"the Sad Story Of Sara Glum"
by
Pearl


t was a gloomy day- there was no doubt about it.The kids all shivered under bed. After all, on a dark, scary morning, you don't exactly go out and yell 'Good Morning!'

Sara Glum was no different. Hidden under her duvet, she knew that there was something negative about this particular day. Of course,as you can tell by the name, Sara's family was - what you call queer.

Everyday started out in crabby morning moods and ended with Sara afraid of Ghouet, a vampire even the saviour of Vampires, Sunbeam, they called her, could not resist backing away from.

Soon,her chicky alarm clock rang and Sara sighed. If only her life were a dream-then she'd never have to endure this pain of living life. She would continue sleeping and never wake up. For a life without love is not worth living. What Sara did was go through the entire 'ENOUGH!' routine, from the moment she stepped into the kitchen till the very minute she squrmed into bed.

What happened next, Sara knew not- she never lived to see her parents cry- for her.



The End
