Hi! I am Rosy. I lived in the country as a child. It was an excellent time of my life. I remember one day, I was going to the river because it was my favorite place to swim. As I was
walking, I saw a little girl. She was very beautiful with her long black hair. She was crying. I immediately ran up to her, and as I was getting closer, she stood up and ran away. I ran faster
to catch up with her. When I finally got close to her, she turned, and I could see her face was full of scars. I screamed like crazy and returned to my house. I told the story to my mom and
she told me that happened to girls like me who didn’t listen to their mothers. My mom always told me not to go to the river alone, but I never paid attention. It was my favorite
place and I had lots of fun there. However, I learned the lesson. So, kids always listen to your mother!! I really don’t know how, but they always know wha t is best for us.
