How The Spark Soda Changed My Life

Improved Essays
The sun had risen to commence the birth of a new day. Life initiated as a typical morning. I sat in a confined box with the rest of the Spark Soda cans. All of a sudden, we were being jostled around. The cans and I were nervous. We were finally going to be able to gawk at the outside world. I was new to world, so it had to be interesting, and it had to be better than what I expected.

Each Spark Soda was thrusted into a tiny space in a freezing box. I was implanted in front making me the first victim. A man in a nice business attire seized me tightly. He damaged me, but I was remaining optimistic about the world. The man dumped me in a plastic, blue bag. My patience level quickly flourished. He drank every last sip of me and was not appreciative.
