It has been a week and Augustus Gloop already got his ticket. We are celebrating Charlie's birthday today and I was walking home and decided to go see Wonka's Factory. I never went there and I really wanted to see it in real life.
When I got there I could smell the chocolate and it smells amazing! I've never had a Wonka Bar and if this is how it smells, it probably tastes amazing! I stood there for a while but then walked home.
I got home to hear various happy birthdays, "Melody your late" Ms. Bucket- Mom said "I know I passed by Wonka's Factory today and I had to pick up Charlie's present" I told her.
I watched Charlie open the presents that mom, and my two grandmas gave him.
"And here's a little gift from grandpa George and me." Grandpa Joe said giving Charlie the wrapped Wonka Bar.
"I think I know what this is" he opens the gift to find the Wonka "it is, a Wonka!"
"Open it, Charlie. Let's see that golden ticket."
"Wouldn't that be fantastic?"
"It's not fair to raise his hopes" mom scolded Grandpa Joe 'it really isn't, but have your hopes high anyway' I thought.
"Never mind. Go on, open it, Charlie. I want to see that gold."
"Stop it, dad"
"I've got the same chance as anybody else, haven't I?" Charlie asked
"You've got more, Charlie, because you want it more. Go on, open it."
He looks at us for a quick second "here goes" he turns his back and opens it "I've got it!"
A couple of excited shouts came out "Charlie stop playing" I said watching him turn around "fooled you, didn't I. You thought I really had it."
"Never mind, Charlie. You'll find one."
"Here, everybody have a bite"
Multiple protests were heard, Charlie turned to me "have you ever had a Wonka Bar?" I shook my head "then here have some! you cant live your life wothout having one!" he held some out for me and I took it, it tasted amazing! "Wow, it's really good" they all laughed
"well here is my present" i gave him a bracelet that said :I Love You: "it matches mine!" i held up my bracelet that said :To The Moon And Back: "do you like it?"
he nodded and hugged me "thanks melody!"
-later that night-
Everyone was asleep "Good night Charlie" i said patting Charlie's head "see you tomorrow" I started walking out.
"Melody" I turned to look at him, "yes?"
"Can you sing me another song please?"
"Of course I would!" I sat down at the end of the bed "what song?"
" you can choose"
"Ok" I breath in and started singing.
-Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it with dew
Cover it with chocolate and a miracle or two
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Who can take a rainbow
Wrap it in a sigh
Soak it in the sun to make a strawberry lemon pie
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
And makes the world taste good
Willy Wonka makes
Everything he bakes
Satisfying and delicious
Talk about your childhood wishes
You can even eat the dishes
Who can take tomorrow
Dip it in a dream
Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream
The candy man
The candy man can
The candy man can 'cause he mixes it with love
and makes the world tastes good
And the world tastes good
'Cause the candy man thinks it should…-
Charlie is asleep, I smile "goodnight Charlie" I walked out to see the grandparents still awake, I started blushing "you heard me?" They nodded.
"You have a lovely voice dear" Grandma Georgina said
"Really?" They nodded "thanks, well goodnight".
-time skip-
It was about a week after mike t.v. Got his golden ticket, I keep telling Charlie he will get his chance but he doesn't believe me. In one week it was gonna be Friday,October 1st!
I was awoken to grandpa Joe and Charlie talking, as I walked over to them and sat down, "what's going on here?" Charlie had a Wonka bar in his hand.
"Grandpa Joe got a Wonka bar using his money I gave to him for tobacco."
I looked at grandpa Joe "told you, you were gonna need it" he shakes his head "yeah yeah, go on ,Charlie open it!" He quickly opens it to find a ordinary chocolate bar, no gold ticket, " you know, I bet those Golden Tickets make the chocolate taste terrible.
We both hug "it's alright Charlie, you are going to get that ticket, I promise! Now of to bed" he gets off the bed and goes to his own room.
-time skip again-
It's two days until the 1st and I got home right when the tv was turning on.
-That's it, that's it!. It's all over! The Wonka Contest is all over. The Fifth and Final ticket has been found, and we've got a live report coming in directly now from Paraguay, South America.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is finished, the end has come. The fifth and final golden ticket has been found right here in Paraguay. The finder is lucky Alberto Minoleta, the multimillionaire owner of gambling casinos throughout South America.
Her is the most recent picture of Alberto the happy finder, the man who has finally put an end to Wonkamania for all the world-
"Turn it off. Well that's that. No more golden tickets"
"A whole lot of rubbish, the whole thing"
"Not to Charlie it wasn't. A little boy's got to have something in this world to hope for, what's he got to hope for now"
"Let's not wake him" I look at her "he is not asleep" I said going to his room and walking next to his bed to see him crying "hey Charlie, you alright?" He looked at me "you said I would get one, there are no more tickets left" I pay his head before sitting down.
"You still are ,Charlie! When you least expect it, good night Charlie." And with that I left, i look at them before writing a note and went to bed.
-time skip-
I was restocking the shelves when Charlie came in "hey Charlie! You want the biggest right?" He nodded. I turned and grabbed a scrumdiddlyumptious "here this is the biggest!"
"Thanks!" He gave me the coin and started eating, fast "hey, hey, hey, take it easy. You'll get a stomach ache if you swallow it like that" he nodded and started to leave "bye!"
"Bye now" I waved, I turned around to grab a Wonka Bar, I smiled I looked behind me to see Charlie "you want one for Grandpa joe?"
He nodded "here have a regular Wonka Bar this time? And wait here before going outside!" He looked at me but didn't question it.
I went in the back and took my apron of and found bill "hey I'm gonna go home early, something happened with the grandparents." He looked at me before looking at the clock "ok, see you tomorrow"
'Yeah, tomorrow' I waved at him and found Charlie waiting "let's go!"
We walked outside to see a commotion near the newspaper stand, I saw Charlie run behind a man, he ran to me and opened the bar to find the gold ticket.
"I told you" he was about to say something when he was cut off by a woman pulling him away into the crowd, I got on the other side and grabbed Charlie's hand, we both started running until we got to the tunnel where I stopped him.
"Give me the ticket, you need to find another way home ok?" He handed me the ticket "is something gonna happen in there?" I nodded and he ran the other way "see you at home"
"Bye Charlie!" And I walked in the tunnel.
