It was a normal Saturday morning. Kevin was lying quietly on his bed working on his homework from his Advanced Senior English Class. As he was thinking he took a bite out of his blueberry muffin. Right then he heard a knock at the door. He raced down to the door, and when he opened it, all he found was a note that read: “Meet me at the peak if you want to see it again. From Joe.” As Kevin finished, he heard a loud bang upstairs. He sprinted up to his room to find his window open. As he looked out of it, he saw Joe speeding away in his ’69 Mustang. On his way out he grabbed his coat and tried to grab his muffin, but it was gone!
He got in his mom’s minivan and drove up to the peak. While driving he contemplated why Joe would be doing this to him. Then it clicked. The next week Kevin was taking Karen to the Homecoming Dance, and Joe has been obsessed with Karen since first grade. As he pulled up to the peak and got out of his van, he saw Joe standing next to his Mustang at the top of a tall hill which led to a gigantic cliff. Kevin immediately noticed that the only thing keeping his car from hurling off the cliff, was a decent sized rock underneath one of the front tires. He also noticed that strapped to the hood was a little whitish ball. As he moved closer he realized that the lump was his muffin!
“Don’t come any closer, or else,” yelled Joe.
“Give it to me, jerk,” exclaimed Kevin.
“Only if you promise to cancel your date with Karen, and never ask her on one again.”
The Essay on Field Of Dreams Shoeless Joe
A Second Look At "Field of Dreams " This was a story about how acting upon impulse, or doing something upon a gut feeling can become a good thing. This was a story about how change, mystery and even dreams changed the life of one stubborn man, a man who was afraid of not changing. Ray Kinsella, the main character in this story hears a voice while he is surveying his corn fields, which says "If you ...
“You wish. I’m not going to, so give it back to me and stop being dumb.”
“Only if you do what I told you to.”
“You have five seconds before I come take it,” remarked Kevin impatiently.
“Not going to happen.”
“Fine here I come!”
Kevin started sprinting toward Joe and the car, but as soon as he got within ten yards Joe kicked the rock out from under the tire! The car was now speeding down the hill! Kevin knew he had to think fast, and he kept running at it. As he was almost to it, he realized that he could still save it and stop it from falling off the edge of the cliff. Right before the car fell off, Kevin dove, rolled across the hood, and fell off again. The car flew off the edge and exploded into flames as it smashed into the ground at the bottom.
Kevin was on his knees with his hands covering his face. Joe watched with a satisfied smirk on his face.
“Yes, I got it!” screamed Kevin, startling Joe.
“What are you so happy about, I win,” said a confused Joe.
Right then Kevin stood up. He was holding the muffin!
“This is why I’m so happy. I got my muffin back. You thought you beat me. Ha! Think again, loser,” exclaimed Kevin in a prideful manner.
“No! I can’t believe you win again. You got Karen and the muffin. I’ll get you for this,” screamed Joe as he sprinted away down the hill.
Kevin got in his van and drove home satisfied, enjoying every crumb of his well-earned muffin on the way.
