As Lilly was in the car, she kept on looking back
at her family. They kept on getting smaller, and
smaller, and smaller until she couldn’t see them
anymore. Lilly just arrived at the dock where her
boat to New Jersey was. She was scared. But
she knew she had to do it and be brave. As Lilly
was on the ship she was silent the whole way,
unless she had to use the restroom. When Lilly
got off the ship she saw Rhode Island. She
thought she was supposed to be in New Jersey!

Well I guess her master told her the wrong place.
Then a tall skinny man came walking towards her.
Then the man asked, “ Are you Lilly Rogers?”.
Lilly replied , “Yes I am.”. “Well then, hop in the
car and we will go.” The man said. “Oh I forgot to
introduce myself. I am your new master, Ethan
Stone.” he said, as Lilly got in the car. She kept on
thinking about her family. She missed them so
much! As they pulled up to the big house, Lilly
was amazed!!!!!! It was like a palace in there!!!!!!
Then Ethan Stone showed Lilly her new room. It
was HUGE!!!!!!!! She loved it!!!!!

As Lilly un-packed, she found a picture of
her and her family. She started to cry. Why
did I have to leave? She thought. Then she
heard Ethan Stone calling her from the din-
ing room. Lilly came down stairs to Ethan
Stone. Ethan Stone asked, “ Lilly can you
wash the tables and mop the floor?” Lilly re-
plied, “ Yes master.” Lilly went and did as she
was told. After 40 minutes Ethan told Lilly to
get some food and go to bed. So Lilly got
food and went to bed.

The next morning it was Lilly’s 8th birth-
day!! She got cake!! After she ate some
cake she heard a knock at the door. Her
master smiled. She wondered why he was
smiling?? Then Ethan went to go get the
door. As he opened it ,Lilly got up and went
over. She asked herself, who could it be??
Then she heard a voice say “ Hi Lilly!! We
missed you !” . Lilly remembered that voice
from somewhere. It sounded like her mom.
“Mommy is that you?”. She asked. “Yes it is
also Rosetta and daddy. We missed you so
much.”. Then Lilly ran and gave them all a
BIG huge!!! “ This is my 2nd day and I al-
ready get to see you!!”Lilly exclaimed. Then
she looked at Ethan. Ethan said, “ Lilly I am
releasing you from being a slave. Enjoy the
rest of your life.”. Then, Lilly ran and hugged
Ethan. Lilly said, “ Thank you so much!!”.
Then Lilly and her family left. They went to
their new house, but Lilly has know idea
what was happening. Lilly asked, “ Where
are we going???”. Her dad said, “Well Ethan
bought us a house! Isn’t that amazing?”. Lilly
replied, “ Yes that is awesome.”. Then they
went to their new home.
