Tony's Stories #5

 

Episode# 5

Tony's backpack

Beginning: What happened at the beginning?

Mom and Tony were in the shoe-store for new shoes for Tony. And all of a sudden Tony saw a backpack. It was shiny, and it had a gingerbread man in the front. So, Tony wanted it so bad. Tony knew Mom would never buy it because it was a hundred dollars. Well...Tony usually never gets these ideas, but he thought about selling cupcakes and making money. Tony is the revenge type. If he does not get what he wants, he wants payback. But this time not so much. He was in a good mood.

Mom was done shopping and she was taking us home. She was sus (suspicious) on us because we were always fighting in the car. And this time we were not. Well...not me, it is Tony who usually starts the fight. Tony told mom to take him to grandma's house. After she took Tony to grandma’s, I secretly hopped out too. I followed Tony. He rang the bell and out came grandma. 

“Oh hi Tony! What are you doing here?” 

“Nothing, let's go bake cupcakes.”

“Ohh, Ah. Okay?”

“Yay!!!!!!”

I followed him.

“Oh, Hi Jack?”

“Hi Meemaw Bye Meemaw”, and I went in.

“Bye!? … What in the world!?”

Grandma followed us. 

After Tony was done making cupcakes with grandma. He made a cupcake stand. Miss Jojo was taking her morning run. Miss Jojo is my math teacher. She loved Tony. She thinks he has a wild imagination which I am not saying he does not have, he has a lot of that!!! 

“Hi Tony!” 

“Hi”

“Can I have a cupcake?” 

“Okay!!”

“How much?” 

“Three dollars!!!”

“Here!” 

“Thanks”

“Bye”

“Bye Tony.!”

At the end of the evening Tony managed to get fifty dollars.

I was scared. Last time Tony got a backpack. He was acting as if it was his twin brother and was fond of it. I was annoyed because he asked me for a extra bowl of cereal for his backpack. Good thing mom hid it.

“Granny?”

“Yes Tony?”

“I only have fifty dollars”

“What? Fifty?”

“I know it is less”

“Tony, fifty dollars is not less!!”

“No?”

“What did you think I was like when I was young? Chilling in a castle?”

“Yes”

“We barely had one dollar”

“Really?”

“Yes, one dollar was so much money!!.”

“But I need fifty more dollars”

“I have an idea”

“Come on!!”

Meewmaaw baked a unicorn cake 

And Tony went out selling slices of it and managed to get forty dollars. He needed ten dollars. When he told us granny gave him five dollars, we heard a beeping sound. It was mom! She came to look for me, and she gave Tony the other five dollars. I was mad Tony was going to treat his bag like a person. 

But I have a plan.

Mom took Tony to the shoe store and went to the backpack place and got the bag.

After they went to sleep I  planned something. Wait and see.

The next morning…  

Middle: Usually the highest point of action in the story 

So, this is plan A:

I slowly sneaked into his room and took the backpack and dumped it in a bucket of slime and put it back in its spot. Tony woke up and saw the slimey backpack and was crying. Mom rushed into the room and tried to cheer Tony up but nothing was working. So mom gave it to the dry cleaners, and to my surprise they got it clean. 

So it was plan B time. 

I took his backpack and this time made a hole with scissors. But mom fixed it the next day.         

So I was worried. I was out of ideas. 

So plan C:

 I took the bag and cut it into two pieces.

Tony saw it and screamed. “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHYGGGGGGG... “MMMMMOMMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY …

“EEEEAAHHHHHHHHH  AAAAAAAHHHH …

“MMMOMMMYYYYY...” 

And mom came rushing into the room. Mom took it to the clothes shop to get it mended but they said that it is impossible. 

By now Mom had an idea of who did this. She shouted

“JACK!!!!!!” 

Mom screamed and I was grounded as usual. At least Tony’s bag is gone for good.  NOO!! mom bought Tony another one. Just like the bag I cut. 

I did that all for nothing!!!!! 

GGGGGRRRRRREEEEEEE…

I ran into my room and SLAM...!!! Closed my door. Actually [slammed]

“JJJAAAACCK!!!”  

You know who’s voice that is.
