The Best Worst Thanksgiving
It was Thanksgiving morning. This year the Li family was I raveling from their home in Virginia to Grandma and Grandpa Li’s house in Florida. Nine-year-old Zara Li had been excited about the trip. But she found out that their beloved dog, Tucker, had to stay at a doghouse. Tucker was her best friend in the entire world. On the way to Florida, she already missed it.
In the car seat next to her, Zara’s little sister, Piper, kicked her feet and sang the alphabet song. Suddenly, Piper reached over and grabbed the dog toy off Zara’s lap.
“Quit it, Piper!” Zara cried. She tried to pull it back, but Piper held on tight. All of a sudden, cloud of white stuffing flew in the air with a ripping sound. “You are such a baby!” she screamed, causing Piper to burst into tears.
“Zara,” Mom sighed, “Piper didn’t ruin Tucker’s toy on purpose. She’s only four years old. You’re the big sister, so be nice.”
Zara bit her lip and stared out of the window. She was always getting into trouble for not being nice enough to Piper. Her parents didn’t gel that Piper was wrong either. Sometimes Zara pretended that she didn’t have a sister at all. This was turning into the worst Thanksgiving ever.
The way to Grandma and Grandpa’s house was dark and stormy. Suddenly, Dad pulled the car over. “Uh-oh! It looks like we’re not going anywhere,” Mom announced, Zara saw a giant oak tree completely blocking the road.
“The wind must have knocked it down,” declared Dad.
“Grandma and Grandpa’s house is only two blocks away,” Mom replied. “We can walk the rest of the way. A little rain never hurt anyone.”
They all climbed out of the car. Wind and rain whipped Zara’s hair into her face. It was hard to keep her eyes open against the wind. “You’d better hold on to my hand, Piper,” Zara cautioned, but Piper didn’t respond. Zara looked behind her, but Piper wasn’t there. She wasn’t with Mom or Dad, either. “Mom! Dad! Where’s Piper?” Zara shouted in panic. “Piper! Piper!” everyone called. The wind seemed to blow their voices away. Then Zara heard a strange sound coming from the bushes nearby.
