What do you usually do? Please tell me so I can write about you! Your English teacher has asked you to write a story. Your story must begin with this sentence: Finally, school finished and Charlie quickly ran to ... en-us 2021-09-20 01:45:07 UTC 2021-09-27 03:32:15 UTC hello@padlet.com Nu'man - Question 2 https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1752917532          Finally, school finished and Charlie quickly ran to his mother's car waiting for him outside the school gates. As he was going in the car, his mother asked him how was his first day in his new school and he gave a thumbs up to his mother indicating it was good as he didn't have the ability to speak for he is mute. The two had quite a number of chats while going back home when suddenly a car on the other side of the road ran the red light and hit their car with such a force that Charlie woke up from his deep sleep in the middle of the night after an exhausting day at school. 

         "Phew, what a relief." he said to himself as he awoken as he wasn't actually mute. 

         "What time is it now, Jacob?" he asked his brother who he had thought was sleeping next to him on the bed before he realized he slept on the couch in the living room.

         After staring into the ceiling for exactly 3 minutes and 24 seconds, he let out a sigh deeper than the Mariana Trench and walked off to his room to actually go to bed. 

         As he was walking down the hallway, his stomach rumbled loudly. "Hey, why don't you get me some lunch!?" his stomach said. 

         "Sir, it's way pass midnight I don't think you're going to have lunch until tomorrow." said Charlie in a very annoyed tone. 

         "How do you like that? Still not getting something to eat?" said his stomach while giving Charlie immense pain telling him to go get some food. 

         Charlie sighed and went to the kitchen to grab a carton of milk and some cereal. "You never grow up do you, Tum Tum?"

         "Stop calling me that! I'm not a child anymore!" uttered 'Tum Tum'. 
         
         Charlie finally poured the milk into his bowl and then put the cereal inside. While eating his cereal he turned to the alarm clock on the table seeing it was already 3 in the morning. Tick... Tock... Tick... Tock... Then it started ringing three different times the first two rings were longer than the third. The sound became noisier and noisier as it repeated that same tune until Charlie spiralled into insanity and threw a fork at a ludicrous speed it didn't just break but it cut in half! In three, even! 

         "Why did that clock sound so loud? Usually I don't even hear it while eating?" he asked himself while he gobbled up his cereal like a starving dog.

         Finally, he can go sleep with his stomach being quiet for once. This time while he was going down the hallway, something felt off. Even after having a big bowl of cereal it was almost as if, he didn't have any sustenance at all. Still very hungry but no stomach to interrupt the silence with loud rumbles. He tried to figure out why he didn't feel any full but then it came back. The sound of the clock ticking could be heard again. This time, the sound came from the upstairs floor. But the odd thing is, he lived in a flat 1-storey house. He started pulling his hair out trying to get over the sound of the clock when he heard a loud thud and the ticking stopped. The painting on the wall fell... up..? He somehow subconsciously walked up the wall and is standing upside down on the ceiling. But, how? 

         Charlie fell down to the ground then the television turned on beside him showing a news programme. But he was just in the hallway merely a few seconds ago, how could he be back in the living room. On the coffee table in front of the couch sat a plate of cold lasagna with a note saying,

"I left this here for you since you missed lunch. Hope it doesn't get cold when you have it. -Love, Mom."

         Did he just wake up from another dream? A dream in a dream, how incredible! The clock now says it's 9 pm and rang once loudly with a slight delay between each ring. He once again broke the clock but this time with the television remote. The glass of the clock shattered into pieces and stayed shut while the television switched to a history channel talking about 'Morse Code'. He picked up the remote and turned it off and went to his room.

         The hallway felt longer than usual. Charlie may not have realized it but he has been walking for 4 whole minutes and hasn't reached his room yet. He turned behind and saw he was still at the living room. 

         "This is ridiculous! It has to be another dream!" shouted Charlie while hitting his head multiple times to wake up. 

         He gave up trying to wake up and saw a familiar playground in the distance with a swing and a see-saw just like the one he used to go and play around all the time at his old neighbourhood. There was a familiar figure on one of the swings and you could hear the creaking of the rusty old chains on the swing. He slowly walked towards the playground and he could hear a tune playing slowly getting louder and louder. The tune playing was the one he used to listen to every time when he made his way downtown as a preschooler with his parents by his side. All that was just a burning memory to him now. 

         He finally reached the playground still struggling to put his finger on who the girl on the swing was but didn't hesitate to ask her. The girl carried on swinging not saying a word. He asked her again but got the same response. He tried again and again but every time she seemed to ignore it. He put his hand on her shoulder and she turned towards him and the two stared into each others' eyes. 

         "We don't have many days..." she voiced out in a very frail voice. 

         Charlie was slightly bewildered while staring in her childishly fresh eyes. Tick... Tock... Tick... Tock... It's the sound of the clock. Ring! it went with one long line with a delay after each time but this time it stopped after a few times and didn't get louder. The girl pointed at a piece of paper on the ground with a note attached with the letters, "M O R S E". He quickly remembered about the television earlier. It switched to a channel talking about 'Morse Code' and the clocks... The clocks all had a funny ring with long and short rings and delays every time it rang or every few times it rang. Could this mean the clocks were telling him something? He picked out his phone and tried translating the rings into Morse and got the letters, "G E T". Get... Get... Get... They were telling him to 'get' something. But get what? 

         He asked the girl what this meant but she just smiled and uttered the words, "My heart will stop in joy." 

         She giggled before fading into pieces of burnt paper drifting into the late afternoon sky. "Wait! Don't go!" Charlie yelled. 

         But the girl had disappeared entirely. The sky grew darker and soon the whole playground turned to a dark black void of nothingness. After all, all things beautiful and transient will one day dissipate. Will Charlie ever 'get' the answer to what the clocks are trying to say? Will he ever meet with the girl again? Who is sending these messages through Morse and is this all just a dream?

The driver was holding a black umbrella above his head as it was raining heavily. His uniform was a white shirt buttoned neatly from top to bottom with a pair of black slacks. On top of it, was a blazer and finished off with a matching tie. Charlie passed his bag over to the driver's hand not acknowledging the looks from the other students. He followed the driver to the car and went straight in before swiftly closing the seizing any chances for the driver to close it for him.

    He hated the stares; those judgemental looks from the people around him set his heart ablaze. Nonetheless, no one dared to challenge the affluent young man as his father owns a big part of the area. Many of the students live there and if they were to be caught meddling with the young master, the consequences would be fatal. He was just about to fall asleep when suddenly his phone rang. Charlie let out a long sigh and picked it up when he saw his father's name. His father, Mr. Montgomery informed his son that they had encountered a mishap while he was working. Charlie nodded and agreed to carry out the task his father had assigned him to do.

    Charlie was already familiar with the task in question. In fact, the car itself was also prepped with suitable equipments. His index finger wandered over the cup holder between the seats and he applied pressure to a certain spot. The pressed button triggered movement within the cup holder as it flipped over and opened, revealing a set of guns. All of them were his preferred choices ranging from glocks to revolvers. The task is simple, very simple. The problem at the moment was a regular - residents refusing to settle their debts. The Montgomeries are very straightforward people, they pity no one but may consider following the circumstances. But this, this has gone too far.

    Recently, Mr. Montgomery had found out that the resident in debt owns a company of his own. All the rags he wore were just an act to receive sympathy from them and all of that ends today. If he is in denial to pay, then he is next in line to meet the devil. The driver called out politely to the young master who was changing in the backseat to inform him that they will be arriving at the conman's residence very soon. Charlie let out a low and short hum indicating that he understood the driver while smoothing out the wrinkles on his freshly changed clothes. Half an hour passed and the car finally slowed down before going into a complete stop.

    Charlie stepped out of the car and dusted off his clothes. The guns from before were placed securely inside the holsters attached to the belt on his waist. They weren't clearly necessary, but it was a habit of his to torment with the residents feelings. After all, he was about to deal with a conman who was caught red-handed in the act. Charlie walked towards the blue door of the residence and stopped right in front of it. He scanned the door from top to bottom and realised that it was freshly painted. Seeing the circumstances, Charlie couldn't help but chuckle lightly at the thought of how doomed this resident was. 'Mr. Conman has no where to go...' He thought to himself. How could he come up with more lies when he had evidently spent a lot of money for the paint?

    Just as Charlie was about to knock, the door knob twisted rapidly and the door flung open. A man in a white shirt revealed himself with fear on his face. Before the young master could say anything a suitcase came into contact with his hands. The conman himself has surrendered. He feared that his company would be taken away as collateral by the Montgomeries and he decided to wave the white flag first. Charlie was stunned but soon bursted into laughter. He was satisfied with the man's repent but also a tad disappointed that he didn't get to dirty his hands a little.

This is why no one dares to neither touch nor speak to the Montgomeries. They aren't just normal influencers with wages stacked high. They are the rulers of the area and what people may call, mafias... ]]> 2021-09-20 18:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1754980662 Azrae -Q2 m7915941 https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1760343357     Finally, school finished and Charlie quickly ran to the teacher's office to retrieve his confiscated unicycle to cycle back home. Now I know what your thinking, why would he cycle a unicycle to school not to mention that it was located on top of a mountain. Well that's why we're here, this is the story of Charlie's bizarre hobby.
    When he was 3 years old he climbed his first hill with his tricycle which was 40 meters tall from sea level. this is can only be achieved because of his exceptional stamina. Not to mention that he even beat a professional 6 years old cyclist in a 500m sprint race. Impressed? No? Well of course not, that's because we haven't reached the best part yet just you wait things will get even better from here...eventually. 
    Before we get to the exciting part, let me tell you everything I know relating to bicycles just to make this story longer. First things first, there are three types of cyclists in the cycling world. Those three are climbers, sprinters and all-rounders. Those who are slow on flat lands but have the ability to accelerate at an incredible rate on steep surfaces are known as climbers. Other than that, these kind of people are usually light weighted which is beneficial when it comes to climbing this is because there's less gravitational force pulling you.
     On the other hand, sprinters are the exact opposite of climbers they are faster on flat surfaces but they'll have a hard time when it comes to climbing. This is because sprinters rely on their strengths to pedal as fast as lightning some of them are bulky as a gorilla which is a liability when it comes to climbing. However, this enemy can also be your greatest ally when it comes to downhill.
     Lastly, the all-rounders. These cyclists have mastered the  art of cycling not just sprinting and climbing but they even mastered braking, turning and even the most treacherous of them all the downhill sprint. However don't overestimate them just because they've mastered everything doesn't mean they're the fastest some all-rounders earn this title because they're not suited to be a sprinter nor a climber because of they're balanced cadence on every type of terrain. usually climbers and sprinters are faster than all-rounders since they have their own specialty.
     I think I'm forgetting something...Oh yeah, the story! Where were we? Wait...oh, now I remember. Because of his past achievement Charlie proclaims that he is the greatest cyclist that has ever lived. When he was in primary school he has won every single competition that he competed and crushed every single opponent that faced him claiming the title "The Undefeated Rookie ". His pride has turn him into a different person giving birth to a monster that should've never existed. He stopped competing in races that was thought to be useless or rather "easy" in his term. One day, he's friend Willy tried to convince him to participate in the National Road Racing Competition "Charles we need you to be our 'Ace' in the up coming race, we need the undefeated..."  "Don't, don't you dare call me that! I'm sick of that name! I'm sick of this sport but I can't let it go! Cycling is... it's my life, Cycling's everything to me without it... I'm nothing. I mean seriously I literally spent my whole life cycling, those were the good old days I would do anything to feel it again, the thrill of competing, the joy of winning, the bitterness of losing and the need of practice." Said Charlie "But Charles don't you see. This might be it. What you need is someone that can rival your strength. I mean this is the Nationals for crying out loud. There might be someone or maybe...just maybe the whole competition is in a whole different league not that I hoped for it though." Said Willy "Fine one race." Sighed Charlie.
      Unfortunately, they won with such ease, his team got a new shiny trophy and the title of 'Champion' but he only felt hatred, despair and anger even though he won the race he even decided to quit cycling. 
       Then, one day Charlie decided to visit a circus in town hoping to find a something entertaining. He sat on the audience seat all alone emitting a dark and gloomy aura so everyone stayed away from him. Then, when the show started he finally felt it joy. what made him feel that way you asked. Weirdly it was a clown that saved him from the depth of despair. The clown was riding a pink unicycle performing a stunt unlike anything he ever seen. At first Charlie thought "What a fool he is. He actually want to be laughed at." Then, he said "What even is that thing? It looks like a quarter of a bike. So this is the so called unicycle Is he going to ride that thing? Well I'd like to see him try." Then, the unexpected happen, he taught the clown would make a fool of himself but instead he showed the audience a stunt that was thought to be impossible and the whole crowed was amazed in fact they were speechless. "What an amazing balance he has full control of that thing." Charlie  was amazed. Then he decided to try out riding a unicycle. He then modify his bicycle into a unicycle and he practiced with it endlessly.
         There you go that's the story of how an unbeatable champion became a unicyclist.

As usual, his mother asked him how his day went. He replied saying it was exhausting while rubbing the sweat off his forehead. His mother looked at him and noticed his sports uniform and knew why he was tired and just smiled.
    Since his dad past away due to cancer,Charlie's strength and motivation was his mother. He would always appreciate every single thing his mother does for him. He loved his mother more than anything in the world.This was always in Charlie's daily routine,going to school and coming back home with his mother. Well,sometimes his mother arrives late as she works in the police force and has a lot of errands to run. Charlie's mother, Joanne drove the car in a moderate speed on their way to a pit-stop before reaching home. Joanne got down the car and went in the doors of the grocery store leaving Charlie in the car outside it.
    Charlie slowly closed his eyes almost falling asleep until his mother opened the car door aggressively which woke him up. Joanne was muttering something then, Charlie questioned her,asking her why she was upset. "It so happens they were out of    almond milk! i was craving for that!" shrieked Joanne. Charlie just sat there puzzled. Although Joanne didn't get what she wanted, she decided to just go home. About 5 minutes later, a traffic light came and they had to stop. In a blink of an eye, a loud noise hit their car and sounds of glass breaking filled the air and blood splashed. Charlie sat there shook, his eyes widened and his brain stopped. He couldn't seem to grasp what was happening. A few seconds later, he came to his senses.
    He had realised his mother was shot. what he didn't realise was that a man that had a grudge on his mother for putting him in prison made his escape after shooting her in her car on the street. Charlie shuddered but he managed to find his phone buried in his pocket then he then hit the numbers on the keypad calling an ambulance. He took his mother in his arms, he was lucky she was still breathing. it seems she was shot on the shoulder and he knows he can get his mother back. The ambulance's siren came close and people got down from it yielding a stretcher. They took Joanne in the ambulance Charlie ran after them holding his mother's hands.
    Charlie prayed so hard, harder than he ever did in his entire life. The ambulance had arrived to the hospital and they rushed Joanne into the emergency ward. He waited outside with flows of tears on his face. He cried and cried without stopping with excruciating pain inside himself. After forty-five minutes, the doctor stepped out of the operation room covered with a surgeons outfit. He walked straight to Charlie, placed his hands on his shoulders and said " your mother is alright she is a very strong woman".This, this was the only thing Charlie needed to hear after all that which had happened...]]> 2021-09-23 05:49:08 UTC https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1762080535 Iskandar - Question 2 https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1763285919         Finally, school finished and Charlie quickly ran to his home. He passes by a couple, sitting on their front porch as always.

"Hey Charlie, come sit with us and have some tea." the woman; Miss Sara offers.

"No I'm fine Miss Sara, I'm in a bit of rush." Charlie quickly declines the offer.

"Oh come on, it shouldn't take long." she insists.

Charlie sighs before making his way to them. The man; Mister Rogers hands him a cup of tea.

"Have you gotten yourself a friend yet, kid?" Mister Rogers asks him.

Charlie looks down on his cup of tea, trying to ignore the question. Mister Rogers places his hand on Charlie's shoulder, as if to comfort him.

"You can't stay like this forever. You need to start opening up to people again."

Charlie slowly nods, agreeing to what Mister Rogers is saying. It's been 5 years since his parents died in an accident, leaving him all alone with no one to take care of him. He was bullied for it, to the point he stopped going to school for a while. He's finally able to muster the courage to go to school again yet he's unable to make any friends, worried they might bully him too.

"It's okay, you don't need to rush. I understand it's hard for you." Miss Sara says with a smile.

"I should get going, thanks for the drink." Charlie says before leaving the couple and going back home.

Once home, Charlie immediately heads towards the bedroom. He tosses his bag onto the floor before lying down on the bed.]]> 2021-09-23 15:02:05 UTC https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1763285919 Aslan Aidan - Question 2 m7836959 https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1763398234         Finally, school finished and Charlie quickly ran to his house located beside his school. He manages to made it in time before the rain could get him. Lucky him making it in time. Now he is home, its the same drill as ever before. He makes some instant noodles to satisfy his stomach's needs, open his laptop and listen to some songs while he does homeworks and occasionally do some drawing waiting for his mum to come home at around 5 p.m. 

        It is now the next day, the last school day of the week. Charlie walks joyfully home knowing it is the best day of the week like every students. He is home at about 1 p.m. This time he made some fried rice with an egg on top and decided to watch videos while waiting for his mother to arrive home around 3 hours later. Right after her mother arrived they had dinner together and went to bed.

         It is now the weekend, as usual Charlie tidy up his room a bit. Vacuum here, vacuum there, after that have a little wipe on the window and, oh it is now 1:30 p.m. Charlie's eyes are heavy, knees weak and it is 5:45 p.m. already. He slept through the noon totally!

How are you? I'm sorry to write to you a bit late. I just received your letter not long ago. About my after-school routine, sure I can tell you about it as long as you don't judge me about it. 

To start with, I walk to the bus station to go home from school everyday after my classes finished at 2:00 p.m. Then, I'll shower and make my to-do list for that day around 2:30 p.m. After that, I'll have my lunch while watching tv at 3:00 p.m. When I'm done, I usually spend my time with reading some interesting e-books in my phone at 3:30 p.m. Sometimes, I usually took a quick nap when I'm tired.Around 5:30, I''ll go for a jog around my neighbourhood to keep fit and healthy.

At 6:30 p.m. I took a shower and get dressed. At 7:00 p.m. my family and I will have dinner together. Then, I washed the dishes and went to my room after I'm done with it to get my homework done. At 11:00 p.m. I'll check my homework and do some revisions about the day after subjects and go to bed. I hope this helps! Don't forget to tell me what happens with your project later. Bye!

Your friend, 
Aireen

He plans to meet up with his 3 best friends at the arcade to celebrate his 17th birthday. As he slowly walks towards the school gates, a woman in a black suit was standing with her hands in her pockets when suddenly, she took out a shotgun and started shooting. 

Charlie trips and fell face first to the ground. On impulse, he turns around to see none other than the dead body of one of his best friend. Shocked and perplexed by what he had just seen, Charlie got back up from the ground and ran through the gate and headed straight to the arcade. After making sure that he wasn't being followed, he let out a sigh of relief and headed in. What he saw next was something no one would ever want to witness. 

Both of his best friends were brutally murdered. One of his best friends was hanging on the basketball ring with a dagger going trough his head and was missing an arm while his other friend was dismembered on an air hockey table. His reflexes kicked in and he tried running away but before he could, a knife sliced right through his back. He falls and gasp for air before being killed and amputated by a man holding a cleaver. 

The man's phone rings and he picks up. "Did you do what I asked you to do?" the caller asks. "Charlie is dead" he said as he walked away leaving the remaining corpses inside the arcade.

How are you doing ? I’m doing great here. Thanks for your letter. Yes, I can help you with your project ! It sounds very interesting. 

First of all, commonly my class finish at 2 o’clock everyday and I’ll walk to my house with my friends. After that, I’d take a shower to freshen up before eating my lunch. Then, I would do my school assingments which is given by my  teacher first before I do anything else so I won’t be anxious about them. After a few hours, I would use my phone but if I’m too tired, I would go take nap for a while so my mind would be in peace. In the evening, I’d usually play or exercise with my friends at the beautiful park to strengthen our bond. After having so much fun, I’ll help my mom to serve our dinner so we can eat together with my family members. 

At night, we often spend our leisure time together since it is family time. We would watch some movies together while joking around with a packet of seasoning chips in our hands. After a long tiring day, I go to my bed to drift off to my dreamland so I can get up early for the next day. I think thats all my do after-school. I hope these routine of mine can help you with your project. All the best ! Bye !

Your lovely friend,

How are you doing? I'm doing fine here. Sorry for receiving your letter a bit late. I was too busy handling my school schedule. Thanks for the letter. Yes, I can help you. It sounds interesting!

First of all, my classes usually finish at 2:00 p.m every single day. I would wait for my parents to pick me up from school at around 2:30 p.m. After I arrived, I will take a shower to clean myself. Then, I go to the kitchen and prepare my lunch. Usually, at 4:00 p.m., I would take a rest first then do my school homework, but sometimes I would do the opposite way. 

At 6:00 p.m., I have free time to play with my friends. We play video games together for about an hour. Then at 8:00 p.m, I would help my mother to prepare dinner, In about 45 minutes we ate dinner together. Then, we will have family time. We usually watch fun movies together while eating snacks.

At 10:30 p.m., I will iron my uniform for the next day and stack books in my school bag. At around 11:00 p.m., I will go take a rest and sleep, but sometimes I will have the motivation to study at night. That's all for me. Hopefully, this is helpful for your project. Have a nice day!

Your Friend, 
Nia

The town’s best-loved comic shop, only five minutes away from Fulham Secondary School. Throughout his life, studying was never his forte, comics have been his entertainment ever since a child. His eyes would sparkle with merriment, his voice perking up with excitement as he flips through them. That very day was particularly hot and humid, he stopped by a mart and bought an ice cream to have before reading. 

The smell of books made him feel exhilarated, he had this great big grin on his face. “Welcome young man, looks like today’s a good day for you!” Charlie laughed, “It sure is Tommy”. Even the shop owner sensed his contentment as he skipped past the counter and went to his favourite corner. The interior was a riot of colour, probably caused by the multi-coloured couches for customers to lounge on. Charlie continued finishing his ice cream quickly. Ah, I should eat this quickly! I’m too excited, he said to himself. He slowly aroused and just stood there open-mouthed, stunned at the wide range of selection. Although he’s been there plenty of times, it has never failed to astonish him as new books come in every week. 

Despite the variations, a book stood out the most. It is a comic shop, but why is there a picture book? “That one kiddo, is a special one..”. He eventually chose that one for his read of the day, Jumanji was the title. He snuggled in one of the seats, knees close to his chest, now this is perfect he thought to himself. As he began to read, the pictures particularly piqued his interest. It lit up a spark in him since all that he read before was just black and white. 

After a moment, he finished them accompanied by a long sigh. He became flummoxed and was left speechless, Jumanji wasn’t at all how he expected it to be, he thought it was going to be one of those typical adventure comics he has read before. But this one was unlike the others, he really had a wonderful time reading it. It was as if he was in the book itself. 

Jumanji is about two siblings, Jude and Peter who discovered a jungle-themed board game while exploring an old mansion. Little did they know that it was magical. The board game unleashes a world of adventure on them, when they started playing they freed Alan who’s been stuck in the game’s inner world for decades. If they win Jumanji, the kids can free Alan for good. Even if that means braving giant bugs, ill-mannered monkeys and even stampeding rhinos …

“Woah, I haven’t had a good read in a long time! It’s a shame that I won’t be able to read it again for the first time.. It’s time for me to go home now.” he said to Tommy. “See you tomorrow perhaps?” he replied. Charlie then walked out and went home, smirking whilst recalling the story that he still can't get over with. He tried to speed up his walk, unable to contain his enthusiasm to tell his mum about every little thing he did today. 

He rang the bell and was welcomed by his lovely mum. “Mum! You need to hear everything!” he told her eagerly. This boy, she whispered. “Yes, calm down  young man.” she chuckled lightly.  They sat comfortably on a couch in the living room, “Now Charlie, what is it that made you this jolly?”. He started by telling his mum how he was praised by his teacher for completing his homework on time, then how he ran out of school to the comic shop. As his excitement grew, he spoke faster. Eventually, he told his mum about Jumanji while squeezing his hands out of joy. “Ah, Jumanji! I used to love it as a child too, now that is why you were so excited huh?” They ended up laughing together and talked more about the captivating story.

After a while, his mum asked him to step upstairs to take a shower and do his chores. If there is one thing about Charlie that you should know, it is that he has never been sent down for any riotous behaviour. He immediately went upstairs and did what his mum told him to do. I'm totally worn out he said after showering. He threw himself onto the bed and scrolled down his phone. He accidentally slept and didn’t hear his mum calling out for him, all his mum could do was just sigh.

The steps grew closer, he heard mumbles. What is happening?  "Mum, are you there?" he asked, but nothing came out of his mouth. He felt feverish. "Welcome to Jumanji. This is where it begins." What happened remains a mystery.. The story of Charlie will forever be told.

It's 12:30 p.m., and Charlie and her friends have planned a road trip to Legoland in Johore to celebrate the end of the school year and the beginning of the school holiday. She is 17 years old, and her two-year-old pal is the driver. Since it's still morning, they don't really felt hungry because they have had breakfast so they only stopped at a store to get snacks and drinks to eat while driving. 

     They brought a long disc with indie kpop songs to listen to in the car and began jamming to the song together, having a great time. Actually, Emma, one of Charlie's friends is moving away to college next week so they might not be able to meet each other for a long time now. After half of the journey, they were all hungry so they decided to eat lunch at a Thai restaurant because Emma loves Thai food. There are no other customers in the restaurant, implying that they are the only ones there. To Charlie, eating tomyam soup with cooked rice, eggs, and fried spinach as side dishes is so Emma. 

     They were eating peacefully until someone came closer to their table. It was a man and he was pointing a gun at Emma when he suddenly exclaimed, "COME BACK HOME OR ELSE..." They were all terrified, but all they could do was sit and listen to the man's instructions. All of the restaurant employees were tied and was guarded by other 4 mans in the corner of the room. Emma stands up and walks alongside the man, but she abruptly kicks the man's feet and begins cursing and yelling at her friends to leave the restaurant.

    So they were trying to escape from the place, but one of Charlie's friends, Ethan, was caught by one of the men, so they all came to a standstill and turned around. The man was holding Ethan as a hostage and attempting to kill him, so his girlfriend, Eve, yelled for him to be released, but the man stated they should offer Emma to them instead. They have no idea what to do or what is going on, so Emma hesitantly surrenders and walks slowly towards them.

     The man passed Ethan to one of the men beside him and began grasping Emma's hair, causing her to groan in pain. "Thank you for surrendering yourself," the man replied abruptly, "but I didn't mention anything about letting your friend survive..." "JACOB NOOOO!!!" The man named Jacob looked at the other man who was holding Ethan and he knew immediately what to do and began pointing the gun at Ethan's head. Eve flinched, while Charlie's friends Emily, Ennik, and Eric gasped in surprise at the man's actions.]]> 2021-09-26 17:10:49 UTC https://padlet.com/g10421605/bmajzji738kd7r3s/wish/1768955851
