"The Sunshine Monster" by Chris Darby

Once upon a time, there was a student named Tyrone Biggems. Tyrone was considered the new kid on the block. During his first day of school, he became friends with everyone and everyone enjoyed his presents. The day seemed to be going well until he walked into her classroom.

There was nothing but sunshine, flowers and pretty rainbows with her. She is the kindest and sweetest teacher you’ll ever know. When forced to face her it feels as if she’s slowly sucking away any and all happy emotions you may have right out of your body. As Tyrone entered her classroom he noticed how every student looked as if their spirits were taken from them. The sight of this reminded Tyrone of a horror movie he seen three weeks before, where everyone was flesh eating zombies looking for brains.

After quietly working, Tyrone finished his first day project and raised his hand. As the sunshine monster approached, Tyrone saw how drained of spirit everyone became as she passed by, “are you done Mr. Biggems”, she asked sweetly. Her sweet talking makes you feel like a little kid who just got a blue ribbon for a crappie finger painting. Tyrone for sure believed that she must of done sum psychedelic drugs back in her time which made her this way.

As the day came to a close, Tyron realized that the happier someone is the sadder you may become depending on how you deal with it. Although she wasn’t necessarily a monster, the thought of her happiness made everyone fear her. Therefore, she will always be known as the Sunshine Monster.
