he would not eat his food

Usually, Terry would not eat because he was so weak. The constant coughs and splutters filled the air. Terry’s pounding headache was the only thing on his mind. “I….think…….i should go to the doctors,” stammered terry. So he decided to do just that.

Cautiously , Terry inched himself closer to the doctor’s. Shivering, Terry made his way there. When he finally arrived his legs were in agony. Luckly, the doctor's office was a soothing small pond.

The small pond -that was supposed to be the doctor's office -was filled with crystal clear, calm water. The rocks that surrounded the pond had a million mountain-like crevices. Terry could smell the sweet odor of a newly bloomed passion flower. The cool, refreshing water soothed terry’s aching legs.





Suddenly, an odd looking turtle boobbed up to the surface and spoke to terry. “ Well hello Terry,” said the turtle, “ I am your doctor.” Terry, looking very surprised, replied “ ok i am very unhealthy can you help me.” ( the turtle looked very understanding when he said this.) “of course let me get my things and i will be right with you,” said the doctor and he disappeared into the depths of the pond. Terry was very confused. This turtle was the strangest animal he had ever talked to. The turtle came back to the surface with a brown syrup that tasted revolting. After he took the brown syrup he felt lively and energetic but when he looked at his reflection in the water he saw a bright red tomato like blotches on his pale face.



The turtle offered Terry some cream for his face. There were two tubes, one was ruby red and the other was white as snow. Without thinking Terry put on the one in the red tube. But little did he know that it was red paint. He tried washing it off but it would not work and that is how the bald uakari got his red face.
