Cara's POV

I spent the whole day working yet finding time to see if there were any updates. But all that happened all the contestants left one at a time, the first covered in chocolate, then a girl who was purple, then the bratty girl covered in rubbish, then a rather tall but skinny boy walked out. I didn't bother to watch the interviews with the children and their parents, I couldn't bare to hear a bad word against .

I have to admit I did start to worry, an hour after the TV kid had come out, Charlie and Grandpa Joe hadn't left as far as I could see.

Meg abruptly stated " You should go home and rest, and don't worry I am sure Willy Wonka took good care of his guests"

"Looks like it" I muttered. They both knew I didn't have a TV at home so wouldn't be able to watch. I was going to argue but couldn't see the point, so I gave in and headed home I walked the whole way home, wouldn't let Meg do anything because she was pregnant and that does mean more work for me which I am grateful means I can send more money home and help out now Dad has lost his job but also it keeps me busy so I don't think about how much I am missing my family.

Once I got home I couldn't forget about the factory, How did Charlie find a ticket? The money at home was really tight , they didn't have enough to eat so how did Charlie get a bar. Why hadn't Charlie left the factory with the others? Was he okay,a factory could be a dangerous place. had told her that. She hoped Charlie's dreams hadn't been ruined. Charlie had always dreamed about the factory, now he's seen it, it might not be what he expected. might have changed since I was a child, he might have ruined Charlie's dreams , if he had done that to my little brother I would never forgive him and I don't think I would ever be able to look Charlie in the eyes again because it was me and Grandpa Joe that filled his head with stories about him.

After what seemed like an eternity of worrying but in reality was only an hour I fell asleep, a dreamless sleep. When I awoke I didn't really feel any better for that sleep in a way I felt worse for it, but I still had a job to do, so after getting ready I left for work. When I got to work the day was like an ordinary day except today seemed to last I finally got home I realised I hadn't heard anything about Charlie all day , so maybe he had gone home after I had left and gone home. Maybe Meg was right maybe I do over worry about everything, maybe I should try not to worry as much.

Charlie's POV

I was in the most amazing place in the whole world: Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory . All of the other kids had gone and had said I had won, but when I asked what he giggled madly and started on walking. I can see why Cara could remember him from when she was so young, and she was right he really is one of a kind.

"No time to dally when wonders await" remarked without warning as I started to struggle to keep up. Then we made an unexpected turn and we were in a plain little room, that didn't match the rest of the factory and inside there was a glass box.

"This is my Great Glass Wonkavator, let's hope it works I only invented it this morning" chimed happily "All aboard ,Charlie as you are closest to the button. Push that button"

"The one that says 'Don't push' ?" Charlie asked in awe

'' That's the one, well go on then"

" Something crazy's going to happen now, isn't it"

"How'd you guess?'' Wonka replied emotionless. Then all of a sudden the Wonkavator started to move and seemed to float and then after a moment we started flying out of the factory and we were floating above the town and I hate to admit it when I looked down and could see the world under my feet I felt very ill but then again I have total faith in and so after a moment I decided just to enjoy the ride.

"Where do you live?''

At this question I started looking and then I saw the lob sided shack and it was Grandpa Joe who pointed out our house. I didn't see press anything but then we were flying towards the house at full speed. Yet landed the Wonkavator perfectly just outside the door.

Then Grandpa Joe lead the way and me and followed behind and entered the house. I couldn't believe it Willy Wonka, the worlds greatest candy maker was in my house. I wish Cara was here to see this.

Wonka's POV

Charlie looked nervous about me going into the house, when I was inside,it was smaller on the inside. As I walked in I could see my wrappers on the wall and there was a model of my factory made out of toothpaste caps , then there was a beautifully embroidered blanket, with the design of one of my original bars . I could tell that Charlie was definitely the person I wanted to win .I could see the whole family were watching me intently. They were all there, except Cara.

"Hello , you must be Charlie's family." The family smiled and nodded "Well as I am sure you are all well aware,Charlie is a special little boy. So special in fact that he won the contest and now I was wondering,What do you think of my factory Charlie"

"I think it is the most wonderful place in the entire world, "

"Well,I'm glad you said that,very glad you want to know why?" I asked curiously

"Why?''

"Because my factory is your special prize" At this the whole family was shocked and thought they had misheard me.

"But , Why would you want to give away your factory?" Charlie asked with concern

"I'm an old man,Charlie" I explained "I'm a lot older than you think, I can't keep running my factory forever, I have to give it to someone new. And that someone,Charlie is you" Charlie looked to shocked to say anything.

''Really?'' Charlie asked shocked "I can come to the factory anytime I like?" He asked his second question a little scared.

"Well,I was wondering, if you want, you and your family can come and live in the factory" I said, really I could use some company, oompa-loompas are great to be around but they aren't human. " If you want I can have the house moved inside the factory if you want"

"I think we've been couped up for long enough" Grandpa Joe said with a bit of a smirk and laugh

"Well if you want to come to the factory now, or I could come back tomorrow" I asked

Then Charlie's mother , I assume, said " , you're being very kind but I think it is probably better you come tomorrow, as we will have a lot to sort out" She gestured over to the old people " Anyway I will need to tell our daughter about what's don't want her to worry next time she comes down. She's away working " She said looking at me , trying to explain why her daughter wasn't with her, but I saw at the mention of her the whole family looked like they might cry.

"Can't she come live with us in the factory" Charlie asked as if he was going to cry.

So I bent down to his level "Don't worry, how about we surprise your sister and go and pick her up. There is plenty of space in the factory for everyone as well as your sister."

" you might remember Charlie's sister" Grandpa Joe said " Her name was Cara, she used to sit in your office"

"Of course I remember Cara, she still inspires me to this day, with some of the most ridiculous things she used to say"

"Like what?" Charlie asked eagerly

"Well there's the fizzy lifting drinks, everlasting gobstopper and candy that gives you a tingly feeling in your tummy"

"Those were Cara's ideas?" Charlie didn't believe it.

"Well I better get going, I'll be back at 10 O'clock sharp tomorrow morning. Is that alright?" When I saw a nod from everyone, I threw my cane in the air and caught it and said "Good! Well then see you tomorrow"

With that I left the Bucket I was back at the factory I made all the necessary arrangements for the family. I had wheelchairs for the old people, in case they needed it but they looked more than able to stand for a few minutes in the Wonkavator.

Once all those jobs were done I decided to go to my room a lot earlier than usual, after I got into my pyjama's ,I went over to the window and saw the crowd had gone, and I realised for the first time I could see the small house. While looking at the house a pang of guilt ran through me, for I had decided when I closed my factory and saw the hurt look on Little Cara's face I was going to send her a Wonka for birthday's and Christmas' but the problem was I didn't know where she lived. Now I realise I have been able to see everyday and didn't know.

I went over to my draws and unlocked them and took out the photo albums, there was the one from when I opened my first shop, there were the annual BBQ's and Christmas parties and when I opened the factory. Looking through the albums I could see my Little Cara growing up before my eyes and then there were no more pictures so I wouldn't be able to see her grow up any further than what the pictures show. With that sad thought I went to bed whether it was because of being exited that I would have company, exited that soon Cara might be in my factory or if it was the guilt I don't know but I didn't sleep at all that night.
