “We’re moving today. We’ll leave before sunset.”

清早，小乌龟告诉小猴：“我们今天搬家，太阳落山前就出发。”

That morning Turtle told Monkey, “We’re moving today. We’ll leave before sunset.”

小猴有点舍不得：“我给你画张像吧，把咱们的小池塘也画进去！”

Monkey felt sad to say goodbye. “I’ll draw your portrait, with our little pond in it!”

小乌龟笑了：“那我们下午一起画，我还能帮你挑颜色。”

Turtle smiled. “Let’s draw together this afternoon. I can help you choose the colors.”

小猴把纸和画笔摆好，抬头看看太阳：“还早着呢，先玩一会儿。”

Monkey set out paper and pencils, then looked up at the sun. “There’s lots of time. I’ll play a little first.”

一只蓝蝴蝶飞过篱笆，小猴跟着跑到草地上，看它停在花瓣间。

A blue butterfly flew over the fence. Monkey followed it to the meadow and watched it settle on a flower.

草地真好玩。他滚了两圈，又捡了一颗圆圆的小石子。

The meadow was fun. He rolled twice in the grass and found a little round pebble.

吃过午饭，小猴想起画像，刚走到桌边，又听见池塘边的水声。

After lunch Monkey remembered the portrait. He reached the table, then heard splashing by the pond.

他坐在浅浅的岸边，用叶子做小船，一放就是好几只。

He sat safely at the shallow edge and floated leaf boats, one after another.

小乌龟来找他：“现在画吗？”小猴说：“等这只船漂到那边就来。”

“Shall we draw now?” asked Turtle. “As soon as this boat reaches the other side,” said Monkey.

可小船绕着水草打转。等小猴抬起头，小乌龟已经回去帮妈妈了。

But the boat circled around the reeds. When Monkey looked up, Turtle had gone home to help Mother.

树影越来越长。村口传来收拾行李的声音，小猴一下子站起来。

The tree shadows grew longer. Monkey heard bundles being packed near the gate and suddenly stood up.

桌上的画纸还是空白的。小猴握住画笔，心里又急又难过。

The paper on the table was still blank. Monkey held a pencil, feeling hurried and sad.

他跑到小乌龟家：“对不起，我让你等了。我们现在还能一起画吗？”

He ran to Turtle’s house. “I’m sorry I kept you waiting. Can we still draw together?”

小乌龟摇摇头：“我得帮妈妈检查东西了，不过，我还是想收到你的画。”

Turtle shook his head. “I have to help Mother check our things. But I’d still love your drawing.”

小猴回到桌前，没有再想着画满整张纸。他先画朋友弯弯的笑眼。

Monkey returned to the table. He stopped trying to fill the whole page and began with his friend’s smiling eyes.

接着是圆圆的龟壳、小池塘，还有他们常坐的那片绿草地。

Next came the round shell, the pond, and the grassy spot where they often sat together.

画好了。小猴仔细夹好画纸，赶在出发前送到小乌龟手里。

The picture was finished. Monkey protected it between two boards and brought it to Turtle before they left.

“这里少了一根芦苇。”小乌龟笑着指出来。小猴递过绿笔，让他添上。

“It needs one reed here,” Turtle said with a smile. Monkey offered a green pencil so he could add it.

小猴陪他们走到村口。这一次，他认真听朋友说新家的模样。

Monkey walked with the family to the village gate. This time he listened carefully as Turtle described their new home.

夕阳照着画像，小猴轻轻挥手。他记住了：重要的约定，要留出真正相处的时间。

Sunset warmed the picture as Monkey waved goodbye. He would remember to leave real time for the promises and people he cared about.

时间珍贵，尤其是与人相处的时光。给重要的约定留出时间，也能安心享受玩耍。

Make time for the people and promises that matter.
