Papa’s jaw dropped when Mama told him that Sister had cheated on her final exams—not to succeed but to fail. “It’s unbelievable!” he said. “Sister has always been so proud of her good grades!”
“Yes, she has,” said Mama. “But it’s not unbelievable. It just shows how badly she wanted off the swimming team.”
“Wanted off the swimming team?” said Papa. “She never said anything about that to me.”
“Of course she didn’t,” said Mama. “She was afraid you’d blow your top. You already had her getting a swimming scholarship to college and winning gold medals at 
the Olympics. Can you imagine how much pressure she must have felt? For her, being on the team couldn’t have been much fun.”
“Oh, my gosh!” Papa said, clapping a hand to his forehead. “I’ve been so stupid! I just thought she’d want to be a champion swimmer because she’s so good at it.”
“It’s like anything else, dear,” said Mama. “No matter how good at it you are, if it stops being fun, you won’t want to do it anymore.”
Papa put his head in his hands.
“She must be really mad at me,” he mumbled. “Maybe I should say sorry to her.”
Sister’s footsteps could be heard on the stairs. She came into the kitchen and looked hopefully up at her parents.
“Honey,” said Mama with a smile, “your papa and I have decided that there’s no reason for you to be on the swimming team if you don’t want to.”
Sister’s face lit up like a Christmas tree. “Yippee!” she cried.
“And,” added Papa, “there’s no need for any more drills. I’m sure you’ll bring your grades back up all by yourself.”
Sister ran to Papa and jumped into his arms. She gave him a big hug. “I’m going to go play cards with Lizzy!” she said. “See you later!”
From the kitchen window, Mama and Papa watched their daughter run down the sunny road toward Lizzy’s house.
“It’s good to see her happy again,” said Mama.
“It sure is,” Papa agreed. “As for the swimming team, there’s always next year.”
“If?” Mama prompted him.
“Oh, right,” said Papa. “If she wants to.”
Mama smiled. “At least you’re learning, dear,” she said. She kissed him.
“Well, you know what they say,” Papa said. “Better late than never.”
当妈妈告诉爸爸姐姐在期末考试中作弊时，爸爸大吃一惊——不是为了成功，而是为了失败。“难以置信！”他说。“姐姐一直为自己的好成绩感到骄傲！”
“是的，她有。”妈妈说。“但这并不令人难以置信。这只是表明她多么渴望退出游泳队。”
“想退出游泳队吗？”爸爸说。“她从来没有对我说过这件事。”
“她当然没有，”妈妈说。“她害怕你会大发雷霆。你已经让她获得了大学游泳奖学金，并在奥运会上获得了金牌。你能想象她一定感受到了多大的压力吗？对她来说，加入团队不会有多有趣。”
“哦，我的天！”爸爸说，用一只手拍了拍他的额头。“我太愚蠢了！我只是觉得她会想成为游泳冠军，因为她太擅长了。”
妈妈说：“亲爱的，这跟别的什么都一样。”。“不管你有多擅长，如果它不再有趣，你就不想再做了。”
爸爸双手抱着头。
“她一定真的生我的气，”他喃喃自语。“也许我应该向她道歉。”
楼梯上可以听到姐姐的脚步声。她走进厨房，满怀希望地抬头看着她的父母。
“亲爱的，”妈妈笑着说，“你爸爸和我已经决定，如果你不想加入游泳队，就没有理由加入。”
姐姐的脸亮得像一棵圣诞树。“哎呀！”她喊道。
“而且，”爸爸补充道，“没有必要再训练了。我相信你会一个人把成绩提高的。”
姐姐跑向爸爸，跳到他的怀里。她给了他一个大大的拥抱。“我要和丽萃一起去打牌！”她说。“回头见！”
从厨房的窗户里，妈妈和爸爸看着他们的女儿沿着阳光明媚的路上跑向丽萃的家。
“很高兴看到她又高兴了，”妈妈说。
“确实如此，”爸爸同意了。“至于游泳队，总会有明年。”
“如果？”妈妈提示他。
“哦，对了，”爸爸说。“如果她愿意。”
妈妈笑了。“至少你在学习，亲爱的，”她说。她吻了他。
好吧，你知道他们说什么，”爸爸说。“迟做总比不做好。”
