I eventually gave up on sleep and started to read my grandmother's old diary that I kept with me.

My parents gave it to me a long time ago, hoping I could use it to try to make me and Autumn Leaf normal again.

Autumm Leaf was my twin sister. But she never really liked me or anyone else. She was always yelling at me.

One day she got so mad, she started to look almost. . . Evil. She told me she hated me and that it was my fault that everyone hated her.

Then she cursed me so that I would always be part evil like her and told me that one day, everyone I cared about would turn against me because of it.

I haven't seen her since.

"We need to plan what we are going to do next!" Golfball said, bringing me back to reality. I had no Idea what time it was.

"Why?" Pen asked

"Because I don't want to spend the rest of my life in this factory!"

Pen groaned.

"But it's in the middle of the night!"

"Actually, it's 10 AM." Golfball said.

"How do you know?"

"I have a clock."

Golfball pointed to an alarm clock that was right next to her sleeping bag with her foot.

How did I not notice that? I wondered.

"Now what should we do?" She said, looking at us.

"Sleep?" Pen said.

"Sleep?! You had all night to sleep!"

"Actually, I think Pen is right. I don't think anyone could get any sleep last night." I said.

"But if we don't . . ." Golfball didn't finish; she sat down and started crying. No one said anything.

I was amazed that Gelatin and Pencil were still asleep. Golfball was always either crying, or yelling.

Not knowing what else to do, I went back to reading my grandmother's diary.

The cure to the Evil curse, is a purely selfless act.

What kind of selfless act?

I sat there wondering what it could be.

I had tried everything, but no matter how nice I was, I still had the curse.

How did she know that was really the cure? I wondered.

As soon as I wondered what else the cure could be, I fell asleep.

That's a lot better than my first attempt at this chapter. :)

I'll write more tomorrow.

Next chapter is all about Golfball.
