[align=center][div style="bgcolor= black; width: 45%; font-family: times new roman;font-size:13px;text-align:justify;text-indent: 30px;"]It seemed as though many of the children of Roxanne and Diya liked to go out and explore, liked to try and find things that would be interesting to others. While Finnegan liked to find seashells out on the shore, something that was often in abundance and gave that satisfaction of being able to collect as many as you liked, Torsten's thoughts on what he wanted to collect frustrated him. He liked the shells of turtles, and things shaped like turtles. So far, all he had found was a small rock shaped similarly enough like a turtle that he had decided to keep it, wrapped around in twine and loosely hung around the boy's neck, but he was always on the hunt for a turtle in and of itself, and it seemed harder and harder to find one.
It was easy to find things that were green like a turtle. Leaves, ferns, seashells, etc. and so on, but it made it difficult to find an actual turtle, and it frustrated Torsten more than anything had ever frustrated him so far in his three months of living, which wasn't saying much to someone older, but it said a lot to the boy.
He was about to give up with a frustrated sigh before a small gasp left him, the sight of a turtle shell in the distance, and his hopes rose high, and then he got close and the hope faded. He still liked the shell before him, and was going to keep it, but it was empty, left long ago from a turtle that had lost its life, and Torsten wanted to cry out, the built up frustration finally getting to him. So he did, and tears began to fall as he clutched the turtle shell in his paws.
