Magic bowl

    I got a magic bowl when I was very young. The special power of this bowl was that it could clean up itself every time I’ m done with my meal in that bowl. Obviously, the good thing was that I didn’t need to wash that bowl regardless how dirty that bowl was. However, I didn’t even know how to wash a bowl by myself eventually after I got the bowl.

  About ten years after I had got the bowl, the story happened. It was a dark evening; I was sleeping in my bed. Suddenly, I heard a loud noise was coming from my kitchen. It seemed like someone was screaming. When I got there, I saw my bowl was using a knife pointing at a black cape guy. I couldn’t remember that guy’s face. All I remember was that he was covered by darkness. “I have to take him back to shue.” The guy finally broke the silence. “He’s been here for so long, and helped you so much.” “Wait! Shue? Where’s shue?” I was so confused. “It’s time for us to leave.” He kept looking at his watch and said impatiently. “I refused!” My bowl cried out. “I need to help her and stay with her. It’s my responsibility for life to take care of her. ” “You still don’t understand? They would steal your soul out of your body, if you didn’t leave. You have no choice. Now, come with me.” “No matter what happens, I still choose to stay here.” The guy glance at my bowl for one last time and left quietly.

  The story ends here. My life was changed completely after losing the bowl’s magic power. It’s just a normal bowl right now like all the other bowls, but I’m happy it didn’t leave me. Now, I have to wash it every time after finishing my meal. Although I have to learn how to wash a bowl, I would not complain doing it. I know it’s my turn to take care of it.
