The Sticks

By Hiti Anand

Once upon a time, there was a family called ‘The Sticks’. It was a kind family but unpleasant. The reason to its unpleasant nature is that when parents give birth to a boy, it will curse them. But if they adopt one, their nature will be as pleasant as the sounds of the sea. One day Madame Gazelle, who was the only teacher in the stick family gave birth to a boy who was the cutest boy in the whole entire world! Madame Gazelle thought that she wouldn’t get cursed because who would curse a mom that has the cutest baby on the planet. But she cut her finger while chopping some vegies for the salad.

She thought that if I name him Annie, she wouldn’t get cursed because the one who cursed every body will think that this stick gave birth to a girl instead of a boy. But it was too late. she was sent to cursed room and told that she will get some questions to answer. The first question was “Why are you getting cursed? Madame Gazelle said “Well you are the one cursing everyone and because of you everyone does not have a happy nature. Because of you the town calls us the unpleasant natured sticks.” The imposter realized his mistake and never cursed anyone again.
