AMANDA'S ARGUMENT

It was an awful day for Amanda.

- By Jeevani Pereira

Her best friend and neighbour Chenuki and she had an argument, and they weren’t speaking to each other anymore.

The argument had begun as something really silly. They were playing Snakes and Ladders together and Chenuki had asked if they could make the Snakes the Ladders and the Ladders the Snakes.

“It would make the game interesting,” she said with a grin.

“The game is already interesting,” Amanda had said. Amanda liked to stick by the rules.

“No it isn’t! We have played it a million times this way. Let’s change things up!” said Chenuki.

But Amanda kept saying no. Soon their argument had become a shouting match.

“I think you are being silly sometimes Chenuki,” Amanda yelled. “You always like silly things and act so silly ALL the time!”
