Chapter 10 happy home

     If you save someone, you will surely win his respect. Peter had proved this for us. Since Peter had saved Tiger Lily from a dreadful fate, and now there was nothing she and her braves would not do for him.   They called Peter the Great White Father, prostrating themselves before him.  

     “The great white father,” he would say to them in a very lordly manner, as they grovelled at his feet, “is glad to see the Piccaninny warriors protecting his wigwam from the pirates.”  

       ”Me Tiger Lily,” that lovely creature would reply. “Peter Pan save me, me his velly nice friend. Me no let pirates hurt him.” Wow, must be nice feeling! However, they were not as respectful to the other boys as to Peter.        While the children were having their evening meal, Peter went out to get the time which meant to find the crocodile and listen to the clock in its stomach. During the make-believe tea, the boys started to complain each other to Wendy. When Peter came back home, they danced.  We have leant Peter’s charm in previous chapters, so Peter was no doubt the best dancer among them, but he pretended to be scandalized. Peter invited Wendy to dance, but Wendy thought a mother of an armful of children should not dance. They both pretended to be old parents, even though they were still little boy and girl.  

     It must be pretty hard to be a mother! Fortunately, I don’t need to be a mother, and I have no chance to be a mother. Maybe I could help someone to be a mother someday and establish a happy home of my own.
