JAKE'S STORY

The teacher’s messy surprise. Part I.

 

Once upon a time, the English teacher was teaching in 1º ESO C. She said, “It’s my birthday today”. She thought that everyone had forgotten. Later on, the class 1ºC arranged a party. That night the teacher went to the car park outside, when suddenly everyone jumped up and shouted, “Surprise! Happy Birthday!”. She was astonished. But meanwhile, some horrible goblins were planning to wreck the party. They chewed some wires and the lights went off. The school were confused, “What happened?”, said the English teacher. The goblins climbed up the drains and went around tying everyone’s shoes laces. When the light went back on, everyone fell over. Jake said, “This is all wrong…What’s happening?” The goblins climbed up the drains and followed the English teacher to the “cafeteria”. They got cans of coke, shook them and put them back. The teacher took them all and gave one to everyone, but when they opened them, “SPLASH!!! SPLISHH!!! SHLISH!!...

 

The teacher’s messy surprise. Part II.

 

The English teacher went home and went to bed.

“This is the worst birthday ever”, she moaned. “But it wasn’t the kids’ fault, they did try, but my birthday’s wrecked”. The next morning she woke up and was happy because it was now the school holidays, because it’s summer. “Three months of peace and quiet”. She said relieved. But the scary thing was every day of the summer. She had lots of bad luck; she broke mirrors, crashed into cars, broke her leg, burned the kitchen. But she didn’t know why she couldn’t help it. Time went by too quickly and before she knew it, it was school again. “Morning!”, shouted. 2º C (who used to be 1º C). “How was your holiday?”, asked Jake. “It was great Jake, thank you for asking”, she lied. She didn’t want to let them know. But Jake was lying too because he had the same bad luck as the English teacher. At break, Jake walked over to the English teacher and said, “I can tell by your face it was bad”. “How?”, asked the teacher. “Because you look worried. The same thing happened to me”. “You know what it feels like then”, said the teacher. DING! Struck the bell to warn that break was over. When school finished, Jake went home, but he found… (what will happen to Jake?) Find out in part 3.

 

The teacher’s messy surprise. Part III.

 

            Noooo!!! His house was on fire burning so quickly. Jake run up to the house and shouted “MUM! DAD!” But nobody replied. He ran into the house. The top floor was burning, but not the bottom (yet) The flames burning and scaring his face. His mum and dad weren’t on the bottom floor so he ran upstairs. The heat was so hot that he felt like he was in the sun. He couldn’t go on, the flames blocked his path, “Oh, no, the boiler is on the stairs. If the flames reach it, the house will blow up”. He ran downstairs but got a feeling he had to go to the kitchen. He ran in and grabbed the money hidden in the back of the cupboard, he couldn’t help it. He ran outside and the house just blew up. BAAAAANNNNNNNNGGGGG!!! The fire station came and tried to put down the fire, two ambulances came and three police cars. They took Jake into the ambulance. –“AAAAHHHHHHHHH!”-, “Jake, Jake, you are in hospital, are you alright baby?”, said someone softly. He recognised that voice was his mum’s. “Mum, I thought you were in the house and I…” “Shhhhh! It’s alright, Jake you’re alright”. “Where is dad?”, said Jake weakly, “He’s gone, Jake, to another place”, cried his mum. “Nooo! Dad! What happened!” “He got stuck in the fire, the firemen were too late”
