Once upon a time in a faraway land there was a girl with an evil step-sister and a really nice home. The nice girl was called Lennie and the evil step sister was called the \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcevil step-sister\u00e2\u20ac\u2122. One day the evil step sister heard the doorbell ring. She said to herself, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s probably a package for me.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lennie said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I will get it!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d The step sister said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153no I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll get it\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and she pushed Lennie out of the way. When the evil step sister opened the front door there was a large basket sitting on the doorstep. It had little chocolate Easter eggs inside and a little baby bunny rabbit with really long ears was curled up on top of them. The evil step sister screamed and immediately scrolled on her phone, googling a way to deal with this mess, probably looking for an exterminator!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The little bunny did cute little twitches and tiny little yawns and her floppy little ears flopped over her eyes. Flip flop flip flop. Twitch twitch. She began to hiccup and blow little Easter bubbles. Lennie, the nice sister picked up the bunny rabbit. She patted her on her back and said soothing words like her mummy would use with her. She whispered \u00e2\u20ac\u0153you poor thing, there, there, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s alright.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Excuse me\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, said a voice. Lennie looked down and saw the Easter Bunny who had magically appeared on the step.\u00e2\u20ac\u009dCan I have my baby back please? Mrs Easter bunny will not be happy with me that I forgot the baby bunny while delivering the Easter eggs.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Lennie had no words and immediately handed the baby back to her daddy.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Thank you, Happy Easter,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he said and he hopped away. Flip flop, twitch, twitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lennie looked at the evil step sister who had missed the whole thing as usual because she was too busy looking at her phone. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153How curious,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she said to herself. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Curious and curiouser\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The End<\/p>\n\n\n\n
