On that day I was the first one to go to school. I put my bag on my chair and I started to wait. Suddenly, I heard a noise saying “ Hey! Hey! Look here!” First I didn’t get it then I looked under my desk and what did I see? Oh that’s unbelievable! There was a frog and I fell down from my chair. I said: “ Did y-you just talk?” “Yes, I did. I’m your best friend John.” I was so surprised and said “Is that even possible?”
He said: It’s a long story. I’ll tell you after school but I need you to hide me in your bag.” I didn’t accept and said: “No, of course not. I won’t do that. He said: “Well, we don’t have many options. I realised I had to agree.

I took my bag and went to my room then I took John out and said: “Now it’ your turn. Tell me, how did you turn into a frog?”
(John)
“Well, I was too hungry. While I was searching for something to eat, I saw a really good apple tree. The apples were huge and bright. I just couldn’t stop myself from taking one apple and all of a sudden someone hit my head. As soon as I took a bite from the apple, I saw her. It was an old lady, she was very ugly and she had a lot of warts. She said: “ You just stole my apple you thoughtless teenager.” Then I apologized and said: “ I was too hungry. Please, forgive me.” She said: No. What you did is unforgivable.” Then she started shaking her wand and turned me into a frog. I understood that she was a witch.
(ME): So, this is your story.
(John): Yes.
(ME): Did she say anything about how to fix the situtation?
(John): No, she didn’t.
(ME): So, we can go and ask.
(They went to the witch’s garden.)

I knocked her door. She opened and said: “Sorry. I don’t sell spells this month. I said:” We didn’t come to buy spells. She said: “Then what?” I showed her John the frog and said: We want to make him human again. She said: “Oh, he is the one who stole from me.” I said: “Yeah. He apologizes. He didn’t know that the tree was yours. Is there anything we can do to fix him. She said: “Yes. There is actually a way.” I started to laugh. I said: “Please say it. We are ready to do whatever you want.” She said: “Well im a lonely witch living at the end of the street. I don’t know how to love. I will turn him into human if you teach me. John said: “Obviosly not. I prefer living as a frog than teaching you.” Then I convinced him. For a month we taught her everyting. After a month she turned John to his real shape. We still talk about the amazing story. Tuna Talha BEKTAŞ-7th Hunters
