A small excerpt from what i think is going to be a novel im going to write…
Ian sensed something was wrong…He could see it written all over Rebecca’s face…But she didn’t want to tell him…Ian approached her and put his arms around her and…We interrupt this program for this breaking news…
The entire family screamed towards the television set…Why cut the show now when there was only a couple more minutes left into it…Rachel told her mum to calm down and listen what the newscaster was saying…Her dad on the other hand got up and left for the toilet…As they watched the news, the newscaster read out, "The Singaporean Government has declared war with Malaysia…Once again I repeat, the Singaporean Government has declared war with Malaysia…We will now go live to Putrajaya to get the latest updates from out correspondence there"
Rachel was shocked hearing that…Did she hear that right? Was it a scam, a joke? Her mum called her dad to rush from the toilet and watch…The phone rang next…Rachel picked it up…It was for her dad…He came and spoke…After a short conversation, he put the phone down and told them,"I have been called back…They need me…We’re going to war…"
Rachel could not believe what she was hearing from her dad…And why was Singapore going to have a war with Malaysia?…Rachel started crying…Her mum picked up the phone and started calling all their relatives in Malaysia…Rachel’s dad approached her…He gave her a hug and said everything is gonna be all right…"I dont like doing this but i have to do it," he said…But Rachel wasn’t really thinking of her dad going to war…She was more worried about her friends who have gone to study in Malaysia…
