	Noelle's mom wipes her eyes as they open the little door of Ah-ma's unit.	ノエルの母親は涙を拭う。阿媽のスペースの小さな扉が開かれる。
	Will {i}I{/i} cry when my mother dies someday?	あたしは、自分の母親が死んだら泣くかしら？
	I'm starting to seriously worry that I won't. What kind of monster does that make me?	泣かない気がして本気で不安になるわ。あたしってどんな薄情者よ。
	What kind of cold, heartless person cares so little about her own parents?	自分の両親の生死に関心がないなんて、冷たすぎるでしょ。
	Is there something wrong with me? Do I just not form emotional bonds as deeply as ordinary people do?	あたしってどこかおかしいの？普通の人と違って、他人と深く心を通わせることができないの？
	When they get back to Ah-gong's apartment, Noelle and her mom begin packing to leave.	阿公のアパートへ戻ると、ノエルは母親と身支度を始めた。
	Are you all flying back tonight?	今夜、みんな帰っちゃうの？
	Actually, my dad will be in Taiwan for another week attending to business matters.	ううん、お父さんが仕事の関係でもう一週間こっちにいるの。
	So my mother and I are flying back alone.	だから帰るのはあたしとお母さんだけよ。
	Aw, one week was too short.	えー、１週間だと短すぎたよ。
	As Noelle fits the last of her clothes into the roller bag, Chun-hua takes a seat, pulling a thick tome out of her backpack.	ノエルが最後の服をキャスターバッグに詰めている横で、春花は腰を下ろし、リュックから厚い本を取り出した。
	Noelle feels a twinge of sadness as she watches her cousin read her huge, academic looking book.	まるで学術書のような本を読むいとこを見て、ノエルはふと寂しさを覚えた。
	If I'd grown up in Taiwan, we probably would've become close.	あたしが台湾で育ってたら、きっと仲良くなってただろうに。
	Suddenly, a strange thought occurs to Noelle.	突然、ノエルの頭に妙な考えが浮かんだ。
	If I'd grown up here, would my personality been shaped into something more similar to Chun-hua's?	あたしがここで育ってたら、チュンファのような性格になってたかしら？
	How much of my personality is just a product of being raised by an immigrant helicopter mother with no friends or family around to balance her out?	移民で周りに友達も家族もいない、過干渉の母親に育てられたことは、あたしの性格にどれほど影響してるの？
	Would my mother and I have gotten along?	台湾で生活してたら、お母さんとも仲良くなれた？
	The magazine Chun-hua showed Noelle earlier is still out on the coffee table, taunting her.	春花が以前見せてくれた雑誌が、今もコーヒーテーブルに広げられている。まるでノエルをからかうかのように。
	I'm finished packing, so I have some time to kill before we leave for the airport.	荷造りは終わったし、空港に行くまで少し時間があるわね。
	Maybe I can translate the poem my mother wrote.	お母さんが書いた詩を翻訳してみようかしら。
	Noelle digs her emergency Chinese-to-English dictionary out of her backpack.	ノエルは念のため持ってきた中英辞書をリュックから取り出した。
	I was being a petulant baby in elementary school.	小学生の時は気が短かったけど……。
	All I have to do is persevere and power through learning the language properly this time.	今度は辛抱強く、真面目に中国語を勉強すればいいだけの話よ。
	I'll simply look up each word I don't know, and burn its pronunciation and meaning into my memory.	知らない単語はちゃんと調べて、発音と意味を記憶に焼き付ければいいのよ。
	Unfortunately, she doesn't know a single word in the poem's first line.	不運にも、詩の１行目にある単語は、どれもノエルの知らないものだった。
	After spending 15 minutes pounding seven words into her memory, her enthusiasm evaporates.	15分かけて７つの単語を記憶に叩き込み、ノエルのやる気は蒸発した。
	This actually is incredibly difficult...	これ、思ったよりも難しいわ……。
	I'm not surprised that I have nothing to show for my six years of Chinese school. It feels like the knowledge is just washing over my brain like water over plastic.	どうりで中国語学校での６年間で何も身につかなかったわけね……覚えたことが水みたいに滑り落ちていくのを感じる。
	Is my brain just not wired for this?	あたしって言語の勉強に向いてないの？
	Could it be genetic? Even after living the majority of their lives in America, my parents haven't mastered English, either.	遺伝的な問題だったりする？親も人生の大半をアメリカで過ごしてるのに、英語が下手なままだし。
	It takes another 15 minutes for her to finally overcome the first line of the poem.	さらに15分かけて、ようやく詩の１行目を読み切った。
