One day Skyler went to her friend Elija’s house to play. Elija didn't want to play outside with Skyler but his mum said, ¨Elija go and play with Skyler, it will be good¨. So Elija went to go and play with Skyler outside.
Elija took Skyler to the nearest forest, in his backyard. Skyler said, ¨Let's play hide and seek¨.
Elija wasn't too excited but then he remembered his mother had told him to play with Skyler. “You are counting Skyler¨, Elija yelled out. Skyler didn't want to count so they did rock, paper, scissors, to make it fair.
¨Rock Papers Scissors Shoot!¨ they both said but Elija lost the round. So he had to count behind a tree for one minute. Skyler found a huge tree and hid behind that so Elija wouldn't see her. But while she was hiding from Elija, Skyler saw a dog and started to scream. It started to chase her. She had a fear of dogs.
When Elija heard Skyler scream, Elija went to go find her. When he found her, Skyler hid behind Elija. Elija knew that the dog, Jordan, was mad at Skyler for screaming at him. Elija started to try and calm the dog down. His aunty has a dog, and he learnt how to calm them because his aunty’s dog used to be aggressive as well.
So Elija found one of his dirty small tennis balls that he had lost a month ago, and played catch with the dog. Then, Jordan led Elija to his owner. Skyler joined them but stayed behind Elija. They made it to a little cottage in the forest and met an old lady named Sophie. She offered Elija and Skyler some cookies. Of course, they said yes because they were very hungry from playing with the dog.
Sophie said, ¨thank-you and good job for getting my dog to calm down. He usually never likes strangers!”
