I Will Never Forget You

    In a small town with patches of farms live a couple, Jack and his lover. They have lived a hard life since the farms are too barren for them to make ends meet. Therefore, Jack has no choice but to leave his lover for somewhere far away to strive for a living. Making up his mind, he is going to tell his girlfriend the cruel truth. He carries her to the beach; looking at the girl, he told her the decision. The girl sobs. Although she doesn’t  want him to leave, she supports him and respects his choice.


“Dear, I get something to tell you.”The girl then raises her head, looks into Jack’s eyes sincerely, and smiles lightly. Jack feels so sad that he does not know how to say. The scene of sea is beautiful, and the girl is so pretty and deserved love. Jack suddenly thinks that he should not leave. There must be some better ways to overcome the economical difficulties in life. He looks around. There is nothing in his country, but the farm. Jack thinks it is very difficult to be successful in that kind of situation.


Jack is now in a dilemma that he just cannot make a decision so quickly. Then he asks the girl to give him three more days to think over about it while the girl smiles like a shining sun, thinking that Jack would stay in the end. However, something out of there expectation happens. Among these days, a wealthy family comes to his country. What’s more, they have a beautiful, graceful daughter who is still single. As soon as seeing this girl from rich family, the evil thought comes to Jack’s mind immediately. He thus thinks that this girl is the one who suits him most as she has a rich family and she is young somehow. Cruelly, he told his girlfriend something unbearable that makes her burst into tears.


Finally, Jack decides to marry the girl to improve his economic situation. The family’s host likes Jack very much and is willing to give his daughter to Jack. However, Jack adds one condition to the marriage. Many years later, the girl still can’t forget Jack and loves him deeply. Nonetheless, Jack never contacts with her.


 Strangely, the girl gets an amount of money each month that is enough for her to improve her economic situation. She begins to ask others about the situation. Finally, it turns out that Jack asked the family to give his ex-girlfriend economic support every month. She then bursts out into tears and she knows the fact that Jack will never forget her even though he is other woman’s husband. Similarly, she will remember him in her mind also.

A Day of Alexander

Alexander is an elementary school student. In the morning, he woke up and found that the gum which he forgot to spit the last night was in his hair and the sweater he was going to wear was dropped in the sink. Besides, when eating breakfast, he didn’t find anything but cereal in his cereal box in contrast to his two brothers. Then, he began to think that he was going to have a terrible, not good, bad day.


Things just went on as he thought in the morning. In the school bus, he sat between other students and was squeezed. In school, no matter what he did, his teachers were dissatisfied. Moreover, his best friend, Paul, said that Alexandra wasn’t his best friend anymore. All the things made him think that he was going to have a terrible, horrible, very bad day. However, one good thing happened to him when he felt disappointed. The most popular girl, Jenny who has big blue eyes and curly blond hair came to him; she seemed to be shy. ” What a cute girl!” Alexander thought. Then the girl gave Alexander a pink letter, kissing him in the face quickly, and ran away. Alexander was stunned; he blushed immediately. He unfolded the letter and it was written: I have adored you for a long time; can you be my best friend? Feeling ecstatic, he went into the classroom with a big smile on his face.


 In lunch time, bad things happened again. His classmates all had a dessert in their lunch box except Alexandra. He started to feel disappointed. While he lowered his head, eating his lunch, suddenly he heard someone calling his name. He then stood up and looked out the classroom. To his surprise, it was his mom that stood by the door. She carried a chocolate cake for Alexander. Full of happiness, Alexander changed his mind and thought that things didn’t go bad as he earlier thought.


After school, he went home. He stood by the door, waiting for his mom to drive him to the dentist. When he was looking around, he saw something sparkling on the ground. It was a beautiful diamond. Meanwhile, his mom ran into the garden nervously, looking for something in a flurry. Alexander took out the diamond and asked her mom whether she was looking for it. To his astonishment, his mom shouted out and gave him a big hug. Sighed with relief, Alexander’s mom thanked him and decided to buy the video game which Alexander had longed for.


A day passed. In the bed, the boy continued to think about what had happened today. Things went from bad to good. He was glad that he changed his thought in the afternoon because the positive attitude made him lucky the rest of the day. He thought that if he still held the negative thinking, he would be more unlucky. Therefore, he decided to be optimistic all the time; he believed that only by holding the right attitude can he leave unlucky things away.
