Twelve year old Jeremy Withers and his little seven year old sister maria were walking home from school, They decided to cut through the woods to save time. It was a very creepy place, with creepy shadows, and pointy twisted branches. If you listened the wind might sound like a desperate scream begging for help. As they were walking, Jeremy stopped, something had caught his eye. They found a little silver remote on the ground and they picked it up. "Why does it only have one button on it?" Maria asked. I don't know. Jeremy said. He just sat there turning it over and over in his hand. He finally put it in his pocket and they were on their way again.
When they got home jeremy dropped his stuff and went upstairs to his room. When he got up there he took the remote and started examining it. He had also wondered why there was only one button on it. He left it on his bed and went to say hi to his mom. His dad had died in a car accident the year before. He remembered his mom had a double shift that night because of the money problems they had. Bills kept on coming in one after another. After one thing was out of the way another one came in.
They saw a car roll into the driveway and ran outside to greet his grandma, Judy in the driveway. Maria gave her a big hug. Jeremy asked her why she was there. Then he remembered tommorow was his birthday. His grandma opened the trunk and told him to take a look. He went back to the trunk and it was stuffed so full with presents you couldn't fit a crowbar in there and still be able to close the trunk.
Jeremy and his sister helped their grandma carry the presents in. Jeremy noticed that one was pretty heavy and that it was pretty big two. The same amount of presents came in for his little sisters birthday just two months earlier. They finally finished carrying the presents in and sat down on the couch. Their grandma said she was staying the night. When their mom got home, she was surprised to see her mother their. "I thought you were coming tomorrow." She said. "Nope, I thought I should come early because you picked up some extra hours at work Lillian." "Mom I dont like Lillian call me Lily.
