“The Surroundings of the Twins”

(by: Leadean Jay A. Capacio)

Gino and Remy are twins. They love

playing with each other’s toys. They only
preferred to stay inside the house and hated
going out to play with other kids because they
don't want to be exposed under the heat of the
sun and feel sweaty. One day, Gino and Remy
are playing with their new remote-control car
bought by their parents. Since it is a new toy, they
still do not know how to operate it. Upon clicking
the remote, the toy car accidentally went
outside, and they followed its way and searched
on it. While they are in the middle of searching,
they have noticed that they are already
exposed under the heat of the sun and felt the
presence of sweat all over their bodies, but
because they haven't seen their toy car yet, they
pursue to look for it. After 10 minutes, they finally saw their toy car and decided
to go home. While they are on their way home, they felt the fresh breeze of
air. As they look around, they saw unusual but beautiful sceneries. On their left,
hey saw tall trees with green leaves, and on their right, they saw high
mountains. On their back, they saw their neighbors happily playing outdoor
games, and in front, they saw a lovely butterfly. And when they looked above,
they saw the calm clouds and the shiny sun. They were amazed about what
they saw and admired all of it. When they reach their home, they tell their
parents about what happened. As they were taking their supper, Gino and
Remy asked permission to play outside the next day, and their parents gladly
said yes.
