A TINY LIFE

Have you ever notice that people that is short in height always try to look bigger than they are. Buying big cars, huge houses, big dogs, and even they are married with someone tall. I am hee to tell you a story of three friends that do not need to be tall, because they are tiny, very tiny, but that dont stop them from living a wonderfull life.

The three of them live in a beutifull house, ok a horrible house. This house seem abandoned, and yes it was abandoned, except for a cat and the three friends I am talking about. Inside the house was nothing, all in dark and alone, except for a room that was full of toys, a kid lived in their for sometime, but he and his family left the house. They said that it was hunted, you can hear laugh of people in the rooms and sometimes you can hear steps.

Ok, this story is not about the house, it is about the who makes the sounds in there. Yes, the sounds are made by the three friends that I said you. They live in the room full of toys. They are toys too, do you really think that they were persons, no they are toys that can talk and move, they are alive. No one understand how they are alive, but they are alive and they are friends. They look like the guys of "Star Wars", and they too look like action figures of "Lego". They never stop playing, talking, and making noise, they live very happy in that room. The only world they know is that house, they had never get out of that house, and too because they are so tiny that they had not even visit all the house.

One day, one of the them try to get on the top of a sofa. When he finally did it, he saw through out the window, and on the street pass a car, a big one. In his little mind he said: "I want one of this". After seen through the window, he went to say to his friend what he saw out there. After telling them what he saw, the three of them had an idea, to get out of the house and see what is outside. Since they are so tiny they cannot push the door and get outside, so the only way to go is through a window that was always open, but it was in the second floor, were the cat lives. They pass the stairs to the second floor and start walking to the room were the window is. When they finally enter the room, there it was, the cat sleeping beside the window on the bed. They get on the bed without making a noise because they were tiny, and start walking to the window. The first of them pass through the window easily, the second too, but the third touched the cats tail while passing through the window and the cat awake. Bot when the cat awake, they were all three outside the house, so the cat did not notice what touch him.

The house was ubicated in a kind of forest full of trees, and in front the house was a road. They start walking through the grass and plants when they finally reach the road. They start to wait for a car to pass, but no one pass. They wait like for two hours when finally they hear a strange sound for them. It was a car coming. One of them stand in front of the car, but the car travel to fast that he did not had time to do sometime. They start waiting for other car to pass, but no one pass. It was already night, and they start to feel that they will never get on a car, when suddenly they hear a noise on the bushes, a squirrel. The squirel was hungry, even due squirrels only eat nuts this one was so hungry that he will eat anything. The three friends notice that the squirrel was not their friend so they start running to the road, and the squirrel was following them. Suddenly a car was coming, when they were passing through the road. The car pass to fast that no one saw something. The squirrel was alive, but the three "Lego" figures were not there. Some people say that they were kill by the wheel of the car, but I think that they finally do it and get in the car. i do not know were they are now, or if they are still alive, but they show us that even due you are a short person, you can do the same things other people does.
