You may be sure she begged his pardon ; and then , feeling drowsy , he curled round in the kennel . ` Wo n't you play me to sleep , ' he asked , ` on the nursery piano ? ' and as she was crossing to the day nursery he added thoughtlessly , ` And shut that window . I feel a draught . ' ' O George , never ask me to do that . The window must always be left open for them , always , always . ' Now it was his turn to beg her pardon ; and she went into the day nursery and played , and soon he was asleep ; and while he slept , Wendy and John and Michael flew into the room . Oh no . We have written it so , because that was the charming arrangement planned by them before we left the ship ; but something must have happened since then , for it is not they who have flown in , it is Peter and Tinker Bell . Peter 's first words tell all . ` Quick , Tink , ' he whispered , ` close the window ; bar it . That 's right . Now you and I must get away by the door ; and when Wendy comes she will think her mother has barred her out ; and she will have to go back with me . ' Now I understand what had hitherto puzzled me , why when Peter had exterminated the pirates he did not return to the island and leave Tink to escort the children to the mainland . This trick had been in his head all the time . Instead of feeling that he was behaving badly he danced with glee ; then he peeped into the day-nursery to see who was playing . He whispered to Tink , ` It 's Wendy 's mother . She is a pretty lady , but not so pretty as my mother . Her mouth is full of thimbles , but not so full as my mother 's was . ' Of course he knew nothing whatever about his mother ; but he sometimes bragged about her .
He did not know the tune , which was ` Home , Sweet Home , ' but he knew it was saying , ` Come back , Wendy , Wendy , Wendy ' ; and he cried exultantly , ` You will never see XXXXX again , lady , for the window is barred . '
