The City that Never Sleeps
Julie always wanted to go to New York, but
her family could never afford the expensive trip. She knew that constantly
asking her parents to take her would just make her sadder because she knew she
could never go. Julie had a job, but could never make enough. Her money was
always going to help pay the bills. Her parents only made enough money for the
family to get by, nothing extra. Julie’s dad recently got fired which put them
in an even more financial struggle. Soon
enough he found a new job and they gave him a cash bonus to help his family.
Julie’s family had enough money to actually spend on themselves for once. Julie
wasn’t expecting to get the long awaited New York trip though, maybe just a
pair of new shoes, but her parents had something else in mind. Her parents
decided to surprise her by putting 3 plane tickets to New York into a box. When
her parents called her down to the kitchen she was confused by the small box
sitting on the counter.
“Sit down.
We have a present for you.” They said while handing the box to her.
Julie opened
the box and screamed.
“Thank you
thank you thank you!” she said while hugging them.
Julie was
filled with happiness. She didn’t think this day would actually come. She
finally was able to visit the city, the Statue of Liberty, and so forth.
