题目内容:
A tsunami (海啸)was coming when we landed in Tokyo. Not a natural tsunami, but a family one. My husband, my two stepkids and I arrived tired by our lack of sleep on the flight, and my stepdaughter and I were still not speaking after an argument from the day before. To add to our troubles, a public holiday meant there was nowhere open for breakfast. There we were, together 24/7 for the next two weeks.
My stepson, 11 years old and always attached to his iPhone is shy. Meanwhile, my 14﹣year﹣old stepdaughter never says thank you.
Yet, over the course of the holiday, the kids found their rhythm.
On our last night in Tokyo, we found our way to a local restaurant. Sitting at a small corner table, surrounded by locals after a hard day?s work》 we enjoyed some beautiful Japanese food. Finally, after 10 long days of trying to find a rhythm that suited us all, we talked.
For once, bonding replaced eye﹣rolling and, instead of the usual one﹣word reports after a day at school, our conversation was filled with warmth and love as we shared our favorite vacation experiences.
There was the moment when my stepson joined locals as they washed their hands and faces at a well,to cleanse themselves before burning incense (焚香)at a temple.Or the time when my stepdaughter chased deer in a park so she could feed them. And the time when we walked through a maze of market stalls and laneways to find what we thought was a simple noodle restaurant, only to be greeted by a charming garden filled with locals sharing a meal.
As we walked away from our dinner, darkness fell. The stone lanterns gradually came to life,and I whispered,for the first time in a long time,"Thank you, "
