The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Peters’ backyard. I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was. Only then did I know this party was a sleepover. The word “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult. But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it. I thought of a way to escape. I would explain that I needed my mothers permission to spend the nights. But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen. She granted permission! Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls. I didnt bring my own pajamas (睡衣)，so Mrs. Peters offered me Heathers pajamas. As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake. “Do I need to go again? Ill stay up to go one more time.. .”.Of course , I finally fell asleep. The next morning , I was the first to wake up. I was warm! I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up. I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-wetting didnt happen. I got up, took off Heathers pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls. Mrs. Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas. My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red. “WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so frightening. Should I answer? And that was when it happened — Mr. Peters came in and grabbed his wife , ‘‘Elvis Presley died!” The news of the Kings death overtook Mrs. Peters, and I ,was spared. I got home without the other girls knowing what had happened. 1. The author had to spend the night at Peters because ________. A. she enjoyed her cake there B.
