Linda down by his own doorstep His wife answered him and looked at the sack. “What have you got there?” she asked.
“It’s a girl with a loud voice,” the old man said. “She was shouting my name and disturbing me. I’m going to teach her a lesson.”
He opened the sack and pulled out Linda, who was still screaming. The old man’s wife gasped. “She’s only a child!” she said. “You can’t do this to her!”
“I can and I will,” the old man said. “She needs to learn some manners. Come on, girl, into the cellar with you!”
He dragged Linda to the cellar door and threw her inside. He locked the door and left her in the dark. Linda was terrified. She had never been in such a place before. She felt cold and damp and heard strange noises. She wished she had never shouted at the old man. She wished she could go back home. She wondered if anyone would ever find her. She cried and cried until she had no voice left.This is how I would write the next part of the story:
Meanwhile, Jeffrey, the boy next door, had heard Linda’s voice when she was shouting his name. He was curious to see what she wanted. He ran out of his house and saw the old man carrying a sack across the field. He wondered what was in it. He decided to follow him.

The milkman he is a kind hearted milkman who liked Linda
Linda looked up and saw Jeffrey’s face. She was overjoyed. She ran to the window and said, “Jeffrey, thank goodness you’re here. Please get me out of here. The old man is very mean. He locked me up because I shouted his name.”
“Don’t worry, Linda. I’ll get you out of here. Just wait a minute,” Jeffrey said. He looked for something to break the window. He found a big stone and threw it at the window. The glass shattered and made a loud noise. Jeffrey reached inside and helped Linda climb out. They ran away from the house as fast as they could.
The old man and his wife heard the noise and came out of the house. They saw Jeffrey and Linda running away. They were furious. They shouted, “Stop! Come back here! You little rascals!”
But Jeffrey and Linda did not stop. They ran all the way to Linda’s house and told her parents what had happened. Linda’s parents were shocked and angry. They called the police and reported the old man. The police came and arrested the old man and his wife. They thanked Jeffrey for saving Linda. They praised him for his bravery and cleverness.
Linda was very grateful to Jeffrey. She hugged him and said, “Thank you, Jeffrey. You are my hero. You saved my life. I’m sorry I shouted at you. I promise I won’t do it again.” just then the old mans brother
