Short stories

I decided to write a short story today since I ran out of ideas! Hope you enjoy it. (remember to give me more story ideas afterwards.)

Once there was a girl called Susan. She had always liked to listen to music.She especially liked listening to it when it was heard throughout the house. Any kind of music was fine with her, in fact, when she didn't listen to music for at least a week, she got very ill. This was often the case, because she lived with parents who didn't like music at all. When she went to school she always heard background music. Like during announcements, or someone walking past whistling, or humming, or playing music on their devices. Whenever she got sick she had no idea why it happened... until one fateful day. She was lying in bed with a fever again when someone next door played music very loudly in their room. Before she (or her mother) knew what was happening she was up and about dancing around her room on tippy toes. When  
the song ended she wondered why she didn't feel sick anymore. So she concluded that music was her cure. But her parents never allowed her to listen to music. Ever. So she came up with a plan (In that sense children are really deviously clever!). She saved every penny she got, she did jobs around the house until she had enough. And then. She asked her parents if she could get some headphones, to listen to music. At first they refused, but when she offered to pay for it they agreed. So the next day they went shopping. Then she put her plan into action. For a whole week she was never seen without her headphones bobbing her head to the beat, or tap dancing down the street. But when her parents tried to talk to her she pretended to be deaf. They had to shout to be heard! So one day when it was obvious that her parents had had enough. She wrote them a note saying:
Dear mom and dad: I noticed that you have to shout to communicate with me now. I have an idea that it might be the headphones causing it. Maybe if you let me play music aloud in the house it will stop. Signed. Susan.
 Her parents who both had sore voices from shouting to be heard all the time, agreed. Then her hearing was miraculously back in working order. From then on she always played music when she got home. After a while her parents loved music just as much as Susan! And they listened to music happily ever after. THE END.



Whew! OK. Well it's not exactly a very long or complicated story but at least I can post in my blog again! Hopefully next time I have a better idea of what to post. LOL Noisy Nadia
