i, I'm Riley. I'm 8 1/2. I go to William's Lake public school.
There are two kids, Freddy and Jake who are best friends. One
day their friendship almost ended.
It all started on Monday the 15th. A new kid moved in.
He was a real bully. He stole lunch money, he was that kind of
bully.
Since Jake and Freddy were best friends they told each
other their locker codes. One day there was a Science Fair. Whoever
won would get a Tyco Ric Tantrum. Jake heard about it and started
his project early. The next day he was done. His project was
about Volcanos. He put it in his locker, but the new kid put
a little piece of wood in the locker so it wouldn't close. He
stole Jake's project and used it to win the Science Fair.
When Jake looked back in his locker, it was gone! He knew
who to blame. "Freddy! Why did you do it?" "I
didn't do it, honest," said Freddy. "Yea, right!
You are the only one who knows my locker number," said Jake.
"I know, but I didn't do it," Freddy said. "Sure,"
said Jake, "I'm never going to talk to you again."
"Well that's just fine," said Freddy.
They weren't friends for two weeks, but on the third week
they just couldn't stand it. They had no one to play with and
no one would help them with their home work. Jake ran as fast
as he could to Freddy's house and rang the door bell. Freddy
opened the door. Jake said, "hi Freddy." "Hi
Jake," Freddy said back. They both said, "I just
wanted to say...". "You go first," Freddy
said. Jake said, "Freddy, I just wanted to say sorry
for calling you names and saying that you stole my Science Project."
"You took the words right out of my mouth," said
Freddy.
When Jake got home the new kid's parents were standing
at the door.Jake said, "hello, what brings you here?"
"Ummm, you see, my son stole your project to win the
contest. This is your Tyco Ric Tantrum," said the parents.
When they left, Jake almost fainted bacause of all the
things that were caused by the rotten new kid. He looked up at
the sky and said, "there really is magic in friendship!"
