The Day I Turned My Friend Into a Blueberry

Revenge will be sweet when you get a taste of your own medicine, I thought I tried or to watch TV but your bouncing around made it impossible to concentrate.

I was digging through the fridge like a hungry lion looking for it’s prey.  I found a pack of blueberries waiting to be eaten.  In the hole, I slid in blue food colouring.  Nadirah was watching TV; she didn’t notice me.  I took the blueberries to her.

Nadirah popped the blueberry into her mouth.  Slowly, she started chewing while I stared at her.  She felt the sensation trickling down her throat.  As time went by, I could see it spreading across her teeth.  It was working!   “Nadirah, what’s happening to your nose?” I shouted.   “It’s turning blue!  Your nose is turning blue like a blueberry!”

“What do you mean?  I’m fine,” replied Nadirah.

“Y…your cheeks, they’re blushing blue!” I screamed.  “Now your chin is turning blue.  Oh no, your face!  Even your hair!”

“Stop lying, get out of the jokes world!” Nadirah said.

“You should check yourself,” I said.

“Ok, I’ll check,” Nadirah said.  “OMG!!!  You’re not joking!”  Oh no, what will her parents think about this?

“Aaisha, what are you doing?  Are you trying to poison me?” shouted Nadirah.  I ran to the kitchen heartbroken checking the packaging of the blue ‘food’ colouring.  It wasn’t blue FOOD colouring, it was just colouring.  What!!! 50% of Nadirah dying.  Oh no!  What have I done?
