麻煩小精靈

馨文

I’m Amy. I was a good girl.

But now I am not， because of this little girl.

Alice laughed at me at lunch. I really wanted to throw my soup at her. Whoosh！ The little girl jumped out. She helped me do that.

Oh， that was not me！ But nobody believed me.

The teacher punished me. She asked me to wash all the dishes.

“It would be better that all the dishes are broken，” I thought.

Whoosh！ The little girl jumped out again. She pushed down all the dishes.

“Hey， who are you？” I asked.

“I am your Trouble Elf. Sometimes there are some bad things you want to do. But you are afraid. I can always help you，” she said.

I thought I should tell the teacher all about that.

“There is a Trouble Elf around me. She always does some bad things in my name，” I said.

“Everyone has their Trouble Elves. Sometimes they can help us release our bad mood. What we need to do is to control them. Do not let them jump out easily，” the teacher said.

“Do you have your own Trouble Elf？” I asked.

“Yes， of course l do，” she said.
