Ding! went the shop door. I sat on the shelf desperately hoping I would get bought.
I thought, People probably do want to buy me, I’m a new laptop computer. I was clean and my gray color was shiny, but there was a thing I didn’t like about myself, my keys were rumbling.
When the man who walked into the shop set eyes on me, he knew I was perfect. Then, he picked me up and took me to the checkout. He paid the 5,000 dollars, then took me to the exit. I wasn’t paying attention because I was typing my goodbyes.
We were traveling in a car that had yellow and black checkers. He wasn’t driving; I don’t know who was. When I got to his shelf, aka home, there were no other computers.
After a little charging he downloaded some games on me, but he couldn’t play any because, like other people, he had trouble with me. I’m a glitchy computer. Then the man left and forgot to close me and my screen saver came on and I fell asleep.


















The next day, I woke up and it was black around me, I thought it was dark outside but, in a blink of an eye, I saw light. Out of nowhere, I noticed there were trash bags all around me. I was scared and i wanted to get out of this place.
I said, “I’m a computer! I can’t walk!”
So I waited.
Then I yelled, "Wait a second am I moving? I'm in a truck!" Then it got bumpy and I yelled, “HELP!” I still didn’t know where I was going. Just then, I saw a man empty trash cans into the truck. I realized I was going to the junkyard. Then I came to a stop.
“I’m here,” I said. “I want to go back to the electronic store.”
Just then, the back of the truck opened and I fell. All went black.
After a while, I woke up and said, “Is that a dog? It’s soooooo cute!” Bark, bark, bark!
“Ahhhhhhh! Help! It’s not cute!”
Then a big, tall man, with a beard appeared.
It was the
junk yard keeper!
