I need to get to school! I ran down the stairs and picked up my bag and rushed out the door. I fell over and knocked mums’ favourite vase. CRASH!!
Mum ran down and stared at me horrified.
I said sorry and ran out the door. I got on my skateboard and went off down the street.
Just then at that moment, a bird swooped down and knocked me off my skateboard. I got back on my skateboard and kept going until I was at the front gate when I realised I was back at my house. “WHAT!” I thought. How did I get back here?
I must have been going in circles.
I had the feeling today was not going to be like any other day….
