Mid year papers are so long over and i so totally flung it.
But to me i think that i did personally well.
Although I did not get the grades and marks i wanted.
Think the paper they gave upper sec one man.
4th May i was doing my english paper 1...
So here it goes... Enjoy!
Oh... Those days, memories now so often they would flash pass me like the passing of an on
coming bullet train. Sometimes I try to forget them but they are just permanently tattooed into the living brain cells in my head. So now I pray, "Oh God, why did this happen to me?".
I was only two back then. And i didn't know anything and everything. Pushing me, mother slowed to a halt by the restaurant while I was seated innocently in my four wheeled transport. Seated comfortably in my stroller I pretended I was sleeping - It was a trick that never failed. Then mum stopped patting my and continued her conversation with dad. But curious was I to see where I was, so I popped out my head and looked at my surroundings. Staring right ahead of me, another four wheeled transport was there. There inside the other comfy stroller was... That was the first time I met him.
Years later, when I could remember stuff, I found myself playing with him. I did not know how I knew his name nor how our parents met, but all I know was that his name was Joel. Joel was my first friend and probably my best. We played together, ate together and went to Kindergarden together. In school we copied answers together, not each others answers but the guy who was seated in between us.
Then after pre-school, we went on to first grade then second. We joined the same sport together and were the best in our team. There was one time... "Ouch!". I fell down to the ground. My leg was bleeding and I did not know what happened. Then, the next thing I knew was that Joel was sent to see the principal.
Joel avanged me! "Huh?" I was astonished to hear that! I thought he was the one who hit my leg with the hockey stick. But instead he got detention for helping a friend. "Oh darn"...
"Joel you silly guy," I said. "Anyway thank you for helping me!" I said and then gave a smile. Joel was my good friend and will always be whether in my dictionary or in my heart.
But it was until when....
"Why did you lie to her>" I shouted in a loud and revengeful voice. "I thought we were best friends?" Joel replied. "Do best friends steal each others girlfriend?" I shouted again as a tear trickled down my cheeks. "this is not second grade ok..." "Errr!!! Get lost! You can have her for all I care." I exclaimed for the final time.
"Why must he be so mean?" I thought to myself. Then I walked home shoulders sagged and with a depressed look as if the whole world ended. Entering my house, mum looked at me and asked "Whats the matter son?" I did not want to talk about it so I ran to my room and locked the door.
Soon tears streamed down my face as i realised what happened. Lying on my bed, I sobbed and then memmories of the past soon flashed pass me as if i were a dying man.
All the fun we had together, all the sacrifices and all the pain. Nothing so painful and depressing as this. "Oh... I just wonder if I could sit in my stroller and make it start all over again." I thought to myself.
"Maybe all these things happen for a reason. God, please forgive him. Amen."
