Once Upon a Christmas Tree - Chapter 5

What’s this?

What’s this I said to myself when I opened the front door that morning on my way to school? On my way out the door I found a box of puppies on the first step of the front porch and I told mom about them and she said we could keep them if we promised to take good care of them. We promised we would take good care of them and named them right away. There names were: Buttercup, Anastasia, Rosie, and little Joey. We all loved our new pets very much, but there were more than 4 puppies so we took the rest of the puppies to the pet shop where we where sure they would find a perfect family. We went home that afternoon and could not wait to see our puppies. We rushed through the door and went to the kitchen right away. And there they were so tiny in a giant bed. All of them where laying together and were fast asleep.
We were doing our homework and we heard a noise coming from the puppy’s basket. I went over to check on them and when I bent over to see them I said”Hey you guys, come over here. The puppies are awake now”. They all came running over to look at the puppies. They huddled around the basket and after I made sure everyone was here I went to bend down next to the basket I could not see a thing. While I was making sure everyone was here I had forgotten to ask if they could save a spot for me. Now I cold not see the puppies at all. I tried to ask people to move but no one would listen to me so I went to my room and sat there waiting for someone to come and get me. I waited longer and I was getting sleepy. I went to sleep and after I had slept for a while I woke up and got out of bed and went to the kitchen and no one was there and neither were the puppies. “Where is every one?” I asked myself. I searched the whole house, but I couldn’t find anyone. “Where have they gone,” I asked myself. “Where could they be?”
