It was a normal sunny day at the San Diego zoo , Jedi the giraffe was playing with the others as happy as can be. He was playing tag with Tammy and Jack, his two best friends. The kids mom’s Suzie and Martha who are also giraffes, were relaxing by the watering hole. Tammy and Jack were Jedi’s only friends because all the others just stared and laughed a Jedi for having a short neck and Jedi was fine with that, he was fine with only having two friends. They were as close as three peas in a pod. It was late one summer night, long past Jedi’s bedtime, when Jedi and Jack went to play in the watering hole. There was no sound. The others were as still as statues. The moon was so lively it seemed as if you could just grab it straight from the sky.

“Today is a very special day at the zoo,” explained Jedi’s mom.
“Today the zoo announced over the loudspeakers that a new baby giraffe will be born and become one of us.”
Jedi was filled with excitement, he couldn’t wait to meet the baby. There were roaring crowds everywhere just waiting for that new baby. You could hear the crowd, as if it was concert everyone was waiting for. Jedi ran off with Jack and Tammy to go think of names for the new baby, all they could come up with was Pickle. When the kids came back to check if it had been born yet they realized that they couldn’t see anything, just the back of thousands of heads. Jedi started to panic he couldn't see anything at all due to his short neck.

He started to wonder where his mom went. He tried to get through the crowd, but it was like no one cared. He pushed himself into the crowd and started to look for his mom. He wondered if his mom was in the middle of the crowd looking at the baby, so with all of his force he pushed a bit more and all that did was get him closer to the baby. That’s not what he wanted. He wanted to find his mom more than anything in the world.

He started to ask people if they had seen his mother but all they would say is
‘’Sorry I haven’t seen her’’
he spent several slow hours asking people but it was hard because everyone was screaming and it was hard to ask the question. Everyone lead to more panicking. He didn’t give up and kept looking for his mother. He’s stomach started to hurt and his heart was beating fast. Jedi was as helpless as a newborn kitten.

has anyone seen my mom?

Eventually jedi makes his way over to Mrs. Martha who always knows where everyone goes. And she tells Jedi the most devastating news he’s ever heard, Martha sat Jedi down and told him that his mother was transported to the other side of the zoo to get a special treatment done to cure her sickness. Jedi knew that his mother was sick but he didn’t know how bad it was. Poor Jedi spent the the next two days worried sick about his mother.

your mom is sick

Not only that but for the next two days the zoo was packed full of local reporters, crying babies, yelling crowds, and worst of all, no mother to calm Jedi down. Jedi was as stressed as Parents on tax day.

After Jedi is told that he can go see his mom he is relieved and felt as if a fifty pound weight had been lifted off his shoulders that they will be reunited again. While he is walking towards the other side of the zoo he thought to himself’’ I knew she was sick , but not so sick that she had to get moved .” once he got to where his mother was staying he could already feel a tear on his cheek from joy. He ran up and jumped into his mom’s arms and hugged her very tight. It reminded him of the time when he had a bad dream and his mom hugged him so tight he couldn’t breath.

MOM!!!
