It was a cool and breezy morning. All the pupils were having their lessons when suddenly, Mr Lim, the principal announced over the speaker.
" All children please come to the hall for the Teacher's Day Concert. All performers please go to the hall now and bring your costumes along. Thank you. " The speaker gave a screeching sound and there was silence. All the pupils shouted with excitement. They lined up orderly outside their classrooms and they started walking towards the hall, with the teacher leading them. Jane and Mary were part of the performers. They quickly grabbed their costumes from their bags and raced down the stairs to the hall. When they reached the hall, they noticed that the had changed. There were streamers and balloons hung at the side of the hall. There, they changed into their costumes. Their teacher gave the performers a last minute rehearsal and they were ready. When it was their turn to perform, Jane and Mary stepped nervously onto the stage. They performed quite well, except when they were performing the last act, the two dancers knocked into each other. They lay on the floor, trying to get up. They felt dizzy. The audience suddenly burst into laughter. They pointed and jeered at them. A few teachers saw what had happened and immediately rushed to the stage to help them up. They asked if they were all right. The two dancers nodded briefly. The teachers helped them up and carried them to the sick bay. Jane reached up and touched her head. It felt cold. The teachers had put a bag of ice at the swollen part of the head. She reached up to touch it. " Ouch ! " she shouted. Beside her, Mary was lying on a bed, but she was not asleep. They apologized to each other and talked about what would their classmates say of them tomorrow. The next day, when Mary and Jane arrived in school, their classmates started to whisper to each other and they were laughing. They knew that their classmtes were talking about them. Their faces turned as red as a lobster. It was an embarrassing experience for them! posted by Vivian at Wednesday, August 22, 2007
