Hello my name is Jessica I'm going to be right in the story today about orphan little girl and a old lady and a woman who went off to war.

Once upon a time there was a orphanage girl who live with an ole lady she took her in when her mother went to war, she fed her, her mother taught her how to take a bathe before she went to war.she clothed her the old lady did. And watched over her as she slept one day a little girl took out her cat that was the last thing she had to remember her mother with that was the Christmas gift she got from her mother before she went off to war. SHe bathe the cat ,she fed the cat, play with the cat. SHe took care of that cat as if she did herself. One day she took the cat out to play outside she let the cat walk along beside her they went off into the woods they ran back to the field then as she ran she had realized the cat had wandered off .it was lost in the woods of on the streets she had not know where it went. She said I'm to herself what have I done how could I be so irresponsible. She called out once come back to me cat and you'd only thing that I have to remember my mother ,with please come back. No meow no white fur in sight. Orphanage girl looked around she looked behind her,she looked in front of her still no cat in sight,look behind the trees she looked on the side of the trees. She looked through the tall grass no cat in sight. Boohoo whine as tears began to drag her head tear fell from her eyes drenched wet she sat on a log and began to weep, motors racing down the street no cat insight. She say upon ourselves I search here I searched there I see you nowhere. She thought to herself it's almost dinnertime the food's going to get cold Miss Marty say be home before dark ,where could have you went kitten could have not went that far. She thought to herself maybe I put food down and started trail leading back to the house hopefully he find his way back cuz I have to get back home now I hate to leave my cat out here alone.she began to break the little treats out she had in her pocket and place them on the ground hopefully this Darn cat find its way back. She begins to weep again boo hoo boo hoo where are you where could have you went. Mother is going to have a Missy fit when she get back from the war and find out I lost this cat I have to search for you here and there I don't know where you may have went.as she turns around and start walking back to the house because she has to make it back for dinner. She haven't heard no meow out there ,no nothing. And she turns and set foot back to the house she gets about three or four inch away from the treats here come the little kid in with his wife first printing smelling for food. Gobble one snack gobble to snacks the little girl is still walking down the street with tears drenching her face cars racing down the street ,the cat looking left to right she turns around and she noticed some of the snacks are missing she said oh no who ate that what ! Musta been a scavenger... ain't that and that could have not been my kitten maybe a squirrel got a hold to the snacks. I set aside for my cat then she noticed something white was walking down the street towards her a little bit closer oh my God oh my goodness what my kitten my cat ther you go the Little orphan girl called out. She got home before dinner got cold and she found her cat the end.
