Every cloud has a silver lining. For example, even the worst-smelling farts will fill the prettiest balloons.

:) Hey...


Ok, first thing's first. Did you mean to spell everything incorrectly?

Also the punctuation is non-existant in some areas, :).

It's short...and I really have no feelings for any of the characters. I don't understand the plot, or crux yet...etc.

Maybe some expansion would benefit this...?

Even if you did mean the spelling mistakes, I'd fix them. It's terrible and it makes it so hard to read.

Work on it :)

Peace V :P

From what you tell me it will turn out to be a very good story...
But you REALLY need to fix your grammar.
also Guy13 called me and told me this:
"Tell ink that I just really can't spell."...

Hey guy13, this is just a future reference for dialogue punctuation for your future stories. :)

Keep writing and best of luck.

I've kept everything the same except spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors. Once you've got it, then writing will faster and more enjoyable for you...even more than it is now :)


"So, what is it?" asked Jacobe as he looked at the present his father had bestowed upon him.

"Anything you want it to be...just love, yourself,and your family," his father said as he closed his eyes forever.

***

(They were) His father's last words - Jacobe's father had died that morning.

Three months later, Jacobe still had the ring. He had never taken it off.

"What's up Jay?" That was his friend, Kate. "You look down."

"It's just-"

"The dad thing buggin' you?"

"Yeah."

That was Kate, always had a backstage pass to your head.

"You have to let it go, Jay! You've been like this for, like, three months now! You used to be all happy-go-lucky and now your all, like, gloom 'n' doom Emo king!"

"Kate I ..."

"No, get over it! Now!"

"Yes, Supreme Overlord."

"You better believe it!" said Kate. "Will you please get over the past?"

"Alright, alright! Sheesh," said Jacobe.

"Mail call for Jacobe Smith?" said a man.

"Right here!" said Jacobe. "Do you need my.....? Oh my god, that was fast. He's gone already!"

"Well," said Kate. "What is it?"

"A map."

"A map?"

"Yep, just a map."

"Big whoop."

"Totally." But little did Jacobe know, this was a very big deal.

***

English class - world's least favorite subject - and as far as Jacobe was concerned...well...
"This has done gotta be the worstest subject ever!"

See what I mean? The world of English does not smile on the poor boy.

"Pst, pst, Jacobe!" said Kate. "Wake up! English is over!"

"You mean the torture chamber is emptying?" said jacobe.

"Yes, you idiot. Oh, and newsflash - test on Monday! Retard!"

"Oh, crap!"

"Yes, oh crap!"

The bold words need correcting. There's some other capitalising mistakes in other places but you can find them.
Be carefull with spelling and capitalizing names !! Run a spellcheck over it before you post, I advice.
Overall it's not bad, but due to its shortness it is difficult to get a sense of what the characters are like. I'd advise you to extend the story.
Keep writing!
