Walking down the street I had never thought the world could be this bright. Being selected by my Dad to go on a special trip made me feel like a medieval knight. It felt like an adventure unlike any other. Hear the roar of the chariot my dad calls a car as it barrels down the street the power at his fingertips. I feel so jealous; his control of the wheel that could guide me anywhere. I continue the journey down the road the radio babbling on about some A12 or something but I’m too focused on the giant monuments outside to pay attention. It’s amazing the different size of each building with a variation between huge and huger.
I break from the reality that I concocted for myself turning left to see the face of my brother. He seems sad and unhappy. I stare at him for a while with a smile so large on my face it would have to be surgically removed off my face to stop me smiling. We finally arrive at the destination I look to a sign and it reads Ye Olde Kent Road. I am astounded amazed as the magical gates open at my presence it’s beyond compare. We enter the store with the first thing I grab being the shopping trolley. I get to steer the trolley rolling down the aisle with ease and such speed.
My dad grabbed me by the arm. I expected a slap across my face but received one pound instead. Astounded, speechless, surprised I don’t know what to say what to think. This much money for me. This has turned out to be the best day ever. I race down to the toy section and see a Ben 10 Omnitrix I have only seen a couple episodes but it’s so cool the powers and abilities, but something flickers in the corner of my eyes, I see it the 10th doctor’s screwdriver with psychic paper the options are tearing me apart racking my brain of the different choices, weighing up the advantages . In the end their is only true choice, one option, the screwdriver. This has been an adventure returning home with the spoils of my victory I rejoice and relish in the fact that I came out on top. That was the best day ever.
This is the worst day ever. Dragged away from my laptop to go on a shopping trip that they could easily have gone to on their own I end up being placed in the car. The face of sadness my brother had all those years ago I finally realize why it there in the first place. I remember all of the things I used to enjoy as a child the way I lit up when I was asked to do something as a boy and yet the world seems several shades darker. I drive down to ASDA through Old Kent road. I couldn’t be less bothered about what’s going on and how it’s nothing I currently care about. I turn and see two eyes, a nose, and a smile it’s my cousin. His freakish smile sends chills down my back as I try to ignore everyone and everything until we arrive.
We arrived at the shop with the automatic doors opening as we entered I wished this would be over as quickly as possible. then My father called me and handed me one pound, my cousin was ecstatic I on the other hand wasn’t feeling as cheerful. I started to roam around the store seeing things moved around from where they usually used to be and how different this entire place is from what it was. I walk into the toy section and see the new version of the Omnitrix I can’t believe this things been going on for so long, my dad offers to buy me a new toy but I declined feeling it’s to childish for someone like me. We end the trip feeling no more happier than what I was before.
