Memories Can Last a Lifetime
Trouble makers? No. Naughty? Maybe. Well, why did we end up getting in trouble? Because, we were young, and we couldn't find the cat.
Jenna and I were about seven at the time. My parents and I were visiting my aunt and uncle and their two kids, Tyrell and Jenna. Jenna and I were scared, we couldn't find her cat. So, what did we do? We decided to go on a long journey in Bismarck, North Dakota. No one knew we left, I'm not sure how, but we still got away. We were walking around Bismarck trying to find her cat, yelling her name. Then, we looked around. Where were we? We were lost and we had no idea what to do. So, we did what any other scared child would do, we started walking to where we thought her house was.
We were walking on the sidwewalk when a car pulls up next to us. A man gets out, a police officer. Now we knew we were in trouble. He asks us if we're Jenna and Katlyn, we say yes. He asks us to get into the car. We buckle up and look at each other. He gets in and tells us our parents are worried. They called him, and he's been looking for us for awhile. He pulls up to Jenna's house and we get out. Our parents are standing outside, when they see us they are happy and give us a hug. Then, all of a sudden we're getting yelled at! A second ago my parents were so happy, now they're mad. I wasn't sure why they were so angry, I know now of course.
I like your introduction a lot. I thought it was very personal, which I liked because it helped me imagine what was going on. I also really liked the way you worded it because I could just picture you when you were little wandering off, and Nona getting mad at you. Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteI thought this was super funny! I loved your introduction, it really gave your post something extra. I could imagining all of this happening and it was super fun to read! I thought it was funny that you and Brandee both wrote about childhood memories that involved cops!
ReplyDeleteHaha! That is such an adorable story to begin with! I think you have a very descriptive way of writing. I can visualize everything happening. I also liked the ending, I thought it was a very cute way to end your story. All in all, way to go! Definitely enjoyed your writing!
ReplyDeleteThat's an awesome memory in my opinion, because it is something where you can laugh about now. I really like that you wrote your thoughts like they were at this time and just at the end wrote "A second ago my parents were so happy, now they're mad. I wasn't sure why they were so angry, I know now of course." I really like this part.
