The Poor and the Rich by Lee Yong Seok, Grade 3, ISKL
“Please give us some money,” said the poor man, very sadly. I gave him a lot of money so he had no more money problems. One day, a burglar came to the bank where I worked. He took all the money in the bank. However, he police tracked him down.
I used to be rich but I became middle-class because I gave too much money to the poor. The next day, the prices of stocks went down really fast. I became bankrupt! Five days later, I got sick but I couldn’t go the hospital. I checked my wallet but my credit card was not there. I had been robbed. I gasped.
A few days later, I became a beggar and I was begging in front of Ampang Point. I couldn’t eat for nine days because I had no money. I was starving so I started to eat the leftovers I found at the fast-food restaurants. Everyone was unhappy to see me. My footsteps were muddy and made people leave. Two months later, it was winter. I walked through the white, cold, shiny snow. “Brr!” Little white stuff fell on me. I was tired. There was a bench. I had a nap on it. The temperature was minus twenty degrees. It was very cold.
I dreamed I went to a mountain. I found a four-leaved clover. It was a miracle. It meant I was lucky. Then I woke up. The next day, I bought a lottery with the little money that I had saved. I had the winning ticket! The person in charge said that I had won a million dollars! Thanks to the clover, I became rich again. I was really happy. I got my job, my house and my status back. I wore elegant clothes.
I ran as fast as a cheetah to my friends. They were happy to see me. We had a party and we went shopping together. I was never a beggar again. I was happy but I wished I was even richer!
