• The creation
    tab The farm that my father and I once hoped that could be our kingdom has come true. The smell of the old and priceless diesel engines doing their work our historical farm. I had made the farm dad always wanted. The only modern machinery in the ancient farm was in the large shed at the dark corner past the blacksmith shop. It was my fathers shed, he would go there after dinner to restore the Fordson E27N till the unfortunate accident, that was.



    The beginning
    tab It was Tuesday, I was in dad’s garden watering the peas, when I heard a gun shot. I fell to the ground thinking if that shot was meant to hit me or had it already. As I checked for wounds, out of the corner of my eye I saw a figure walk towards me laughing historically, was my older sister. Her name was Melissa. She was slightly shorter than me, her long brown hair was swaying in the breeze taping the cocked gun resting on her shoulder.


    tab “You fall for anything!”she yelled from about 20m away. I could tell from the way she was walking something good was up with her.
    tab “Oh will you shut up! Why are you always trying to scare me?
    tab “Its fun and why are you still watering dad’s garden?”
    tab “Because you, Sally and your ‘boyfriend’ never help!”
    tab “Well, you said yesterday that you help me practice for my C grade gun licence!”
    tab At that moment I saw Sally getting out of her car at the house. She had hand full’s of something. I couldn’t see because Melissa stepped into the view of Sally. “You want to come or not?”
    tab “Sorry, I’ve got to finish watering the peas then head out to help dad with the ute and get the tractor over there, but if you help I may come for a wile, dad can wait!”
