finish one summer before we get on to the next。〃
〃Okay。〃 He looked at Hallorann。 〃Dick?〃
〃Hmm?〃
〃You won't die for a long time; will you?〃
〃I'm sure not studyin on it。 Are you?〃
〃No; sir。 I — 〃
〃You got a bite; sonny。〃 He pointed。 The red and white bobber had ducked
under。 It came up again glistening; and then went under again。
〃Hey!〃 Danny gulped。
Wendy had e down and now joined them; standing in back of Danny。 〃What is
it?〃 she asked。 〃Pickerel?〃
〃No; ma'am;〃 Hallorann said; 〃I believe that's a pink whale。〃
The tip of the fishing rod bent。 Danny pulled it back and a long fish;
rainbow…colored; flashed up in a sunny; winking parabola; and disappeared again。
Danny reeled frantically; gulping。
〃Help me; Dick! I got him! I got him! Help me!〃
Hallorann laughed。 〃You're doin fine all by yourself; little man。 I don't know
if it's a pink whale or a trout; but it'll do。 It'll do just fine。〃
He put an arm around Danny's shoulders and the boy reeled the fish in; little
by little。 Wendy sat down on Danny's other side and the three of them sat on the
end of the dock in the afternoon sun。
