It was the date July 9th, 2074. Kenth, 67, was a short chubby guy, Stepped out of his three bedroom colonial house. He decided it was time to move out of his big house, his kids are all grown up and his wife has passed on to heaven. His youngest son Edwin who lived close by was helping his father pack up all his clothes. When he suddenly ran into an old dusty journal.
“Dad do you want this journal?”
“What journal Ed?”
“The one that dates back to 2007?”
“Oh! My journal I’ve been looking for that for so long!”
“Why?”
“It’s a journal I wrote back when I was about your age of something that happened on spring break in 2007”.
“You actually did fun things in your days?’
“Yes, a lot different from what I can do now, but do you want me to read the journal to you?”
“Yes”
The two sate down on the worn out couch. Kenth opened up the old book and they both started coughing because of how much dust there was.
It all started March 26, 2007. I was just eighteen when my friends Kadyn Parrott, Alana Preston and my best friend Darien Winegar decided to go somewhere on spring break instead of staying home. When Darien blurted out
“I’ve got it!! Let’s go to Ottawa it isn’t a long drive and my dad owns a summer house out there.”
All four of us packed up the sleek and shiny black escalade. The drive was only two hours but felt like forever. We finally arrived to Darien’s dad’s summer house. Excited as everyone else. I jumped out the car, ran up to the house but noticed the front door was unlocked and there were footprints all over the front porch. I yell out to Darien
“Dude someone’s been here the doors unlocked”
Darien said” That’s not possible none of my family have been here”
“Yes it is Darien I think someone has broken in”
Darien said “Well if they have hopefully no one is still in their”
All of a sudden there comes a big loud scream from the inside of the house. It must have been from Alana and Kadyn so Darien and I run inside to see what’s going on. When we walk into the kitchen I suddenly jump back and wiped my eyes. I couldn’t believe what was in front of me the Sasquatch! And he wasn’t acting like an animal he was sitting at the dinner table eating cereal. He didn’t make a move and we didn’t either till he walked to the kitchen and clean the bowl. Darien had come back to the kitchen with a big facial expression.
“Dude he’s not just eaten cereal he has been living here, he has everything he wants in this house but the bathroom is a mess I mean ugh hair everywhere”
“Well Darien how did he get in here?” said Kadyn
“Kadyn are you dumb look at the big arms on that walking animal”
We couldn’t really move this Sasquatch out of here so we just had to mind our own business and he would mind his own business. We all actually enjoyed having him around he was just like a more hairy type of friend even though every time he yawned he almost blew everyone’s ear drums and when he laughed it was so damn funny. He sounded like the Sasquatch on hairy meets the Henderson’s which that’s how he fit in with us he went swimming but he couldn’t go shopping because he likes eating everything in the store. He stayed with us for about 7 days then one morning he disappeared, we all was sad and didn’t know where he had gone. Darien, Kadyn and I went looking for him but we never found him, of course he couldn’t leave us a note because he didn’t know how to write duh. We all miss him still curious to why he left but I will never forget the time I met Sasquatch once and a life time thing.
Kenth closed the journal after he had read the last page.
“Wow dad I never knew you met Sasquatch I thought he was fake”
“Edwin he was real I saw him in real life and I’ll never forget about it “
