There once lived a 6 year old girl name Lea. Lea was a beautiful girl with long brown curly hair. Lea was a 2nd grader. She lived with her mother named Patricia, and her 2 sisters; Tina who was 13 years old, and Jamie who was 18.
One day Lea went to school. When Lea arrived at school, she went to her class where Mrs. Knox teaches math. When Lea arrived to her class, she met up with her friends Destinine, Jessica, Michelle, Timmy, Cameron, and James. Lea was that girl with lots of helpful, caring and friendly friends. Math class was hard but fun that day.
After math, Lea arrived at her second period class where Ms. Davis teaches music. Music was one of her favorite classes.
By the time Lea arrived to her reading class where Ms. Strickland was the teacher, she soon realized she was hungry; she didn’t think she could wait for lunch. In the class they learned about compound words.
Soon thereafter, Lea realized it was LUNCHTIME!! She wondered what was on today’s menu.
Lea was very hungry, she hope for fried
Chicken wings, back eye peas and chocolate milk. She was right; she sat down and ate her lunch by her Best Friends Vanessa and Zac, Destiny, and Tillman.
When lunch was over, Lea and her best friends all met up for Art class where Mrs. Harp teaches. In the class, Lea and her classmates was told to draw a picture of them.
When school was just about to let out, Mrs. Seals (The Principal) was saying, “Don’t Forget tomorrow is PINK and White day”. The girls would wear pink and the boys would wear white. This happened every Friday.
After school was over, Lea was riding the bus
home thinking about the color pink. Is it even a real color, and how did the color come about she wonder? When she arrived at home she had ask her mom what is pink and is it a real color. Her older sister (Jamie) said yeah duh!!!! Look who finally crack for once. Her other sister (Tina) said stop it Jamie, Lea is a 2nd grader. Lea turned to her Mom who replied, yes, pink is real. Pink is a color that is a blend of red and white.
Can you buy me some pink clothes Lea asks her Mom? I am busy right now; can you ask one of your sisters? Lea ran to her sister. Can you take me to the mall please Jamie please? NO! Brat. Tina gave Jamie a stern look. I will take you to the mall Lea. Tina had $900 in her wallet.
They went on Tina’s bike to the mall. At the mall, Lea saw her BFF Tillman, and Ms. Strickland was with him. She gave him a hug; Lea asked him if he was buying clothes. He said No, I am buying a white hat. Tina called Lea to the pink section and they end up buying a whole new wardrobe that will last for at least two years.
When they finished shopping, Lea & Tillman went to the food court. They ordered pizza and milk shakes. When they were done eating, they went outside with Ms. Strickland and Tina. Ms. Strickland asked Lea, “Do you have a favorite color”? No, not really Lea said. After the brief chat, it was time for Tina & Lea to go home. Lea said “see you tomorrow”.
On the way home, Lea thought saw pink cars, trucks, and bikes, pink houses, pink trees, and pink people. It was like she was seeing, hearing, reading, pink everywhere she would go. She thought it was a sign that she liked pink but she didn’t know it. When she got home, everything was fine, but that night her vision was pink again. Her sisters and her mother was all pink, she thought her whole room was pink, the bathroom was pink, even her toothbrush was pink.
The next morning, Lea was still seeing pink. She put on her clothes. She was wearing a short sleeve pink shirt and a long pink skirt with sparkles and ruffles at the bottom. Tina gave Lea bags of old pairs of pink shoes & pink hats. The hat she was wearing was a light pink hat with dark pink bows and sprinkles of glitter on the top with the word Pinky toward the center. The pair of shoes she was wearing was pink also with bows.
Lea’s mom went to her room and gave her a bag, she wondered what is in the bag now, as she was opening it, her mom started to smile. In the bag were….pink purses! It was full of pink purses! Lea put all the stuff she needed in her purses such as; her lip gloss, her Hand Sanitizer (germ X), her pencil and note pad, and mini treats. Just then the bus pulled in front of her house. It was time for school!!!
When Lea got on the bus, she sat down with BFFs Vanessa, Zac, Destiny, and Tillman. Vanessa aka nessa, Zac aka Z-man, also known as Zanessa.
Vanessa was wearing a long pink dress. Destiny was wearing a pink shirt with pink pants. Zac & Tillman where wearing all white, and Tillman wore a white hat.
When they arrived at school, everyone at school was saying Lea looked like a beautiful pink princess. She went to her math class, and learned how to find the factor of the numbers 1,2,3,4, and 5.
Sitting next to Lea was her good friend Jessica, and on the other side of her was Destinine, and in front of her was Cameron. Finally, math was over.
Next Lea had music class with friends Timmy, James and Michelle. They learned a song and sung it over and over for practice.
It was time for Lea to go to her reading class. After class she walked across the hall for reading.
Tillman and his BFT Ms. Strickland were playing a reading game with pink flash cards, or so she thought.
The flash cards were really white she thought seeing pink again, but that was not the case, Ms. Strickland was behind the desk and Tillman was reading a book. “Uh oh I’m not just seeing pink I’m dreaming about it too” said Lea. When she realized her pink problem, she ran to all her friends (her BFFs and friends) and asked them to come to a meeting at her house after school.
It was time for LUNCH! The menu for today was pizza, cookies with pink frosting and your choice of strawberry (pink) or chocolate (brown) or white milk. Lea picked chocolate milk, but when she got to the table her milk was…….strawberry. She knew she had picked chocolate, but she just drank the milk anyway.
When lunch was over, she went to her favorite class ART! They had to say their favorite color. Ms. Harp went around the room. Zac said blue, Vanessa said purple, Destiny said red, Tillman said blue, Lea said “I don’t know” the whole class looked at her for a while, the teacher said that she would come back to her, so she went on with the rest of the class. A boy said orange, a girl said green, a girl yellow, and a boy said black. Lea’s teacher came back to ask her again. “Okay Lea, what’s your favorite color?” I really don’t know! Lea answered.
The class glanced at her for a second, some just LOL, but that didn’t bother Lea at all. Then the teacher wanted them to get with a partner. Lea picked Tillman, “do you want to come over my house later?” Yes! Tillman said with excitement. The class was playing an art game. When class was over, Lea ran to the bus and waiting to be dropped off at home. When she got home all BFFs and Friends her was already there.
They all talked about Lea’s pink problem. Lea explained to them that lately when she closed her eyes then open them she saw pink stars, pink everything. Lea then started asking her friends what they would do if they had this problem. “Get help!” Vanessa answered. “That why you’re here,” Lea said. Vanessa smiled. “Any more ideas?” Lea asked. “Anyone?” Nobody responded.
Just then, Lea said “well nobody can think on an empty stomach let’s EAT!!!” Everyone hungrily agreed. Lea went into the kitchen and asked her mom, “Can you make us some snacks please?” Sure sweetie her mom responded.
Mom made some nachos and 11glassess of punch and some apples slices. They ate their snacks. After they had finish, they plenty of ideas. Now, what do I do about the problem I have Lea asked? Timmy, Cameron, James (Brothers) said “don’t blink”, you have to blink said Destinine. Look at another color Michelle said. I don’t think that will stop my problem said Lea. Jessica said you just have to try harder to get pink out of your head, by concentrating other colors over and over again, I thought about that idea closely. Destiny said why would you want to get rid of the color pink?
You don’t like the color pink? That is what I’m trying to figure out said Lea. Lea was saying “It’s not that I want to get rid of pink, I just want to get it out of my head so much, Lea said.
Zac said “does some pink things you are thinking about has sparkles, glitter and stickers, you like that stuff right?” Yeess said Lea. So why don’t you like pink? Said Zac. Lea sighed. Vanessa explained it’s not that she don’t like pink, any color can have sparkle, glitter and stickers. Lea thought about it for a long time. Lea’s mom said “It’s getting late, it’s time that I drive ya’ll home.” Lea grabbed Vanessa by the arm and said “I guess I could learned to love pink”, they both smiled. “Thanks everyone” Lea said.
Time passed by. Lea grew older; she was now 7 years old and in the 3grade. Lea soon discovered she LOVES PINK!! Lea wears pink almost everyday. Everybody at Lea’s school started calling her Ms. Pinky. Lea now is a member of a singing group called The Pink Cupcakes.
Lea also had a clubhouse built called the Pink power place. Everything inside her clubhouse is pink. Pencils, pink paper, a pink books, pink chairs, pink tables, a pink radio, pink lights, a pink laptop, TV, and more!
Lea and all her friends (BFF and friends) meet in her clubhouse on weekends and sometimes during the week. Sometimes they even had sleepovers, parties, campouts, meeting, played dress-up, put on plays and Fashions shows for their parents. They also had a lot of contests such as singing, dancing, coloring, and so much more!
Lea and all her friends did something different everyday. On Monday they had a dancing contest and afterwards would have a snack with drinks. On Tuesday it was meeting with snack a drinks, on Wednesday they play dress-up, and afterwards would have a snack with a drinks, on Thursday they had singing and coloring contests and shortly afterwards a snack with drinks, and on Friday they watched movies and they ate popcorn and drank pop, then
at nighttime the sleepover began.
On Saturday they put on plays and Fashions shows for all their parents, the parents left happy and proud. Later on in the day, the kids had a party with lots of food such as: pizza, chicken wings, pink lemonade, fruits punch, pink frosting cupcakes, candy, and cake with pink icing and strawberries on top of the cake. After the party was over, all the kids went home.
On Sunday, it was Book Day; everybody had to bring a book. Lea already had a book, and of course it was pink. After reading for several hours, then they had a little picnic with food and drinks, then after a few hours, everyone would leave. Lea and all her friends did those same activities almost every week, but differently.
By the time CHRISTMAS came, Lea was hoping for everything pink. Oh-no, one of the presents was not pink; Lea was a little upset and kind of mad. Lea walked sadly to her room, when she got to her room she said “I told everyone I wanted everything to be pink” she stopped as her mother came in to talk to her. Afterward, she felt better.
The next day at school, Lea was a whole new person, not by the way she looked, but by the way she acted. Lea realized that sometimes people get tried of the word pink. They get tired of hearing about it, and seeing it, and Lea talking about it. Even all of her BFF’s was sick of the talk about pink.
After 2 years of hearing and seeing pink it started to get old and Lea’s mom said it to her, but Lea did not understand or care, she was going to love the color pink and wanted everything pink no matter what. Lea just would not stop. It was PINK! PINK! PINK!
Two girls walked up to Lea and said, this is what you are, in hands was some nuts. Nuts??? Lea said. Incorrect the girls said. The other girl told Lea to looked at the nut, it was painted pink and had a crazy look, yep you’re a crazzzy pink nut, and not in a good way said the girls walking off. Lea did not like what the girls said at all. After a while, a group of boy walked by Lea. One boy said “uh-oh there goes the pink here pink there pink everywhere girl.” Another boy said “we need a break from your pink Ms. Pinky. You changed from Ms. Pinky into Miss Pinky, the girl who loved too much pink.” Another said ‘too much of a good thing now can be bad thing later.’
After 2 years, of the negative comments about Lea/Miss Pinky, Lea had enough of this, when school let out, she got on the bus. One of 2 girls said “Oh Gosh, the pink freak has arrived once again.” Lea was little upset about the comments. When she arrived at home, she told her mom about the not so nice comments made at school again.
By the time she was 12 years old the kids at
School was still making negative comments but she didn’t care. Lea did think she did she needed to take a break from pink. As she was growing into a teenager, she didn’t want people thinking she was one color girl. Believe it or not, she started to love other colors such as; blue, purple, red, orange, yellow, green, gold, silver, white, and even black. Even though she loved all these colors, pink still was the one for her.
Lea knew that in her heart she was and will always be the one and only Miss Pinky!!!
