Forgot Something

When Jess's music teacher Miss Edmund wanted him to go to the Art Museum for the day he was so happy he asked

his mum if he could go and she didn't really say anything cause she was asleep but Jess took it as a

yes so he went to greet her outside in her car.

Miss Edmund, " Hi Jess I m glad you could come with me today."

Jess, " Sure thing I haven't got much to do today so I m happy to hang out with you."

In the car driving down the road past Leslie's house for some reason he got a bad feeling in is gut

unsure why but they kept on driving past down the road as they got further away

he got restless something bad was happening he knew it.

Miss Edmund, "Jess what is it do you need to go back?"

Jess , "I hate to say this but yes I do something is not right I can feel it please can we go back?"

Miss Edmund, "Of Course we can I'm sure everything will be fine."

On there way back a sense of urgency was rising with Jess when they drove past

Leslie's house he order her to stop and he got out of the car and ran to there door noticing the police cars around the house.

Knocking on the Burke's door Leslie's dad answered it seeing Jess there he didn't no what to say or do but he told him that

Leslie's was gone and something about a rope snapping but after that Jess didn't here anything he took off To Terabitha.

Hours later he was home and his family was worried about where he had been all day but he explain and told them about Leslie.

Maybell, "She's gone ... I'm sorry Jess ."

Couldn't take being in the room any more he went to his room and looked at his drawings crying when

he came to the one he made of Leslie.

Next day at the wake for Leslie making there way into the Burke's house he spoke to Leslie's dad and he said.

Dad, "Jess Leslie loved you at her old school she didn't make any friends they thought she was odd but you gave her so much thankyou.

Jess, "You'll welcome."

Walking away he spotted Ms Edmund and going up to her she turned around to notice him there and was surprised.

Edmund, " Jess I m so sorry about Leslie."

Jess, " Yeah well I guess we forgot something didn't we Leslie would've like to come but Forgetting about her never."

Needing someone to blame was what he felt like he needed but then he started to remember all the good times with Leslie.

As Jess left the house he could here a song from inside and making his way to Terabitha it echoed in his head.

Sometimes You think You'll Be Find by Yourself
Cause a Dream is a Wish You Make all alone
