Clara woke up feeling tired. She checked the time it was 6:30am. Uhh, i feel so tired, wait why don't i wait till 6:35am then I'll use 25 minutes to hurriedly dress up for school she said while covering herself up with her duvet.
"Honie, have you seen Clara this morning or has she fine to school?" Clara's mum, Violet asked her husband,Daniel. "No i haven't seen her and i don't think she has gone to school, i think she hasn't even gotten out up from bed" Mr Daniel said while taking his briefcase to leave. "Honie, are you leaving already?"
"Yeah i have an early schedule today" Mr. Daniel said. "Okay honie, bye have a nice day at work",Mrs Violet said while giving Daniel a peck on his lips.
"Wake up Clara, You're gonna be late for school",Mrs.Violet said while tapping Clara up. "Ugh mum I'm tired why can't i skip school today?" Clara said while covering herself up to her head with the duvet .
"Clara it's 6:35 get up now!" Mrs. Violet said raising her voice a little. "Fine mum you win",Clara said heading to the bathroom to freshen up.She finished bathing and dressed up.
"I'm off mum", Clara said while running out."Wait! won't you eat?" "Mum I'm late!" Clara said and ran out. Clara reached school at exactly 7:25am."why are you late?" the English Teacher asked Clara as she walked in panting heavily. "I'm sorry Sir, there was traffic on the way" Clara lied as she walked to her dext close to her best friend Raymond . Clara was an average student who had to struggle to study to keep average grades. She had a male bestie and 3 other friends, Maria, Derick and Leah. "I know you overslept Raymond said to Clara". "Shut up Clara said while bringing out her note." Immediately she brought it out the bell rang which signified that the English period was over. "Damn" Clara said as she stood up with Raymond as they left the classroom to their lockers. "Hey idiot" Leah who loved to tease Raymond said as she spanked his head. "Stop it" Raymond said. "You guys should stop fooling around we have a problem" Leah the most responsible one among 5 of them said. "What's the problem?" Maria asked. "Where's Derick?" Leah asked looking around, "He's probably gone for math class, bookworm" Clara said . "Math class!!!!!" Clara, Raymond, Leah and Maria shouted looking around for anybody but unfortunately they were the only ones not in math class. "It is all your fault" Maria said to Raymond. "Me? How is it my fault?" Raymond asked no one in particular. "Guys let's just take our books and sneak into math class hopefully Uncle Gabriel won't notice us cos if he does we're gonna be roasted in detention as we're already 15 minutes late" Leah said. "Good idea," Maria said eyeing Raymond, the four of them left the locker room. As they approached the classroom they saw the teacher writing on the board, the four of them sneaked in to their seats but unfortunately as Raymond was about to seat down the teacher saw him.......
