Not very long ago, my daughter fell ill, but with my love and care, she could hold on, for weeks and weeks, til she was far to ill, she had to go to hospital,
i had waited for 2 months and they came to say, sorry, i was very sad from then on, and my husband blamed me for every thing, he left me, i just couldn't stand it, then i met someone else, John, he was called, he helped me every day to cope with my loss, then i left the place and secretely fell in love with another man, i loved him so much, but i couldn't just go to John and say, I DUMP YOU! he was the man that helped me, day after day! so i kept them both a secret.
The next day, i had stayed with my other husband, Kris, then John had phoned here and Kris answered, he talked while i sat on the with my yellow flowery dress, when he came off the phone he told me very slowly, that he knew about John_NO! please no, no,no,no! just forget about it, you, i want you more than John!... then he stared, i was talking about my little cousin, he was coming to see me,_ Um, forget about it..._No, tell me..._ i love you more than John... he walked out of the house th_... My husband had started crying about my book, then i started laughing my head off, he stared and then i stared... then we both started crying... then laughing, we got the hic-ups and started laughing, we went to bed and couldn't get to sleep because we couldn't stop.

Answer 1

Laura put the little ones down to sleep, with much hugging, water, potty, love you. Finally they were off to dreamland. She hurried to straighten the house, impossible to do with the three toddlers underfoot. Then she tied on her apron, got out the masa, and began the tortillas for tomorrow. As she stirred, kneaded and shaped the dough, she thought about how to tired she was, how different married life was from her girlish dreams of happy-ever-after. She wondered where the girl had gone, with the quick smile and the dancing feet. How her feet ached.

She heard the door open, felt a rush of sweet summer air. Grumpily she refused to turn, instead concentrating on the growing stack of tortillas. Strong arms encircled her waist, and lips whispered in her ear, Mamasita, el amor de mi corazón. Melting, she turned toward him. He began to sing softly and swept her into a dance, round and round. The children woke and came into the room, rubbing sleep from their eyes. Papa, they laughed, and were lifted up to join the dance. Laura smiled. Here was the girl she had been and always would be, and here was happy-ever-after.

Answer 2

Kylie and Kyle met on a street, when Kylie dropped her shopping bags. Kyle was about to cross the road but stopped to help Kylie pick up her bags. Not long after that, coincidently, they both moved into the same flat. They didn’t realize until one day when they met again. Soon, they said ‘Hi, how are you?’ every time they saw each other.

Soon, they became very good friends. One day they both went out for coffee, or preferably “a date”. Soon, they became too good friends, they moved into a rented flat together. They fell deeply in love. Together they managed everything. The rent, the cooking, everything. They went out every week for dinner or coffee or pictures or outings. They were going to even get engaged with their parents’ permission but before that could happen...

One day Kylie got a phone call and she had to leave town suddenly for a few months. Kyle and kylie were not too happy about this. Kyle even tried to go with her but found that it was too late to buy tickets and if he left his job then he would get sacked. He was forced to stay back and let Kylie go alone. ‘I’ll be back soon, honey. And then we can carry on our love life and get married and have children, ok? Don’t worry I’ll be back as soon as. I’ll try my very best to come back soon. Wonder why I need to go. I’ll keep in touch with you’, said Kylie. They both kissed goodbye sadly.

A few months later, Kylie came back. A knock on Kyle’s door. Kyle opened it. Kyle was happy to see Kylie come back. Kyle looked behind. They both hugged, though Kylie was hoping for a kiss. She got suspicious but did not say anything. A girl came from the kitchen, smiling at Kyle. ‘Oh, Kylie. I forgot to introduce you to Kelly. Kelly, this is Kylie. Remember I told you about her?’ said Kyle. ‘Oh yes.’ And Kylie, this is Kelly...’ started Kyle. He paused for a second... ‘My fiancé’, he finished. Kylie look shocked. She was shattered. She had so many dreams and now they were shattered. ‘Oh. Congrats’, said Kylie lightly. She ran downstairs, got a taxi to a hotel to live in temporary and booked a flight for as soon as possible to go back to her parents in America. Kyle ran after Kylie and caught up with her finally. Finally, finally he had blocked the taxi to go ahead. Kylie got out of the car. ‘What do you want? You have gotten engaged now. Go back! Go back to your fiancé why are you here with me? You’ve betrayed me. Why did you even do that? Anyway, you can be happy with your fiancé now because I am leaving in 2 weeks and am going back to my parents in America. Goodbye’, said Kylie angrily and sadly. ‘Wait! Wait!’

‘Ohh...’ Kylie believe in Kyle. She had full faith in him. She believe in all he told her about his parents forcing him to marry Kelly. He did not wish to marry Kelly, he liked Kylie. But his parents did not understand him and forced him. ‘Thank you for your trust, Kylie’, said Kyle

They ran off and flew to America. They escaped from Kyle’s parents and went to Kylie’s parents. With their permission, they got married. 2 years later, they had children and they lived happily every after!

THE END!

Sorry if its over 200 words (Which i think it is!) but i hope this will be counted

Answer 3

all the girls in 8th, 9th and 10th grade were jealous of courtney. many boys had asked her out before. mainly tom sawyer who all the girls like, but courtney just doesn't understand why. tom had asked courtney ot like 20 times! she doesn't really care about those boys. shes really annoyed of them. she likes brendan daniels, the hottest and coolest guy in school. she gets what she wants, a date wth brendan at the mall. she keeps getting freaky visions and stuff about her on a date with tom (euww yuck! gross!) and she doesnt understand why. she then has an imagination that brendan is tom and runs away. she completely ruins her date! she runs and runs and runs, until she gets tired out. she finds that she is in tom's house, but doesn't understand how. she asks tom's parents where tom is and they tell her he's at his friends' party. courtney was shocked. she didn't think he even has friends. she thinks he's a total nerd and a dumbo. she runs to the address tom's parents had given her. she pulls tom out and asks him out! she had no idea what she was saying. they go to a posh restaurant on saturday night, when brendan sees them together. he gets furious and never wants to speak to courtney again. soon, courtney falls in love too, with tom and gets big headed. she takes adventage of all the boys who like her and uses them. one day, courtney meets a guy on facebook. he wants to take her to australia. courtney agrees but jennifer  (her bff)doens't. they have an arguement and fall out and jennifer tells courtney that if she ever wants help then don't come to her. so, courtney goes to america with a guy. she soon gets dumped by the guy after she sees him with another girl. the same thing that she did to boys happened to her. she goes to jennifer for help and doesnt agree. then, courtney finds that it was actually the boys that she had gone out with and used them who were in disguise and they had their revenge. courtney is back to normal like she used to be. and does not use the boys anymore. many guys ask her out, but she picks to go out with tom. even though he's a dumb guy and nerd from the front, he's actually a very cool and hot guy in the inside. she finds that the girls like him because he's a billionare but courtney does not like him because of the money. she likes him for him. when the other girls understand that, they leave them alone and find other boys. and jennifer and brendan fall in love. brendan and courtney are still friends, but just friends :) THE END again, sorry if its over 200 words but i hope if it is, that it will still be counted :) THANK YOU

Answer 4

LOL guys this is my 3rd one! kay... btw the character who is saying the story is called maya

I waited and waited. I waited, for my crush to ask me out. We were in 10th grade already, and still he hadn't asked me out. I have had a crush on him since, like 3rd grade. Everytime he saw me, I felt like he was avoiding me deliberately. He always got my name wrong, said "whatever," bumped into me purposely. I sometimes felt maybe he does like me, but he's too shy to say it as well. But then I get a feeling and sort of a little shake and say, maybe it's just me. Why will a hot, handsome and good-looking guy like me? Why would he be shy of asking me, when i'm shy of asking him? Now we're like 21 and I have no idea where he is. I am heartbroken. I cry and cry and cry. My best friend kept giving me tissues! My eye-liner got smudged and stuff.

The next day, I see him back in college and I feel relieved. But it's been years and years since I've had a crush on him. There's no hope that he will ask me out now, if he hasn't in the past years. Every time I got a purpose I declined them because I knew Avan (my crush) will ask me out someday. He still avoids me. So I lose hope and I get another cute guy who was the second most handsome guy in the year for the homecoming dance.
Our Prom night was coming closer. I got sadder and sadder. I had no guy to go with, my hope with Avan had shattered already.
Now its Prom Night and still, I haven't got a guy for the dance. I have no idea who Avan is going with. I lie down on my bed, thinking and thinking.... until I fell asleep.
A phone call woke me up. It was Dani, my friend. I told her I wasn't going. She got sad, and hung up.
Soon I got a phone call. It was Beck the second cutest guy I went to the homecoming dance with. He asked me for the dance. I said 'yes', having no idea what I just said.
So I went to Prom Night, in his car. It was quite a good drive. I think we were getting closer! But I still liked Avan more.
We enter the big ballroom and there was no sign of Avan. I stand there ....
A phone calls and Beck's mood suddenly changes. "I'm so sorry... I, I gotta go, very urgently and immediately. I am very sorry, I wanted us to work out. I told him I can't but I have to. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow at college and maybe we can arrange another date, so sorry, again," he said. He left. I was left alone. I started crying, watching people with their dates.

"Hey, I thought we were one. Wanna dance?" I peer up to see Avan. I cheered up. So Prom Night turned from disaster to romance. We were one! We were one! He was sooo cute. It was just like our first date!

Ever since then, we've been going out.

The next day I go to college, to find that Avan wasn't there. I find out that Avan died in an accident last night. :( He got ran over by a big lorry, when he was on his bike :(
I go to the place it happened, where their were flowers everywhere. I started crying. I knelt down and kissed the spot where it happened. People started looking at me. I see a big lorry coming and a bike. I scream... I look up to see nothing, but people staring at me. It was just my imagination. I then see a big lorry. I was willing to commit sucide. If there was no longer Avan, then there was no longer me. I stood up. I see the lorry coming closer and closer every moment, and there it was. Just an inch away... and...
BANNNNNNGGGG!
My eyes were shut tight. I look up to see two women who dragged me away. "Why did you do that, dear? You dont want a horrible death like my son. I suppose you are from his college?"
I stood there, speechless. I said nothing. I wanted to say something, lots but my mouth froze. I was in shock.
The two women pat me. "Are you ok?"
"Yes, yes... No, sorry. Erm, sorry to hear about your son. Yes, yes.. I was erm.. his... I suppose his girlfriend. Did he tell you?"
"Oh yes yes..... " The women started crying. The other women took her away.

I was still in shock.

THe next day, Avan's mother came to my house. I ask her how she found out where I live? She says "I found a message from Avan's phone.."
"oh right"...
Avan's mother says that she was just going through Avan's things and she came to a letter. .. ..... "I thought you would like to have a look at this. I thought you should know that Avan...." She gave me a little note. I read it,,,it said...

Tommorow, 23/06/2010... Propose to Maya !! I am nervous, and I hope she accepts! I wish to get married with her...

I started to cry once I saw it. I went to Avan's house, when his mother took me, to see some of his stuff. And she let me keep some things as a memory and she kept most. We both got sadder and sadder as we saw more things.
The next thing, was the computer and his emails. He was already logged on so we checked an email. It was from Mason (Avan's friend) I read it and it said...

So you gonna propose to Maya? How exciting? You gonna marry!!! hehe you nervous? Maya's beauitful you stole her, man. I wanted to marry her LOL only joking! Man, you so lucky, I wish I had a girlfriend that beautiful! I start to cry, more and more...

Now it has been a year or so since Avan's death. I have gotten back together with Beck but I have still never forgotten Avan. I will always keep him in my heart. I have saved his email account, I changed the password. Only me and his mother know it. We keep it as a memory. I kept his little note forever and never lost it. I hope he is resting in peace

AVAN, I LOVED YOU, I STILL LOVE YOU AND WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU! i just wish you could have been alive till at least until you proposed to me. I always longed to hear you propose to me! :( But that can't happen now... :( I am so sad about it. But if your soul or spirit is out there, i love you still avan! and i want you to know that! xx

THE END! sorry its over 200 words, and sorry i did 3 but i just couldnt help it! lol!!! hope u like all of mine and no, its not true i made it all up! and maya is the character who is saying it and who loves avan and that...... thank you! x
