The storm

It was a foggy day on the town of Riverdale and there was no one in the streets. The haze
wrapped the houses and the freezing weather iced up the cars. An ambient of sadness and
creepiness filled on the streets. Suddenly, the wind became a storm. The rain hit the windows
making the outside invisible.

The storm lasted until the next day. In the morning, the street was totally destroyed by the rain,
and some cars had some paint removed. Suddenly, Olivia, a brave girl went out to the street and
with waiting eyes she started observed the scenario. She had never seen anything like this before,
it wasn’t normal.

In the afternoon, she decided to investigate the strange storm of the previous night. She started to
search the park, but she didn’t find anything. She went to the abandoned factory. She checked
every square meter of the building, and when she got to the chimneys she saw something strange.
An iPad with a video on it. The video said:

“Climate change is becoming more frequent in several areas of the world. Yesterday in the village
of Riverdale, a terrible storm took place. And there will be more if pollution does not stop”
So, it wasn’t a paranormal situation, it was because of pollution. Olivia was paralyzed. She had her
eyes wide open.

She stayed like that for a few minutes and then, as slowly as snail she walked back home.

“From now on” she said “I’m going to try to convince everyone to recycle”

And that’s what she did.
