Charlie's POV
I had just reached the factory gate, I was taking in how amazing the factory looked from the outside. I just wished I could see what it looked like on the inside... I overheard two men saying how the last golden ticket had been found in Russia, I dropped my head and started walking back to my house. As I was walking I saw something flapping in the snow... it was a 10 dollar bill. I smiled at it and went straight to the store. I knew what I was going to buy with it. I walked to the store and went to the counter.
Charlie: "one whipple scrumptious fudgemallow delight please" I say passing the money to the shopkeeper called Bob.
Bob: "take one" he said taking the money and smiling at me.
Lady reading the newspaper: "the nerve of some people !!"
Bob: "forging a ticket !!! Come on..." he said in an annoyed tone. I opened the wrapper and saw something gold in the wrapper. I took it out and realised it was the golden ticket, my jaw dropped in shock and everyone around me had there jaws dropped too.
Bob: "it's a golden ticket... you found Wonka's last golden ticket !!!! In my shop too !!" He said excitedly
Random man: "I'll buy it from you !!! I'll give you 50 dollars and a new bicycle" he was quickly cut off by the woman that was reading the newspaper.
Lady: "are you crazy !? I'd give him 500 dollars for that ticket!!!" She then looked at me and said "will you give me the ticket for 500 dollars young man"
Bob: "enough of that!! Leave the kid alone !" He then looked at me "take the ticket and run home, don't look back do you understand ?" I just looked at him and smiled.
Charlie: "thank you !!"
I quickly ran out the shop and went home.
Charlie: "mom !!! Dad!!!! I found it !!!" I said still running "the last golden ticket !!! It's mine" I smiled and gave the ticket to Grandpa Joe. My mom and dad walked in shocked, mom had cabbage on her hands and dad was just stood next to her. Grandpa Joe looked at the ticket when out of nowhere...
Grandpa Joe: "YIPPEEE!!" He jumps out of bed with the ticket still in his hands. Everyone was shocked because grandpa Joe doesn't usually get out of bed.
Grandpa Joe: "here !! Read it aloud!!" He said to mom and dad, mom dropped everything on the floor and began to read the ticket.Mrs Bucket: "the first of February... that's tomorrow !!"
Grandpa Joe: "then there's not a moment to loose Charlie!! Wash your face, comb your hair, scrub your hands, brush your teeth, blow your nose!!"
Grandpa George: "GET THAT MUD OFF YOUR PANTS"
Mrs Bucket: "now we all must keep very calm... the first thing we need to decide is this...who is going with the Charlie to the factory?"
Grandpa Joe: "I will !! I'll take him, you leave it to me !!"
Mrs Bucket: "how about you dear ? Why don't you go ?"
Mr Bucket: "well... Grandpa Joe seems to know more about the factory then we do, provided of course if he feels well enough to go"
Grandpa Joe: "YIPPEEE" he starts dancing around again and looked at me.
Charlie: "no... we're not going..." everyone looked at me sadly "someone offered me 500 dollars for the ticket, I'm sure someone would pay more. We need the money more than we need the chocolate"
Grandpa George: "young man... come here" I walk over to him. "There's plenty of money out there, they print more and more everyday. But this ticket, there's only 5 of them in the whole world and that's all there is ever going to be. Only a dummy would give something like this up for something as common as money.... are you a dummy?"
Charlie: "no sir..."
Grandpa George: "THEN GET THAT MUD OFF YOUR PANTS!!! THERES A FACTORY TO GO TO!!"
I smile and say goodnight, I run upstairs and go to bed. I quickly fall to sleep, trying to contain my excitement.
