Chapter 1: Attack of Corona Virus

When Jackie eventually looked up she couldn't believe who she saw standing in front of her. That person wore a police uniform and a blue mask, so of course he's a professional police officer. But unfortunately, Jackie was puzzled as she found it was absolutely UNBELIEVABLE why the police blocked her way to the restaurant. Although Jackie was shy, she tried to ask curiously: 

Jackie *curiously*: Excuse me, can you move away and let me pass? Or didn't I breaking the traffic rules?

The policeman furiously shouted:

Policeman: DISTANCE!

Jackie moved backwards, then repeated her own question:

Jackie *sigh*: Fine. Now can you move away and remove these fence to let me go inside that restaurant? 

The policeman immediately answered in an easy way:

Policeman *politely*: You didn't. But my apologise Madam, you shouldn't have come here. This is restaurant will be closed for 2 weeks!

Jackie: Why? Show me the evidence, as this is where my cousin works and I'm starving! 

Police officer *lost patience*: For more details, read that sign. This area is isolating. 

Jackie: Really? If I'm not bothering you, tell me why it is closed?

Police officer: Sure, but before that, you should test covid, because I saw you kept sneezing and coughing. Didn't you forget to wear your face mask before going out? 

Jackie *nervously*: Uh-oh..

Police officer: Fine, so you must fill this list your information, including your phone number then go straight to that testing area. The results will be sent on midnight, or early tomorrow. Follow the instructions, then everything will be Okay.

After hearing that, Jackie was almost getting bent out of shape. She walked along the streets towards the area.

--------------------After testing--------------------

Manager: Thanks for coming, the free trial day test of yours has ended. Go home and access our website for the latest news of COVID-19. Now you can go home.

She took her bike and cycled home lonely. But her nonsense thought has changed while riding. She saw the militaries giving vegetables to neighbors for free and she became more grateful to the defenders of COVID-19. 'Or I'd better help them one future day as well', she thought.

--------------------At 12p.m-------------------- 

Jackie was awaken by the message. She felt nervous and checked the phone to see if she was positve or not.

But unfortunately, instead of being negative, Jackie was... POSTIVE!

Jackie *screaming*: No! This can't be! Oh God, am I having a nightmare or it is real?

Hannah, her sister, ran inside her bedroom, asked why she was screaming. Jackie retold and read aloud the E-message. Hannah comforted:

Hannah: Don't worry.. I will take you to the hospital and meet Henry. He will help you with the vaccine and medicine. Oh, and we need his advise, too. 

Jackie: What about James? He had a COVID and I can't phone him because mine was switched off.

Hannah: No problem. He is negative now. Remebering the 5K rules is important. So sleep, you need to rest. I will help you tomorrow..

 

 

Chapter 2: A new hope

--------------------The following morning--------------------

Military: *knocking at the door*: Hello?

Hannah: Who's knocking?

Military: Go outside and see. 

Hannah opened the window and was suprised. She started bursting into tears.

Hannah: Thank you for these vegetables and bread, I hope you and your friends would succeed in denfending COVID-19. 

Military: It's my pleasure, hand by hand we can defeat the virus. I'd like to sent best regards to your positive sister.

Jackie was still reading the breaking news for more information. But the more she read it, the more she became more responsible for not wearing her face mask.

Suddenly, Hannah quickly ran inside her sister's bedroom, tried to cheer her up:

Hannah: I'm glad now, you now have a bottle of Astra vaccine and some medicine. We don't need to buy one from Dr.Henry anymore.

Jackie: Yeah..

--------------------A few days later--------------------

Jackie was cured and she was half - excited, half - sad. Hannah decided to get her a drink when Jackie stopped her and advised:

Jackie: Nah, better protect ourselves from COVID, that's the only way to rock it.

Hannah: I was just pretending. I'm glad that now you are even more careful with the devil today.

Jackie: Now there's only 1 problem.

Hannah: Go ahead.

Jackie: Maybe let's order some face masks, soap and test sticks. Don't forget to share some. And.. I'd like to go back with my charity work and help people who are in needed. 

 

Chapter 3: The Rise of the defenders of COVID-19

--------------------3 years passed--------------------

Jackie was whole-hearted philanthropist and she traveled around the world giving food, masks and soap. Sometimes she was positive but then everything became normal again by the help of doctor Henry. But happiness wasn't long when her uncle, Henry died of illness. So she went back home and became the next well-known doctor to make a tribute to her dearing uncle in the heaven.

And Hannah, she became a nurse to help Jackie in defeating COVID-19. She had lots of vaccines with her to work every time without resting ( except for Sunday ). She enjoyed the work really much and kept expanding her business with other people.

One Sunday..

They were walking in the park for sunlight and resting under a tree.

Jackie: How's your sallary this month?

Hannah: Pretty much. One thousand dollars. And yours?

Jackie: Not much, but enough for the living.

Hannah: That's good. James, our cousin is in university. I wonder what he gonna do in the future. Maybe a policeman.

Jackie: I hope so. This might be the best moment of my life because I have never had a helping hand before.

Hannah: Oh good, thanks to God..

Jackie: What are you talking about.

Hannah: You see, read it..

Jackie took Hannah's phone and read the breaking news. It talked about the COVID patients, and 'that was such a small number of people who had a COVID', she thought. 

Hannah continued:

Hannah: How was it? 

Jackie: Cool. Quite attractive, with lots of viewers.

Hannah: This is the way, but we still have to be careful. Want a cool drink before returning home?

Jackie: Certainly. 

 

Chapter 4: The Virus strikes back

James graduated universtiy but he couldn't be a policeman because he wasn't fast enough. But he was wise and had a well knowledge so his job was a scientist, and from that day on he started to study about the vaccines for kids and the virus. He was glad that he had that job. His hobby was reading more science books. Unfortunately, one day, he found something unwell, so he went to the hospital to see his relatives. He shouted: 

James *shouting*: HEY.. I think I found something..

Hannah *ignoring*: We can meet on Sunday, not now..

Jackie: Agree. Better go back to your laboratory, next time don't shout.

James: Nope, there's something worse.

Hannah: Go ahead, but faster, I'm busy.

James: There's the new strain of COVID-19! Beleive it?

Hannah: Show us then, this might be impossible.

James: No jokes this time, I found someone's death was in vain. When I checked out it was definitely COVID-19, but in another size and shape.

Jackie: That's dangerous. We might need more doctors in the academy. So warn everyone not to pet or eat a Chinese bat.

Hannah: Take care.

James went back with his work and tried his best for more information.

Chapter 5: The Vaccine awakens

James' brother was Luke. If James was a scientist then so did Luke. Together, Luke and James started finding a type of vaccine which could cure the COVID-19 virus for kids, but it was still puzzling them.

They started focusing on vaccine for adults and researching if there was a type of kids' vaccine.

Unfortunately, luck didn't follow them. Sometimes they got the wrong instruction and their  work exploded in their laboratory.

Luke: Ouch.. That's terrible..

James: Did we get the correct equipment? Should we check it out?

Luke: Definitely yes. But give me a second.. Did you remember what are the typical side effects of this virus?

James: Check it out, I only remember headache, chills and fever.

Finally, they found a type of vaccine for students who are over 15 years old. Although getting one for kids between 5 and 11 years old are still puzzling them, they were excited that this was a big success.
