Peter Pan 003 – Chapter III.COME AWAY, COME AWAY! – 009
When people in our set are introduced, it is customary for them to ask each other’s age, and so Wendy, who always liked to do the correct thing, asked Peter how old he was.It was not really a happy question to ask him; it was like an examination paper that asks grammar, when what you want to be asked is Kings of England.“I don’t know,” he replied uneasily, “but I am quite young.” He really knew nothing about it, he had merely suspicions, but he said at a venture, “Wendy, I ran away the day I was born.”Wendy was quite surprised, but interested; and she indicated in the charming drawing-room manner, by a touch on her night-gown, that he could sit nearer her.“It was because I heard father and mother,” he explained in a low voice, “talking about what I was to be when I became a man.” He was extraordinarily agitated now.“I don’t want ever to be a man,” he said with passion.“I want always to be a little boy and to have fun.So I ran away to Kensington Gardens and lived a long long time among the fairies.”She gave him a look of the most intense admiration, and he thought it was because he had run away, but it was really because he knew fairies.Wendy had lived such a home life that to know fairies struck her as quite delightful.She poured out questions about them, to his surprise, for they were rather a nuisance to him, getting in his way and so on, and indeed he sometimes had to give them a hiding.

“모르겠어,” 그는 불안하게 대답했다, “하지만 나는 꽤 어려.” 그의 말에는 정말 아무것도 모르는 것이었고, 단지 의심만 가지고 있었지만, 모험적으로 말했다, “웬디, 나는 태어난 날 도망쳤어.”

그는 지금 몹시 동요했다. “나는 절대로 남자가 되고 싶지 않아,” 그는 열정적으로 말했다. “나는 항상 작은 소년으로서 재미있게 놀고 싶어. 그래서 켄싱턴 가든으로 도망쳐 오래오래 요정들 사이에서 살았지.”

웬디는 그렇게 가정적인 삶을 살아왔기 때문에 요정을 알고 있다는 사실이 매우 기쁘게 다가왔다. 그녀는 그들에 대해 질문을 쏟아냈고, 이는 그에게 놀라운 일이었다, 왜냐하면 그들은 그의 길을 방해하는 등 귀찮은 존재였고, 실제로 가끔 그는 그들을 숨겨야 했기 때문이다.
