was already shining brightly. I had to be at the bus stop at the
latest 7.15 a.m. to reach school by 7.30 a.m. I rushed to the
bathroom for a quick wash and turned on the tap. There was
no water, it was dry ! However, I managed with a bucket of
water, which my mother had left there the previous night. I
quickly dressed myself up and slipped out of my house
without mother’s knowledge. She would be angry if she knew I
got up late.
I reached the bus stop within five minutes only to find out the
bus had gone a few seconds before. I concluded as there
were no students at the bus stop. I had no choice but to call a
passing taxi. I was lucky to get one and jumped into it. I
cheered up a little bit thinking that I would reach school on
time. When I put my hand in my pocket to pay for the taxi fare,
I was horrified to find the pocket empty. I had no money !
“ What shall I do?” As the taxi stopped at the gate of my
school, I met my form teacher. I explained to him my situation
and he was kind enough to help me pay the fare. I was much
relieved and ran to the class. I regained my spirit when I found
that I had reached school before the bell. I hurried up the
stairs to my class which was on the third floor. When I was on
top of the last staircase, I slipped and fell down, breaking my
arm.
I always remember to set my alarm clock before going to bed
since then.
