Revenge is a Good Thing: based on the Enemy Pie Prompt
By Alexis Chehovich – NY
It started when the mailman would always throw the mail at my face. He even threw a box that was mailed to him. My mom was not happy to because I went to the Aburn Hospital after that box hiting. It was another day. He did lots of things to all of us in life. Its morning too. People are taking a walk at 5:00am. The sun is still down and it it quiet. Now the fog is clearing the roads. Uh oh, here comes the mailman. I might have to seek revenge. To me I think revenge is a good thing. The mailman also has a dog named Salt. Salt is always locked up in a cage everyday. The mailman’s name is Steve. Plus he has a different person in his car (it is a kid too). Last we say hello to him, but he dose not say hello back to us. MAD MAN! Steve will never let us get the mail when he is there. So he just sits there for an hour or two. So I guess I am seeking revenge! I will take Salt when he is sleeping for an hour or two. Then I will take the kid and bing him to my room. Steve is now realy mad at me. I will now let the kid go and make the kid tell him “To be nice and and stop doing what he always does to us”. “Plus you will get Salt back”. DAve and I are now firends. Steve lets us send the mail out on weekends. Now Steve will never do anything to us. Also we will never do anything to Steve too. That is why I would never do anything to anybody.
