Narrative

Today I was going to learn about the secret story. Who’s the secret? It was Kylie’s secrets and there were many problems in Kylie's family; for example, she not lived with her father, her mother’s new husband, etc. First, I studied the story by myself. Second, I shared the story with my partner and the teacher described about the story for us. Then, I would like to write the summary of this story part one and part two.

The summary part one
     Kylie feels leave out from her mother and Philip’s activities. She becomes interested in the chickens in the yard. Somehow, her secrets help her to feel less lonely. She finds a second egg and then finds out where others are being laid by an unhealthy-looking her. She saw another egg added to the nest up the back every day. Then, her secrets become the bigger every day. By the time, she left alone but she was happy. She like to sat on the fence and sharing the secrets with the hen. Sometime, she likes to see her photo album at the grapevines and missed her father.


The summary part two

        After, Kylie was forbidden to lift the lid. She thinks about it every time. And then, she began to lift the lid of the well. She climbs down to the well with her photo album every day. And every time that she saw her photo album, she thinks why her father and her mother did not live together with her. Moreover, when she looked at the only picture in her album, she held the picture close to her face. It made her confident and it stopped her from feeling lonely. By the time, on Sunday afternoon, Kylie lifted to the lid of the well as usual. Suddenly, Philip caught her and hit her. Then, Philip bought a padlock to lock the well. At dusk, she put the chicken and the hen into the cardboard box and dropped them down the well. Although, she will do it, but she cry. Then, she took her photograph the only one from its place in the album, and she cut off her head and poked it through a hole in the fly screen of the window.


My opinion:
        I feel sorry for Kylie because she is left out from mother and she feels alone.
        I disapprove of Kylie’s mother because she always didn’t care her daughter and she often left Kylie alone.
        I disapprove of Philip because he made Kylie feel alone.  
Symbols
        The eggs: Kylie’s secrets and they help her from feel lonely. Then, they were instead the new things in her life.
       The well: The well is the secret of place for Kylie.
        The photo album: this is a good remember about Kylie’s father.
        Kylie’s cutting her photo: she was destroying her happily remember.
     
        *If I were Kylie I will make a good thing, and I will try to join with mother’s activity. Then, I will be a good child. May be, I am going to live with my father.
