Bright Path
By: Leynie
There was a girl named Cammila she was born on January 6th 1986. She loved to write and read. She thought she wanted to do it her whole life. Nothing stopped her, but on thing her teachers. They were not very nice. They believed reading and writing was dumb and would never do any good in life. So whenever they caught her writing a book they would take it away. Then they ripped it up and threw it away. They never believed in her. One day Cammila told her mom. She sure wasn't happy. She talked to the teachers and ended up pulling her out. Her mom thought she needed some time. So she homeschooled her. She learned lots, but one thing wasn't the same. Cammila missed her two friends Jack and Brooke. They always were kind to her, and loved making books with her.
Jack loved writing. Brooke loved sketching and painting. Cammila liked to do both. It was hard for Cammila to get used to not seeing Brooke and Jack. Lydia her mom told her to make some new friends. Cammila was great at making friends. So she had made some that next day. There names were Bella and Dominick. They both went to the school at Jonathan's school of Reading and Religion. They said it was a great school. Soon her mom was hearing a lot about it. Lydia saw how much Bella and Dominick loved it. So she asked if Cammila thought she was ready to go to school again. She responded very excitedly "YES!!!" Lydia was glad to hear. So she sent her off to Jonathan's school of reading and Religion. Right when Cammila heard that was the school she was going to she ran straight to Bella's house, and told her the good news.
Bella was very happy. They were talking and laughing for a while. Then Bella said "hey lets write to Dominick and tell him the good news." Cammila picked up a piece of paper and wrote a long letter to him. A few days later he got it. He couldn't believe his eyes. Dominick wrote back to her with the jolliest attitude he ever had. Soon the summer had ended and school was about to start. Before the last day of summer had ended they wanted to do something fun. They thought, thought, and thought then suddenly Dominick shouted the best idea ever! How about we introduce you to all the people you might be going to school with! Cammila and Bella were happy to do it. Cammila was very exited to meet new people and make new friends. So they rode their bikes to a girl named Jenna's house, a boy named Rj's house, and to two other peoples houses. By the end of the day she had made so many friends, and had met so many people.
It had been a long day for Cammila and she needed sleep because tomorrow was her first day of school. She was to exited to go to bed, but because of her long day Cammila eventually fell asleep. Before Cammila new it, it was morning. She jumped out of bed and got ready. Soon the bus came. She hopped on and sat next to Bella. Dominick was on bus 73 they are on 75. When they arrived she jumped out of the bus, and ran up the stairs and into the building. She finally reached the classroom. Most of the kids there were kids she had met the day before. The teacher introduced herself to the class. Then she wrote her name on the board. Then she said it out loud"Mrs Bernau." Mrs Bernau told the class to call her Mrs.B. for short. Cammila loved Mrs.B. she always loved to see and red Cammila's books. Mrs.B. thought they were incredible. So one day Mrs.B. sent in to the news paper one of Cammila's short stories. The illustrator loved it. He published it in to the news paper. Later that week Cammila saw it, and was to exited to sleep. So she told Bella, and Dominick.
They threw her a SURPRISE party. Dominick put it together for her. Bella was in charge of all the invites. Of course she had to invite Mrs. B. A few days later the party was ready. Dominick was smart and got Jack and Brooke to come. It was perfect everything was ready. Well everything but Bella and Dominick. They ran to start getting ready. Cammila would be back in 15 minutes from shopping. A little while later she was here right when she walked in she saw Jack, Brooke, Bella, Dominick, and Mrs. B. There was big sign that said congratulations!!!! It was amazing. The party was really nice, but it had to come to and end. Everyone left but the 5 of them. Bella, Jack, Dominick, Brooke, and of course Cammila. Cammila thanked them and gave each of them a hug. Life sure was going great for Cammila. All was perfect. Until a few weeks later bad news struck her. Bella was moving, and Dominick was moving too.
She couldn't believe it. She thought she would never see them again. Anyway time had passed and Cammila had grown much older. She had become a much better author. She had graduated early from Jonathan's school of Reading and Religion early because she was very intelligent. Cammila even finished high school early. She was on to her 2nd year of college, and she was studying to be an author. She took a lot of classes with reading and english. She became so good at the subject English she was given the opportunity of a life time!!! That opportunity was she was allowed to go to other countries and teach kids the english writing. She excepted the opportunity and was sent off to Spain for her first class. Cammila has been doing this for years and years, and she has enjoyed it extremely. Cammila is about to catch a flight to Japan. Cammila is about to find love. That love is with a person who has been a friend that has been part of her past.
Once she was there she saw someone familiar. Can you guess who it was? It was Dominick. He was a traveler who was on his way to Japan too. The exact moment they saw each other they ran to say hi. It was very exiting for them. Ever cense then they have never separated. Eventually they decided to marry each other. Dominick traveled everywhere Cammila did. it was great. Later in life they were talking and decided that there family was a little small. So they decided to have a baby. Soon enough the baby was born. it was a baby girl that they named Cassidy,and her birthday was on Thanksgiving. It was November 28th 2003. The best day of Cammila and Dominick's life. They had a great family, but time was just going to fast, and Cassidy was growing older, Cammila was growing older, and Dominick was growing older, and later that year Cammila had died. It was only Cassidy and Dominick.
Dominick lived a much longer life with his daughter Cassidy, and they have their own story to tell. I hope you enjoyed the story of Cammila's BRIGHT PATH! That will soon be passed on to Cassidy, or even you!
