Michelle left the house to meet up with several friends at the shopping center.
She skipped along the path, whistling a tune as she made her way there. They
were meeting first for lunch. Michelle suggested that they had pizza for lunch
and everyone cheered in agreement. Pizza was her favorite food. She especially
loved eating the melted cheese on top of it. It would be a delicious and
satisfying lunch. Once everyone had filled their stomachs, they went to the
cinema that was located on the top floor. There was a comedy screening and it
was a unanimous decision to watch that. Despite just having had lunch, Michelle
enjoyed munching on popcorn while watching movies. She shared a box with her
friend. The movie was hilarious and all of them enjoyed it. At certain scenes,
Michelle even laughed until she teared. When the movie was over, they were still
talking about the funny scenes and laughing about them.
Michelle and her friends then went their separate ways to go home. When
Michelle arrived home, she fished in her bag for the house keys. They were
missing. She frowned and poured out all the contents of her bag onto the ground.
Then, she sieved through them but still, the keys were nowhere to be found ! She
must have left them in the house when she went out. To make things worse, her
parents were both at work and would not be home for another two hours. She went
over to her neighbor's house, thinking that if they were home, she could wait
for her parents there. Unfortunately, her neighbors were out too.
With a sigh, Michelle went downstairs to look for a public telephone to call
her mother. She explained her situation to her mother and her mother advised her
to wait at the void deck for her. Michelle had no choice but to do just that.
Luckily, Michelle was someone with the habit of carrying a story book with her
everywhere she went. she went downstairs to read her book while waiting for her
mother to return from work.
After that day, Michelle learnt her lesson. Her mother then attached her
house keys to a lanyard so that it could be hung around Michelle's neck.
Hopefully, in this way, Michelle would not forget her keys again. |
