“It was such a pleasure to run into my old acquaintance, but now I must be going,” said Susan
with a livid, sarcastic tone.
“Susan,
will stop being sarcastic?” asked Bill.
“Will
you stop being so rude, Bill?”
“I
wasn’t being rude. I simply asked how you were doing and about the conflagration. I know it devastated your house,
but you can’t spend your whole life lamenting
over your past!”
“Oh!
How mean can a person get in this world?” raged Susan as she stormed off.
Bill
went to his house and Susan went to her Aunt Claudia’s. Susan couldn’t live in
her own house because it had been ruined in a fire.
“You
left the dining room table a mess,” said Aunt Claudia right when Susan walked
in.
“Sorry I will clean it up.”
Susan cleaned up the table then went her room. She
thought of her nice little house. She never figured out why her house burnt
down. Was it a normal fire, or was it someone trying to destroy her house? The
thought of someone destroying her house on purpose sent her chills. She missed
her happy, buoyant self. Ever since she had
moved in with Aunt Claudia, she had become very gloomy.
LOVE!!! :)
