Carter


Today, I was on a car ride to my cousin Carter's house. Whenever I think about Carter, I feel intrigued. Carter teaches me unique things. These things can be helpful. And now, I wonder what Carter is possibly gonna teach me this time. So, it was a little near sunset. 7:36 was the time. And the van was moving along. I had my head poking out of the window, as usual. The van was at a red light. I listened to the music that was playing at a nearby car. There were people playing a football game. "Wow, these games get more peculiar each time!" I thought. The light turned green, and the van proceeded. The van went into a neighborhood, the one where Carter lived, and I, enjoyed the cool breeze. Me coupled with the joy of Carter and an entertained soul could prove eager feelings for me. Well, later, the van got to Carter's driveway. I went out of the van and Dad came with He knocked the door of Carter's and it opened. I saw Carter, and he saw me. I walked towards Carter. "What's it gonna be today?" I asked Carter. "For now, nothing interesting." Carter answered. "Well, I do want to show you one thing." Carter then told me. My eyes lit up.

Carter guided me to his kitchen. "You see the refrigerator?" Carter asked. "Yeah- so." I said. "It's unguarded." Carter said. "Oh, I've got you!" I said. Carter went and opened the refrigerator door. "Now, Lucy, I want you to replace the apple on that shelf, with a rotten apple core." Carter said. So, I went to the garbage can, grabbed a rotten apple core, replaced the apple with the apple CORE, and paused. "Now what?" I asked. "RUN!" Carter answered. Carter and I ran to the living room. My Sister got blamed for the apple thing. "Now, the humans think it's YOUR sister Lucy, and now more love will be given to the dogs." Carter said. "Now, we wait till the end of dinner." Carter said. So, while our families were eating, Carter and I went upstairs.

The cat of Carter's family, Nikki, was on a bed. "Why are we up here?" I asked. "Just somewhere to hang out." Carter answered. Nikki came walking toward Carter and I. "Oh, hi Lucy." Nikki said, feeling a little tired. "Forget that elegant seeming feline, I want to teach you something else!" Carter said. "What is it?" I asked. "Oh, we're gonna get to that!" Carter said. He opened a window. "Oh- no!" I said. "Yes." Carter said. "Don't you just feel like you have to go to the bathroom, but your owners won't let you out?" Carter asked. "Pretty much, yeah!" I said. "Well, here's another way to get outside!" Carter said. "How?" I asked. "Jump out the open window!" Carter answered, and he jumped out the window, and landed on the ground. I poked my head out the window, and looked down at Carter. "Doesn't that sort of hurt?" I asked. "No! It's fun!" Carter said. I decided to try it, even though I felt reluctant of it. I jumped down. "Whoa!" I'd yell. Carter watched. I landed on the ground. "Oh, that IS fun!" I said. "I think our owners are done eating!" Carter said. "How do we get in?" I asked. "Easy, I dug a hole that goes from this backyard, to my cage!" Carter said. So, Carter and I walked into the hole, and, sure enough, we ended up at Carter's cage.

Carter led me to the dining room. And, sure enough, Carter and I received some leftovers. "This is some good steak!" I told Carter. Carter and I got almost all the leftovers, then we retreated. "Lucy, you did well!" Carter told me. Then, when I had to go, I told Carter "bye" and "thanks", and I went in the van with the rest of my family, and the van drove off.

So, Carter pretty much taught me the following
-How to get less neglected
-How to get outside the fun way
-And how to enjoy leftovers


When I got home, I started snoozing. I enjoyed my time with Carter. And I wonder what Carter is possibly gonna teach me next time I visit. . .
