The Simpson Monologue
A breeze fluttered through the cool and crisp night as my sisters group of friends were about to play manhunt, a favorite game of theirs. They had heard stories of how the trees would move in the night, but of course, it seemed so unrealistic, who would believe that? They had been busy with their activities for the past few days and were anxious to join their friends again, much too excited to believe some tall tale. This night Charlene, Andie, Everly, Rebel, and Lauren were going to meet at the Simpsonwood trails at 10:00pm. Their ages hovered around age 13. Andie and Rebel were possibly going to arrive late due to their sports, running and karate, going late that night. Lauren’s older sister, me, was being paid to watch them. The girls had …show more content…
We just need work together and perform to the best of our abilities and whatever happens, happens,” Lauren realized.
“I knew we shouldn’t of done this,” Andie communicated.
“Try me trees,” Rebel said with a maniacal but very threatening stare. The girls could not tell if the stare scared the greenery around them, but for now it held them off. Rebel dashed toward the trees in a suicidal way. Unfortunately, the moment before she pulled out her nunchucks, a vine pulled and entangled itself around her waist.

“Ok, looks like Andie and Rebel are out so it’s up to us to fight these trees!” Everly noted.
“I can still...” Rebel’s voice faltered as she collapsed to the floor and grunted in pain. In the woods on the trails there lived restless trees. These weren’t friendly, helpful trees with very good intentions, nor yet unwavering, calming trees that could make your day: they were uneasy, attacking trees, and that means trouble. It was 12:00, and Sasha, their older sister was nowhere to be seen, although Lauren knew she would be worried. The girls were helpless, surrounded, and alone in the

    The year was 1953. It was a cool, crisp twenty-ninth of October. Usually, after their chores and homework were done, Kathy, 8, and her brother Jonathan, 15, along with their friend May, 11, and her cousin Adam, 13, all went to Joe’s Arcade, the local hangout of Leaport, North Carolina. Instead, they all decided to meet at the end of their dead end street, Farrow Avenue, and go for a walk through the woods. They were all bored since the arcade was too crowded and supper wasn’t ready yet. Their town was a small town, so there wasn’t any other places to go besides the woods. Plus, the old, burned O’Leary house was out there.…

    The air brisk, leaves swaying in the calm wind. The sound of rustling leaves soothed the moment accompanied by birds overhead. But the overcast day was soon disrupted by a distant snap of a twig.

    Another factor that contributes to her accruing discomfort is her unclear plan for her future. She is pressured on all sides to become certain things, and all the ideas float around in her head forming a tree-like diagram: each limb representing a different path her life could take. “One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet… and beyond and above these figs were many more figs I couldn 't quite make out. I saw myself sitting in the crotch of this fig tree, starving to death, just because I couldn 't make up my mind which of the figs I would choose. I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet.” (Plath 77)…
