PAGE 2: THE PARAGRAPH
THE HAPPIEST DAY OF MY LIFE
The happiest day of my life was when I found my cat Misa five years ago. We had
just moved to an enormous city because of my fathers job. I had to leave all my friends,
so I was feeling thoroughly upset. Everyday I cried and begged my parents to go back to
our old town, but they did not seem to care. One day I was sitting in our garden and trying
to play with stones on my own. Suddenly, I heard something like a cry, so I looked around
to find out what was going on. Then, I saw a cute tiny kitten under a tree. She didnt have
a mother and she was hungry. I took her into our house and gave her some milk. After she
had drunk some milk, she fell asleep in my arms. After that day, I began to look after her,
and she was always with me. Now we are inseparable. I am so thankful for finding such a
good friend that day.
