QuickSanD。在自我的空間，獨舞……

今年的七夕過得很特別，晚上去補習，老師給了份表格讓我們玩看問題說故事的遊戲，我們一起討論出故事的keywords在分別進行故事寫作，雖然是七夕，不過有我在，這個故事裡所當然就會變成悲劇啦！﹝我承認大部分的keywords都是我說的，可是也沒人反對啊！﹞

我還蠻喜歡老師這樣給我們練習寫作的方式，這也是我第一次用英文寫出超過五百字的文章，寫完自己看了也很有成就，這樣多練習，英文寫作似乎也不是一件太可怕的事情了，繼女王分享自己的故事後，我本想在等一陣子後才貼出來，因為老師尚未修改，應該會有很多錯誤，不過老師回覆的速度有點……，女王也在回覆文映時要我快點貼出來，都已經有懿旨了，不從可是會被殺頭呢！不過，用英文寫當然比不上用中文寫來得順暢，許多想表達的也不見得能完全描寫出來，就將就著看一下吧！若有錯誤還請指正。

原則上故事的大架構是與女王相同的，因為是同樣的keywords寫出來的文章，差別只在描述的方式，就別嫌棄說兩個故事太雷同了。

The Night

That night, Mark came home late again. Then he went to his girlfriend’s house. He felt relaxed in there because she made no stress for him. She was unlike Mark’s wife, Laura. Laura was a nervous woman. She always put pressure on Mark and chattered nonsense. When she stayed home alone, she was always very angry and broke things for relaxation. But she always broke something and Mark came home late again and again.

When Mark came home, he gave her a diamond ring and a bunch of red roses to calm her down and walked to the bedroom to pick up his baggage. Before he picked up the baggage, he phoned his girlfriend, Kate. He told her he reached home and he was picking up his baggage, and then they both said "miss you" and "love you very much" to each other.

After the phone call, Mark felt nervous. He wanted to go on the trip with Kate right now, but he knew Laura hasn’t calmed down. So he decided to lie. He started to pick up his baggage, and put two plane tickets and some clothing in his briefcase. It would be a perfect vacation with Kate.

Outside the door, Laura heard everything. She walked into the bedroom. Mark told her he would have a business trip with his colleague. She was very angry and sad. She wanted to trust him, but she knew he lied to her. She knew her husband would have a wonderful vacation with another woman. She started to swear at him.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, then, somebody knocked at the front door. Laura went to open the door. It’s a woman, called Kate, out side the door. She said she was Mark’s colleague, and that there was a crisis in the company. She didn’t know how to deal with it. Mark should go to company with her now.

Mark was surprised at Kate’s actions, but he was so happy to he could leave home right then. So he told Laura he had to go immediately because. It was an important thing for the company. Laura didn’t know if that was a truth or a lie so she only looked Mark took his package and briefcase to leave her with that woman. And Mark went toward the airport to start their trip.

Laura returned to the house and phoned Mark’s company. Someone told her that there was no woman called Kate in the company. She knew Mark had lied to her again. She was so sad and disappointed. She didn’t know who she could believe. She phoned her mom and wanted to say everything to herm but she couldn’t say any words. She only said she was’’ fine’’. Then she hung up the phone.

She walked into the bedroom and sat down in front of her mirror. She saw herself in the mirror. Mark had loved her so much but now he had found another more perfect woman than her. She opened the drawer. A gun lay in it. She raised the gun and killed herself with it. She didn’t leave any words.

That night, something happy happened and something unhappy. At the same time, a man was excited to go a trip with his girlfriend and a woman was disappointed enough to kill herself. They were a husband and a wife both married to each other.
