Dear Universe,
I am having a problem with my friend twister. He will
not let me go live in Zacatecas. I want to spend time
with my family and study the history of my ancestors.
I want to learn more about what their life was like,
to see if I could learn if they had a special nest which
my grandparent slept in, my parents slept in and my
children can sleep in. I want to learn more so I can
teach my children and they can teach their children
down generations.

| Twister: |
|
( twists
in)
You can’t leave me.Why are you doing this to me.I
thought I was your buddy.
|
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
You
are my best buddy but I gotta go to Zacatecas. To
spend time with my family and look for the family nest
that my mom left for me for my children. |
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
You can’t
leave me here alone. I’ll go there and destroy
all the nests of your family. I would feel bad but I
really want you to stay. You can’t just leave me
here and leave like we’ve never been friends.Who
am I going to talk to? You’re the only one
I can trust.
|
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
Are you
threatening me? I thought you were my friend. Now you
want to kill my family. That would really hurt me. I
thought you were my buddy.
|
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
I
am your buddy. I don’t want you to leave me all alone. |
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
There
is a family emergency. My mom wants me to go get the nest
because somebody is living there right now and they could
mess it up. Then we won’t be able to sleep in it
no more and it’ll break family tradition. If I break
it I’ll feel ashamed of myself and my mom will feel
disappointed of me. |
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
You told
me you would always stay with me, you’d never leave
me. I’ll make you a new nest. I’ll have the
birds make you a better nest. The tradition one is all
old, rusty, all used.
|
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
I
need the old one. It’s been in my family for years.What
part don’t you understand.I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
(walks away hurt) |
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
Twister
steals another bird’s next and fixes it to look old
and stuff.(lying)
Look Carla. Last night I went to get the nest all the
way to Zacatecas. I brought you your tradition nest. So
you don’t gotta leave. |
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
How’d
you go so fast. It’s all the way in Mexico and we’re
all the way in the United States. You’re tricking
me. I gotta go anyway cause I got to go with my family.
You can come with me and live there with me. You can meet
my family and we’ll still be buddies and we can travel
around Mexico. |
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
No,
I want to travel to Antarctica where it’s cold but
I don’t want to lose you. You’re my best, best
friend. Look Carla, I got a plate full of juicy worms.
I got it just for you. |
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
Are
you trying to kiss up to me so I won’t leave. It
ain’t gonna work this time. First you threaten me,
then you lie to me, now you spoil me by giving me a plate
of juicy worms. You’re trying to not let me go to
Mexico. I need to accomplish my dream. You can move there
with me |
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
No,
I can’t cause I’ll die cause the sun’s
real bright over there. The sun is my enemy. He doesn’t
like me. He’s always pushing me away. |
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
You can
come live with me over the winter cause it’s not
hot over the winter. And then I’ll live in my old
house with you over the summer.
|
|
|
|
| Twister: |
|
How
do I know you’re not tricking me. How do I know you
ain’t trying to get me back? |
|
|
|
| Carla: |
|
How
could I do this to you? We’ve been buddies forever.
You can trust me. You know I’ve never lied to you. |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
The
End. |
