The Little Girl

The Move

Once upon a time, there was a little girl she was the most beautiful little girl you'd ever see, nothing compared to her beauty. She was perfect except one tiny detail she was paralyzed. she was stuck in a wheelchair, but that didn't stop her she had a lot of friends and they used to help her and play with her. The little girl's life was perfect until one day. Her mother fell sick. She had cholera. Soon the families days grew dark and gloomy until finally, her mum died. Then everyday the girl grew sadder and lonelier. She wouldn't play outside or even leave the house. as a few years went by she became very pale and sleep-deprived as well as her dad but one day he came home looking a little brighter than usual. He told her about how he had got a new and better job just a few towns away. Her face smiled a bit but then went back to gloomy as she remembered her memories here. For the next few days, they packed their stuff in their carriage, on the back of their horse and in the cart that was trailing behind it. Finally, the day came to move. The dad lifted the girl into the carriage and put her wheelchair in the cart. Her dad walked the horse for a bit and then came to see if the girl was OK. When he looked in she was sleeping so he let her be. Finally, they arrived and unpacked their stuff. The little girl decided just to look around. You see the townspeople have never seen a paralyzed girl before so they thought she was extremely weird and stayed away from her. That just made the little girl feel even sadder so she stayed in her house (again) and never even looked out side. Every night she'd cry herself to sleep but never tell her father that she was unhappy because he always looked bright when he came home she had to lie about having friends at school and because she was paralyzed all her teachers acted weird around her so she was never invited to parents evenings so every weekend when her dad was at work she would just stroll around the bottom floor of the house she never went upstairs as it was too hard for her.
