Writing HW week #5

An alternate story of The Monkey Paw, called The Magic Cookie.
There was a family, the Whites. The family were Mr. and Mrs. White, and their daughter Herberta.
One day, Mr. White was playing Wii with Herberta. He lost and Mrs. White came to tell him it was ok and that he could win next time. He asked Herberta if she wanted to meet Morris, Sheriff Major Morris, and old friend. He said whatever, but Mrs. White didn't say that. She didn't like Morris at all. She said he hated that homo look on his face, the way he walked and everything. But, Morris came along, and they let him in.
He talked about some magic cookies that had a spell put upon them by "an old fucker, a very holy man." Morris said that he had already had his three wishes granted (which are unknown). He also said that he was the second person using the cookie. The Whites didn't believe in that. But still, Mr. White wanted to keep the cookie. Morris taught him how to use it and reminded him to wish for something sensible.
After seeing that Herberta had no future in life and that she only wanted to play Wii, Mr. White wished for success and money in her daugher's life by using the cookie.
To make a long story short, Herberta ended up taking and selling drugs to get money and success. Mr and Mrs White used the cookie again to wish rehabilitation for her. Dagoberto, a lawyer in charge of a Rehab Center, took Herberta away. Mrs. White couldn't stand being so far from her daughter so she tried to wish her back with the last wish, but the cookie was gone. The dog had eaten it and apparently wished for a female dog. THAT'S IT FOR THE STORY.
