Just Desert

Once upon a time there was a really poor family they lived in a village somewhere in London. This family had eight people in it. Niki was the moms name, John was the dads name, the three brothers’ names were Alex, Matt and Adam and the sisters’ names were Helen, Hazel and Elizabeth. This family was really poor that it was really hard for them to get breakfast, lunch and supper. The only one who was working in the family was John; he was a market Gardner that was working for a really rich Pearson. This rich Pearson had a huge backyard behind his house; he had tomatoes growing on the left side, pumpkins growing in the middle and water melons growing on the right side.

Every day when he passes through the pumpkins he always gets a cut on his leg somewhere, but he never knew how because he almost does not feel it. After every day when he finishes working on the back yard he gets, 5 tomatoes, 1 pumpkin and 1 water melon and it was their supply for the whole day. On the next day when the rich Pearson was looking through his garden and walking through the pumpkins area and a root suddenly jumped out of the ground and hit the rich Pearson right in the heart. Later that day when John came to work he saw the Pearson lie on the ground dead.

So he decided to call the hospital to pick up the Pearson and the Persons lawyer. When the Ambulance came they took the Pearson really fast and left, and then the lawyer came and told John that he can have all the food and his garden. On the next day John told to His Wife Niki about opening a store right beside their house and she agreed, so John and the boys went to start to build the store that probably look like a lemonade stands at the front, and Niki and the girls started to make flyers and organizing all the food into containers. When it got darker and they all went completely to sleep, something strange happened the pumpkins container started moving, and a pumpkin jumped out of it and went into the house.

This pumpkin was a little strange every time he was scared or angry he got brighter and brighter, so when he got to the house he made himself glow to try not being scared. The pumpkin always could make itself glow sense he was “born”. While the pumpkin was travelling around the house Hazel woke up, she woke up because she couldn’t sleep and wanted to go to the washroom. When she was in the washroom she heard strange noises coming out of the kitchen. It was the pumpkin eating the half of the kitchen, but when Hazel went to check the kitchen she did not see anything but light jumping out of the window, but all she thought is it was just a dream. On the next day when the whole family woke up they saw that their whole kitchen was eaten by something but they did not by what but they just decided to fix it.

John was fixing it with the help of his sons and Niki was at the store with her daughters and actually selling stuff already at the end of the day they got 200 dollars. They used this money to buy a whole supply of food for at least a month. It was the first time ever that this family actually got money and bought something in their whole entire life and they were proud of this. On the next day when they woke up they saw that their living room was missing and it looked like it was eaten. But they still didn’t care about and just fixed it again. Niki decided to make a soup one day, a pumpkin soup which their all family liked. Niki wanted to use the last pumpkin to make the soup, but when she lowered the knife the pumpkin grew even brighter.
