Late for school

I woke up with a terrible headache, with my mom continuously yelling that I'm going to be late for school. I finally managed to get out of bed only to find out that it was raining and I hated rainy day. I hurriedly prepared for school and even skipped breakfast only to arrive at the bus stop to see the bus leaving.

"Young girl, did you just miss your bus; said an old lady standing by me.

"Yes Grandma; I replied

"Here, why don't you pick a cap so that you won't be late for school.

"Thank you very much Grandma; I said knowing very well that I was already late for school. I picked a cap and headed straight for school but by the time I arrived lessons had already started and to welcome me at the front gate was Sir Fendrick.

"Good morning sir"; I greeted with a polite smile but as I thought he saw his way through the smile and started to scold me.

"This is the fourth time you've been late to school Missy; he said with raging anger.

"Yeah, sorry sir I had to take my little sister to school;, I said hoping he would buy my lie.

"For as far as I know, you're an only child; he exclaimed.

"Yeah....... right, sorry forgot, I had to help an old woman cross the street and on my way back I saw a kid who was about to get molded my a huge truck and I had to save him; I answered.

Sir Fendrick stood there for a while with a suspicious look on his face.

"Sir?, I'd please like to go inside, you know it's still raining; I exclaimed standing there holding my umbrella above my head.

"Yeah right, right but before you go, why don't you put down your name on this board, for after all you're now a hero and I'd like to get my autograph before it's too late you know.

I gladly toke the board hoping he bought my lie, only to find the word"DETENTION"written on it.

"Oh come on sir, you're really gonna gimme detention now!; I exclaimed

"And also put down your name so that I'll know the hero to call next time someone else needs saving; he said as I shot him a death glare without him knowing.

"Come on, make it snappy; he said as he clapped his hands twice.

"Yeah, yeah; I exclaimed as I wrote down my name and signature on the board, handed it over to him and went to class.

IMPORTANT NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR

Hi guys, it's your author. This is the first chapter I've written so far I'll like to hear your reviews on my new novel. The purpose for this novel is that, I've seen soo many people facing difficulties in maths and still are. This makes them grow hatred for the subject. So my soul aim or purpose of writing this novel, is to educate, entertain, relax and to show people the wonderful side of mathematics and that it's a subject not to be hated but a subject that deserves much patience, attention and understanding when solving. I hope this can help encourage all those who have lost hope in mathematics, not to give up but to keep on pushing hard and there's also fun in solving mathematics when you give it a chance to know it better. I hope this helped, Enjoy 😊😉👍
