My friend wants your opinion on a short story she’s writing…?
……………………………………………
May
Sometimes I feel alone, even if I am surrounded by people. It feels like no one cares. And it all started when we (my family and I) found out that my 17 year old sister, Kara, was pregnant.
……………………………………………
Kara
Well, I do not admit that the baby was a mistake. You see it was sort of planned. I had actually been wanting a baby for 2 years, but that is just a secret that the family shouldn’t know. And then I was in for a total shock…
……………………………………………
Mark
Okay, after I got Kara pregnant I felt like it was my responsibility to help her, and I actually sat down thinking. Tonight, was the time to make my move. ***
“Okay, Mark what do you want?” Kara asked me.
“Kara, since I got you pregnant I would like to, I mean it would be a good idea if we, uh um,” I stuttered.
“Mark, hurry up, this baby isn’t getting younger.”
“Kara, I think that we should get married.” I saw her eyes swell up with tears and I didn’t know what to think.

Kara
I could not believe my ears. Mark asked me to marry him! He didn’t know my pregnancy was planned! I didn’t know what to do, so I just broke down.
“Are you okay, Kara?” Mark looked like he regretted asking me.
“I am okay. Just wonderful.”
“So is that a yes?”
“Yes Mark I will marry you.” Too bad I didn’t know what trouble that would cause.

I can not believe that Kara and Mark are getting married. Kara told me yesterday after her date with Mark last night and I totally flipped. She made me promise not to tell mom and dad yet, but I don’t think I could keep this in very longer. It is so surprising.
I grinned as I sat down on my computer chair, I grabbed my notebook and a pen and I started working on a list of what to do to Kara’s room after she moved out.
It looked a little like this:
Kara’s room:
Party room? Items needed: Disco Ball, long table, flashy stuff, huge fish tank, Piñata
Sleepover room? Items needed: Microwave, a at least 21” TV, candy stand, (table filled with candy)extra sleeping bags.
Oh man was I excited!

And, you shouldn’t care about our critism. Can you accept it if I told you I was her biggest fan and absolutely loved her writing? Of course you would! Then you should be able to tolerate rude comments, otherwize my friend, you are just another hippocrite like me, and the rest of this world. Sometimes its good, sometimes its bad, but if you can accept one, not the other, then you need to learn how to be less greedy and in the open.
Keep it up 🙂
