The+Two+Old+Women’s+Bet

By: Mary Grace S. One day two old ladies from Central America, which is below the USA, met and started talking about men and their husbands and how they were so foolish and could believe the anything crazy thing you, told them. They talked about which one was more of a fool. One woman would talk then the next. Finally they made a bet. Each lady thought her husband was more foolish than the other. The women who could make her husband do the craziest thing would win. The first women thought //hey what if I make my husband believe he is dead. If I do this I will certainly win.// So that night when her husband came home she said “Oh, honey you look sick. You should get to bed”. Without thinking he went straight to bed. The next day when he woke up she said “I know you will die soon so don’t go to work and we will spend our time together here.” They talked but all she could think about was //I am surly going to win//. On the other hand the second woman had a more evil plan. Her husband came from work and she was weaving, a way to make clothing. “What are you making” he said. “Just the nicest clothes for you” she said back. “But there is nothing on the weaving wheel” he replied. “This is the best thread in the entire world; it is invisible until you put it on.” The lady “made” him a whole suit. On the day of the of the first woman’s husband’s funeral the other husband showed up wearing his new suit. No one said anything, not even a sound. Suddenly everybody started laughing. He didn’t know who they were laughing at until he looked down at his new suit. As soon as he looked down he noticed that all he had on was socks, shoes, a hat, and...his underwear.It was so funny even the dead man came up from his coffin and broke out laughing. That was the day the two men found out that not all you see and hear is true!

The two young ladie's bet by: Miriam Weathers

Once there were two girls, Jane and Anne who were waiting for there friends. They were talking about how their friends, Jonelle and Lexi, were really silly and funny. They would also talk about the silliest thing that each of the friends had done. One girl said" Once, my friend bumped into a girl in the cafeteria." The other one said once my friend decided to carry around twenty dollars in her pocket. Then when she went to the locker room she looked in her pocket and her twenty dollars wasn't there. Then she realizes that there is a big hole in her pants pocket." They both laughed at that. Then an idea popped into their heads. They both decided to make a bet to see who could embarrass their friend the most. So the Jane had a sleepover with her friend and the Anne had a sleepover with her friend. At the Jane's sleepover she told her friend that there was going to be a pool party for the whole grade the next day. The friend said that she hadn't heard of a pool party for the grade. The girl said that she would wear a pink swimsuit. So the friend fell for the trick and decided that she should wear her blue swimsuit. There was really supposed to be a school dance the next day. Meanwhile, at the other sleepover the Anne was telling her friend that in two days they were going to be having a day were you could wear all kinds of crazy colors instead of the normal school uniform. The friend fell for it and decided to wear a purple shirt with blue and pink stripes and a red sparkly hat. So as you can imagine the next two days were hilarious to the girls who were tricking their friends and very problematic to the girls who were being deceived. The next night at the dance the Jonelle showed up in a blue bathing suit and water wings on her arms. At the dance the girl was so embarrassed that she ran home and she started to cry. The next day at school, as you can imagine, Lexi showed up wearing her red sparkly hat, and her purple shirt with blue and pink stripes. Everyone laughed at her and she was given a detention for not following the dress code. As Lexi was sitting in detention, she could not believe that her friend tricked her. She was so angry that she decided to get back at Anne. Then she thought of it. She had her cell phone, called Jonelle, and once Lexi told Jonelle what happened, Jonelle told Lexi what Jane did to her. Anyway, Lexi explained her plan to Jonelle and Jonelle loved it. So, Lexi decides to call Anne and Jane and tell them that she and Jonelle were sick. So, "like good friends" they decided to bring them chicken soup. When Jane and Anne got there Lexi and Jonelle jumped out of bed and said "got you". Jane and anne then realized that their trick was very mean to do and they saw how it feels. They apologized to Lexi and Jonelle and they became friends again. The morale of the story is treat others like you would want to be treated.
