Why I Was Late
It was a Monday.
My alarm went off late.
So I quickly got up got, got dressed and headed to school. On my way I stopped at Brutons to get a pasty.
Yet when I stepped out all was quiet; there wasn't a vehicle or a person to been seen anywhere. I thought I was going crazy, was I walking to school on a Sunday? I was sure my mobile phone said it was Monday.
I carried on walking.
I heard big footsteps from somewhere behind me. I didn't look around because it was kind of scary walking to school on my own.
But I kept walking.
A huge shadow was cast over me. I started walking faster.
Yet I had to sneak a look behind me.
As I turned my head and in the corner of my eye I saw a ginormous kangaroo. I have never ran so fast in my life... and that was why I was late for school on Monday.
