Authors Note: I am
writing this little piece on prediction because I am reading a book where a boy
gets sent off to a place in the middle of nowhere. I have wondered what his guardians
thought what would happen to him so I’ve created these three paragraphs on what
I’d think they would expect what to happen.
“I don’t know why I care so much about what happens to this
boy, I mean I never cared about him when we had to take care of him? I just don’t
understand.”Matt’s Aunt could not stop talking about Matt to her boyfriend. She
had to take care of him after both his parents died in a car crash. In a car he
was supposed to be in. As Matt’s Aunt and her boyfriend discussed this, she
couldn’t help but thinking how quickly he would come back and have to go to
prison.
“You know? I don’t think that boy will even last ONE month
there. He has always been creating trouble for us so there is no doubt he won’t
last long with that Ms. What’s her name? Deveril? Such a weird lady she was.”
Matt’s Aunt went on and on about what she thought would happen to him while her
boyfriend had some ideas of his own which he wanted to share and so he did.
“I don’t know, you might be wrong. So yea his parents died
and that has to be very traumatizing. Maybe some hard work would be good for
the lad wouldn’t you say? Ms. Deveril lived on a farm so I’m sure the boy is
hard at work.” As soon as he said that he regretted it. His girlfriends face
just lit like a tomato and she liked like she was about to blow. “Are you
kidding me! That boy has never done anything good! I am so glad he is gone, he
never appreciated anything we did! AH!” She stormed out of the room only to say
one more thing. “Oh and by the way you can sleep on the couch tonight you piece
of junk!”
