The girl in the red coat

The girl in the red coat

One day I was in a old, poor street walking with my mother. It was only my mother and myself not my father because he had cancer and passed away. I am 6 years old and I was wearing a red warm coat. My mother and I are walking because we are going to the shop to buy more food and water to keep our health up.

When we finished buying food and water we walked out of the shop and, I saw a old wrinkly man sitting in the corner with no food and water, he was very poor. So I said to my mother

“ can I go up to that man and give him some food and water and come back” and she said

“ yes you can go ”.

I went to him and gave him some food and water then he said

“ thank you kind girl “. After I gave food and water to the man he went home and I went back to my mother. He was very happy and joyful.

The next day I was walking to the shop and I saw that same man sitting in the corner yesterday, I was thinking that he’s doing that just to get more food and water from me, but I ignored him and looked away.

He looked at me but I just didn’t look back, I kept walking. As I kept walking I said to my mother “ can we move faster “ but she said to me “ why “ and I said “ there’s that man from yesterday  looking at me wanting more food and water “ and she said “ why do you have to give food and water to him in the first place, then she stopped and said yes because she knows she talking for ages.

We finally finished getting our stuff and now we can go home and get away from that man looking at me with his old rusty beard and his sleepy old eyes.

After seeing the man we went home and I straight away took my red coat off and got some food and water, and went in my room and watched tv. Until I saw that man outside my window banging on it, he must of followed my mother and I when we were walking.

My heart was beating really fast and I couldn’t breathe, like I am having an heart attack. I took a big deep breath and breathed and breathed until I felt better.

I yelled and called my mum really loud and she ran fast to my room like that was her first time. She came in and she saw the man outside my window so she called the police. The police came and drag the man into the car, the man was yelling so loud that he didn’t want to go to jail but he did. One police officer came and talked to my mother and said we are safe now, and now we can relax and watch tv.
