The sandcastle of friendship

in #hive-17079810 months ago

There was a little boy named Ade. He was known to be the only child of his parents. He hardly plays with friends, especially when he is in school because his parents do not want him to play with friends because of what they've heard concerning the children in the environment.

He found it an exciting thing when his school announced an excursion to the ocean for the students to have fun. His parents allowed him to go on the excursion.

Finally, the day arrived that he had always dreamed of visiting the ocean. One day, his parents surprised him with a dress he would wear to the beach. As he and his fellow students arrived there, Ade's eyes grew wide with wonder. He had never seen anything like it before. The ocean was so big and blue, and the waves were so powerful and loud. Ade couldn't wait to get closer and explore.

As he and his friend walked closer to the ocean, the salty smell of the air filled their noses. Ade could feel the wind blowing through his hair, and he noticed the seagulls flying overhead. He also noticed how the sand felt warm and soft beneath his feet. Then, he explained something else—the tide was coming in! The waves were getting bigger and closer to the shore. He was a little scared but also excited. He had never seen anything like it before.

He decided to build a sandcastle. He scooped up some wet sand and packed it into a big pile. Then, he used his hands to shape the sand into walls and towers. As he worked, the waves kept getting closer and closer. Just when he thought his sandcastle was finished, a big wave came rushing toward it! He was worried that his hard work would be washed away. But then, something amazing happened. The wave crashed over the sandcastle, but the castle stood strong. He was so happy! The sandcastle was even more beautiful with the water glistening on it.

He decided to test the strength of his sandcastle. He stood back and threw a pebble at it. The pebble hit the castle, but it didn't even leave a scratch! He was thrilled. He tried throwing a bigger rock, but still, the castle remained intact. He even tried stomping on it with his foot, but the castle held strong. He had built the strongest sandcastle ever. Then, he sees something out of the corner of his eye.

He saw a girl standing nearby, looking at his sandcastle with wide eyes. She looked as if she wanted to build a sandcastle too, but she didn't know where to start. He walked over to the girl and asked if she wanted to help him build another sandcastle. The girl nodded excitedly and began gathering sand with him. As they worked together, he taught the girl how to shape the sand and make towers. By the end of the day, they had built a whole sand city. The girl gave him a big hug, and they became good friends. They were happy and proud of building a tower for everyone to admire. Their teacher snaps the tower. I took the picture to the school to post it for the remaining children to see.

This project gladdens his heart a lot for making a new friend and also building a tower that everyone can admire.

Everyone has fun, while he makes more friends through the towel project.

He didn't know that such a great day would come for him.

@omolayo, we have some feedback for you. The first thing is that you have written a fictional story for the creative nonfiction prompt. Please read this article, which is provided at the top of each of our creative nonfiction prompts, to understand the difference between fiction and nonfiction.

The second thing is that your story appears to be mostly written by AI, which we do not allow in The Ink Well. Please read and abide by our community rules. Thank you.

I only write it from my imagination but not with AI. I knew so well that Hive platform does not support contents from AI and I can never make use of it.

I will take note as to the fictional aspect of it comes next time.

Thanks a lot @theinwell

It's good for Ade to have built a tower of this nature. This would indeed attract people.

A cute tale of childhood wonder and friendship, nice. I like what you shared.
