Ellas And The Magic Flying Carpet.
Orientation
Its a great sunny day for a play, clouds moving round and round as they go.As I woke up I see strange things around me,  birthday baloons, birthday hats and it reminded me of something
“Yea that’s right it’s my 16th birthday today.”  I said to myself
I stood up moving my body round and round  and I see my dad walking to me.
As my dad  walking  straight to me I see a strange thing that he is garing.
“Happy birthday dear.” He said
My dad always get’s me boring stuff.Last year he got me a teddy bear and the before that and the year before that but this year it’s gonna be better.He promised me that he will get me something way better than before, I thought it was gonna a barbie doll but even better it was a magic flying carpet.
“Thank you dad, it’s the best present I ever received.”I said ,smiling at him
“ Its alright dear nothing is better than my daughter.” he replied.


Problem
Later that day my dad said that I could go for a ride on it with my teddy bears for a good ten minutes.I sat on the magic flying carpet and nothing happened.A minute later I have been sitting there  for ages.
“Dad nothing is happening!” I yelled
“You have to talk to it, say a word to it.”he replied
“Up up.”I said
And we are on our way.
“This is the best day of my life.”I said
As we are on the way I just remembered that I can only go for a ride for ten minutes but it was already past ten it’s been forty five minutes.I told the magic flying carpet to take us home.The time struck 6 and the I just knew that the flying carpet was taking us to the wrong way.Ten minutes later the flying went slow and it started to go down.Today is half nice half terrible day.We landed on the ground and we started walking to the other way round.

Solution
It been  twenty minutes taking us to walk home but soon as we got safe and sound everything was alright.The  magic flying carpet turned out to to the worse present I got.
