Tommy was in a rush. Grabbing his school bag and
file, he kissed his mother goodbye and headed
straight for the door. His father looked up from
the newspaper and said, "Better bring an
umbrella with you. It says here there's going to
be showers in the afternoon." Tommy looked at
the sky. It was clear blue with no clouds in
sight." "Not today," he thought to himself. He
went straight out without heeding his father's
words. He had a good day in school. He managed
to finish all his school work which wasn't
normally the case. He had a good game of
football during recess. So, by dismissal time,
he was in a good mood.
On the way home, the sky started to darken
and thunder rumbled. Without warning, heavy
drops of rain fell and totally drenched him. He
tried to make a dash for it and ran all the way
home. By the time he reached his doorstep, he
was soaked to his skin. His mother looked at him
and said, "You should have listened to your
father." |
