Maria And Her Sisters
Chapter 1 – The
start
Maria
was a small little girl of 8. She was the youngest in the family. The eldest
was Reema,18 years old, then came Jose, 11 years, and then finally our Little
Maria. Maria had wide, eager, curious, and green eyes, and a fair complexion.
Then came Jose, she had cute, wide, and green eyes, and fair complexion.
Finally came Reema, with a look same as the other sisters. And there were Mrs. Johnson
and Mr. Johnson, who were very kind people and were ready to give anything to
needy people despite their poverty.
The
other sisters often complained loudly about ‘How poor they were’ and ‘How they
wished to live a life like the other girls’. But Maria never complained, she
cheerfully used to do all chores assigned to her and lived happily. Her sisters
were very jealous of her, as Maria was the one who would be given second
helpings of dessert and the least chores. One day Maria’s sisters thought of a
plan.
They
called Maria to play ball. Then they played. As soon as the ball reached Jose,
she threw it so high in the air that it crashed in the what the children called
the ‘Haunted House’. “There goes your old ball” Reema said to Maria. “Now go
and get it ‘cause it is YOUR ball. Go!” Maria stepped on the doorstep of the
house, pale, frightened, but determined to prove that she was not a coward.
I am eagerly waiting for your comments so that I can understand what is wrong and improve upon it. Also please type what you think will happen to these loving sisters in their future in the chat box. 🙏 |
