Snake

I asked my mom for a snake.

She said, "no" because I already have a cat.

I said to myself,

"Well, if I can't get a snake, I'll find a snake."

So I went outside and walked slowly.

Then I saw something in the brush.

I started chasing it.

It was a snake.

I caught it.

I took it home.

My mom saw it and I got grounded for a week.
