Watermelon Overload




Today I have a big delivery to do with eighty-five watermelons to a store. I was driving safely when suddenly my radio cracks alive “Justin, Justin, are you there?”

“Yes, what’s wrong?” I reply.

“I got an incoming message that you are heading toward a flood, a big one you need to pull over and we will…”

The radio ended. Great just great, I am stuck in a flood in the middle of nowhere with lots of watermelon and now my GPS is not working. What am I going to do? I try to keep moving but the flood was high and the weight of the watermelons is too much to carry so I empty out some of the watermelons and keep driving. A powerful wind comes over and knocks me away and I pass out. Later, I wake up I am in a hospital with my boss standing over me

“ How are you feeling?” he asks.

“ Good, but what happened?”

“You passed out for awhile, the police found you and got you to the hospital.” He replies but I don’t hear him because I fall asleep.

  1. I like your word choice and how you told a short story in few words. I liked when the sentence ended right in the middle, it was suspenseful.
    Where did this story idea come from? Is there a connection that you have with liking watermelons? PS I like watermelon in the summer only!

Summer Wish

I barely go outside during the summer, it’s a fact. My mom is too busy with work and I’m stuck inside. When I do go outside it’s like the best feeling ever, The hot air is filled with kids sweat and laughter. The cool air blows against my pale face as I look at kids around me. Then I go back inside And watch the window like it’s a television show that I can’t tear my face from the screen. Their tall long tan legs, It looks like the legs have been kissed by the sun gods as a blessing. Then, I look down at my tiny pale legs. I look at my reflection of myself out the window, Filled with disappointment and hate, I turn and stare at my book hard Wishing upon a star that I could go outside To the beach, pool, forest anywhere that has a Sun shining above me. But it's the middle of the day there is only one star out, And it's far from granting my wish. I think again, There's always next summer. (This is not a true story :)

The Gifts From The Trees

In a peaceful forest, there is a long forgotten tribe, the Wukutuka. Every year, the Wukutuka has a feast to celebrate what the gods have given them and how much the trees have granted the tribe. Every year the tradition is for the grateful chief to go into the woods to cut a piece of the oldest tree of the forest and add it to the Ball Of Wisdom. He says a prayer to God to ask for luck and more wisdom for the year. Then he takes his hand and places it on the ball to say thank you.
