"Come on, we'll go there and back. Don't be such a crybaby!" Nessi, my older sister screams.
"Fine, but we have to be back in an hour! Okay?" I reply.
"You are plainly no fun." Nessi grumps. I give her a look and she nods "okay."

.   .   .

"We only have thirty minutes left,  are we almost there?" I complain.

"Yep!" Nessi grins as she pushes aside a branch, revealing a mystical beach with a giant, flower covered staircase. 

I have never known to be adventurous, but at that moment I knew I would be more than an hour!

Safari Picture

Landing in Africa after a horrendous flight felt amazing, but I was most excited for my first safari  
                                              •  •  •
The jeep pulls up to a safe place where I can get out. I can't see any animals, but suddenly a ferocious male lion jumps on to a large rock. Marko, my tour guide, tells me to get back into the jeep. Right before we drive away, I snap a picture on my polaroid to remember this moment.

On the way back from the safari the guide told me I was lucky because lions don't normally come that close. I am truly lucky!

A Litter Different

"Pipe down Lynn, your just an organics bin." I steam.
"Don't  be rude, me and plastic are the only thing fantastic!" Lynn brags.
"Everyone knows your bitter, Litter." All the green bins yell at me.
None of them know it's not a cup of tea being me. I may not be a work of art and I might not be very smart. I wish they would give me a chance, they can take me to a dance. We don't need to be best friends, I just want to make amends. If only they forgave me for putting that banana in paper.

Banana For Candy

"Ding dong!" I grab the candy box and go downstairs.
"Trick or treat!" A small little girl dressed up as a lady bug smiles. Grabbing the candy, I put my hand in the box and felt nothing but wrappers. All the candy was gone, someone had eaten it! Although I couldn't go and create an FBI investigation, the little girl was getting impatient.  Feeling bad I say,
" One second...I need another box." I sprint up the stairs to find any candy lying around. I couldn't find any candy... so I gave her a banana. The word got around that I gave a banana. Nobody came back.

Cancer at the Hospital

"Pass me the tweezers," Doctor Kevin called, "There's no time."
"Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep" The monitor went blank.
"We've lost him doctor," a nurse sniffles. The doctors and nurses pack up their tools and wheeled the body out.
"Lola, get the wife and... you know." Dr. Kevin bowed his head. Lola, the nurse, went to break the tragic news.
"Ma'am, we tried to help but the spot just grew and grew, and we were unable to stop the spred."
 "It can't be... my husband," She put her hand over her mouth, "The spot?"
"Yes, it was... the cancer."

"This food looks scrumptious." A tall man said shoveling a spoonful of Firfir into his mouth.

"Yes, Firfir Is my favourite Ethiopian dish." A middle aged man beamed. They go and join another man to devour a plate of ethnic food. The three men chatter about their counties and the delicious variety of food there was.

Not Until Your Ready

"Help, I can't get down!" Sheldon whimpered. Just then a blurry figure zoomed by and hurdled up the playground.
"I'm here to help." Fly Guy exclaimed. He picked up Sheldon and flew off the playground.
"Thanks Fly Guy!" Sheldon said grinning. Fly Guy bent down and said,
"Next time don't go on the big kid slide, at least not until your ready."
"I won't, I'll wait until I'm older." Sheldon nodded. Fly Guy smiled and said good-bye.
"One more thing," Sheldon smirked, "say hi to Super Man if you can."

"Definitely." Fly Guy said soaring off into the blue sky.
