My uncle Greg owns a meat shop in Maple street.I always come by after school so he can take me home.My school,Valleyside High,is right around the corner.My home is very far away.Very!I live in a big two story house that is in Riverside Ave. and it's 30 miles away from school.My name is Kassandra.I have a best friend named Kayla.Every day she comes home with me.I have a puppy named Snuggles.He is the cutest thing in the world!For me..Of course.Anyways I went over to the meat shop right now.
"Hey Kass the a**!"Uncle Greg said."UNCLE GREG!That's inappropriate for a young teenager!"I yell at him."Ha!I'm not listening to my Kass the-"I stopped him.I stuffed a piece of raw meat into his mouth so he can at least shut up!"Mm! Delicious meat!How'd you cook it on a grill?"he asked me.Blech!Just thinking about eating RAW meat,ew,RAW meat!"Umm,Uncle Greg..""yeah?" "I didn't even cook it.Its a piece of raw meat." He looked disgusted."Really?It tasted so good!" All I wanted to do was shut him up!"Uncle Greg," "Yeah, Kassandra?" "you forgot to feed Raul." "Raul?Raul's dead sweet pea!"My heart dropped.DEAD?Our family dog is dead!?"Oh no!Poor you!" " Nah,it's fine darling!Hop in the back seat!" I stood on the soft rug in the car.It felt as if I were softly petting a sheep's soft fur."You're gonna expect no friends this summer." I didn't get what he meant so I asked him again."this summer,is the worst summers you can ever imagine.A loved one will be arrested,a house will fall,and a monkey will die."O M G!What did he mean by all of this?What did he mean about all the disaster?A loved one,could be family or a friend!
