Read the given summary of events, and write a longer story which covers everything described in the summary. The story you write should be longer than the summary you read, but should not repeat itself. The story should be made up of sentences which form a cohesive and logical sequence of events, and should be long enough to fill two or more paragraphs. Do not omit any details which were given by the summary. Make the story such that the summary is an accurate characterization of the paragraphs you write. Adding extra details in your story which are not mentioned in the summary is okay as long as they don't contradict anything in the summary.

My Dad got dementia after living with my parents and children for 3 years. We moved out on bad terms. Then he passed away while we were not in contact.
My Dad passed away... I miss him every day. I regret not talking to him the last few months of his life. I should have took into consideration more what was going on with him and been more understanding. It was a big mistake on my part. My Dad was a kind and loving man, and I feel like I let him down. He never got to meet my daughter after she was born. The most memorable event was the last time I saw him, we drove off in the van and he was just sitting in his wheelchair in the driveway, glaring at us. He was happy that we were leaving because he thought we were overreacting about what he had done and said. He started to get REALLY mean to my 2.5 year old son and would say terrible things to him when he wouldn't listen. I'll never forget his facec as we drove off. I think about it all the time. I wish I could tell him that I'm sorry and that I love him. I was so shocked when I got the phone call. We visit his grave in Redmond all the time, but now it's almost winter so we will have to wait a bit. He meant so much to my son, now Malakai says "Grandpa is in the stars!". It breaks my heart. We were not expecting him to pass so suddenly, he had a heat failure. I wish I could have been thee with my Mom when it happened, she was all alone.

I reconnected with a girl that I had had an on-off relationship with and we both went to a theme park together for a day. It was a fun and memorable experience for both of us, and at the end, a romance began anew.
About three weeks ago I went to the theme park with a girl that I reconnected with, we had an on-off relationship together, so it was easy for us to feel comfortable with each other like old times. We spent the day riding some rides together. We had made a deal with each other that she would choose a ride, then I would get to choose a ride and we both would ride them together. We laughed with each other the whole time. It was like old times. It was so good to feel that feeling again that we once shared together. It made we wonder why we both never tried making our relationship last. Throughout the day we grew closer to one another. She began to open up to me and we decided that we try and make it work out again. Now that we both know we want each other in our lives we made a promise that we would both give it our all. We decided to have some lunch, so I took her to the side of the park that had a nice view, laid a blanket down, and told her I would be right back with our food. I went to get our food and stopped by a booth that was selling flowers. I thought she would like it if I surprised her with them. I was walking back to where she was and surprised her with the flowers. She loved them. We sat and enjoyed our lunch together before leaving the theme park. We continued our relationship, and everything was going great.

there was a full time opening at my position a few months back. i applied for it along with several others. after a grueling process, i was granted the promotion.

i have been working at my job for over 3 years now. 5 months ago there was an opening for a full time position doing what i was doing part time. i decided to apply for the position as did several other members from my current team. this was a big event because benefits are great here and so full time spots are very rare and competitive when they do open up. I worked on my resume and case for weeks on end to ensure i had the best chance of getting the position. i got into a few spats with coworkers about who should be promoted as well. this caused a lot of tension among us and made actual work tough for nearly a month. we had a first wave of interviews that knocked out half of the applicants. this made things even worse as some longer tenured employees were not pushed through to the second round of interviews. i was lucky enough to be pushed through myself. after the second round, we had two days where we did not know who had won the position. this was also stressful for us and put more tension on the office and all of us personally, as it was a life changing event for anyone who won the spot due to the salary and our life trajectories. after a few days, my manager called me into his office and informed me that i had won the position. this was a surprise to me as i thought other members were favored over me and would get the position. i was ecstatic to win the spot, as my salary more than doubled and i got great benefits. despite the stresses i was very happy with the situation.
