A BUMP IN THE NIGHT
Last month two brothers, 16 years old Tom and 18 years old Harry, were on their own at home one
Saturday afternoon. Their parents were on a weekend trip. Tom was bored and wanted to have an adventure.
He wanted Harry to drive their mum’s car to the city. Harry wasn’t happy about it, but he was
bored too, so, in the end, he agreed.
The boys arrived in the city centre, and decided to go to the cinema first. Harry parked the car carefully
outside the cinema. They watched a great film. Then they were hungry. Harry was happier now, so he
stopped at a café, and they ordered a big pizza. After that, Harry wanted to go home, but Tom wanted to
go to the nightclub. Harry wasn’t sure, but again he agreed in the end. He parked the car carefully outside
the biggest nightclub in the city.
Tom and Harry stayed in the nightclub for a long time. It was very late when they walked back to the car.
Then they noticed something terrible. There was a big dent in the back of the car! They hurried home, and
waited until 6:00 a.m. Then they phoned a garage and explained the situation. A mechanic repaired the car,
and the boys parked it outside the house just in time! A few minutes later their parents returned home.
The boys were too scared to say anything about the accident. But later that day, their mother checked the car.
“Hey! Look at the car!” She shouted. The boys waited nervously. Their mother continued, “I can´t
believe it! A van bumped into my car last Thursday, but now you can´t even see the dent!”
