Sunny goes to the market and buys a basket of cherries. At home she opens the pack. Sunny washes all the cherries and she eats eight of them. She almost eats the ninth one, but it talks and says, “Hello Sunny.” Its voice sounds like a four-year-old child.
Sunny says, “Hello cherry.” Sunny eats the cherry. Now the cherry is inside Sunny’s stomach. Sunny drinks some water and sleeps on her bed. The next morning she looks in the mirror and there is a little green thing on her head and she screams. A branch with two little leaves grows from her head. Sunny touches her head and feels the plant. Sunny is afraid of the plant because she lives near a garden, and if the bees smell her head they will sting her.
Sunny goes to the hospital. The doctor uses a machine to see inside Sunny’s stomach. There is a seed. The doctor says, “Every single day you have to trim your leaves. If you don’t cut the plant on your head, you will die because there is poison in the plant.” Sunny drinks a lot of water everyday because she is thirsty and the plant keeps on growing. Every single day Sunny cuts the plant off her head.
A week later, Sunny goes to the market and buys some vegetables and fruits, and she sees her friend Fanny.
Sunny says, “Hello.”
Fanny says, “Hello.”
Sunny doesn’t want Fanny to see her head so she covers it with a hat.
Fanny says, “Why did you cover your head?”
“A plant is on my head,” Sunny says sadly.
“I have an idea.”
“What is it?”
“If you want that plant to be gone you have to say the magic word.”
“So, what is the magic word?”
“The magic word start with M,” says Fanny.
Sunny says, “Mango?”
“Yes.”
Sunny says, “Mango.”
Nothing happens.
Sunny goes to a flower shop to ask a florist for help. Lilies stand in pots by the door and the florist sits at a table in the corner. “Do you have some medicine to kill plants?” Sunny asks.Bees buzz outside the shop window and Sunny shakes.
“Yes,” says the florist. “I have some medicine for killing plants, but if you eat it your toenails will get dark.”
Sunny takes some plant killer home and she eats it. Right away, the plant dries up and dies but her toenails turn dark. She goes to the hospital. The doctor brings Sunny to a room and says, “Wait here until I come back.” Sunny waits and waits and waits. Finally the doctor comes back with seven chewy candies. “These are medicine,” the doctor says. “Each morning eat one.”
She eats the candy everyday. After a week the greyness on her toenails is gone.
