-1Susie's Bad Day
Susie stepped through the door of her neohome and grabbed the blanket on the couch and curled right up. The warm, fuzzy blanket was wonderful after her long trip home. She had gone off to Neopia Central to get some food when it started to storm! She ran the rest of the way to the store, and by the time she got there the rain had died down a bit. Whew… she thought. She gathered up some groceries that they needed. Kau farm milk, celery, and some carrots. As she started to ring up, BOOM!! The thunder came. Oh great, she had finally outrun the storm and was FINALLY dry, and now it was raining again, and she had to run all the way home with a bag full of groceries!!
Susie paid the bill, grabbed the bag, and walked out the door. It was raining so hard it felt as though someone was throwing baseballs at her! She started to jog slightly, hoping that she could get home quicker, but without spilling the groceries. As she came up to the small dirt road between her neighborhood and downtown, Susie tripped over a pot hole and fell right to the ground. Oh joy, she was already drenched, and now she was filled with mud, and the groceries were ruined! Susie was so disappointed, she knew that they REALLY needed those groceries!! You see, her younger sister, May, was sick with the Neoflu and had to eat lots of vegetables and drink lots of milk.
For the best of her sister, Susie headed back to the store to buy the items again. While there, many pets stared at her as she walked down the aisles in her mud-covered fur. She checked out, and made here way out the door again. This time she made her way home much better, and the rain died down a bit so it didn't hurt as badly and it hit her. That day Susie went through a lot, but she learned one lesson: always bring an umbrella when you go out to town. You never know what the weather might bring up!!!
