• Winter Break

    There was a once a young teenager girl who is 16 years old named May Ellen. She felt nothing but sadness and alone, she never fit in anywhere and everyone she was around made her feel like an empty seat. This girl all alone and helpless would cry each night with no one there to hold her, comfort her or care. The only people she felt cared was her aunt, uncle and cousin. This made this lonely girl happier than ever. Of course her parents loved her but they weren’t as understanding and hardly there. This made the girl upset and frighten. All the others looked at her like she was not even there. She felt as invisible as the air and the way they treated her were as if she was not human. The poor girl wanted to run away because she wanted a great life but she was too afraid.

    So May Ellen saved up a lot of money to go to Ohio with her mother for Christmas. She wants to have a great Christmas and make her aunt Maddie to talk to her mother about her problem and decides to live with them. May Ellen go up to her mother Linda to ask her if they can go to Ohio for Christmas?

    "I saved up $600 dollar for myself" May Ellen said to her mother

    "Okay why not i need to see Uncle Ali anyway" said Linda, May Ellen's mother

    "Thank you mother." said May Ellen smiling very happy

    May Ellen went on the internet and she got 2 tickets to Ohio. May Ellen's mother Linda; she packs our suitcase for 2 week with the family. In the morning of Christmas Eve; May Ellen and Linda woke up early to get ready to leave. When they got ready, they got their suitcase and went to the car. We put the suitcase in the car and drove to the air report.

    They got their suitcase in the back of the car and went inside the air report. They went in and check in and then they went in the plane and they sit down on the soft chair. They were waiting in the plane for 10 hours and May Ellen's mother Linda was sleeping the whole plane ride and May Ellen was reading a book and listening to music but in her head she wants to sing along with the sing but she can’t. 10 hours later; the plane finally stop and everyone got out. May Ellen woke up her mother so they can get out the plane her favorite aunt, uncle and cousin. They went out of the plane and May Ellen saw her aunt Maddie and her Cousin Ally waiting for them. May Ellen walk over where her aunt and cousin were standing. They met up with my mother Linda too.

    "He is in the front waiting for us" said May Ellen's aunt Maddie

    "Oh okay let's go outside then" said Linda


    They went outside where the car put people up and we saw my Uncle Ali's van. Uncle Ali parks the van and got out of the van and help putting the suitcase in the back of the van.
