Chapter Five: I hadn't grown into my ears yet.
The gang all
sat around waiting for Charlie. He'd run off into the woods for
'intermission' as he put it, as in he had to pee.
"I'm back
I'm back who wants to hear more!" Charlie cried.
"You're
fly's unzipped" Claire said flatly.
Charlie blushed and
zipped before continuing.
"The next morning Grandpa Joe and
I waited outside the factory with the other children and their
parents. Everyone stared at us because we were poor and I hadn't
grown into my ears yet."
"You still haven't"
Sawyer said.
"Bite me Sawyer. Anyway, the gates opened, and
in we went and I felt this little jolt in my stomach like I swallowed
a chipmunk. And a voice called us forward to a great stage with
curtains.
Then they opened and my god was it scary! There were
puppets dancing and singing:
'WIlly Wonka Willy Wonka The amazing
chocolatier!
Willy Wonka Willy Wonka everybody give a cheer!
He's modest, clever and so smart he barely can restrain it
and
so much generosity..."
"CHARLIE SHUT UP!" Claire
shouted.
"And stop dancing like a leprechaun"
Charlie
had been doing a 'merry' little jig to the song, but sat down
blushing.
"Then the puppets caught on fire and man was that
a laugh! I laughed and laughed and laughed! Everyone stared at me; I
was laughing so hard. Then behind us we heard clapping and a voice
saying: "WOW!"
