STORY STARTER
Inspired by Bri loves apples
Your 'emotions' are people living inside your body, who react to the situations you experience to ultimately decide how you feel about things.
Write a story where these 'emotions' are reacting to something you are experiencing. You could write it like a dialogue, or as a narrative of what they're doing to decide which emotion you feel.

Chocolate cake is happy. Watermelon is happy. Public speaking is anger....

“Those tests are not 100% accurat...
