One night I heard a gorilla under my bed so that day I decided to trap the gorilla. I got food from my fridge so the gorilla would be trapped. That night my mum put me to bed and said good night. At mid night I woke up and got the food from my fridge and did a trail of food from my bed to the playroom. The gorilla followed me then I looked at it from the playroom and it was cute. the next day I said to my mum can I keep it and she said yes.
