Nick gets up in the morning. It is seven forty. He can’t be late for school again. He jumps off the bed and puts on his clothes in a hurry. He does not wash his face. He does not check his bag. He does not even have breakfast. He runs to school all the way.
The school gate is locked. “Oh, I’m too late.”
But there’s no one in the school. Oh, it is Saturday today!
