Friends Forever

            by Felicia Evans

 

 

Skye was a very beautiful and energetic little girl. She loved to run, jump rope, sing, dance, and play with all her wonderful toys; she even loved to do artwork. Skye was jus like any other first grader but there was one problem, Skye had a hard time making friends. Even though she was a very playful girl, she had a hard time sharing.

          One Saturday afternoon Skye’s friend Daysha, came over to play with her, she was so excited to have Daysha come play with her. They cut paper and painted pictures and had a great time with each other until Skye started acting mean.

          “Hey Skye, do you want to play house now?” Daysha asked.

          “No, I want to keep drawing.”

          “Okay, well, I’m jus going to play with your dolls then.”

 

 

As soon as Daysha went to pick up one of Skye’s dolls, Skye got mad and snatched it away.

          “You didn’t ask me if you could play with that!” Skye yelled. Just then she noticed the head had popped of her doll and she begin to cry.

 

 

          “You broke my doll!!!”

          “Well you shouldn’t have snatched it from me SKYE!!!” Daysha said, while rolling her eyes. Just then Skye’s dad, David, came in to see what was going on.

 

 

“Hey, girls, what’s going on?” He said

“Daddy, Daysha broke my dolly.”

“No I didn’t. She snatched it out of my hands and the head came off.”

 “Clean up all these toys and both of you have a time out.”

Daysha began to cry because she thought she was getting in trouble.

          “I want to go home. I don’t want to play with Skye any more she’s mean.”

          “No I’m not?!” Skye yelled. Just then the doorbell rang and it was Daysha’s mom.

          “Hey Carol, thank God your here, these girls had a little argument and Daysha started crying.”  

          “Well what happened?” Carol asked.

          “Skye was being mean and it hurt Daysha’s feelings.” David said.

          “I think that Daysha and Skye should work out there problems before we leave, what do you think?”

          “I think that’s a great idea.”

So Daysha and Skye both sat down and they explained to each other what made them sad.

          “Skye when you snatched that doll out of my hand it really hurt my feelings because when you come to my house I always let you play with my toys and what you did was mean.”

          “I’m sorry I snatched the doll from you I just didn’t want you to play with it because you didn’t ask me first.”

          “But Skye, when you’re at my house I never make you ask to play with my toys. I like sharing with you, you’re my friend and that’s what friends do.”

          “Your right and I’m sorry I was mean to you. Do you forgive me?” Skye asked

          “Yes I forgive you.”

So the girls gave each other a big hug and became Best friends forever.
