"Ironies of life"





Katty was a girl as intelligent as any other child. But there was something that made her be different to the other children, she was special. She was special in a way that made her classmates ignore her. It wasn’t her fault, but it did hurt her the way people treated her. She was a black girl around only white people.
She came to America with her family when she was 2 years old, they came from South Africa, where life was very difficult. She soon learned English and went to school. The problem was that they were the only black family in town. Some people treated them badly and insult them just for being black.
One day, coming back from school she heard a noise from a street, she didn’t want to go, she was afraid. Then she heard that it was a kid screaming. She run as fast as she could. She found a little boy crying, but it wasn’t a normal boy either. When he noticed she was there to comfort him, he smiled. Katty asked him was his name was. He didn’t understand anything, he didn’t speak English.
Katty decided she had to do something to help the boy. At first, when they were both kids, it didn’t really matter how old he was. She decided to call him Josh. He was a very cute boy with blue eyes. His parents left him in the street because they couldn’t support him with food. Katty told her family about it and they decided to take care of the boy.
He grew up very quickly and soon he was taller than katty. She didn’t care about her classmates’ insults anymore. She had Josh to watch out for her. They were good friends. Katty discovered that Josh was more intelligent than any other young man in town. He wanted to become a doctor. He knew things without haven’t even read them. He worked hard to get the money and go to a city where he could study medicine. He wanted to help katty’s family, and he wanted to help katty the most.
He went to the nearest city and started working and study. Years passed, and he wrote Katty a letter every day to let her know how things were doing. They started to feel different about each other and decided to talk about it. She went to the city where he was living. He was waiting for her holding a beautiful red rose in his hand. They talked for about 2 hours and then he told her that he loved her. He told her that she was the reason why he wanted to become a better person. She never felt as happy as that day. They decided to get married, they didn’t care about the society or what people would say.
He became a very famous doctor, they had their first child and called her Katherine. She never thought that finding that little boy in that street would have changed her life in so many ways.
They were happy ever after.

The end
