Creative piece (1)

Short Story.

The hard gusts of wind blew Nick's perfect, blonde hair as he came outside to do yard work with his parents. Nick has been dreading this day for a long time. They could be outside for hours planting flowers, planting grass in different spots and picking and hauling rocks. Nick was for sure not looking forward to this day. On top of doing grueling work, it had to be 80 degrees outside and humid. Outside it felt like 100 degrees! But Nick's parents needed his help.

Nick's mom yelled across the yard to Nick and said " Nick can you please go help your brothers and sister haul and pick rocks?" Nick sighed but agreed. He went over to his brothers and sister. Nick thought to himself and said, hey it doesn't look that bad over there it actually looks kind fun. He said "hi" to his siblings and started picking rocks all over his yard. The five siblings made up a song to make them work faster and have more fun. Nick didn't think all the work was as bad as he thought it was going to be. After three hours they were done! Nick said he actually had a little fun today. Everybody was very tired and they all wanted to hang out for the rest of the night. They rented a movie and all curled up on the couch. They all fell asleep. Nick really had fun this day.

Authors Note: This story is made up. There is no purpose to any of the characters or anything. But I have been through a lot of the things Nick did in this story because I just moved.

  1. This is a cute story. Some suggestions I have for you would be to give your posts an actual title, rather than "Creative Piece," or "journal." Also, it's best to put the author's note at the top so the reader knows what they are reading beforehand.
