It was Christmas eve and Scrooge worked at his office wit his clerk Bob Cratchit. Scrooge had a small fire, but Bob had an even smaller! Then two men came into the office.
"Good evening sir"said one of the men
"Good evening gentlemen" Scrooge said.
"Are you Mr Scrooge or Mr Marley?"they asked.
"Mr. Marley's been dead seven years now"Scrooge answered
"Would you like to offer some money to the poor?"asked the men
"No!"said Scrooge
Then the men left and his nephew came.
"Merry Christmas! God bless us!"said the nephew.
"Humbug! Christmas is nonsense!"Scrooge shouted.
After that Scrooge's nephew went away and then Bob asked Scrooge if he could see his family,because the next day would be Christmas day. Scrooge let Bob see his family only for that night. He said to Bob that he must be at the office early in the morning.

Scrooge lived at a house in an old neighborhood with no life. He opened the door and suddenly Marley's ghost appeared. It was ca rrying five heavy stones .
"Don't be like me" it said.
After that Scrooge went to bed and the ghost of the Christmas past appeared. It looked like a child. Scrooge followed it. They went to the village that Scrooge grew up. Scrooge was all alone. Then they went to the restaurant that Scrooge met his wife. After that the ghost disappeared as quickly as it appeared.
