August decided that he wanted to go to his grandma’s house on Christmas, because they had a garden, a big Christmas tree and many books for him to read. Christmas Eve came and they went out into the garden to shoot some fireworks into the sky.
They went inside the house to check if they received any presents. There were many presents under the tree. August wanted a puppy for Christmas. They started to open their presents and it was August’s turn. He opened it and it was a box. He opened the box and inside was a cat.
The cat jumped on him and scratched him. His dad was a doctor. He sprayed him with some anti-venom and the scratch disappeared. He absolutely hated this Christmas. Even his mom was devastated, so she bought August a puppy.
He really liked the puppy. He never took his eyes off the puppy and one day he decided to give the puppy a name. He named him Chadwick. One day him and Chadwick were going in the streets to play. A car came by and it crashed into Chadwick. Unfortunately he died right in front of August. After that, August didn’t speak again. He didn’t go to school.
A year later on his birthday his mom surprised him with another puppy. He was really happy and it was a pit bull named Tiago. He was a really dangerous puppy. When he grew, Tiago made sure that he didn’t get bullied by his classmates. One day they went out to play basketball on the basketball court. Some kids came and tried to bully him, but they didn’t even stand a chance with Tiago protecting him. August and Tiago went back home and they lived happily ever after.
