"Write about something you desperately wanted when you were a kid."
Have you ever wanted a toy back when you were a kid that you'd do anything just to get it? But then your parents never bought it for you because they just don't want to. They keep telling us the same old excuses over and over again. Something like, "you're just wasting money", "you're just gonna break it again." (Even though you haven't broke a single thing for over 3 months already), "you're just wasting your time!", "That toy is just a waste of time and money!". It's annoying how they come up with a lot of excuses just so that they won't be buying that toy you wanted the most anymore. Then a couple of minutes later, they're buying you clothes that makes you look like a clown who's questioning himself as to why he even took the job as an entertainer for kids who would just make fun of him. That actually happened to me. But I'm not gonna show you guys what they bought me. No freaking way.
Sad clown is sad
It started like this. It happened on a Sunday. I was still their only loving, handsome, charming, child. We went to church first to hear the word of the Lord. Everything was still going well at this time. After church, I asked my parents to buy me popcorn. Their was always a popcorn stand beside the church and every after mass, I'd always ask them to buy me one, and they did. After the popcorn galore, we went to the mall for our weekly mall day. Which was always during Sunday every after church. Since the mass ends at around eleven o' clock in the morning we went to the mall for lunch. After eating lunch, we went around the mall, window shopping. Some say window shopping is fun. But to me its just stupid. I mean, seriously? You just go around the mall staring at products and actually doing nothing to them. There's not even a single thought of even buying them. Just pure stare, stare, stare, stare, and stare at it some more. It would have been better if we we're actually canvasing. But no.... we just stare, and do nothing with it. Anyway, moving on to my story. As we were going around the mall, we passed by the toy shop, and damn it felt like I was in paradise. All the toys you want. Robot toys, racing cars, video games, all sorts of fun addictive contraptions made by companies to feed our entertainment needs. In the midst of all the toys and gadgets I saw, one thing caught my attention. The toy that I've always been looking for. The toy that all of my friends had, ZOIDS! The only toy that I wanted back when I was I kid. I'd do anything just to get me one of those. Especially the Blade Liger Zero Mk.II.
Just look at that beast! It's freaking Badass and FEROCIOUS!!!!
I tried asking my parents to buy me one. I tried telling them that I'd do anything for them. I'd clean the house for a whole year. I'll clean the car free of charge. I'll clean the plates every evening. But none of those was enough to get them to say "YES". There mind was set to say just one word. One word that would end the whole conversation. One word that would break my heart into tiny pieces. One word that would turn my whole world upside down. Just one word, "NO"! Everything suddenly went dark. My mind was ready to do its duty. The last thing that its programmed to do. CRY!
I cried like a "wittle" boy
Unfortunately, crying didn't help. I guess I can't do much anymore since their mind is already set to "NO". I gave up after that. There's no point in crying no more if all they're gonna say is "NO". It sucks. I didn't get what I wanted, I cried like a "wittle" boy, and I wasted my time trying to convince my parents to buy me that toy. Until now, I never got one. *Runs away crying......again.*
