STORY:

There was a girl named Roselyn. Her story begins with the book. One day she was reading her Science book. She turned the pages.

In the bedroom Roselyn and her mother was busy packing for the big trip. She said to her mother “When is the flight leaving?” Her mother replied “9:00” She put her dress in the suitcase. She asked her mother “How will all these contain in the suitcase?” Her mother replied “We always carry a hand luggage”. Roslyn went to get the hand luggage “Is it this one?” She asked. Her mother replied “Yes certainly” They continue packing. Her mother hinted “First thing in the morning we will call the cab”

Roslyn is just leaving her school while a boy bumped into her. His name was Adrian. He said “It’s good to be back” She replied “Yes it is”. She walks along the school corridor and into the car parking lot. She drives off. While driving, she makes a call to her mother “Hi, It will be right there” She said. Her mother replied “don’t be late”

Back in the bedroom they continue packing. Roselyn handed her mother the vase and she began to put the vase into the suitcase and closed the suitcase. Her mother said “finally we are all ready” She replied “we’re good to go”.

She turned another page of her book. She yawned a little and continued reading.

The cab arrived. They began to load everything into the cab. Roselyn first loads the hand luggage. She said “I’ll give you a hand with the suitcases too” Her mother said “no thanks”. She said “I’ll do the second and fifth suitcases”. Her mother said “you’re going to hurt yourself if you don’t listen”.

She reaches the airport in the car. She gets down and goes into the airport.

They get into the cab and continue driving. “I can’t wait till we get there” Roselyn said “how long is it going to take?” She asked. Her mother replied “well let’s see, waiting time at the airport is 3 hours, flying time is 2 and a half hours and ….” She asked impatiently “just tell me the final time”. Her mother replied “around 10 hours” she asked “around?”
