Title: The Talking Goldfish

Just a few weeeks ago, my mother and I went to a pet shop to buy fish for my new tank. At first, I wanted to look at all the varieties. We looked at salt-water fish. I wanted to buy a brown and yellow eel, but my mother said "No way! That will get twice as big as your father. Not only that, the price is forty dollars." So the eel was out of the question. Then I wanted to get a pistol shrimp. My mother objected once again. "We can't buy poor helpless goldfish and feed it to that thing!" Then we looked at freshwater fish. As soon as we reached a large goldfish with large bulgy eyes it started talking to me. It said "Buy me, buy me!" It was a beautiful goldfish. The goldfish was a brilliant orange with white spots. I called my mother over and said "How about this one?" She asked "Why this particular fish?" "It talked to me." I answered. Then as if on cue the goldfish looked at my mother and said, "Hi!"
