The after life of a terrapin
MG: Oh, I'm so sad. 4D is dead.
JC: Ya, me too.
GT: Hmmm...Shall we bury it?
JC: Ok. But where?
MG: How about outside our office, at the small patch of land?
GT: Ok. But how are we going to dig a hole?
JC: Erhm, we can use the plastic spoon from our pantry...
MG: But it'll break easily.
JC: That's true. Why don't we bury it here? *Opens back door leading to a small courtyard*
GT: Oh ok. Then 4D will be closer to us.
MG: Is there soil?
*JC & GT ignores her stupid question*
GT: Ok, shall we do it now, since there's no one else in the office?
JC: Ok.
MG: But wait...It's already 5.25pm.
GT: Oh no, time to go home.
JC: But what about 4D?
MG: Ya, we can't possibly keep it till Monday.
GT: Can we put it into a box first?
JC: Then it'll start rotting and stink up the whole place!
MG: That's true...Then how?
GT: Shall we just throw it into the dustbin in the toilet?
MG & JC: *after 2 secs of deep thought* Ok!
So all three girls took the dead terrapin, brought it to the nearest toilet, wrapped it in toilet paper, and dumped it into the dustbin.
Talk about mourning.
