“Oh no!” I exclaimed seeing my piggy bank broken. The piggy bank was a special one. It had green eyes, a springy tail, a fat body and legs half covered with plastic mud. Ordinary, huh? What wasn’t ordinary is that I always felt that it had life even when it was just a piggy bank.

It had a special dollar around it’s neck. It had a mark of an heart and an arrow. My mom and dad brought it for my 1st  birthday. Whenever I slid a coin in it, it squeaked “Oink.” I lifted some of the broken pieces of the piggy in my hands. While staring at those pieces, I found a pebble. I heard a giggle. Another giggle. I became aware who broke my piggy.

I turned around to see my 7 year old brother, Philip giggling happily. He stood by the door waiting for me to chase him. I acted as if I was in deep sorrow to lure him. As I expected, Philip started nearing me. I waited for him to come closer. He came nearer.

“Take this!” I yelled landing a hard blow on his nose.

“Owww!” he screamed, covering his nose by his hands.
