With long sentences:
Walking around the fair with my mommy behind me, something was bothering her, but I had no clue as to what. There were rides surrounding me. I had never been too a fair or any kind of carnival before, I was always to little. “Ferris Wheel, lets go on, now!” I cry, this would be the best moment of my life, I had heard a lot about them but never had I gone on one before. Excited, I pulled my mothers arm to get on. Daddy had always wanted to go to carnivals with me, but Mommy said no. Now that I was old enough, I could go, but Daddy wasn’t there. Daddy couldn’t stay at our house anymore. I didn’t understand. We got on the Ferris Wheel and as soon as we got to the top, we were stuck. Then spinning down again, letting more and more people on. I wanted to get back on but Mommy wouldn’t let me, we stayed to watch the wheel go around one more time. Mommy starts to walk off, but I see someone, I see Daddy. I want to go see him. Mommy doesn’t understand, so she keeps on walking. I start to cry, salty oceans pour out of my eyes. Mommy won’t come. I lose strength and can’t go on. Mommy wins our tug-of-war match with her arm. Daddy walks in to the crowd, and I lose sight of him, but I see a bad man, and I want to warn Daddy. I am too late, I hear a gunshot. Daddy falls over and I tell Mommy again, but again, she doesn’t listen. I try to run to Daddy, but Mommy catches my shoulder, my eyes are spilling over with tears, and I shake off her arm and run into the crowd.
