It's all down to this. I have the first 5 numbers, 2,27,12,3,16. I am hugged up against the TV, staring at the girl in a shiny red dress, the color of cherries staring deep into my soul. Her smile  is so white, they look like snow. Another number rolls out, all I need is a 22. I chant to myself, "22, 22, please oh please give me a 22!" As if it was slow motion, the white ball rolls down and rams into the ball next to it,and to my surprise, the ball reads 22. I jump back from where I was hugging the screen, throwing my fist up in triumph. I couldn't believe it, I won the lottery!
