A penguin in the desert
Chapter 1
It was Monday morning in Emma's family apartment, Emma was a 13 year old who was born in London but travelled to America for her grandma funeral .It happened like this; last year Emma and her family were all going to be visiting Grandma Beth when they arrived at her house it was a really big and beautiful house so as Beth,we knocked on the door then grandma Beth ushered us in and then she gave me cookies because I was her favourite grand child, well she said it to all of us. Then grandma Beth went into a room and then she locked the door but not with key, I came in to ask her if I could get some of her cookies until I saw Grandma on the ground panthing i came in closer and shaked her but before i knew it she was on the ground and was not even moving I screamed and called my parents they came and also saw her on the floor, my mum Annabelle was calling an ambulance and my dad Jordan was holding her and crying, I was surprised that my dad could cry but that wasn't the matter on hand and then I saw an old medicine packet,I read the back of the packet then I found out that grandma was suffering from heart attack i showed my dad he read it and fealt sad.Three days later we started the funeral my dad was shedding theost tears everyone was crying cause grandma Beth was the best person in the world,she was nice cared for everyone and never hated anyone it pained my heart to know that she would die one day. Because of my grandma death I wanted to live in America then we started living in America here we are now in my present life.
