One day in the life of a wallet.

The Adventures of Wallis the Wallet

One day I, Wallis the Wallet was sitting in a box with a bunch of other wallets. I was in Amy’s Accessories store with all my other wallet friends, until one day a lady named Sally reached in my box and grabbed me. At first I was scared, but when she bought me she put $47.51 in me. 

All of the dollar bills were mean and stuck up. They thought they were better than everyone else because they were made out of cottony-greenish paper. The two quarters were shy, they only spoke to each other. I saw a lonely penny. I asked her what her name was and she said, “My name is Lincoln.” very shyly.

I said, “Hi Lincoln, my name is Wallis. Do you want to be my friend?”

“Sure,” Lincoln said. Lincoln and I got to know each other very well. We have a lot in common.

Two weeks had passed and Sally went to the movie theater. I was inside Patty the Purse. Everything that was inside Patty was me, a candy bar, lip gloss, and an iPod. There was still $46.26 inside me because Sally spent $1.25 on the candy bar. After the movie, Sally accidentally left Patty in her seat when she left the movie theater. The janitor was cleaning up theater when he saw Patty. Dropping the broom, the janitor opened Patty and took me out, opened me, then took out all of the mean, stuck up bills. I’m so glad he didn’t take Lincoln. 

After the janitor took the mean-old bills he put us in The “The next day Sally found Patty and took her home. Then she said to her husband that she was going to have a yard sale. So she and boxes and put junk in them. The next day, Sally put the boxes in a yard sale and then the most tragic thing happened! She took everything out Patty then through her in a box, then me. A girl named Anne  bought me. Penny and I together are not worth $3! Even worse, the girl was five years old, she’ll lose me! 

That night I met two more dollar bills, they were mean also. One day Anne took me with her to finger paint.

“Oh no!” I told Lincoln. “I like my brown color, I don’t want to be red or blue!!” I said. 

Lincoln told me I needed to calm down and handed me a chill pill. It made me so relaxed that I fell asleep. Anne went to work at her finger painting. Yes, I got yellow spots on me. I felt the gooey finger paint on my poor, innocent, brown leather, so I almost fainted. Lincoln handed me another chill pill. I refused to take anything this time.

That night when I went to bed Lincoln told me how glad she was to be my friend. She also said I was her first and only friend. I felt pretty good about that until Anne came in the room screeching, “A DIME, A DIME!”Lincoln and I both covered our ears and she put inside me. We offered to be friends with the dime, but she said “No thanks.” So she stayed in her own little corner and we never spoke to her again.

One day Anne took us to the store and bought a gum ball with the dime. Then it was back to just Penny and I. We said hi to a nickel, but he was the same as the dime. She didn’t last long either. Neither did the quarter or the dollar. Anne never spent Lincoln because you couldn’t buy anything with just her. So Lincoln and I lived happily ever after.

The End
