Topic 3

In a brooklyn, New York brownstone, on a tree

lined street, a long time ago, there was magic between

a human little girl, named Lucy and her teddy bears.

The bears were gifts from her mom Rose, complete

with sewed outfits for every single bear. The bears

would all come alive with only the human Lucy.

Now, through the door, inside, down the stairs of the

Brooklyn brownstone the bears were covered inside

boxes, in the damp, dark, dusty basement. Dusty,

even though grandma Rose had attempted to keep

everything there nice and clean by sweeping, until

she fell in the kitchen last month and now needed to

use a cane. However, long ago, she had protected

the teddy bears by storing them inside the boxes, in

clear plastic bags with bright yellow ties. The bears

were those of her daughter Lucy, who had played with

them all the time and the Lucy had grown up, married,

and moved away. Still in other boxes were stored

plates and cups for picnics, a radio, a camera, and all

sorts of fun games. The teddy bears all remained in

the basement covered, protected, and very lonely.

Down to the very last bear, they all missed Lucy.

However, this day at a Brooklyn hospital, the rest

of the human family, which were Lucy, David, and

their daughter Sarah, who grandma Rose had never

met, rushed into the hospital emergency room door.

Sarah shivered, as she watched the hospital

personnel take her mother away on a stretcher.

"Where ar they taking mom?", Sarah asked her dad.
