Kayla's Story

Hi! My name is Bug. I am sad today. I was sad yesterday. I will be sad tomorrow. I am always sad. My parents say that it's because I have a disease, but I don't believe them. I think it's because I used to be happy all the time, and my parents made me get an operation to be sad sometimes. It didn't work, and it made me sad all the time. It could just be that I was born that way. Maybe it was because I fell in a hole, and got stuck for a week. I'll just tell you the story. One day I fell in a huge hole. It had lots of mud in the bottom. I had no food and no water. After I came out, it had been a whole week. I came out crying. I was still crying two years later. That might be why I am always sad, but it might not be. I might never know. Guess what, my parents came and told me it was because I fell in a hole. It turned out that when I finally stopped crying a frown sprouted on my face and it never went away. I can't believe my parents never told me that. Maybe the doctor told them not to tell me, Then I went to the doctor to ask. He said I was right. He told them not to tell me.
