Once Upon a Time at Emma and Matthew's Wedding
2
3
Once upon a time 5 children Zoe, Maxine, Nando, Minnie and James were invited to Emma and Matthew's wedding which sounded really exciting and it was for the first 3 hours but
after that ...

First of all there were no balloons; no party games - not even pass the parcel and no party food.
Then there were so many people they did not know some wanting to hug and kiss them; some asking the same questions:
how old are you and
do you go to school and
where do you go to school and
what grade are you in and
what is your favourite subject at school

As a teenager Zoe did not consider herself a child and was sick of being treated like one and told her parents if
she was put at the children's table she would
just refuse to sit there.
Even though her parents promised to pre-order her an iPhone 7 with the force-touch sensing features of the Apple Watch if she behaved at the wedding right now it did not seem worth it.
It was 8.46pm and she asked her parents (for the fourth time) if they could leave yet - the answer was still no - but I'm so bored and ... at that moment the lights went out.

'Ouch ,' crash; the room went really quiet for about 10 seconds then everyone started talking all at once.
A voice said 'ladies and gentleman we are sorry for this interruption please remain where you are and the lights will be back on shortly'.
The little children started to cry.
The voice spoke again ' we have been advised the power will be out for at least six hours perhaps all night'.
It was pitch black; no moon nothing out of the windows but blackness; it felt cold too; they shivered.

Then a little voice - Minnie started to sing
Twinkle, twinkle little star
how I wonder what you are
Up above the world so high,
like a diamond in the sky
And everyone else started to sing
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
how I wonder what you are!

And then Nanado sang
Alice the camel has five humps
Alice the camel has five humps
Alice the camel has five humps
So go, Alice, go
