The next day I come to school I here the bell rings and see Mars run by me and grab me by the wrist "run!!" She shouts were suddenly being chased by security guards she climbs up the fence and is still holding onto my wrist and helps me up we run far into the woods.

      We stop at one of the tallest trees there's a beautiful lake next to it "this is it" she said I look at her with confusion and tell her "your different" she turns around with an evil grin then says "oh really, how so"  "I can't exactly put my finger on it but you are" she smiles "ok tell me when you know" she begins climbing up the tree and I'm starting to notice the branches are growing out in a stair step she grabs my hand and says "hurry up come on" I'm now running up the magical branch stair step when we get to the top of the tree there's a little cottage that she takes me into. It looks like a normal house. In one corner there's a bed with a chair next to it and a book in the other corner there's a stove and oven and tiny fridge obviously made by her in the other corner there's a wooden tub with carvings and design chipped into it and buckets of water next to it. I look around and ask "did you make all of this" "yes she responds" and sits down on her bed.

      I sit down next to her so do you have any family she looks at me "no use to have a mom and dad but they were captured and killed when I was 7 for some reason they didn't want to kill me and I got away but I had to live on my own" "wow that's amazing you built all this yourself" I respond "I guess" "what about you?, any brothers or sisters" "yes" I respond then stay silent. Then it hits me "I know how your different" "how" she asks with a smile "everyone in this town looks miserable and looks like they hate life except for you, you had to build a house and live on your own till you were 7 and you look so cheerful upbeat and happy anyways, you look like you love life" she turns around with an evil grin and says "there's two types of people in the world some people wine and cry about little things that don't even matter then there's other people who have to go through a lot and still choose to be happy. To me happiness is a choice and I choose to be happy".
