BR5 : The Chalk Circle

At the lunch time, Amy left her mp3 player which she got for her birthday on the bench. Amy looked everywhere, but she could not find one. but on the way home, she saw Zae holding her mp3 player. she shouted at her 'hey! it is my mp3 player!' then the officer Day walked past. after she figured what was happening, she suggested them to get into the circle she drew by big chalk. then told them to pull the earphone as hard as they can. then the one pull the player out of the circle, the person can keep the mp3 player. but Amy worried about breaking it half, so she told Zoe to keep the player. then the officer said 'Amy can keep the player'. Zoe asked for reason. because Amy cares about the player more answered the officer. at the end of the story, Zoe told Amy that she is sorry.
i did not enjoy this story that much. i think Zoe could still care about the player. i wonder why did not the officer call their parents about the mp3 player. so Zoe's parents would have known what she has done.
