In this task, you're given the middle and ending of a three-part story. Your job is to complete the short story by writing a probable beginning of the story. Generated sentences must be short, have fewer than 10 words, and be simple as if narrating to a child. Avoid using any irrelevant extra information when creating the beginning, and use names (e.g. Jack, Barbara,...) instead of pronouns (e.g. he / she) wherever possible.

Example Input: Middle: Mike spilled his entire soda on his shirt right before his big date. Ending: his date was a disaster anyways and he laughed about it all.
Example Output: Mike bought some soda at the store in the summer.

Example Input: Middle: I surprised my dad with it as soon as I came home. Ending: I doused him good, getting a two week grounding in return.
Example Output: As a little kid I saved up money to buy a huge water cannon.

Example Input: Middle: Charles family use to make him cake every year until he told them he likes pudding better. Ending: Now he gets pudding instead of cake every year.
