help me!!! I want to make a mystery story!!!! the first sentence of the story must be "a girl was walking home one day"​
FrozenT [24]

Explanation:

She was standing in the hallway. From where I was standing I could only see her hair. She had hair as black as coal with a stroke of pink on some of the middle strands. And then she turned. Her face was fair and her cheeks a little fluffy. But she was slim.

When I saw her, my heart skipped a beat or two. I had never laid my eyes on someone so beautiful. It was like a dream. I couldn't move. I couldn't blink. I just started at her angelic face.

What was just a few seconds felt like an eternity. It felt as if there were only the two of us and no one else. The crowd of people standing there seemed to disappear.

Suddenly she went forward and went ahead. I snapped back to reality. I ran towards her but soon she disappeared into the crowd

You can say that Anne frank matured because she got older learned to be more careful with the situation and she changed because she can finally see what was actually happening in the real world.

Her relationship with her mother changed because since she knew what was happening she respected and appreciated her moments which the family as well as her mother and she knew that she had to be grateful with her mom and what they did for me so her relation ship improved in a loving way.

Have you ever felt as if somebody just isn’t the same anymore either because of age or because of the knowledge on the real world well the same events happened to a young girl named Anne Frank

You loaned a DVD to Sarah. When she returns it, there are scratches all over it. Explain a good way to handle this situation.
Setler [38]

Answer:

Don't deny the DVD. Show Sarah the mistake she made, but tell it was an accident and it is fine. Then, rub it with toothpaste and then carefully rub it back off, followed by a good rinsing in cold water. The scratches should be removed then, but this method does not work all the time.

Hope this helps :)
