It was April Fool's Day. Victor,
being
a mischievous boy, decided to play a trick
on his teacher,
Miss Williams. He scooped his pet mouse, Snoopy
into
his pocket and took it to school.
In the middle of a science lesson, Victor
let Snoopy
loose. The little creature at once scampered
to the front of
the class. At first,
Miss Williams did not notice the mouse. She was
writing on the blackboard with her
back facing the
class. The mouse, however, decided to announce its
presence by
giving a loud squeak. On hearing the
sound, Miss
Williams turned around.
When
she saw the mouse, she screamed at the
top of her voice
and climbed on her table.
"Who brought this creature here ?" she demanded.
However, no one heard her as the class was roaring
with laughter. Several students even laughed till tears rolled
down
their cheeks. Miss Williams was
not amused.
"If no one
admits to playing this trick, I shall punish the
whole class,"
she declared angrily.
When the class heard this threat, they
stopped
laughing. Everyone looked at Victor, expecting him
to own up.
Victor, however, stared at the floor and did not say
a word. He was a
coward at heart.
