Memories~

Tears of joy welled up in my eyes as I looked at the book on my hand. the sound of the reporters in the Great Hall of Sunway Hotel awaked me from my long and sweet dream. the reporters there were anxious to know the reason I produced a book which I named it as Memories. Yes, it is a book which are full with memories. memories of four best friends.

Now, I am ready to answer the reporter's questions. i looked at them with my sparkling eyes and told them a story behind it which lead me to write this book.

Once, there were four girls who came from different background of family. Skyla, she was a beautiful girl who always smiled and thought of guys. For her, guys are the place she sake for a natural feeling that everyone would experience it, at least once, which is love. Sasha, she was a girl full with smile. she was a very cute girl and everuone liked her and she was very famous among the guys. next, Kate. Hmm... Kate, she was a girl full with imagination, full with words. she liked to read and write. she also liked to adapt and adopt. Now, it's Veralynn's turn. Veralynn was the cleverest girl in every school that she went to. her world will always be the books and also medic. she wanted to be a successful doctor.

These four girls with different personalities met at the same university, which are University of Cambridge in London. they were placed in the same quarters. after some time, they turned up to be best friends and they were always together no matter where they were. in class, at the corridor, in the room, in the library but not in the bathroom of course! They treated each other like real sisters. One day, Kate decided to write a story about themselves, about their friendship, the memories of the four of them. Everyone agree with Kate's idea. So, Kate started to write the story and hoped that one day this story will be compiled as a book one day. The book's title were not set yet. The story that she wrote was based on what had happened to them and each of them on their daily lives.

One fine evening, when Kate was out with Veralynn, Sasha got a call from Veralynn. Veralynn sound so bad. Her sound seemed like she was terrified and sad. Sasha tried her best to calm her best friend. Then, Sasha got to know that Kate was caught in an accident when she was about to cross the road at the shopping mall. Kate was now at the Cambridge Hospital. Sasha and Skyla rushed to the hospital but they were too late. Kate was gone, gone forever and ever. Sasha was shocked and she kneeled down with her thrembling tears on her face. Kate was Sasha's closest friend after all and she called and took Kate as her own sister.

The funeral was held on the day itself. Kate was not lucky, she did not have any relatives, she was an orphan. After the loss, Sasha, Skyla and Veralynn had to continue their life without their best friend.

One winter evening, while Sasha was cleaning the bed left by Kate, she found a box with a key on it under the big pillow. she was curious and she opened it using the key that were placed on the box. she found a package in it. She opened the package and saw stack of papers with writing on it. she read, and she realized that the stack of papers were the story that Kate wrote. the story about the friendship of four girls. Tears running out from Sasha's eyes, and her tears stopped as soon as she saw a picture of the four of them during the last christmas. suddenly, Sasha's tears fells once again when her memory brought her back to the celebration for christmas last year.

Sasha immediately put the things into the box as it was and closed it tight. she put it back under the big pillow. she told what she found that day to Veralynn and Skyla. their tears rolling down from their eyes. they wanted to burn it so that Kate would get back her things there but Sasha insisted not to let them burn it. she made a decision to continue the story that her sister, Kate had started and fulfilled her sister's wish.

Sasha knew that she was not good in writing. so, she studied hard, attended language classes and also extra classes just to make sure that her sister's wish would come true. after years of studying, she finally became the top student of English Language and she was the President of the Writing Society in the same university, which was University of Cambridge, London.

Now, Sasha was working hard to finish the book that her sister had started. every day, every month and every year, the stack of papers became thicker and thicker until one day, one last paper was placed onto the stack of papers and it was the end of the story. the end of the tears. although kate was no longer accompanying Sasha and the other two of them, Skyla and Verlynn, but the three of them were always with her, their heart were always with her.

"So, it means that Sasha is you Miss Christine?"
a question asked by the reporter waked me up from my long memory. i nodded with a smile and they understood. that time, i prayed to god and hoped that this book which was full with sweet and bitter memories would always be the people's companion so that my sister would be alive in each of the reader's heart and soul.

this is the story that i wrote for my trial exam....
it's not as interesting or as good as other's people essay....

ideas are great, but careful with TENSES and COMMON SPELLING.
