Rosie and Mary

Once upon a time there lived two women who were best friends since their childhood. They had done everything together from as long as they had known such as shopping, studying, and even going on vacation. One day, one of the women, Mary, decided that she was getting tired of her friend Rosie. She then decided to make a few new friends.

Rosie got very angry at Mary. She wanted to be Mary’s one and only friend. Rosie and Mary got into a huge fight, and eventually Mary just left Rosie.

Mary went off and made tons of new friends. She became very popular. She didn’t know that she could have so many friends at one time!! She had been hanging out with Rosie her whole life and since people didn’t really like Rosie, they had never gotten to know her. So Mary then spend 10 more years of her life, with her new friends, leaving Rosie forgotten. Sometimes she got lonely, and thought about how Rosie would have been with her right then, but for the most part she was happy.

Rosie on the other hand was furious with her friend. She thought that it was all Mary’s fault that things ended up the way they did. She spend the next 10 years of her life in a very depressed stage. However, she never did learn how to take the blame for the mistakes she made.

One day, as Mary was heading to the grocery store to pick up a few things she ran into Rosie. She decided to go say hi to her. As soon as Rosie saw Mary she started yelling and throwing things in every direction. Mary didn’t know how dramatically Rosie had changed since the time they were friends, and she became very frightened. Mary ran away.

After Mary ran away, Rosie was in the worst shape that she had ever been in. She realized that she should have talked to her instead of getting angry at her. She also knew that she shouldn’t have been so selfish. Since Rosie felt really bad and wished things could have turned out better between them, Rosie made a constellation in the sky of her and Mary. You can still see this constellation today. If you look up into the sky during the winter on a clear night, and look to the East, you will see star Mary, which is Mary’s head. Right next to star Mary, you will find star Rosie, which is Rosie’s head. The rest of their bodies are right below their heads. The two constellations have 34 stars included in them.
