Zaid and the Waterfall

Once there was a boy named Zaid and his family. They had just come from Jordan a few weeks ago. Zaid was three years old. One day, they went to Erindale park and Zaid was wearing a yellow GoGo shirt. There was a pond nearby, so they went to get a sip of water. They went to the pond and in a blink of an eye, little Zaid fell into the water and the water was headed towards a huge waterfall. Then his parents screamed for help.

“Help!” exclaimed Zaid’s parents.

“Mum, help. I might die. The huge waterfall is coming. Aaaaa!” cried Zaid.  

“I am coming for you, Zaid!” said Zaid’s mother.

Then he immediately fell into the huge waterfall. He did not know how to swim, so he drowned in the water and he died. His parents called the police and fire truck and ambulance. They all dived in and searched for Zaid. There were many dead bodies. The police were shocked to look at all of the dead bodies and sent  backup. Well, they didn’t find Zaid until one police officer found Zaid’s body near a marsh and brought him to the surface. The paramedics said, “Unfortunately, he could not make it.” Zaid’s parents burst into tears and they buried him. Then after they had another baby, they named him Zaid. But the mom did not let the newborn replace the three-year-old Zaid. Whenever Zaid’s mom thought about Zaid, she would burst in tears and the dad just watched TV all day and did not help the mom. He would refuse to get a job. Then after the mom got sick of the dad not getting a job or helping her, they got a divorce. The dad got upset and tried to kill the baby and the mom knew the police would arrest him. The dad ignored the threat and wrote instructions on a piece of paper. He then bought three guns: a sniper, a pistol, and a minigun. He did it so that if the police tried to arrest him, he would fight back. That night, the mom came to the dad’s house and opened the window. She immediately called the police. The dad was fast asleep. The police came and arrested him the next morning.
