   There was one girl named Emily. She was 12 years old and lived in Toronto, Canada. Every day, she went to school and had fun. Her favorite thing to do was to explore. She wanted to go on a big adventure.  One day, when Emily came back from the school, her mom shouted, “Clean up your room!” Emily replied “O.K, O.K, O.K” She went to her room, and saw that it was so messy. “Why do I need to clean this room?” Emily was asking to herself while she was cleaning. She moved the desk away to clean the floor. Then, she saw a door. Emily tried to open the door. She wanted to do an adventure. At the same time, she remembers that her mother saying to clean her room. But, she couldn’t hold her patience and she opened the door. Emily was thinking if she really wanted to go or not. “Try your best and do what you want!” Emily heard a voice in her mind and remembered what the teacher said to her. So while Emily was cleaning the floor, she finds another door. “What’s this?” she asked to her self again. Suddenly, Emily’s mom came into the room. Her mom shouted “Did you clean up your room?” “Yes! Can’t you see it?” Emily shouted back. Then mother replied, “I can see it! Don’t say like that to your mother Emily. Get back to cleaning.” Then mother shut the door, SLAM. Emily went back into the door. There was a ladder, so she went down, and came to a room. “Wow” Emily almost screamed. There were so many doors all around the room. “What is this door? Can I go in?” Emily had so many questions. She picked a door that was closest to her. In the top of the door, it was written “The Future World”. Emily’s hand was shivering and shivered as she reached the door knob. She holds the door knob and twisted it. Opening slowly, Emily went in the door.

Suddenly, the room got lighter. Boom! “It’s bright” Emily complained. “Wow” Emily’s emotions changed. In front of her eyes, there was a room that Emily was dreaming to live. She was in the future. One girl entered the room. The girl was surprised. She said to Emily nicely, “Hello, My name is Emma.” Emily was speechless. Emma was wearing a futuristic blue suit. It was like a diving suit. Emily started to talk, “Hi, my name is Emily. Where is here?” Emma answered, “You are in the future. You came here by closing the door. Correct?” “Yes. But how did you know?” Emily was so confused  “Oh, Sorry I forgot to explain about it. It will be a long story, but my grand father made this door for fun. He loves to make things.” “Wow! Your grand father made this door?” asked Emily. “Yes, he did. Do you want to see more doors in that room?” Emma asked Emily. “ Yes! Yes! I want to see more.” Emily was so excited. Emma opens the door and went inside into the darkness. BOOM! It was that room that Emily had came before, where there were so many doors. Emma stood in front of the door it was written “The Animal World” Emily chassed Emma and stood in front of a door. “Are we going here?” asked Emily. “Yes,” answered Emma as usual. They opened the door and went in. When walking straight into the darkness, they arrived to a jungle.

There were so many animals there all looking at the girls! They look like human, but they are animals. Suddenly, the animals started running towards them. “Help me!” screamed Emily. Emma took out a badge from her pocket. “Use this!” Emma shouted. Emily puts on the badge. Suddenly, the animal stopped chasing them. Emily knows what they were trying to say and they knew what Emily was saying. “How do they know what I’m speaking?” Emily asked to Emma. “You put a badge. This badge translates automatically to two languages.” Emma explained. Emma started to speak to the animals.  “Hi, my name is Emma. Nice to meet you.” Emma spoke as normal. One of the animal answered “Hi, welcome to our world. You know what we are talking?” “Yes” replied Emma. Emily couldn’t believe she was having this conversation. The animal went and Emily and Emma went to see what the animal world looked like. They swigged with ropes, raced, swimed in the lake, and had fun. Then Emma said, “We went out of the jungle.” Emily stopped running. Emily couldn’t say anything. It was amazing. The town was full with solar panels. They weren’t using trees at all. They went down to the town. There were many animals that lived there. Everyone was doing normal things like humans. While they were seeing the town, the animal president was having a conference. Emily went to a shopping and Emma was finding a place to sleep at night. At the night, Emma brings out from her pocket a squashed house. Then she started to brow it with a machine. “Finished” Emma says. “Is this a house?” Emily asked. “Yes. A camping house. There are two rooms, so I will sleep in the right side and you sleep the left side. There was a bed, toilet, table, foods, clothes, and bathroom. It was enough for camping. “Good night” they both said at the same time.

 

   At the morning, they ate an omelet. This omelet was a little different with 2013 where Emily lives, but the taste was same. Suddenly Emily wanted to go back to her own house. Still Emily didn’t say to Emma because she wanted to know more things on animal world.  They went outside the house. “ Help! Help!” Suddenly when they went outside, they were get caught. They were horse and wolf. Emily and Emma got scared. Emily tried to get something from the pocket, but she couldn’t. The rope was in the way. The house and wolf put them down. They were in a room. Emma tried to take out the rope but they couldn’t. Someone came into the room. “Hallo, you guys. Welcome to Animals World” the lion said. “ I’m the president of this world.” “President? Why are you trying to do to us?” asked Emily. “Yes I’m the president. If you want to know the second question, see this.” The president pushes a remount button. A big television came down. The television was big as the room wall. “Look at this. We had made a weapon’s.” The president shouted. “ Why?” Emma asked. “ We, the animals are going to have get the whole earth. We are going to have the earth for the animals!” the President. “Why you are doing this?” Emily complained. “You guys, the human were cutting down the trees, burning the forest, making gas and many thing. Now, we don’t have space to live. We need to have the whole world and make the world a better place.” The president says to Emily and Emma. Emma and Emily couldn’t say any thing. The president continued, " In six hour we are going to attack the earth. In 2013 the earth will be ours." Emma notices that this earth, where they were trying to attack was were Emily lives now. "It's your world" Emma whispered to Emily. "Yes. I know it." Emily panicked. The president said " Good luck! I am going come back later, before the attack starts. Hahahaha" and leaved the room. Emily tried to take out Emma's rope, but they couldn't. They couldn't walk too. The rope was also tied up on there foot. Emily start speaking to Emma " What will happen to the earth? How about my mom and dad? Can we help them? What they are trying to do?" " Emily wait. Breathe. We don't know what going now. But we must take this rope out and stop them from attacking the earth" Emma explained. Emily asked “But how do we take this rope out?" " I don't know!" Emma answered. Suddenly, both of them stopped speaking.
 Four hours past, with out doing anything. They started to speak again. Emma said "It’s already four hours past. Emma had a clock. Emily continued " Two hours left" "Em" Emily heads a squeak sounds of the door and stopped speaking. It was the president. " Nice to see you again" Emily and Emma stared the president. He didn't noticed. "Two hours left." Emily speaks "Can you stop this? We want to go back home." The president says " No!" Emily and Emma were so confused what to do.

After two hours, the president came to the room again. The president said “Finally! We can have the world. Attack!” The animal’s airplane starts attacking the earth. “No! That is unfair” Emily shouted. But the president didn’t care about it and went out the room. Emily and Emma were thinking what they could do. There was no idea. “There is a piece of glass there.” said Emma. “What? We can use that and cut the rope.”Emily shouted. They reached the piece of glass and cut the ropes. The door was luckily opened. They escaped from the castle and ran to the forest. Emma brought out the airplane from the pocket and browed it. They rode that airplane and went to the space. Still they didn’t know what to do. They went back to the castle and meet the president. They meet the president. The president screamed, “How did you get out from there?” “There are more things that we want to speak to you. Please stop the attacking.”Emily asked. The president answered, “Why do we need to stop? You guys take our place were we lived. Also, the airplanes are already attacking Japan.” “I am very sorry about that. We will try our best to make the earth better and to make your living place better.” said Emily. Emma continued, “I know a planet that it is almost the same with earth. There is enough water and lands. I will show you the planet. Please stop attacking the earth.” The president thinks for five minutes. He said to the animals who are attacking the earth “Stop! And come back.” Emily and Emma feel happy at the same time.

 Emily and Emma showed them the planet and helped them make there own city. Emily said to the animals “We will make the earth better. Come back and let’s live together.”

 Emily and Emma went back to their own house and fixed the world. After that, they plant the tree seeds. Also, they were very careful about other eco friendly things, too. They tried to make the earth better, so the animals can live again, as they promised to the animals.

The Mystery Red Buttton

There was a lazy boy called Homes. He was 7 years old. He was a very usual boy. He wakes up, go to school, eat lunch, go home, watch TV, eat dinner, go to sleep. This is his one-day.

But this day weird thing happened to him. He woke up usually and lied in front of the TV. Because the sunlight was so bright, he couldn’t see clearly. After he rubbed his eyes, he reached his hands to the TV remote controller. When he tried to press the ON button he saw a red button. He knew all the buttons, because TV was his life!! But he never saw that button before. The button engaged his attention. He couldn’t stop himself from pressing the button. “Whoosh” as soon as he pressed the button he was sucked into the TV. He was spinning and spinning, he didn’t know where he was.

            When he woke up, he was in a small room. Then an old man came in and said “ Hi my name is Edward, welcome to the TV world” Homes said “ Hi my name is Homes and where am I and why am I here!?” Homes couldn’t understand, what was going on. Then James introduced another boy, “Come on in Edward.” Then an ugly faced boy came in. His cloths were black and he looked very mysterious. Edward said “James I think you already know, but you guys are going to have a mission, and you have to fix the problem in the TV town.” Homes asked, “What kind of mission is that?” Edward said, “The mission is to go to the primitive age and kill the giant. The people in the town needs help immediately.”  Homes asked, “ So how are we going to the primitive age?” James answered “I’ll give you guys these guns and if you shoot this to someone or yourself, they can go back or go to the past, I’ll tell you guys more about it after you guys got there, got it?” Homes and James answered “OK.”

They took the guns on the table. Homes couldn’t wait to handle the gun. When he lifted the gun, it was quite heavy. He knew he could use the gun well, because he always plays video games and he is very good at aiming. They placed the gun to themselves and they pulled the trigger. The sight started moving. It looked like they were watching a movie fast forward. Then the sight stopped. They where at primitive age! Homes couldn’t believe what just happened. He never felt like this before. When Homes was just feeling surprised, they felt a big earthquake. They looked around, and then there was a huge giant. The giant was a kid and he was crying.  Homes and James tried to stop the giant, “What do you want, why are you destroying the town, please STOP.” The giant kid stopped for a moment, but he started crying again. When the giant kid cries the whole town gets sinker by the water. Then James pulled out his gun and shot it to the giant kid. Home couldn’t understand why he shot the gun to the giant. Then James said, “Are you idiot, didn’t you see him crying? He was lost in the primitive age and he couldn’t find his mother or his dad so I sent him to a another age.” Homes was surprised that James was so smart. Then they came back to the original time.

That day, they overslept at Edwards house. At Edwards house, Homes and James played until midnight. They became really good friends. Next day, Homes planned to go watch a basketball game. Homes knew that James loved basketball, so he took the ticket for him. But off course he couldn’t take the ticket, so Homes came up with an idea, and he decided to go back to the past and go watch the match. They took the gun and shot it to them. Next moment they were at the basket court stadium. When they looked at the court there eyes almost popped out. There was Mikael Jordan. They cheered for the team Bulls. At the middle of the match, James went to the toilet. After he came back from the toilet, he looked scary. Homes didn’t know why he was angry. Then James’ eyes became red, and then the basketball flew to him. The ball almost hit him. Homes were very scared but he knew one thing, James was controlling the ball.

He quickly took out his gun and went back to the original time. At the room there was a memo. It was written, “Sorry about the basketball, but don’t be angry at him, be angry at me. By Edward.” Homes squished the memo in his hand. He threw the memo in to the garbage can. Homes knew where Edward was. When he went to Edward’s house, there was a room that Edward couldn’t show. He ran as fast as he can, that was the first time that Homes ran so fast. Homes finally reached to Edward’s house. He took out his gun and placed in front of him. He softly opened the door and went in. Homes hid behind the sofa. As he checked that there was nobody, he quietly walked to the secret room’s door. When he was ready, he kicked open the door and said “Hands up!” In the room, there was James standing, and behind him there was Edward. Edward shouted, “ Kill him.” Then James’ eyes became red again. The things around Homes all flew to him, and he almost got hit. Homes were trying to only kill Edward, but he didn’t know how. When Homes thought that James was only aiming him, he found out a great idea. He ran towards Edward. James was still throwing things to Homes. Homes reached hands to Edward and hold him tightly. Then James controlled a big sofa and threw it to Homes, but the sofa hit to Edward because Homes was hiding behind him. Edward got under the sofa. Homes looked back, there was James smiling with his eyes usual. Homes said, “Now, lets go watch basketball again.” They hugged each other for a long time.

After few minuets they reached the basketball stadium. They were so happy that they could watch the match again together. Edward was cheering so hard, but the next moment, “ Boom.” The basketball flew to Homes’ face. Next moment, every thing became dark and he didn’t know what happened. Homes woke up, the sunlight was so bright that he couldn’t see well. After he rubbed his eyes he felt something different. He was lying down in front of the TV. He looked at the clock, and it said 8:01am. He thought was that a dream? For few minuets, he stayed like that, but he got bored so he took the TV remote controller. Before he pressed the ON button, what he saw was the red button!

A Strange Turn on a Fortune’s Wheel

            Alex: Hello everyone! My name is Alex. I am the coolest, smartest, and the most handsome man in the world! What? You don’t believe me? Oh come on!

And, on sunny day, I met a creepy guy. I never knew that he will be my first and last love in my life. Anyway, let me start my love story.

Alex: The first time I met her was when I moved to a new house. She was my neighborhood. She was hiding from me behind a tree, and I found it adorable. She somehow looked younger than her age. Suddenly, she looked at me. Oh how beautiful she was! I had a heart attack!!! Her brown eyes, yellow hair, and her look was the best. I fell in love with her in a second. I thought it was a miracle! She looked like a goddess! She was perfect for me.

Angelina: The first time I met him, was when he was helping his family move things in his new house. Then, I found him looking at me. I thought he was a little creepy, because normal people won’t stare at other people while opening their mouth murmuring something. I was just freaked out. Also, he somehow looked older than his age. Maybe it was the clothes… I think he was wearing his dad’s clothes… It looked so weird on him. I just thought that I should not go near him, because he is a stranger. HE WAS CREEPY.

            Alex: The next day, my family and I finished moving all the things in our home. Then, my mom said that I need to go to school next week. She said to find a school you want to go to. After she finished, I ran to Angelina’s house. When I knocked, she came out. “Ummmmm….. W-w-what sc-sc-sc-school do you g-g-g-go t-t-t-to?” I was so nervous! “I go to Canadian School!

I was like what the heck is he doing here?! And then he said “Ummm….. W-w-what sc-sc-sc-school do you g-g-g-go t-t-t-to?” does he have a speaking problem? But I need to answer the question. “I go to Canadian High School! What’s your name?” “M-m-m-my n-n-n-name is… ummm… Alex!” oh, he has a normal name…“Oh really? My name is Angelina and nice to meet you.”… NOT nice to meet you, actually. Who would want to be friend with a creeper? And then he ran back to his home… I hope he is not coming to my school…

            Alex: That’s it! I AM GOING TO CANADIAN HIGH SCHOOL! I’m going to be in the same class as her! And when I talked to my parents, they said okay. I was SO happy. I was waiting for the next week to quickly come.

            Angelina: When I walked into my class, the teacher announced that we are going to have a new student. Oh please god, please not HIM! ... But it was him. I was so depressed when I saw him.

            Alex: YEAH!!!! I AM IN THE SAME CLASS AS HER!!! YEAH!!! AWESOME!!! COOL!!! FANTASTIC!!! THIS IS MY BEST YEAR EVER!!!

            Angelina; After this, it was supposed to be music, but the teacher said you can rest, because Alex came. Everyone was happy, because our music teacher was scary. In lunch time, other girls were talking about Alex. How tall he was, how handsome he was, how cool he looks. I DON’T ARGEE WITH THE GIRLS. It was nonsense. And that was the time I caught him staring at me. His face reddens and he turns back. Huh, that’s weird? Then, other girls started talking about Alex and me.

            Alex: OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!! THEY CAUGHT ME!!!!!!! NOW THEY WILL KNOW THAT I LIKE ANGELINA!!!!!! Act normal, act normal. Nobody saw me, it’s all right.

Alex: For the next few days, I started to be nice to her. I don’t know why, but I just wanted to. I answered every single question for her, I defended her from other boys, and I smiled at her a lot. She seemed to like it. So, I tried to be nice to her. I hope she liked it.

            Angelina: Okay????? I don’t know why Alex is being nice to me????? I asked my friends, and they all said Alex likes me. Now I started believing it. When I came back to my home, I just sat on my bed and thought about nothing. But, Alex kept coming out in my mind. What happened to me? I don’t like Alex. I don’t like him. I don’t like… don’t like… like… like… I like Alex… Oh my god what am I talking about! Forget about Alex, forget, forget… can’t forget about him… I don’t know why… is this love?

He is smart, handsome, cool, and he is always nice to you!” said the other girls. Ummm… what should I say now? I don’t want to lie, and I don’t want to tell the truth! So, I just sprinted to my house, ran up the stairs, and locked my door quick. My heart was beating fast. It was beating like crazy! However, it was beating fast not because I ran fast, but my heart was beating fast for another reason. It was because of Alex.

            Alex: Today is the day! I’m going to say it! Alone! With Angelina! In a park! I am going to do it! But first, I need to ask Angelina if she is okay meeting me. “Hey Angelina! Can you hang out with me today? After school? In a park? Six o’clock?” “Sure! I’d love to!”…SHE SAID YES!!! OH YES!!! Now, this is a surprise everybody, so don’t tell Angelina about this. I also have a surprise present for her!

            Angelina: Oh yes!!! He asked me to hang out! Boys usually don’t say the word ‘date’ because it sounds too girlish to boys. They use hang out more often. Anyway I am so pleased! I cannot express this feeling very well. It is like… ummm… being in a heaven! I believe that is the best word for my feeling right now. I can’t wait to see what he is going to say to me!

            Alex: ………THIS IS SO AWKWARD. Angelina is standing right next to me saying nothing. Do I need to speak first? No, I am too shy to say it right now! What should I do? What should I do? WHAT SHOULD I DO!!!

Angelina: ………THIS IS SO AWKWARD. Alex is standing right next to me saying nothing. Should I say something? Okay, I will talk to Alex in three, two, one---!!! No I can’t. I am just so nervous!

Alex: Okay. I’m going to say it to her… Here we go! “Hey Angelina, It seems right now that all I’ve ever done in my life was making my way here to you. I love you. You’re my only reason to stay alive. Angelina, will you be my girlfriend?” “Yes I would!!! Oh Alex, I am so glad!”… YES!!!! SHE SAID YES!!! WHOOOHOOO! TODAY IS THE BEST DAY EVER!!! YEAH!

Angelina: OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD!!! Alex said he loves me! I am so happy right now, I can’t…  I can’t just… EXPLAIN my feeings! I am so thrilled today!!! Oh wait… he is taking out something… a rose! Awwwwww! So romantic! I am so happy! “Here you go, Angelina, my beautiful girlfriend!”… He said ‘beautiful’!!! Oh my god! Well, it is true. I am beautiful, pretty, smart, and all the boys like me!

            Alex: FINALLY, I said ‘I love you’ to Angelina. Whew! I am so reliefed, because I thought she won’t like me! Good thing that I searched in Google about love quote! I am really bad at literature, so I messed up twenty-five times about what to say to her. Then, I used my brain! I searched in Google, ‘best love quotes’. And these came out. So, I used them.

Angelina: The next day in cafeteria, I saw Alex walking toward me. I was like ‘What? Why is he coming toward me? Is he going to say something to me?’ Actually, he said to me, “Hey Angelina, can I sit next to you?” Of coures it is okay! Here! And then he sat next to me and we talked happily until my friends were staring at us. They KNEW we had some kind of relationship going on. “Ooooooooooooooo! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! You guys are dating! Everyone, listen! We have something important to say! They became a… Lovely couple! Congratulations for them!”… REALLY, do you REALLY need to say that to everyone?! Then, Alex said, “Oh come on! We became a couple yesterday! How can you girls know?  Oh whatever. Let’s get out of here Angelina!” suddenly, he holds my hand and ran out of the cafeteria. I was little bit surprised of his sudden action.

            Alex: While I was holding Angelina’s hand, I felt strong and confident. I don’t know why, but she made me feel strong and confident. I took her outside of the school. Then, she said, “Why did you come out of the school?” So, I answered, “I came out of the school, because I wanted to do this.” I gently hold her neck with my hands and kissed her. I closed my eyes, so I could not see what face Angelina was making. I kissed her about ten seconds and when I opened my eyes; she was shocked on what I did to her. “Ab-bab-ab-ba-ba-abab-ba?!” …I had no idea what she was trying to say. But, I felt like I could understand it. So, I said, “We are a couple in a high school. We are not in elementary. I just love you so much.” “It… it is okay…” mumbled Angelina with her face like a tomato, “Next time, don’t kiss me until I do. Okay?” Then I answered. “Okay Princess Angelina. I, Prince Alex, will protect you from any danger. Believe me!” the next thing I remember is laughing a lot together. We don’t know why we laughed, but we just couldn’t finish. Then, we heard the bell ring. So, we walked back to the school holding our hand.

 

 

Four years later…

 

            Alex: “… So this power point shows where the nuclear power plant exploded. As you can see, it has a high level of nuclear around here. Make sure you don’t go near here, because some people stood close to the nuclear power plant and died in eight minutes. Thank you.” Whew! I could finish my presentation easily! Good thing that I practiced! Oh and by the way, it’s been one year, two months, and three days since Angelina and I went to a different university. We were too busy to contact each other. Also, I heard from my friends that she has another boyfriend in her university. I hope that’s not true, but my friend at her university saw Angelina hugging another boy. I was disappointed about that. I think she doesn’t love me anymore… But I still love her!!!

            Angelina: “… To conclude, earth will be changing more and more in the future. Thank you.” Whew! I finished my presentation! I was so nervous about it! “Hey Angelina! You did well on your presentation!” “Awwwwww! So sweet, Jack!”… By the way, I got a new boy friend! He is called Jack. Huh? What about Alex? Well he doesn’t call me very often, we are in a different university, and there is a rumor that he has a girl friend in his university! So mean right? Such a cheater! So, I met a new boyfriend, and he is much nicer than Alex. I think I will say to Alex to break up with me. He’s such a cheater!

            Alex: You told me you loved me… It was just a lie like everything else… I tried to forget you, but the harder I tried, the more I thought about you… This is the problem with getting attached to someone… When they leave, you just feel lost… Oh Angelina, I thought you will never betray me… How could you do that? I feel lost now… What can I do? Oh Angelina, do you remember that you said, "When love is lost, do not bow your head in sadness; instead keep your head up high and gaze into heaven for that is where your broken heart has been sent to heal."… Now I know what it means… I will trust you for the last time and just stare up in the sky, trying to forget you. It will be difficult but I will do it… I love you Angelina…

            Angelina: Now I don’t need to care about Alex any more. He is such a liar! He said he will love me and protect me forever. “Angelina, what did you say to your ex-boyfriend?” said Jack. “I said to him let’s break up. I don’t care about him anymore.” “Great! I don’t want any other boys to be friends with you.”

 

Two months later…

 

            Alex: Hello everyone! Long time no see! Huh? Angelina? I don’t care about her any more. As I told you, I said I will try to forget her! That was quick, I know that. I could forget her with no trouble because… I GOT A NEW GIRLFRIEND! Isn’t that amazing? My new girlfriend is called Veronica. She is more beautiful, nicer, and more perfect than Angelina. Even though I sometimes remember her, I don’t care about it. Well, it was true! Love is the best medicine, and there is more than enough to go around once you open your heart. I am back to the handsome and cool Alex again! Yeah!

            Angelina: Jack said he doesn’t like me anymore… I am so sad now... I think I know how Alex felt when I said let’s break up. Sorry Alex… Please forgive me… Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself continuously walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you, Alex… Do you realize that it is always the same in every relationship? There is always one person crying and wishing to get back together, while the other doesn't even remember the things they've been through. I hate that I have to be the one who remembers every little detail while you can't seem to remember me at all… I am so sorry, Alex…

            Alex: I hate that girl now! Veronica was cheating with another boy called John. She said he is nicer than me. I HATE VERONICA NOW. I am so angry!!! Suddenly, I heard a high pitched screech sound. Then I heard a girl scream right outside of my house. I ran out and saw a car crash with… with… ANGELINA. Why is she in front of my house? I was so shocked and scared. Then, somebody shouted, “Call an ambulance!” I quickly took out my phone and called for an ambulance. “Hello? There was a car crash and a woman got hit by a car. She is bleeding a lot so you need to come quickly. Also, here the driver is hurt. Besides…” and I talked on. Five minutes later, two ambulances came rushing toward my house. They stopped in front of my house and rescued the driver first, because he was stuck in the car and he could not breathe well. Then, the doctors came and helped Angelina on the ambulance. I followed them in the ambulance.

Alex: When we were in front of the hospital, everyone ran to the operation room. I was blocked so I could not go in. I prayed and begged to the god that she will be fine and be normal again. I didn’t want to lose Angelina. When the operation was finished, the doctor said that she would be fine and be normal again. I said to the doctor, “This is my best day ever! Thank you doctor, thank you for saving her!” After that, Angelina was moved to a normal room. She was still unconscious, but she was fine. I held her hand tightly with both of my hand. I looked at her face and thought she was attractive. She was like an angel that never dies in my heart. “I love you more than any word can say ... I love you more than every action I take ... I'll be right here loving you till the end, Angelina. Did you know that when I was talking to Veronica, it didn’t feel good as talking to you. I said I forgot about you but it was a lie… I can’t live without you… I love you Angelina.” After I said that quietly, I kissed her on the cheek and went back to my house.

Angelina: I woke up in a hospital. What happened to me? Oh, right. A car crash… I was going to say ‘I am sorry Alex, and I love you. Can you accept me as your girlfriend?’ but what a funny destiny I have! A drunk driver hit me right in front of Alex’s house and boom! I am in a hospital. I wonder what Alex did when he found me bleeding a lot outside of his house… Wait… What is this? A card? And it is from… ALEX! It said, ‘Hello Angelina, I am Alex. If you want to see me, shout my name three times. If you don’t want to see me, throw the paper in a garbage can. It’s your choice Angelina.’ So, I shouted his name three times. “Alex! Alex! Alex!” Suddenly, Alex appeared. I thought I was still dreaming. But it was real. He held out a ring and said, “Angelina, when I saw you, I knew you were my true love. Late at night when the entire world is sleeping, I stay up and think of you. I wish upon the stars, that somewhere you are, thinking of me too. Angelina, will you marry me?” I answered, “Yes I would!!! Alex, I am so happy!” I cried in joy and ran to Alex. I hugged him and he hugged me back. Now, everyone in the hospital was clapping at us. One of the patients started to say, “Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!” And everyone joined in. At that moment, Alex kissed to me. We kissed for a long time and everyone cheered. We were so happy!

Alex: In our wedding day, our family and friends from the university came to celebrate. We had so much fun. It was the happiest moment in my life until now. I will never forget how our fortunes wheel made a strange twist to bring us together once more. If that didn’t happen, we won’t be standing here. “And now, you may kiss the bride.” I kissed Angelina for a long time and now we were married. She smiled at me, so I smiled at her back. I know that we are going to live happily ever after like a fairy tale. I know it, because she is my true love.

HS' Narrative

Sweets to green

 

                  There was a girl that was 17 called Terry Hart. She was kind, had courtesy, smart and a pretty girl. She loved candies and chocolate. But she did not have the taste that she wanted. So she decided to make a candy that she wanted it to taste like. Every day she ate chocolate and candy every day she became fatter and fatter but she didn’t care. Every day she ditched school and went to the supermarket and buy 100 simple chocolate bars. She combined apple and chocolate, black pepper and chocolate, shrimp with chocolate, spaghetti with chocolate. Everything was good but quite not her taste that she wanted it to be.  

Five years later she made a chocolate bar that was filled with crushed peppermint candy, wasabi paste, worm gummies, glanced mozzarella cheese, bubble gum, peanut butter, strawberry jam and kimchi. She was now a president of the most famous chocolate store or factory in the world named Terry Harts terrific chocolate thanks for my wonderful taste buds.

                              That combination was a big hit. Everyday millions of people around the world came to eat her chocolate. Terry became a billionaire. Terry made other chocolate bars like meatball with chocolate and she called it meatball chocolate bar. That was also a great hit. But she was so fat she weighed 220 kilograms.  No one wanted to marry her. Even though she was very nice. One day when Terry went to her store. She saw a handsome man buying her products. Terry fell in love with that men and she wanted to know more about him. Then Terry found out that he was the owner of the famous salad bar restaurant called green yum yum. She also knew that his name was Collin Monroe. She fell in love with him. But she was extremely fat so she decided to go on a diet.

 

 She worked 3 months of running but that didn’t work because she only ran three minutes every day. She tried no eating for a day but it didn’t work. She tried everything but that all didn’t work. One day when she was eating a green gummy worm she thought he would maybe fall in love with me when I give him a dish of fresh homemade salad. She bought a farm and she began to plant lettuce, tomato, corn and onions. It took 3 hours to plant each of the seeds. She was too sweaty and she was so tired that she couldn’t eat. The next day she watered the plants every day. Terry ate fresh salad and vegetables to give Collin a very enjoyable dish. After one year Terry weigh 45 kilograms. She loosed 175 kilograms in three hundred and thirty five days. (365). that day was when all of her vegetable grew. When

 Terry was walking down the street he saw Collin so she ran to him and said come over to my house this evening. Collin said yes. Terry ran back to her house and cleaned and prepared her salad.

That evening when Collin came to Terry’s house she gave Collin a salad with fresh lettuce, tomato, corn and croutons with Italian dressing on top. When Collin ate his first bite he was amazed because he never ate this kind of fresh salad before he saw cupids throwing heart shaped arrows to him. Collin was very amazed and fell in love with Terry.

 Three years later they got married and had three kids called Brooke, Paige and Josh. They lived happily ever after until they died the end.
