Sarah and her boyfriend Tim were sitting on the couch watching TV, among other things. Tim’s parents had left him home alone and Sarah had decided to pay a surprise visit. Tim was going away to college in the fall and this was going to be one of her last chances to see him. Sarah was an exchange student from Ireland that Tim had met in the debate club. She was very light skinned and her angular face was spotted with freckles and framed with fiery, red hair. She had full, pink lips that were always smiling and eyes that glistened like emeralds.

As I tried to open the door to the local joke shop i found that it was locked. This was really weird for a thursday afternoon, the window bars werent even down yet so i knocked on the glass. A small elderly man walked out from the back with a disturbed look on his face. He opened the door and spoke.

"what do you want?!" he growled

"I wanted to come in and look around to find something but the door was locked..are you closed?" i asked.

His face contorted like he was sucking on a lemon

"well the door is locked isnt it?!" he asked angrily.
