Hi, my name is Mike, I'm 10 years old.

The story I am going to tell you, maybe will bore you, maybe will scare you and maybe will be different from what they tell you, but this story is real.

Last week in the night at 11 o'clock for the first time I went alone, only me to the supermarket, it was dark, and I started to hear many sounds. It was scary, I was afraid.

Suddenly there were two clowns in front of me. One was glad and one of them was sad. The glad clown offered me free ice cream, I tried to run away but it was impossible because, the sad clown caught me and told me: "what you did was wrong, and this is the last time you try to escape! Am I clear?!"

"Yes", I said.

Then they put me in a dark place and left me. I didn't feel fine at all, and it was too much for me.

To be continued...

"Red Cream"

Hello dear readers, today our newspaper will deal with one of the most talked-about stories in the history of England, the people in the streets used to call the story "Red Cream" as an image of the group of people who started the story.

Leonard Smith was born on January 1 at 00:00 He was from a poor family who could not afford much, so Leonard had to work from a young age. The story begins when Leonard was 16 and worked in a restaurant where he met one of the main characters in our story "Matthew Rando". The two became friends but what Leonard did not know was that Matthew belonged to the mysterious sect called "God's Circle".

On December 1, Leonard went to work at a restaurant and did not return. The family worried and turned to the police who declared Leonard after some days of searching as Absent. The whole of England was worried about what might happen to Leonard and the police who wanted to calm the country told a lie on TV that Leonard will return home at anytime and that they were close to him, that they were actually waiting for a miracle.

For about two weeks, Leonard did not return home, the family wrote to the media these words "We miss Leonard at every moment of the day, it feels as if we are in hell". On December 28, the miracle that all of England expected came. Someone used Leonard's credit card that he had on the day he disappeared. A couple of white people in red suits caught on the bank camera use Leonard's credit card to spend money. The police who saw in the video the car that the couple was in located the car, and organized to search for Leonard. The car was found in a small village beyond the river, the police searched for clues around the village and they found a small red hut. The Police broke into the locked hut and found Leonard handcuffed and asleep.

After Leonard was found he told police how he had disappeared. Leonard said that that night his friend offered to take him home, at one point, he fell asleep while driving and got up in the red hut that his friend had next to him. These are the words Leonard said on the TV show 'The Following List": "I was so confused I did not understand where I was, only after a few days they explained to me what I was doing there, I died from scared". It turns out that the hut believed in the return of Messiah and because of Leonard's date of birth they thought that killing him and returning his soul to God would restore Messiah's soul. "They felt that everything was under control, even though they heard that the police were looking for me they did not think to cancel.

One day I got up and there was no one and then you came, they probably knew the police were on the way", this is Leonard's words from one of the TV shows he was on.

Until today the cult members have not been found, and the cult has become a kind of legend that is spread by word of mouth in the city streets. Leonard returned home and a few weeks later left the country with his family to find some quiet from everything he had been through.These are Leonard's last words to the media: ' I'm apologetic friends, thank you for everything. But I must find peace and forget about everything that happened".

So hey if you see weird people in red suits with a murderous look in their eyes, call the police.

Goodbye dear readers until the next article.

There is a job I really want to be accepted into, it requires me to bring my address and my parent’s residence. But my parent’s address is not up to date and according to them: the administration does not allow progress without the parent’s address and that is not enough. Also, I am supposed to write if I have an animal that I have adopted because it can fit more into the work (they say it shows a loving attitude and pleasant communication between people).

The whole thing with the address made me go into a trouble. I talked to my agent and he also did not know what to do because the managers did not agree to hear, so we caught an advocate to help us in the process.

The foremen started talking aggressively to the defense and this affected the respectful and restrained attitude we tried to keep and this affair only got worse.

In addition, Me, the defense attorney and my agent met for a conversation and wanted to file a lawsuit against the principals for the way they treated and the unwillingness to listen and help but then we thought about it a bit more and realized it’s not affordable because the court would not agree to it.

We finally reached an agreement with the principals that they would help me and they apologized for the way they talked and behaved towards us and left this affair behind us.

The father was a famous athlete. At the age of 17, his first child was born and his sports career was interrupted. Additionally, he fell into advanced depression and became addicted to alcohol and gambles. Jane was the eldest child. From Jane's birth,the father had aggressive behavior towards his children and his wife. He affected hiswife who developed mental problems and Jane's behavior towards others.

The mother worked alone, the children were neglected and they could not go to school because it was not affordable. An agent of the Ministry of Welfare determined that the family deserves a child allowance from the administration. Once they received an allowance, the father spent the money on gambles and alcohol. Jane was afraid to tell the address of her home because she didn't want that her friends would come to her house and be witness domestic violence. There was agreement in court that the children would be adopted.

After several days that the children in a foster home, the father burned the house while he and his wife were inside. Afterward, the woman's family hired an advocate and sued the Ministry of Welfare for inadequate attention to the children's distress for many years. The Ministry of Welfare has decided to adjust new protocols for how they need to work.
