Theme: You're late
for school because you overslept, but your teacher hates over-sleepers. He does
love entertaining stories, so create the most outlandish excuse as to why you
were late.
“But Mr. Pumpernickel! You don’t understand!” Mahsa cried.
“Oh really?” Mr. Pumpernickel sneered down at her. He knew
very well that Mahsa had a horrible habit of oversleeping. A habit he hated and
very much resented the teen for. “Then let’s hear you’re excuse for being late
today?”
The gears in Mahsa’s head started turning as the story began
to weave itself. “I left my house on time this morning, but on my way here
there was a car accident!” she began. Mr. Pumpernickel leaned back in his chair
as he listened. He did love a good story. “I noticed that there was a guy
passed out in his car. The cops hadn’t gotten there yet, so I went to help him.
There was this horrible smell of burnt rubber and smoke coming from his car and
he was just unconscious on his steering wheel.
“I struggled with the driver side door before it popped
opened. I fell backwards and landed on my butt. It’s still sore from the
concrete. I tried to wake the guy up, but he was out like a light so I had to
pull the guy out. He was really heavy.
