The Cookie Jar

Chapter 1: The Cookie Jar

I was walking through the kitchen when I suddenly stopped. Sitting on the counter was a jar filled with cookies. My stomach growled, as my face turned into hunger. I slowly walked toward it, my mouth already watering. Just as I reached out— “JASMIN!” Mum shouted. I jumped and quickly turned around. She stood there, staring at me with anger in her eyes. Before she could say anything else, I grabbed the jar and ran as fast as I could. My heart pounded as I rushed down the hallway. After a few seconds, I stopped and turned around. No one was there. Not even Mum. Everything was quiet. I let out a breath and slowly walked away, disappearing into the shadows.

Chapter 2: Things Changed Slowly

I kept walking, heading down the alley as the sky grew darker. It felt like night was coming too fast. I hurried back home. When I got inside, I quickly shut the door behind me and locked it. The house felt strangely quiet. I went to the living room and lay down on the soft, warm couch. I must have fallen asleep. Hours later, I woke up and checked my phone. 10:30 p.m. I rubbed my eyes, still tired. Then something hit me. The cookie jar. I ran to the kitchen. It was gone. I checked the living room. Nothing. I checked every room in the house. Still nothing. Everywhere I looked… there was nothing.

Chapter 3: The Missing Jar

The next morning, I woke up with a strange feeling in my chest. Something wasn’t right. I went back to the kitchen, hoping the jar would magically reappear. But it didn’t. Instead, I noticed something new. Crumbs. Small cookie crumbs were scattered across the floor, leading out of the kitchen. I followed them slowly. They led down the hallway… then stopped at my bedroom door. My hand shook as I reached for the handle. I opened it. Everything looked normal. Too normal. I stepped inside and looked around carefully. Then I saw it. On my desk. The cookie jar. But this time… It wasn’t full. It was completely empty.

Chapter 4: Something Isn’t Right

I stared at the empty jar, my heart racing. I knew I didn’t eat all those cookies. So who did? Suddenly, I heard a soft noise behind me. A small crunch. Like someone stepping on crumbs. I slowly turned around. No one was there. But the door… was now closed. I was sure I left it open. My breathing got faster. Then— Another crunch. This time, it came from inside my room. I backed away from the jar. “Hello?” I whispered. No answer. But something moved. Not clearly… just a shadow. And then I realised— I wasn’t alone.

My brother birthday

This school holiday it was my brothers birthday and this is my Recount

 

 

 

On the night of the 3rd of April  we got ready to go to bed early because the next day we had a lot going on. When we woke up at 4.00 am to make food for our prayer I had nothing to do  and then I realised that I have to shower.

After my shower I got ready. When I went to put my towel away I saw a package at the door so then picked it up and went to show my mum. My mum said that it was the decoration  for my brothers birthday.Ok I said 

 

Everyone is here now and the prayer is about to start. When the prayer started we all sat down and then….  My brother started crying so then I had to go and get him ready (that is the hardest part because he does not listen to me and starts to run around ). After I got him ready and took him to the kitchen  to eat breakfast (which most of the time is weet bix and milk) I also ask him If he wanted  to eat weet bix and he said yes  did i mention that his name is Aviyansh and today he is turning three years old after the prayer ended we moved all our furniture to my nayderis house (which is just  my cousin house)

 

Now it is time for the afternoon prayer and everyone is here is now we can start the afternoon prayer and most exciting part is that is that it is my BROTHERS BIRTHDAY !  we are all happy but my brother is the happiest from us all

On the holidays I went to Tauranga for my uncles Mona and little cousin’s cruise  birthday. After a 3 hour drive we finnaly got to my aunty Barbara’s house. My favorite cousins were already there so we started playing some tag spotlight and other games. After playing for 30 minutes we went inside to go eat dinner. For dinner we had pizza hut, kfc and fish, and chips.
Then afterwards we had to go home because it was 11pm. So we went to our hotel for the night. When it was morning we got ready for the day. So first we wanted to try their pies. Their pies were so yummy. The pastry was nice even though the wrapper was good. Later on we found a lost phone and wallet. We were trying to find the adress but it said they lived in turkey so we just left it there. Then we went to our aunty Barbara’s house. after we went to this restaurant for lunch. They had a giant park hot chips chicken butter chicken sushi and other yummy foods.

My Poem about the Fijian culture

 

Beneath the sun’s warm golden hand. The ocean sings to the waiting land. Where palm trees lean in soft island breeze. And stories drift through banyan trees. Vanua lives on earth and soul. In every wave in every roll of drums that echo through the night Where fire and dance and hearts unite. Kava shared in a circle wide. Voices are low with ancient pride. Each name, each clan, each woven thread. Connects the living to the dead. Mountains rise in emerald grace. Rivers carve their sacred place. And laughter rings through village air. A simple life but rich with care. Fiji where the spirits stay. In wind, in reef at the break of the day Your people carry time along.
