            An Unforgettable Day (The Original Story)


            Whenever I look at that photograph, I remember my childhood and the most encouraging day of
            my life. One day in my school years, I had such a memory that I would never forget in my life. It
            was towards the end of the school year. The weather was so hot and muggy. The schoolyard was
            too crowded with people waiting for the running race. I was one of the sprinters in the race. I was
            nervous and trembling while I was lining up in the schoolyard.
            I can still remember my heart pounding, shouts of the spectators and my classmates’ gazing upon
            me. It was my first race at school and I wanted to win it more than anything else. While I was
            approaching towards the start, my body was still shaking. When I saw my friends waving happily, I
            began to feel even more nervous. At that time, I decided to keep calm and took a deep breath. Then,
            the starting whistle blew and I started to run. I was concentrated on my track and determined to
            win. Everything was going well and it was just the way I wanted. Then, something terrible happened.
            I stumbled and fell on the grass.  I was so embarrassed at that moment.
            After a few seconds, I looked at my parents’ faces. They were smiling at me with a sense of faith
            and trust. I could feel their support right then. I had the strength to stand up and run on the track. I
            ran faster and faster but there were still a few runners ahead of me. I was so exhausted but I never
            gave up. Finally, I saw the finish line and then crossed it. Later, the headmaster announced the
            result. I came second in race but I was still so happy with the result because without my parents’
            support, I couldn’t even have finished the race. When I got my certificate, I was so proud of my
            parents in my life. That day, my parents and I took this photo as a reminiscence.

            She straightened up in her bed and rubbed her eyes to be sure that it was just a nightmare. As
            she was trying to get the glass full of water standing on the bedside, her mom entered the room.
            “Are you ready for the journey, honey? It’s time to have a quick breakfast and hit the road!” said
            her mom.
            Judy was groggy with sleep. She thought for a moment and remembered that they would go on a
            long holiday to Italy.

             The story’s high point: Her mom entered the
             room and told her that it was time to go.



          Setting 2 goes best for the story.
