因为妈妈再婚，“我”需要适应新的家庭环境，“我”很讨厌和继兄弟相处。一年一度的社区家庭表演日那天，当站在舞台上时，“我”发现自己裙子上的蝴蝶结没有系好，突然，蝴蝶结松了……
I was in my room， slowly getting ready to head to the community theater with the rest of my family. I wasnt in the mood for being onstage.
“Kate， come here，” my mom called from down the hall.
I found my mom outside the bathroom， holding a wet book. Henry， my new stepbrother， was nearby， working on a complicated string knot （结）， as usual.
My mother gave the book a shake. “Henrys book is in the bathtub. Did you put it there？”
“Not on purpose，” I said. “It was already on the edge， and it happened to fall in when I stepped out of the tub.”
My mother glared at me， something she never did before I had a stepfamily. “You could have picked it up，” she said. “That would have been the kind thing to do.”
As Henry walked ahead of us to the car， my mom took me aside. “This is our corner of the world now， Kate，” she said. “Lets try to make it a good one.”
The community theater was busy when we got there. Theater used to be what my mom and I did together—one play a year for our special thing. With Henry involved， it didnt seem so special anymore.
Henrys dad， who had arrived earlier to help set up， was already in costume. “Dear children，” he called in a theatrical voice. “Come to Father.” I thought he was a nice guy even before he and my mother started dating. Unfortunately， I now had a stepbrother to deal with.
Soon， it was curtain time. I peeked（偷看） out at the audience and noticed that the darkened theater was full. My heart beat faster. I forgot my annoyance at Henry as the lead actress sang， “The hills are alive with the sound of music！ ” Nothing compared to show nights.
Before long， it was my turn. I went onstage， song book in hand. As we kids lined up before Henrys dad， who was playing the part of our father， I realized how poorly Id tied the string on my skirt which was over leggings（打底褲）. I should have asked my mom for help.
