Las aventuras de Tom Sawyer
Capítulo 2, Página 5
The
brush
kept
moving.
“Like
it?
Well,
I
don’t
see
why
I
shouldn’t
like
it.
Does
a
boy
get
a
chance
to
paint
a
fence
every
day?”
That
made
Ben
see
things
differently.
He
stopped
eating
his
apple.
Tom
moved
his
brush
back
and
forth
carefully,
stepped
back
to
look
at
the
effect,
added
a
touch
here
and
there,
and
checked
the
result
again.
Ben
watched
every
move,
becoming
more
interested
and
absorbed.
Soon
he
said:
“Say,
Tom,
let
me
paint
a
little.”
Tom
thought
about
it,
was
about
to
agree,
but
changed
his
mind:
“No—no—I
don’t
think
it
would
be
a
good
idea,
Ben.
You
see,
Aunt
Polly
is
very
particular
about
this
fence—right
here
on
the
street,
you
know.
But
if
it
was
the
back
fence,
I
wouldn’t
mind,
and
she
wouldn’t
either.
Yes,
she’s
very
particular
about
this
fence;
it
has
to
be
done
very
carefully.
I
reckon
there
aren’t
many
boys
who
can
do
it
the
way
it
needs
to
be
done.”
“No—is
that
true?
Oh
come
on—let
me
try.
Just
a
little—I’d
let
you
if
you
were
me,
Tom.”
“Ben,
I’d
like
to,
really;
but
Aunt
Polly—well,
Jim
wanted
to
do
it,
but
she
wouldn’t
let
him;
Sid
wanted
to
do
it,
and
she
wouldn’t
let
Sid.
Now
don’t
you
see
how
I’m
stuck?
If
you
were
to
try
this
fence
and
something
happened
to
it—”
