TWS Column | The Tree and Water

Once upon a time, there was a tree that lived by water. The trees name was Oak and the waters name was Charles. Every day at sunrise and sunset Oak and Charles would watch the clouds float by and name what they looked like.

One summer morning when Oak woke up he realized that the sky was a different color. The color of the sky was a dark orange and red but he also realized that Charles was running more rough then originally. Oak called out to Charles " is everything alright with you Charles?" There was no reply. When Oak looked back up from Charles he then realized that something was dark smokey clouds. Oak didn't understand what was going on. Until he sees this thick red-orangish liquid coming towards Charles and him. Oak started to scream to Charles "what is that? Are we going to die!?"

Finally, Charles decides to tell Oak "everything is going to be okay, trust me." Right after he said that he did the unexpected. Charles made himself become rougher and splashed the liquid. A while bit later they realized it was working, so Charles made a huge splash and wiped out the liquid to cool the rest. Oak told Charles "thanks for saving me pal!"

At sunset Oak and Charles looked at the sky enjoying the bright colors while naming what the clouds looked like. When the big bright sun was gone and the stars appeared Oak and Charles said goodnight to each other then finally drifting to sleep they told the dark yet bright-starred sky "we will see you in the morning." Then they were off to a peaceful sleep.
