Once upon a time there was a little girl named Kate. She said, helow Malik and I said hi Kate. She said I don’t want to be your friend anymore. So I said “Why” so she said because you’re a “Chicken.” So I went to get my chicken mask. And said Cluck, cluck and Bak, Bak chicky chicky.

Kate laughed and then she asked if I wanted to go to the park. She gave me a raspberry. I took it and ate it. “Why did you eat my raspberry punk?” and I said I’m not a punk I’m a chicken.
The end.

What is your name? What is your favorite color?
What is your house? What is your home?
What are you? Who are you? Where do you come from?

You can get more candy when you trick or treat in Westwood in the suburbs.
1. You can stay late and get more without paying
2. Every house has decorations and people are there
3. Some people leave candy in a bowl on the porch, so you can take as much as you want.
