Dear Oséias
I’m writing to tell you about something that happened yesterday. I got up at the usual
time – about 10 am – took a shower and had breakfast. I ate a big bowl of cereal and
some toast and watched TV for a while. Then I went into the kitchen where I heard a
funny noise. I thought it was from behind the cooker. I took my tool box and moved the
cooker out of the way. The noise was louder but I couldn’t see anything. I rang my uncle
to ask his advice. He said that he thought it could be a gas leak. When I heard this I
just panicked! I took the phone down, went outside, got in my car and drove to the local
police station. I told them about my gas leak but the constable lost his patience with me.
He said that I should have phoned the gas company. He wrote his report, then rang the
gas company for me. Then I remembered that my house doesn’t have gas – only
electricity! I felt really stupid and thought that the constable would be angry with me for
wasting his time, so I went out of the police station while he was still on the phone. I
went/ran home to try to find out what the noise was. On the way I bought a newspaper
and I read about an escaped llama that ran out of the city safari park last Wednesday.
When I was home I put my key in the door, turned it, went inside and
straigh away heart that funny noise again. I held my breath and opened
the door slowly. Guess what? I found the llama hiding in my cupboard! I
let him stay and he slept in my garden last night. The snoring was so
loud! This morning I took him back to the safari park. They were really
pleased to see him again and gave me a reward of $50!.
Hope you are well. Write soon and let me know how you are.
Your friend,
Jason.
