Exposition:
The story is about my family and I moving from Lima, Peru, to Iquique, Chile. It wasn’t my first time moving, but this time I understood where I was going. I was moving with my parents, but not with my two dogs; I could only take Pluto, so I left Jupiter with my grandparents. Everything felt different; I was excited, but also nervous about starting a new life in another country.
Attack Point:
The main problem I faced was adjusting to a completely different life. Even though everyone spoke the same language, it was still difficult. My goal was to find a sense of happiness and peace, even though I missed my old life.
Rising Action:
Rising Action One
When I arrived in Iquique, everything felt strange. I didn’t know anyone. People spoke the same language, but with a completely different accent than the one I knew. Starting a new school felt magical at first because I met many new friends, although there were some classmates who weren’t pleasant, but I was able to understand that this is part of growing up.
Rising Action Two
After a few months in Iquique, my family and I traveled to Lima, and we had to leave Pluto in someone’s care while we were away. Upon returning from the trip, I received the sad news: Pluto was lost! I felt sad because he was part of my family. After the incident, my parents decided it was best not to bring Jupiter with us for fear of the same thing happening.
Climax:
The hardest moment came when I realized I had lost my two dogs, who were my family. Pluto forever, and Jupiter because he stayed in Lima. I had to face the loss and accept that my life had completely changed. I understood that not everyone stays with you forever; sometimes you have to let go.
Falling Action:
As time passed, I began to adapt to my new life in Iquique. I began to feel comfortable and accept the truth. Then my little brother, Lucas, was born, bringing great happiness to my entire family.
Resolution:
In the end, I realized that although I lost a part of myself when I moved, I gained many new experiences, memories, and people who care about me. The change was painful, but it helped me grow stronger.
