The Taling Goldfish

After a tiring day at school I headed home. I had so much homework to do. On my way I saw a pet shop and smiled. I decided to go in for a toy for my cat. I walked past the adorable rabbits. Then I saw it. It was exotic looking fish with golden scales and red fins. I just had to get it. There was a girl standing beside me and she told me 'It's a gorgeous fish isn't it?' I walked out thinking of ways to persuade my parents to let me get him. I was so distracted that I forgot about the toy for Felix.

When I got home my mother took one look at me and asked 'What do you want now?' My mother is amazing. She always knows what I'm thinking. 'Well I was thinking about having another pet.' I said nervously 'What's wrong with Felix?' she asked me. 'Nothing but I was in the pet shop and I saw a really cool fish.' I told her. 'If you can be responsible for two pets you can.' She explained. 'Thank you so much!' I squealed. Little did I know this was a very bad idea.

The next day after school I went to the pet shop. I looked in the fish tank but the fish wasn't there. I went up to the counter and the girl I talked to yesterday was there. I asked her 'excuse me but have you any more of those fish that we were looking at yesterday.' 'We have only one left.' she smiled. 'I would like to buy it please.' I replied. She gave me a bowl and food first and then the fish. I stared at it. It was really cool. I paid for them and headed home.

As soon as I got in the front door my dad called out for me. I put the stuff on the table for a minute. I went to my dad and helped him with the boxes he was carrying. As soon I was finished I ran back to the fish. I filled the bowl with water and tipped the fish in. Felix climbed onto the counter and was looking at the fish hungrily. I noticed this so I pushed Felix off the counter. I swear I heard someone saying thank god. I ignored that and headed to my room.

After supper I gave the fish some food. He gulped it down greedily. Felix's eyes
