Tales from childhood: A trip to an amusement park.

Hi, dear readers! My name is H. I'm a man from another short story called "How I look at life". Do you remember this story? Even if you don't remember, it's normal.

Today my family and I will go to the big city by bus, and then we will ride the metro.

But our main goal is the amusement park. We will all ride the Ferris wheel there. My son wants to ride the carousel and jump on the trampoline. Child needs to have a good time!

"Dear, we're already there" my wife said.

We left the metro and walked down the street. I admire this place and joke about it. My wife likes it.

The day will soon be over. We rode the Ferris wheel. It was awesome! I remembered my youth when I often rode on amusement rides.

My little son has been everywhere and he liked it.

Tales from childhood: Did I do the right thing?

"You must leave him! You're a young and beautiful woman, and your husband has become ugly! Such a person can ruin your whole life!" some woman in the city center said.

Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Timothy's ex-wife. The same "man without face" the rest isn't so important.

It's just that society put a lot of pressure on me. Everyone around me said that a woman and a small child shouldn't be with such a man. So, I decided to leave Timothy together with our daughter.

"You did the right thing. Timothy must live somewhere in the forest far from people." my neighbor said.

Also, I once overheard Mrs. Anne's conversation and she said that I was a traitor! I had to accept Timothy as he is and teach the child this. But that's it! There isn't longer such an opportunity!

"Your wife acted very meanly with you. She can't just up and leave!" Mrs. Anne told Timothy.

Well, please tell me, what should I have done?!

Tales from childhood: A home for a family.

Hi! I'm Mr. Theodor. Yes, I again speak with you.

My father left me an inheritance. Now I use it for my children. We have several houses in different places.

The mother of my children died under unclear circumstances. Beth and Johnny were still little then. Unfortunately, this is what happened. They know about it.

"We are family!" I told people many years ago.

Although some people still don't understand me. These things aren't important for me.

Then he met another wizard in the forest, Dutch-Mike. This creature granted Peter's wish, but replaced his heart with a stone.

Tales from childhood: How I look at life.

Good evening, everyone! I'm a friend of Raymond's family. I want to tell you about my views.

I'm a positive person. That's what my wife says. If you succeed, then it's good. And if not, then you didn't really want it. Maybe you can do these things next time.

Also, of someone speaks badly about you, don't be upset, because if people call you that, it's they who call you that.

I immediately forget about such trifles. And I advise others to do the same.

"Yes, that's how it should be!" my child said.

Tales from childhood: What is our reality?

Hi! I'm Beth. Now is time for interesting story. I think that you know about Angela and her parents. So, I want to tell you a secret. Actually, her real family died a few years ago.

Therefore, Angela simply made up many situations due to severe stress. Then it got better when Raymond and Maria took her in.

One of my friends, who knows the family well, told me all this. Although it may just be her fantasy.

Hello, people! I'm Sophie. I want to tell with you about situation.

Angela is my friend. I know her good enough. 

Once there was such a case with her. She was beaten by the boys from the neighborhood. Then her own mother called her bad words for it. She said that Angela was to blame for everything and shouldn't expect protection from her. Besides. her daughter was older than those boys.

"What is this?" Natalie asked Angela, when she saw her bruises.

"It's all my fault." she said.

What do you think about this situation?

Tales from childhood: Alone girl.

Hello, dear readers! I'm Maria. I want to tell you about my young years. 

I grew up in orphanage. The state raised me. Also, I found my distant relative Timothy in a foster family.

Now about the present. I'm the mother of my son. I have an adopted daughter, too. Her name is Angela. She is essentially an orphan, so we took Angela into our family.

"I was once a lonely little girl, but now I have found different friends," Angela said.

"It's very good!" I said with a smile.

He is a very good person. Timothy can tell funny stories and jokes. We all support him.

Tales from childhood: My new events.

In this year I made important things yet.

Hello everyone. I'm Timothy. I spent my childhood in a foster family. Now I only keep touch with my sister Maria. My other siblings have all moved away. I don't know where they are.

A few years ago I went through a difficult time in my life. Many people didn't know about my real problem. The lady in red was the one who supported me.

"You're a good young man," she said with a kind smile.

"You have a very kind heart," I said.

Also, I knew personal secrets from this woman.

Tales from childhood: Another person and his view.

Lara was an ill-mannered child. And her mother was ill-mannered, too. Even after several years, little has changed. Maybe they just became calmer. Grandfather didn't tell them anything at all.

"This is how they communicate," Sophie's grandmother said.

Raymond and Maria had a family friend. He was very cheerful and kind. Also, their friend had a great sense of humor. So, his life was easy and positive.

Tales from childhood: The secrets of the town.

“I live here many years,” Mrs. Anne said.

It was true. An elderly woman lived for many years in a small suburb of a large city. Perhaps over the years Mrs. Anne knew things that other residents didn’t.

There was even a case where a resident of a big city was found in the suburb. Her family was very happy!

Sophie and her friends visited many different places in the suburb. Also, they visited a big city often.

There was a secret place in Mrs. Anne’s house that only a few people knew about.

Tales from childhood: Angela and her childhood.

Angela was born in a simple family. Her parents worked very much. So, Angela kept herself busy at home. She played with toys and watched TV.

Then when it was time to go school Angela went there by herself. And she did her homework by herself, too.

Sometimes Angela felt lonely, but then it went away because she became proud of herself.

Angela's parents were really busy with their own affairs at that time. At least that's people told Angela.

Perhaps Raymond and Maria knew some secrets of this family and that is why they took the girl.

"Angela was really lucky! Society paid attention to her problems in time." Sophie's grandmother said.

It was her destiny.

The woman in red had another destiny. Still no one knew her real name. Also, there were many mysteries surrounding this person. She never talked about her childhood and family. But at the same time, lady in red once had all of this.

Now she forgot about her past life. Or woman in red remembered just a little. She liked her destiny.

Tales from childhood: Happy event for Angela.

When Angela lived with her parents she didn't remember many days. She was a little girl then.

In her new family, Angela was able to find herself and real friends. She was very happy!

In her old family, Angela didn't have time for different things. But there were people who helped her. Angela was grateful and patient. She used to feel lonely, but now it has passed. Also, Angela learned to understand people and notice things that not everyone notices.

It was a good example for Sophie and her friends.

Tales from childhood: Real friend?

“Our daughter often talks about a certain person. Allegedly, he lost his face in an accident and his wife left him with their child. Then he had surgery to reconstruct his face.” Angela’s mother said.

“I haven’t heard anything about him. Also, I haven’t anything know about this story.” Angela’s father said.

“Maybe it’s better for such people to be as quiet as possible and not to show themselves.” the wife said.

“Yes, let such strange people roam other places. For example, in forest.” the husband said.

“It’s good that Angela now lives with Raymond and Maria, I think she’s better off there.” the woman said.

“I think so, too.” the man said.

Angela knew how to notice what others couldn’t understand, but at the same time she found like-minded people in her new family. Timothy lived with them in the same house and they treated everything calmly.
